Weeks ago it was revealed that Google Maps was working on a function that was going to warn us about how full the train we were waiting for was. This feature is finally official and is starting to launch worldwide. 200 cities can enjoy it, including several Spanish. Thanks to this, it will be known how a train, subway or bus that we are waiting for fully comes.

For this, the information from previous trips to yours will be analyzed. So that the app can tell us if it is very full, allowing us to better plan the trip.

New function in the app

It is officially launched on both Android and iOS. So all Google Maps users will be able to enjoy this function, although it is launched in a limited way in certain cities. In the case of Spain, Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Valencia, Seville, Palma de Mallorca, Malaga, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Granada are the chosen ones. But it should expand in the future.

When we use the app to search for a specific route using public transport, we will see new information. In addition to knowing how fully the train or metro is going, we can also know if there are delays in it, which is another important aspect.

Google Maps is significantly improved with this function, which will allow us to make better use of public transport at all times, preventing us from riding a train that is too full or having to constantly endure delays.
