Google announced that the new version of the Google Maps Android app will now tell you how difficult it is to find parking at your destination. This is based on predictive data, similar to how Google calculates popular times for venues.

Google added this parking difficulty icon for 25 metro areas throughout the U.S. This is aimed at giving you a heads up on how much more time you need to plan to get to your destination, to include time for parking.

Here is a picture that shows you the parking icon in red at the bottom, showing “limited” parking.
