Waze Rolls Out Gemini-Powered Personalization, Quieter Prompts and Motorcycle Mode
Waze announced rolling updates for iOS and Android: Gemini integration to deliver personalized navigation based on your past trips and real-time traffic, with an option to disable it. A new Less Chatty mode reduces voice prompts so you can focus on audio content while still receiving essential navigation cues. Conversational Reporting expands to let you report road changes by talking to local map editors, and Gemini enables voice-based location searches (e.g., finding a coffee shop that's open now). A new motorcycle mode, using AI to account for motorcycle-specific hazards and shortcuts, is also rolling out in select countries with more to come. These features are currently available as global rollouts for the Waze app on both iOS and Android.
