Two platform upgrades

Waze has announced two new features that will be added to the platform.

One is the new Conversational Reporting that will allow users to easily report incidents, including traffic, potholes, construction, and more.

To use this, tap the reporting button and speak naturally, as if you’re just chatting with a friend. This is powered by Gemini capabilities that will allow Waze to understand and quickly add a real-time report to the map.

Waze will also ask follow-up questions when it needs more information or details. The platform can categorize the report, helping other drivers be aware and avoid the hazard.

Conversational Reporting launches in beta to Waze trusted testers globally in English on Android and iOS, with plans to expand to more users and languages in the coming months.

Waze is also adding a feature that makes it easy for map editors to add school zones to the map. This means that when you’re driving near a school and the app has information for that school zone, you’ll receive an alert that reminds you to be extra cautious.

School Zones start rolling out on Android and iOS globally later this year.

What do you think guys?
