Google Maps: Travelling in group will now become easier with family and friends

A new feature is on its way to make co-navigation seamless for multiple drivers.

Google Maps is all set to transform the way people travel in groups with a new feature that aims to make co-navigation seamless for multiple drivers. The new functionality, revealed by a patent uncovered by Igilta and David Kowalski, will allow several vehicles to navigate together in real-time, even if they start from diverse locations.

Group travel becomes seamless with Google Maps.

Google Maps has garnered attention for a probable new feature that can help make group travel seamless for multiple drivers. The new functionality will help make co-navigation effortless as ever. Currently, Google Maps offers navigation and other details to users for only single vehicles.

Co-navigation will streamline the process.

Group travel, especially with different vehicles, has remained a challenge so far, as it makes it harder for people to coordinate. However, the new co-navigation feature promises to address these issues and complexities and streamline the process for families and friends traveling in separate vehicles to reach a common destination by providing real-time coordination and updates.

What are the key features of the upcoming feature?

The primary features of the upcoming Google Maps feature will include the ability to send notifications, suggest optimal meeting points, and share vehicle locations, ensuring all drivers are synchronized and reducing the chances of getting lost or delayed. The system will also help with the latest traffic and road conditions based on the vehicle’s route that is leading to keep everyone else informed.

This is currently only a patent, but the co-navigation feature holds significant promise to enhance group travel convenience and efficiency.
