Turn-by-turn direction app Waze has expanded its features to include real-time gas prices in a new update. Waze will also integrate discounts at participating locations.
Waze boasts 19 million users across iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, Android, and Symbian phone platforms.
The app offers live traffic data and directions. “Crowdsourced entirely from its users, the data makes Waze a far more useful alternative to standalone GPS units,” reports VentureBeat.
By adding gas information to its features, Waze could potentially lure customers from cheap fuel apps such as Gas Buddy and Fuel Finder.
“Waze has also finally added the ability to use waypoints on your trips, allowing you to plot more than one location for a single journey,” notes the post. “The company also has brought its nifty voice control feature to Android phones with this latest update.”
