that brings some new tools to the table, including the ability to check on EV charger availability. The app already showed the location of EV chargers, but not if they were available or not. In other words, it was entirely possible to roll up to a charging station only to find a line of EVs waiting for juice.
The updated tool will soon show "how many chargers will likely be available upon your arrival." This uses a combination of AI wizardry and real-time charger availability to predict how many chargers are likely to be open and ready for use at a particular point in time. Google says this will help users "avoid lines and save time." The charger tracker drops next week, but only via Android Auto and cars with Google built-in. The Explore tab has gotten a revamp, making it easier to find curated lists from local influencers and companies like OpenTable. All you have to do is swipe up to see "trending and popular restaurants, activities and sights near you." The updated Explore tab rolls out this month globally on both Android and iOS.. The AI chatbot will be able to whip up "know before you go" tips before visiting restaurants, hotels, concert venues and other locations of interest. Google says Gemini will be like "having a knowledgeable guide show you the way." We'll have to see how that works out in real life. This AI-powered tips feature is already available for many users in the US on Android and iOS. Finally, reviewers can now change their display names when providing feedback to local businesses. Google says this can be used to review nearby shops with names like "Eager Elf" or "Julia Loves Sweets." Despite the user name change, it'll still be your Google account making the remark, so keep things polite.
