California, December 16: There are many commuters who tend to forget their route or when to get down from Bus or misses stop during the train ride. Now to help them in trouble, Google Map has come up with a new feature which will remind the next stop by a push notification. Now, commuters can have a happy journey with good music or a book without tension.

A new feature on Google Maps for Android will keep people on track with departure times, ETAs and a notification that tells when to transfer or get off your bus or train. In addition to that, the user can track his progress along the way just like he can do in driving, walking or biking directions. The feature is also present in IOS version of the app.

When someone is driving or in a cab naturally they become more attentive. But if it comes to public transport, many people lose the track. If someone is new on a route there is high chance of missing the stop. Now, this addition may be tiny but very useful for commuters.

To use the feature, the user has to drop into Google Maps on Android phone, enter the destination, select directions for Transit and tap on the route he or she wants to take. Once someone hits the start button, can embark on a tension free journey.
