Google has improved Gemini, their AI-powered digital assistant so that it can now explore maps automatically "when you ask for directions" or when you request Google Maps navigation. According to reports, when using the instructions "navigate to [place]" or "take me to [x]," the upgrade will initially display a short summary that includes the route, the estimated time and distance, a map, and a link to "directions." Rather than relying on the traditional assistant, Gemini can do this function natively with the Google Maps extension.

Using the Google Maps integration, Gemini will provide a summary of the route, the distance to the destination, and the estimated time of arrival once the user instructs it to travel there. According to information on the official website, users of Android phones may set the Gemini app to immediately begin travel to any location they want.

Users no longer need to touch the send button while using the Gemini app, according to the changelog posted on the Google Play Store. It's anticipated that voice commands would be transmitted automatically.
