New Delhi: Google Maps in India has got a new safety feature - Stay Safer - that notifies the passenger incase the driver deviates from the mentioned route.
 
“At Google Maps, we have focused on building India-first features to deliver a more relevant and reliable experience for our users. Through our extensive research across India, we found that a lot of people limit their mobility due to safety-related concerns,” said Amanda Bishop, Product Manager, Google Maps.
