Google Maps has a new feature that will make it easier for you to share your ETA with your family, friends, or other favorite contacts. If you share your location on ride-sharing apps, the principle is similar and your chosen contact can see how long it’ll take for you to get to your destination. The feature is coming to both Android and iOS. Once you start navigating to your destination, tap on the ^ button and then Share trip progress. From there, it’ll let you share your live location, route, and ETA. The update lets you share to third-party apps like Facebook Messenger, Line, WhatsApp, and more so you can reach your contact on their platform of choice. The app will automatically stop sharing your location once you reach your destination. This feature works not just for those who drive but for those who use walking or cycling navigation on the app as well.
