They launch a function to control "if the taxi driver guides you into the city"

Platforms are still testing new features to add to their applications, adding more people using them. That's what Google seems to do with its card service.

According to the specialized forum XDA developers, the Internet giant is working on a version of Google Maps that allows you to activate Alert if the phone detects that your taxi driver has left the fastest route and try to do more kilometers to charge more.

The version of the application displays a new button called "Stay safe", where the user can share the visit with his contacts. In addition, you can activate notifications if the car leaves more than 500 meters from the route established

Although the driver may know different reasons for changing the route, such as a clutter or a cut, people traveling to a city they do not know can: notice if the driver moves away from the road faster reach the destination.

It is unclear whether this security feature will be available in future releases or if it will be enabled for specific markets.

More news in the application

Google Maps has launched a new feature in its Android application, useful for many, but also controversial: warn users of the location of the radars fixed and mobile on the routes by car. The data is provided by the users themselves.

The platform already shows in Argentina the radars in the specified routes, a function that already had applications like Waze, which also belongs to Google, and that Maps had already added in some countries since the beginning of the year in the United States.
