How to do Exit Navigation? Tips and Tricks
To travel safely, you must know how to get where you want to go. It helps you find the exits that will get you to your destination as quickly as possible. For example, if you come to a fork in the road, you should take the first exit on the left. If you know you are getting close to a major intersection, the assistant will tell you how to get to the right exit. On the other hand, you need to pay close attention to what the assistant tells you to do. By doing this, you will make it less likely that you will get confused and miss your exit.
But Exit navigation doesn’t always work, even when you’re at the set location. If you’re driving, walking, or biking to your destination, you can use Google Assistant with Google Maps to get spoken directions. Once you get there, you should probably stop telling people what to do out loud. Here’s how to start and stop navigation on Google Maps by using Google Assistant.
How to start Google Maps by talking to it
Voice commands like “Send a text message” or “Set a timer for 10 minutes” start every Google Assistant task. This control that you can use without using your hands is helpful when you are driving, cooking, or doing something else. Google Assistant can turn off the voice navigation feature in Google Maps.
First, Just say “OK, Google” to get Google Assistant to work.
Say “Exit navigation,” “Stop navigation,” or “Cancel navigation” to stop getting directions.
Say “Mute voice guidance” to turn off voice assistant but keep seeing map instructions.
How to turn off Google Assistant but keep navigation
Say “Mute voice guidance” to stop hearing directions and keep seeing them on the map. This command turns off the voice part of the navigation function, but you will still get directions on your screen.
“Unmute voice guidance” to restore voice guidance.
How to use a voice command on Google Maps
Voice commands start each Google Assistant task, like Sending a text message or Setting a 10-minute timer. This easy-to-use feature is helpful when you’re driving, cooking, or doing other things that require both hands. When you use Google Maps, you can control the Voice Navigation process with Google Assistant. Before giving the command, you must first turn on the Google Assistant by saying “OK, Google.” When the command is understood, the microphone icon in the upper right corner of the navigation screen changes color and lights up. This means the device is ready to receive commands.
