google maps on smartwatch

As long as the device is compatible, users can finally use this feature on their Wear OS-powered smartwatches. Google first mentioned it a few months ago. The new update is accessible if your Wear OS smartwatch supports SIM-supported standalone LTE connectivity, which is required.

Additionally, you must have an LTE plan that provides constant connectivity, a crucial component of turn-by-turn directions. The smartwatch must first be connected to the phone once in order to activate this feature; after that, the remaining activities will begin automatically.

Wearos smartwatch

You can disable the phone mirroring feature from the phone's settings to keep it only available on the smartwatch, even though the feature is accessible on both the phone and the smartwatch (via the phone).

Once your smartwatch satisfies these requirements, open Google Maps on the Wear OS watch, choose your destination, your mode of transportation (using voice commands or a keyboard), and obtain the estimated time of arrival (ETA) for the trip. Once you press the start button, the smartwatch's turn-by-turn navigation feature will operate independently.

Google is also making additional changes to its mobility products, particularly Android Auto, which has recently undergone an upgrade to a new user interface that supports split-screen viewing, allowing you to run both music and navigation on the same screen. Other updated features increase Android Auto's functionality and user-friendliness while the user is on the go.

Apple plans to use Samsung's 48MP 1/2.6-inch ultrawide camera sensor for the iPhone 18 series, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. This marks a shift from Apple's exclusive use of Sony sensors for its iPhones' wide, ultrawide, and telephoto lenses. The iPhone 17, launching in 2025, might be the last to solely feature Sony sensors. While Apple maintains high standards, the impact on camera quality remains uncertain. Samsung, already a supplier of OLED panels for Apple, is reportedly preparing to meet the increased demand for iPhone components. Further details are anticipated as the release approaches.
