Aren't we all bored of hearing the lady who guides us on our navigation app while we're navigating on the road? Well, get ready for a deep and soothing voice to take over your navigation. Turns out Morgan Freeman will now lend his dusky talent to Google's navigation app Waze, as a GPS navigation voice, and will help us get to our destination!This move is an attempt to promote his new movie, London Has Fallen, in which he plays the Vice President of the United States, some of his sound bites will include, "the time has arrived, President Wazer. The world awaits your commands", "the American people are counting on you… to drive. Let’s go" and "you’ve arrived. It’s been my honor and duty to see you through this mission", points out The Next Web. Sadly, the new feature will only be available in the US.In addition, this feature will only be available for a limited time and the company has not shared any information as to when one will be lucky enough to have his voice accompany you while driving to work. In the past, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Stephen Colbert have lend their voices for this app as well. Users can head to Settings in the app, then Sound > Voice Language > Morgan Freeman.
