Waze to alert drivers to nearby Garmin-tracked cyclists
Cyclists using Garmin LiveTrack on a compatible Edge bike computer or smartwatch can now share their location with nearby Waze drivers through a new opt-in integration from the two companies. The alert appears as a moving icon intended to help drivers spot cyclists and slow down.
The feature sends real-time cycling alerts to Waze users near a participating cyclist. Garmin LiveTrack users can broadcast the dynamic icon while cycling, giving drivers a notice that a cyclist is nearby.
The integration is rolling out now to Waze users on iOS and Android. Participation is opt-in.
