Waze has released an update that will now allow EV drivers to add charging stations as destinations, just as the app has done with gas stations for years.
Users can search for charging stations or tap icons on the map, and they can also add charging stops along the way.
It’s not clear what took Waze so long. Google, of which Waze is a subsidiary, has let its Maps users search for charging stations since 2018.

Regardless, the addition is a welcome one if you frequently find yourself turning to Waze to avoid traffic congestion.
