Tsveta, a passionate technology enthusiast and accomplished playwright, combines her love for mobile technologies and writing to explore and reveal the transformative power of tech.

that it's launching a big update aimed at simplifying your drive. First up, Google Maps is adding an easy-to-spot"Add stops" button right next to"Start" at the bottom of your screen. Tapping it opens a dedicated"Add stops to your route" sheet, making it easier to plan your stops along the way.Navigating unfamiliar areas full of lanes, exits, and intersections can get tricky fast.

You'll be able to explore your route, see and report weather disruptions, and enjoy the updated arrival guidance starting this week on Android and iOS. Enhanced navigation will begin rolling out next month on both platforms in more than 30 metro areas, with plans to expand to additional locations over time.

As someone who uses Google Maps quite often, I find these new features super helpful, especially the Add Stops option. It used to be a bit tricky and time-consuming to add new stops, which can be really frustrating when you're in a rush.
