Waze is updated with voice commands and other improvements
One of the applications most useful for driving is updated. We are talking about Waze, which is launching a new version on the platform Android with important and interestingnews And they have decided to give it a twist of nut both visually and functionally, achieving an application that is even more agile and faster, and that continues to bet on informing the driver of of any traffic jam and current problem on the road , now with more data and resources.
This is Waze version 3.9.4 for the Android platform , although those responsible for it have also confirmed that it will soon be available on iPhone In this new version the first thing that stands out is the agility that this application has achieved. Something that is especially noticeable when calculate and plan routes and change them And it has managed to optimize its operation in such a way that it is now a 85% more agile and fast, according to those responsible. Quite a detail to take into account in an application where many times you do not have time to take one or another exit on the road. But there is more.
Along with the general operation there are also visual tweaks to its interface Details that make handling more pleasant and comfortable.Among its novelties is the new representation of the traffic jams or traffic jams. And it is that, if despite all the indications to avoid it the driver falls into a traffic jam, now a bar shows your status, progress and time remainingto exit it. An easy-to-read graph showing the level of the traffic jam and the number of minutes the driver is expected to spend there. A good way to avoid despair as much as possible.
In the field of functionality, we must also talk about useful voice messages for the driver. And it is that now Waze not only beeps when changing route, but also indicates it with one of these messages: “let's go via X”. Also related to voice is the option to reply “got it, thanks” to confirm have received an ETA or estimated time of arrival, letting the driver who sent it know that this information is available to know your arrival.
Along with these issues there are also equally useful new features such as assistance in U-turns, which has been improved so as not to lose the location or address of the user, and other general fixes of the application that are usually carried out in updates. Issues that result in a more reliable control and operation of the application and that, in this case, have made it possible to speed up the calculation of routes and the change of these.
In short, a very interesting update for an application that continues to improve in all aspects. A tool that acts as a Community GPS where all users can contribute by reporting problems on the road, of whatever nature. The new version of Waze is now available on Android via Google PlayNo date yet for its arrival on iOS It's completely free.
