Rove 1.4 is a ground-up redesign of every screen you touch, built on iOS 26 Liquid Glass. A NEW HOME Pull up the search page and everything is where your thumb expects it. Favorites as big tappable circles — Home, Work, your parked car, your saved places. Recents as swipeable cards with distance and time-ago. Find Nearby for gas, coffee, food, parking, EV charging, groceries and hospitals in one tap. Signature Sights surfaces the landmarks worth knowing about near you. PLACE PAGES, REBUILT Every place now opens into a full card: Directions with a live drive time, Call, Website, and a Parking button that finds spots around the destination. Hours with open/closed status, Good to Know (payments, drive-thru, wheelchair access, outdoor seating), what else is at this address, photos, ratings, and a Details card with everything in one place. Fast Food now means drive-thrus; Restaurants means sit-down. ROUTES LIKE YOU'D EXPECT Compare routes as separate cards with a green Go. Set a departure time and Rove estimates rush-hour traffic for when you'll actually be on the road. Avoid tolls, highways, or ferries in one tap. NAVIGATION, SMOOTHER THAN EVER The puck now rides the route line at 120 Hz on ProMotion iPhones, glides through turns instead of twitching, and floats naturally when you leave the line. Recalculating is faster and smarter: miss an exit onto a frontage road and Rove notices within seconds. Cleaner top banner with one distance, no duplicate "Then" rows, and a proper arrival. PARKING WHILE YOU DRIVE Tap P mid-trip to see parking near your destination — walk time, type, price when known — and reroute in one tap. AND MORE Richer map with far more places visible at neighborhood zoom. Deeper, truer dark mode. Preview any navigation voice before you pick it. Dozens of fixes to route previews, camera framing, and sheet behavior.

This update makes navigation dramatically smoother and gives Rove AI a major upgrade. ROVE AI - Take yourself anywhere by voice. Say "route me to McDonald's" and the route starts in about a second, even on a weak signal - Add stops without touching the screen. Say "add a stop at Starbucks" mid drive and Rove reroutes through it - Ask if a place is open, get the weather at your destination, or share your ETA, all by voice - Ask "tell me about" any landmark and Rove tells you its story as you drive past - The mic now closes the moment you finish talking and responses come back noticeably faster - Your ETA is now spoken naturally, like "about half a mile to go, you'll be there in three minutes" NAVIGATION - The puck now glides smoothly with the road and holds steady through turns - Recalculating after a missed turn keeps the map calm and eases you onto the new route - Smarter GPS filtering keeps you on the road through tunnels, garages, and dense city blocks - The map arrow points exactly where you're heading, even at low speeds CARPLAY - The camera now follows cleanly behind you during turn by turn, just like on iPhone - The map opens to a proper city overview, and one tap on the compass drops you into 3D driving view - Swipe the map naturally with your finger, it glides and stays where you leave it - A brand new location puck that stays readable on any map style, day or night - Trip Actions now lists your stops, lets you remove them, and always has a way back - Tapping a parking spot or search result during navigation adds it to your route instantly - Add Stop now uses the full search page with categories, favorites, and recents - Nearby search now finds places around your car, not where you started - Voice search closes and searches the moment you stop talking - The navigation banner now matches your light or dark appearance BUG FIXES - Fixed the puck twitching during route recalculation - Fixed a route preview appearing after ending a route - Fixed the route line staying on the map after canceling a preview - Fixed the navigation arrow rendering oversized on CarPlay - Additional stability and performance improvements

Rove Maps 1.3 reimagines search, brings a real AI copilot to every drive, and ships proactive parking. The biggest update yet. Voice AI in the Seat. Tap the AI orbit on the search bar to talk to Rove directly. Ask things like find me coffee on the way, take me home, what's my ETA, add a stop at the closest pharmacy, switch to Mars Mode, end the route, find my parking. Rove understands and acts. The voice sounds human because it is. Lowers your music when it speaks. Doesn't talk over your podcast. A New Search Experience. The entire search page has been redesigned. Saved Home, Work, and favorite places at the top. Quick category shortcuts for nearby gas, food, parking, coffee, hospitals, EV charging, and groceries. A new hero card invites you to ask Rove anything in plain language. The AI orbit on the search bar opens the voice and chat surface from any screen. Proactive Parking. Parking is now active throughout the app. Tap the P button on the map to see nearby parking options. While driving an active route, Rove offers to find parking near your destination as you get close. Accept and the route updates to the nearest parking. Decline and your original route continues. When you park, Rove can remember exactly where the car is for the walk back. Rich Place Pages. Place pages have been rebuilt with photos, hours, contact info, and background context for thousands of landmarks and points of interest. Every location has a story. Route Preferences. Toggle avoid tolls, avoid highways, and avoid ferries from the directions sheet. Settings apply to every route Rove calculates. Smarter Recalculation. Faster reroutes when you go off the planned path. Adaptive logic prevents repeated reroute loops when you miss multiple turns in a row. Premium Nightdrive Aesthetic. A unified glass design system across every screen. Holiday themes for Christmas, Halloween, Easter, and Thanksgiving. Mars Mode for the days you want to drive across another planet. Hundreds of small refinements throughout. Smoother camera transitions, faster sheets, sharper place pins, and the most polished nightdrive aesthetic to date. Every route, perfected.

v1.2 is live. AI-powered voice navigation, finally. The voice sounds human, not robotic. Lowers your music politely when it speaks. Doesn't talk over your podcast. Traffic lights now appear on your route. Real signal positions. Not dots pretending. Place pages went premium. Photos. Reviews. Wikipedia. Everything you need before you go. Speed limit signs look like real road signs. Brains read shapes faster than text. Mars mode is on. You'll know when you find it. Saved parking, because cars don't always end up where you remember. Routing fails over faster when cell signal blinks. Fewer "where did my route go" moments. Drive smart out there.

Live Traffic A new traffic overlay is available in Driving mode, with color-coded congestion across the route and surrounding roads. Map Modes The map mode picker has been redesigned with Default, Driving, and Satellite views available in a single tap. Improved Search Search now recognizes category words like golf course, mall, hotel, and pharmacy, narrowing results accordingly. Bare brand names continue to show every matching location. City and town labels are now tappable to open an info card directly on the map. Refined Navigation Lane guidance appears closer to each maneuver, matching the timing drivers expect. The direction indicator rotates smoothly through turns. The recenter control automatically appears when the map is panned, and hides when the view returns to your location. Voice Improvements Voice guidance now begins more cleanly on Bluetooth and wireless audio devices, with no clipped first words. Updated Categories More than 30 grocery, pharmacy, and retail brands now display the correct category. Golf courses, country clubs, and driving ranges are recognized as such. City labels open as cities rather than nearby businesses of the same name. Visual Polish The navigation interface has been updated to match the rest of the app, with consistent translucent panels in both light and dark modes. Rove Maps Routing Navigation is now powered by Rove Maps Routing for faster route calculation and more accurate ETAs. Performance and stability improvements throughout.
