Google promised to incorporate Waze data into Maps in July, over a decade after Mountain View acquired the crowd-sourcing sat-nav platform. The first features finally hit Android Auto.
According to one user on Threads, police reports are now popping up on the vehicle screen, but they don’t say whether it is a speed trap or something else.
The rollout of Waze features to Google Maps and Android Auto is still gradual, and only a few users will see the feature. Google promised it would start with police reports, but other types of publicly sourced incidents will also appear.
There was also mention of Maps on Apple CarPlay, meaning users with iOS devices should also start receiving the reports in their cars. The feature was already available in the Maps mobile app; it is the appearance on Android Auto and Android Automotive that is new.
