Google Maps now notifies you if you are going to arrive at a closed establishment
It is not yet early Wednesday morning, when Google usually launches new versions of its applications However, there has been a new change in the maps, directions and navigation tool. We're talking about Google Maps, which is now smarter by taking into account the details of the user's destination point. Something that will save more than one making the trip in vain when finding that restaurant, bar or establishment closed upon arrivalAn improvement included in the previous update, but only recently discovered.
In this way, in the previous update we saw how Google Maps collects more and more data from the user and establishments to offer them directly in route searches. A specific case is that of the details of car rentals, which show the pickup locations and where the hired car should be left on the map. All this by automatically collecting data from the user's Gmail email account. Now we know that Google Maps is not only focused on the user, but also on the premises and establishments.
In this way, it is now possible to search for a route to a specific destination such as a bar, restaurant, shop or other type of business to find out if it is open or closed according to your public schedule.A detail that was not previously notified to the user. But not only that. This information also extends to the time of making inquiries of how to get step by step to that place. In this way, it will not only take into account the closing time of the establishment, , but also the time it will take the user to reach it, thus calculating whether they will not run into Said premises closed after the trip.
This makes it much more comfortable to use the application, being able to stop worrying about schedules and details. Information that could previously go unnoticed by the user, resulting in unpleasant surprises after making the trip to the premises. Now, a alert window informs the user when planning the route to take if the premises could be closed upon arrival. And not only that. This alert window reports the hours of the establishment, so that there is no doubt about it, and also the estimated hour of Arrival calculated by the application itselfSomething that allows us to corroborate the data and eliminate any kind of doubt about whether it will be worth making the trip or not to find the place closed.
With this Google Maps seeks to solve more user problems, taking advantage of all the information it stores, not only about the streets, addresses or even traffic, which allows you to accurately calculate the time a trip will take, but also public information about the places you want to visit. A feature that will save more than one user when making a trip in vain. This function is already available in the latest version of Google Maps available for Android forfree via Google Play Store
