Disclosure

ze has announced a number of interface improvements new features are on their way to the Android app.

The 4.0 update will finally bring parity to the iOS version with a refreshed UI, quicker access to key features, improved alerts for all those road hazards.

The notification experience looks improved, with a promise of more rapid updates that are easier to spot at a glance. ile the visual overhaul isn’t in keeping with Material Design (which is a little strange since owns ze) it is nonetheless easier on the eyes makes key capabilities st out.

The update isn’t here yet, but ze promises it will soon arrive in the ay Store. ’ll be sure to let you know once it’s here.

y this matters: ze is a great travel aide because of its reliance on crowdsourced traffic data. I’ve found in navigating large, urban areas like s Angeles the San Francisco Bay Area that it can weave through out-of-the-way streets to more quickly get to a destination when the main routes are jammed. Since ze is under the umbrella, I also expect more integration with Maps for the Android app to start getting the goods at the same time as the iOS app.
