These Five New Waze Features Are Rolling Out Right Now ...Middle East

News by : (Live Hacker) -

If you ride a motorcycle and you don't use Waze, you might want to give it a try. One of the app's newest features is "motorcycle mode," which uses AI to optimize directions for shortcuts and restrictions that might apply to motorcyclists. The new feature should also surface reports of driving conditions that are especially problematic for riders, like potholes, raised crosswalks, speed bumps, tight bridges, and shoulders that come to a quick close.

New personalized navigation feature

Waze has another new feature designed to incentivize you to use the app more. As of today, Waze will suggest new routes based on your previous driving history—taking into account its own algorithmic recommendations, as well. If you tend to skip highways in favor of backroads, or vice versa, Waze will supposedly take that into consideration, and should start suggesting routes that align with your preferred driving style.

"Less chatty" mode might not be the most eloquent name, but it's certainly accurate. The new feature reduces the voice prompts that may interrupt your music or podcasts—and when they do interrupt, Waze tries to shorten them. The company says you'll receive the usual "critical reminders" for things like hazards, turns, and lane changes, but only when necessary.

Conversational Reporting supports casual map updates

Waze's "Conversational Reporting" feature lets you report things like traffic slowdowns with your voice. The idea is to report these things hands-free, so you don't have to worry about fiddling with the app to issue updates. That support is now going a bit further, as you can now send map updates with your voice.

Use Gemini to find your destination

Waze is a Google product, so it shouldn't be surprising that the company builds in some Gemini integrations. Now, the company is testing Gemini integration in search: If you opt into testing, you can use Gemini to search for things like "find me a coffee shop that is currently open," "find me parking close to this restaurant," or "find the gas station with the lowest prices in my area." As with all AI products, I'll have to see how this one performs before I can say for sure how useful it is.

Again, this feature is in testing, which means you'll need to enroll in the Waze beta on either iOS or Android to try it out. If you're willing to become a beta tester, however, you'll be able to trial it today.
