First of all, people who use public transportation need your feedback. Good News! When the phone is away, you can do everything like single-route bus, train, or ferry journeys directly from your Wear OS smartwatch. Just recently Google Maps added an advanced update that enables people to plan routes using public modes of transportation.
Imagine: You have to reach the office on time but you don’t know which bus service will take you there. Should be a preferred option. Simply activate your smartwatch’s Google Maps, input the vacation spot, and the brand new “Transit” option may be next to the existing “Driving,” “Walking,” and “Cycling” options. You can also see how long it’s going to take for your bus to reach and ensure you’ll be on time.
Now there will be no need to call here and there for investigation. Look at the clock and see the upcoming stops as the map is zoomed out. Need a closer look? One moment, it’s just a tap. You already have a map and turn-by-turn guide showing you the details. The logo or call to action button is easily accessible allowing one to go back to the main navigation menu.
These types of actions are already tied to things in Wear OS tiles that you can set for quick navigation from home to work and from home to work. It’s important to mention that it syncs fully with the Google Wallet app, so it’s possible to store your transit passes on your wrist.
Come, put down your phone, and enjoy the latest hands-free mobility feature on your Wear OS smartwatch with Google Maps. Currently, this feature is being rolled out, allowing you to enjoy a comfortable journey to your destination.
