Google Maps just got better at helping you avoid traffic. Similar to Google's "popular times" feature for avoiding lines,Series Archives the new update for the Google Maps Android app shows when there’s likely to be traffic to a specific destination.
SEE ALSO: Guy fools Google and Apple Maps into naming a road after himNow, when you search for directions, the app will show a small graph. A dashed line shows the average time the route typically takes, while the bars underneath indicate how long the same route will take over the next couple hours.

It appears to be Android only for now, but Google often rolls out new features to Android first, so don't be surprised if it pops up in the iOS app in the future. We've reached out to Google for more info and will update if we hear back.
