Table of contents:
Yes, you read it right. Waze can turn your utility vehicle into the Batmobile At least when it comes to GPS, of course. And it is that this application capable of guiding you along any road with information on everything that happens on the road in real time has launched a campaign of superheroes. As well as a super villain. DC Comics can take ownership of your drive and shake things up on your commute or commute via Waze. You just have to follow these steps.
Batman or Riddler?
This is not the first time that Waze has opted to customize things a bit in its application Years ago it did it with Terminator and also with Star Wars, and now it seems that Batman is the protagonist. But he does not come alone. He is accompanied by the villain Enigma. Two options to do a little different about directions, routes and GPS guides while you're driving.
How to use the voice of C3PO from Star Wars in Waze
On this occasion Waze, by the hand of DC, proposes you to be the detective of the most famous crime novel in history, that is to say Batman , or be the villain Enigma This will change the appearance of the arrow that until now represents your car. But also the voice of the indications. Of course, these voices are in English, Latin American Spanish, Portuguese and other multitudinous languages. The Spanish of Spain has been left out.
Keep in mind that this campaign, like those that have already taken place on other occasions, is temporary. It will be available only until October 31. All this to celebrate Batman Day or Batman Day that will take place on September 19.
How to activate Batman mode in Waze
The process is simple and leads directly to the main menu of the application. Just open Waze and display the side menu with the magnifying glass icon. Here at the bottom you'll see the option to drive like Batman, highlighted with a new title. Of course, if you choose this option it will no longer appear in this menu, so if you do not select any option you will have to manually modify the parameters to apply these changes. Wow, better if you do it the first time.
When you click on this option you will see a new window that invites you to choose a side. Either the good guy from Batman or the bad guy from Enigma. Plus you'll get three Waze features to customize your driving experience. Namely:
- Icon: This is the triangle icon that represents your car. You can choose between the classic Batman Batmobile or the Enigma car. Both well represented in aesthetics and color, following the characters from the comics that everyone already knows.
- Wazers: there are also new Mood designs or states so that other wazers or drivers can also see your personalized profile. In the same way, you can choose between Batman and Enigma, making it clear to other users of the application who you support.
- Voces: here is the real key to this campaign, even if it is not so enjoyable in Spain.And it is that Waze and DC comics have brought the English voices of Batman (Kevin Conroy) and Enigma (Wally Wingert) to guide us in each indication. They have also done it in other languages, such as Latin American Spanish. But in Spanish from Spain we ran out of adapted voices. So if we want to continue understanding the indications we must stay with Penélope or the other options.
You can customize all or just some of these features to your liking. Of course, if you do not do it on this special screen you will have to do it manually: going through the different navigation and sound sections in Waze sounds. And who do you support?
