Waze, the popular socially focused navigation app acquired by Google in 2013, has released its first major app update since they folded the mapping company into Google.
The new features focus on less clicks, easier navigation, better battery consumption and improved reporting and sharing. The new version of Waze 4.0 is currently only available for iOS but the Android version is reportedly coming soon.
Here is a punch list of new features:
- Significantly reduced battery consumption.
- Fewer taps to start a drive, send locations and directions.
- New ETA panel organizes everything you need in one place. View reports, check alternate routes, add a stop on the way, or instantly send ETA to friends and family.
- The new map is easier to read with a cleaner look catered to your drive.
- It’s easier to help others on the road with a faster, more visual reporting menu.
- Reports and alerts are color-coded so you can instantly recognize them on the map.
- Smart reminders to leave on time for your Calendar events based on traffic conditions and drive times.
