Navigation Commands

The result of a navigation command to Google Assistant can differ depending on the wording of the command, even for the same destination.

The three possible outcomes are summarized below.

Google Assistant suggests an item from a list of destinations

A list of relevant destinations is displayed on Google Maps and Google Assistant starts suggesting a destination from the top of the list. Replying “Yes” to this prompt starts navigation towards it, while replying “No” causes Google Assistant to suggest the next item on the list.

Go to (location category/brand/location name)

  • Go to a [destination]

  • Go to [destination]

  • Navigate to a [destination]

  • I want to go to a [destination]

Navigation towards the destination begins immediately

Google Assistant replies to the command and starts towards the destination location immediately.

Go to the nearest (location category/brand/location name)

  • Go to the nearest [destination]

  • Navigate to the closest [destination]

  • Go to [destination name]

The route towards the destination is displayed

Google Assistant replies to the command and displays a route to the destination location. Navigation can be started by operating Google Maps on the screen.

I want to go to the nearest (location category/brand/location name)

  • I want to go to the nearest [destination]

  • I want to go to [destination name]
