Traffic alerts: When navigating along the major highways of metro areas, most GPS devices can give you alerts about traffic delays along your route and ask if you want to reroute.The systems of GPS devices, however, depend on saying specific commands, so they aren’t as conversational as Siri, Google Assistant, or Alexa.
