Tryonestep: Google has added at least 250 new features to the map since the coronavirus caused a worldwide panic. This is exactly what the company is claiming. More importantly, Covid has added a number of Covid-related features to Google Maps, keeping in mind the day-to-day movement of its users.
The tech giant recently updated the Covid layer to Google Maps. In both Android and iOS, the Covid Layer has been updated with additional information. From now on, with this new feature, users will be able to know how many corona-infected patients there are in any one region at a given time. Google is working with local authorities to make this impossible. This allows a customer to get an idea of the corona infection before traveling to a particular place.
Not only that. From now on, Google Map will also provide information on how much congestion there is in local transport. This means that Google Maps will provide you with information on how crowded your train-bus or subway line is with the new feature. This real-time information is expected to be very convenient for users during the Corona period. Because if there is an extra crowd on the bus or train that you travel every day, you can know the information in advance and take another route of travel.
Google Map users in the US, Canada, Germany, Australia, Brazil and India are already able to place delivery orders, according to live status. This new feature on Google Maps also lets customers know how long they have to wait for a delivery and how much to pay for that delivery. This feature is only available to customers who order or book something from Android or iOS with the help of Google Map. In addition, Google is going to add the issue of reserving a seat in a restaurant on Map. This feature will be available in a total of 70 countries.
Meanwhile, the driving mode of Google Assistant has also been introduced in Google Maps in the United States. For now, it has only been launched for Android users. With this feature in English, users can send voice, receive texts from calls, and even review messages. In addition, this feature will alert the user of incoming calls. And through voice command, the user can receive or cut the call if he wants.
At the same time, if you want to listen to podcasts or music from YouTube Music, Spotify, Google Podcasts or various other apps, customers can listen to it on Google Map with the help of voice commands. This feature is completely hands-free keeping in mind the entertainment of the customers while driving. However, the tech giant did not say when the service would be launched in other parts of the world.
