New things are Watch Jukkalan Onlinecoming to Google Maps thanks to Gemini, Google's AI chatbot.
One of the new features is the ability to ask Maps a question and get an answer curated from Gemini.
"Say a friend is visiting, and you need to plan an activity," Google wrote in a blog post about the new features. "Just ask Maps for 'things to do with friends at night' to get ideas curated with Gemini — like checking out a speakeasy or live music. Find out what people like about a place by reading the helpful review summarized with Gemini — especially convenient when you’re pressed for time. If a place catches your eye and you want to learn more about it, like whether it has outdoor seating or a quiet atmosphere, just ask Maps questions to get relevant answers in a snap."
This is one of those features that sounds like it could revolutionize a date night or exploring a new city.
Google is also introducing a way to make driving to your destination easier by exploring places along the way. According to the site's blog, you can navigate to directions and tap "add stops" to discover landmarks, attractions, dining options, and more on your trip. Thus, short drives to the store and long road trips are about to become simpler.
Plus, Google is using Gemini to create "enhanced navigation" that will "show you lanes, crosswalks and road signs clearly on the map. And because no one likes finding out they need to merge at the last minute, we’ll show you exactly which lane you should be in: Just follow the blue line in the lane markers while navigating." You'll even get additional weather information, ideal for a stormy winter.
And once you're at your destination, Google Maps has you covered with additional help finding a parking spot.
You'll be able to check out the new features on iOS and Android later this week, after you update the app.
