We’re not sure why it took so long to implement, but Google Maps users can now see Waze’s (arguably superior) crowd-sourced incident report markers on their navigation routes.
We’re not sure why it took so long to implement, but Google Maps users can now see Waze’s (arguably superior) crowd-sourced incident report markers on their navigation routes. Don’t worry, this doesn’t mean a death knell for the Google-owned Waze service, but no doubt, having such rich incident report data on Google Maps could bring new users over from Apple Maps and even Waze.
As part of its promise to improve the incident reporting UI a few months ago, Google is finally rolling out Google Maps and Waze reports from community users across all platforms. This means users will slowly begin to see these changes on Android, iOS, Android Auto, Android Automotive, and Apple CarPlay.
