When you think of the Terminator film franchise, you think of Arnold Schwarzenegger, and when you think of Arnold Schwarzenegger, you think of his iconic voice. You just can't imagine anyone but Schwarzenegger delivering classic lines like, "Hasta la vista, baby" and "I'll be back" in a perfectly cold, staccato, robotic voice fit for the Terminator.

We'll soon be hearing that voice once again when Schwarzenegger reprises his most famous role in the upcoming movie Terminator Genisys, which hits theaters July 1. However, if you want that sweet, sweet Austrian accent to give you turn-by-turn driving directions, all you have to do is download Waze.

You can now use custom voice commands from the Terminator, er, Schwarzenegger, as you get directions from the navigation app, Waze announced Monday. A red-eyed Endoskull symbol modeled after the one found in the Terminator franchise will also be used to represent movie theaters in the app.

The Terminator voice commands can be turned on in the app's settings. When you've got them up and running, you'll be able to hear Schwarzenegger say things like, "I'm looking for Sarah Conner, but we can go to your destination first!" and "In need of a Terminator?  No problemo ... I will join the ride. Let's move!" The app also features recordings of those aforementioned famous lines with new twists ("You have reached your destination ... hasta la vista, baby!" and "Mission accomplished. It has to end here ... I'll be back!"), because how could you not?

Let's just hope the Terminator is as good at giving directions as he is at multi-tasking while driving.
