If the Apple company wants to do better than Google regarding navigation, it will have to make a big effort. During the last years,Apple Plan seemed to regain groundto users. But some may turn to Google Maps given the frequent improvements it benefits from.
After launching5 features that use artificial intelligence, Google continues to evolve its navigation application. Today we present to youthe three new features that the application will benefit fromon the occasion of the end of year celebrations.
1 — Improvement of public transport routes
The navigation application now allows you to obtainmore information on routes taken by public transport.This includes the expected time of arrival, the number of connections as well as the duration of the trip. It is also possible to adjust our routes as we wish by filtering the type of public transport we would like to use, or if we prefer to make the journey with less walking. Some very practical details have also been added to stations in 80 cities around the world,allowing you to be guided clearly and precisely in these, without having the impression of being lost.
2 — Plan and personalize your favorite places lists
Google Map has been making it possible to create lists of favorite places for a while now. These lists can also be shared with a group of people and can help plan a group trip. From now on, each member of the groupcan give their opinion on each place or activity planned in the list, using emojis.
3 — The vomiting emoji, a new fear for restaurateurs?
Many of us have gotten into the habit of checking reviews of a place before going there. As of today, it ispossible to react to photos, videos and reviews thanks once again to emojis. This feature should not appeal to restaurateurs, who are often victims of false reviews from competitors.
The Google Map application continues to improve, let's wait and see if Apple reacts to all these new features.
