Wazeis one of my favoritenavigation appsto use withApple CarPlay. It’s saved me countless times when traffic has piled up during my drive home, and now the app is introducing a new feature to itsCarPlay experiencethat will make your daily commute much more seamless.
With its latest update, Waze has added a quick navigation button to its CarPlay experience that instantly launches navigation mode to your home or work address with just one tap (viaAutoEvolution). You can find the new button on the right side of the interface, above the search icon when navigation isn’t active. The quick navigation button is also intelligent. Since Waze learns from your driving habits, it can identify where you drive and the times you typically do so.
This means that when you tap the quick navigation button at a time when you’re usually driving to work, it will automatically start navigation to your work address. The same applies when you’re heading home at the end of the day. This new feature definitely makes it easier to hop in the car and go when you’re in a rush, saving you from having to tap multiple times to set your destination.
Waze is a popular navigation app available on iOS and Android devices. You can get real-time traffic updates and road alerts to help make your commute as smooth as possible.
