Google Maps for Android adds a shortcut to the state of the … – Wwwhat’s new? (blog)

google-maps

As you know, frequently I talked about the updates of Google Maps, the popular mapping application Google. On this occasion we have called attention to an improvement that has just come to the Android version. As echo from the Android Police, the next version will have a direct access to the state of the traffic, so that we can consult this information quickly and easily.

Google’s goal with this new feature (available in version 9.39 stored in the application) is to show all those roads that suffer from excessive traffic in a given time. In this way, we will be able to decide what path to take to reach our destination. Of course, Google Maps already allows us to query the status of the traffic from a long time ago, the difference is that this new function allows us to do this without having to enter a destination previously, which greatly facilitates the process.

as they echo from Android Police, it is possible to add the widget in our smartphone to take us directly to the status screen of the traffic, saving us several clicks. Without a doubt, it is a feature of what is most interesting for all those who consult Google Maps before you take the car. Despite their usefulness, at the moment only available in Android, although the most probable is that it does not take too long to get to iOS.
