Waze might soon get lane guidance support

You might not be driving around as much these days, but that doesn't mean your trusty navigation apps aren't working on adding new features. One such app is getting a long-requested feature: lane guidance support. Google's Waze is reportedly getting lane guidance, and it will be testing out the feature first in Israel. We aren't sure which markets will be getting first dibs.

Lane guidance is particularly useful when you're driving down unknown areas where you aren't sure when to switch lanes to make your exit. Lane guidance appears on top of your navigation screen, with markings consistent with what you'd see on road signs. The lane you're supposed to be on will be highlighted on your app. This feature will appear on the screen around 500 meters before you turn on city roads or a kilometre before you exit on highways. Lane guidance will not show up for roundabouts, though.

If you've been waiting for the next iteration of the Galaxy Note and Galaxy Fold series, then you will appreciate this news. Samsung addressed the future of the Galaxy Note20 and Galaxy Fold 2 during its recent Q1 2020 earnings report—although the confirmation is a bit vague.

The company said, "For the second half, amid uncertainties including the possibility of a prolonged pandemic, market competition is forecast to intensify as manufacturers strive to recover from the weakness in the first half. The Company will continue to offer differentiated products in the premium segment with the launch of new foldable and Note models." So, if we believe this statement, we can expect the Galaxy Note20 and Fold 2 to arrive sometime in August. Which device would you be more excited to see?
