Google Maps launches this new feature through Android Auto

At Google they don't sit idly by with their projects. And although progress sometimes stumbles, the services and tools that reach users must be improved. This is the case of Android Auto, which in its latest update has brought both the management of notifications and an important bug that prevents taking calls from the buttons on the steering wheel . But what's interesting is that, without saying anything, Google has slowly introduced another feature that you may not have realized yet.

And, finally, the speedometer or speed warnings come to Android Auto through Google Maps. A feature that helps us to know the maximum speed at which we can drive along the route that is marked on the screen. Very useful to know at all times if you are going too fast on the type of road you are driving on. But yes, at the moment Google is launching it gradually.

An old function

Speed ​​limits are a type of sign that Google Maps already introduced some time ago However, and as usual with this company, the feature was slow to spread around the world. And it is that it is the best formula to avoid errors and problems. Thus, if during the deployment of this function something goes wrong, they can always cut in time and prevent more users from running into that error. Something that has made this limit appear and disappear almost randomly from users' mobiles.

However, just because a feature is available on Google Maps doesn't mean it's also displayed via Android Auto That is, on the dashboard screen of your car. Even when you use Google Maps to guide you and not Waze. And this is what happened until now with the information on the speed limit of the roads on which you circulate.

But Reddit users have reported that this has changed. Now, and without prior notice or configuration, these notices have begun to appear on the dashboard. But not only that, since we knew that Google was testing the function within the United States. Also from other parts of the world have started to see these signs in the lower right corner of the screen.

Apparently it is one more step in the deployment of this function, which is arriving without users having to activate anything at all.Just be patient and have your devices updated so that, when Google decides, this information also appears on the screen.
