Muscat – Google has activated the voice navigation in its Google Maps for Oman.
According to Techonefive, This activation of the Google navigation system for Oman came after many rounds of discussions that lasted more than a year between Google, local authorities and the Ministry of Tourism.
Motorists of Muscat, have welcomed this move as it will make the navigation in the city easier, especially for tourists and places that are not very familiar.
“Lots of people recently shifted to the Waze navigation app (also owned by Google), because it supports voice and multiple options in terms of routes to reach a particular destination.”
Google navigation will also benefit delivery services and on-demand taxis that depend a lot on the maps to reach destinations of their clients and customers.
