Waymo has introduced a new feature in its robotaxi service that lets passengers link their Spotify accounts through the Waymo app. This update is currently available for riders in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Phoenix, aiming to improve the in-car entertainment experience during autonomous trips.
Users can activate the feature by updating their app and navigating to the account settings to connect their Spotify profiles. Once linked, passengers gain access to Spotify’s library through the car’s touchscreen interface or by scanning a QR code on the display. There’s also an equalizer function that allows riders to fine-tune the audio settings for better sound quality.
This collaboration between Waymo and Spotify marks a step forward in enhancing passenger comfort and personalization in autonomous rides, providing a more enjoyable and engaging journey for users of the robotaxi service.
