The Google Maps application has many functions, some of which are well hidden and very useful, you can discover a selectionpractical tips in this article.
Here is a new function that Google has just launched initially in the United States and Japan, and which offers detailed voice guidance for the visually impaired when they travel on foot to get from point A to point B.
This feature will constantly remind the user that they are on the right path, the remaining distance until the next turn, or even the traffic on the road they are taking to know if there are people or not , and this in real time.
Although this detailed voice guidance is primarily intended for visually impaired people, it could also be useful for users who want to guide themselves without having their nose glued to the screen.
This new function is initially available in the United States and Japan, in English and Japanese, but it should also arrive in other countries in the future, including France, we hope.
Once this detailed voice guidance is available in Google Maps, it can be activated in the Google Maps app settings, via the Navigation section.
