From CNET: If you're an Android user with a trip coming up, there's a new feature worth checking out. Google just unveiled Live Updates, which could make your journey easier. As reported by 9to5Google, a new widget included in the Android 16 update provides real-time updates for your trip -- whether you're traveling by plane, train or car.
