Waze is testing a handy-sounding update that will let you report traffic incidents while speaking naturally. With the new feature, you can tap the app’s reporting button and then say what you see, such as, “Looks like there’s a traffic jam up ahead.”

The Google-owned driving app will then use the Gemini AI model to “understand” what you’ve said and create a report. If you make a vague report, like “There’s something on the road,” Waze might ask follow-up questions, like “Can you describe what you see?” Depending on your reply, the app will then use that information to categorize your report.

You can currently only report incidents on Waze by tapping through options within the app, which isn’t always convenient while you’re driving. Waze will roll out voice reporting in beta to “trusted testers” on Android and iOS this week. It’s only available in English for now, but Waze plans to expand it to more users and languages in the “coming months.”

Alongside this update, Waze will also start displaying school zones on the map globally later this year, alerting you to drive more safely in these areas.
