Other Google-developed apps seeing updates today include Google Play Movies (movie and TV purchasing), YouTube, Maps (offline caching of entire cities), Play Books, Street View, and Google Earth (3D rendering). The apps include bug fixes, new features, and other enhancements. They can be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store.
