Overview
- A Discord user known as “winner00” shared a screenshot showing a dynamic travel time displayed directly on the Home suggestion chip.
- The time shown is color-coded in line with Google Maps’ traffic visuals, indicating conditions such as congestion.
- The addition would let users gauge how long it will take to get home without launching full turn-by-turn navigation.
- Android Authority, Dataconomy, and Tom’s Guide reported the finding, though some testers could not reproduce it on their devices.
- The change builds on earlier 2025 updates that surfaced ETAs in the route planner, and Google has not confirmed any wider rollout.
