Google Earth

Landscape mode needs some serious work. The hud takes up like half of the screen, it doesn't hide the notification bar and it even leaves some small black bars on the side. It's a shame because I know it would look beautiful if the app actually filled the whole screen. Furthermore the two-finger 3D navigation gestures don't work as well in landscape mode as in portrait mode. And just as a request I know won't happen: it would be amazing to have the PC flight simulator on mobile as well!

Google Earth is one of my most used and most favourite desktop apps of all time, however on a phone it is not nearly as good, lacking some basic and much used features. The most important of these is the ability to view high res photographs of the Earth at different points in time. While the phone app does have a 'timelapse' feature, it uses very low res pictures and a clunky interface and isn't very useful for most purposes. This is very disappointing and hardly seems worth installing over Maps

Google Earth used to work well, except for street names being shown. Currently, when I click the little street view dude, no blue highlighted roads show up, anywhere for any street. Also, street names and other labels don't show up even when the option to "show all" is turned on. Off or on its just as blank. Google Maps works fine, but I prefer to use Earth. Google maps only when I need directions not for exploring. Did Google disable street view?
