The new feature allows drivers to report road incidents using natural speech, enhancing safety and ease of use.

  • Conversational Reporting is launching in beta to Waze trusted testers globally, supporting English on both Android and iOS.
  • Drivers can now report incidents by speaking naturally, with Waze's Gemini AI interpreting and categorizing the reports.
  • The feature aims to improve user safety by eliminating the need for drivers to navigate menus while on the road.
  • Waze will also start displaying school zones on its maps later this year, alerting drivers to exercise caution in these areas.
  • The updates are part of Waze's ongoing efforts to leverage community input and technology for safer navigation.
