Google Maps has a new live lane guidance feature that uses cameras and AI to see the road and tell you when to change lanes, but it’s limited to the Polestar 4.
Google Maps is easily one of the must-have apps on a mobile phone, whether you’re rocking an Android handset or an iPhone. The app’s main feature is to help you find places and navigate to them, whether it’s by driving, using public transport, or walking, though Google Maps can be used for finding places of interest nearby that match specific criteria. On Tuesday, Google unveiled another useful Google Maps feature that the app see the road and the lanes and provide instructions in real-time to switch lanes so you don’t miss your exit.
Navigation apps like Google Maps already provide information about turns and exits, but it’s up to the driver to ensure they’re following the route and ensure they’re on the right lane for a specific exit. The feature Google introduced on Tuesday will make it even easier for drivers to follow directions, as Google Maps will now provide visual cues to change lanes before you get to your exit.
