Waze Live Map feature now saves directions from desktop to mobile app

Navigation app Waze has recently updated its Live Map feature, allowing users to sync their planned drive from desktop to the mobile app.

The Live Map feature on the web browser allows Waze users to check out traffic conditions, construction block-ups, and other trouble spots before leaving their homes and starting to drive. With the new update, Waze users may now access the saved trip made from the desktop to Waze’s mobile version.

Here’s how to enjoy the new update:

1. Log in the Live Map from the desktop using the QR code on your Waze app.
2. Enter the destination and starting point of your trip.
3. Set the arrival time and then tap “Save to app.”

Should you leave at a later time, a push notification shall be sent to your device as long as push notifications are turned on, telling you when to leave to reach your destination on time. In addition, destinations saved as favorites can be easily accessed by syncing them to and from your phone and computer.

The update also applies to the weekly planning on the Live Map.

The new feature is now available across Android and iOS devices.
