Google Maps Gets Detailed Voice Guidance to Help People with Visual Impairments [Video]



Google has announced a new detailed voice guidance feature in Google Maps to help people with visual impairments.

The feature makes frequent announcements similar to what you might hear at crosswalks or on a bus.

With this feature, I can navigate the streets of Tokyo with more comfort and confidence. As I take my journey, Google Maps proactively lets me know that I’m on the correct route, the distance until my next turn and the direction I’m walking in. As I approach large intersections, I get a heads-up to cross with added caution. And if I accidentally leave my route, I’ll get a spoken notification that I'm being re-routed.
