  • Readandquestion Best Practices (@Readandquestion) reported

    @ZSpezakis @AdamKinzinger Sorry but the usual Waze aren’t working and we are running out of time. Literally out of time. Period.

  • ohitszainab 🫧zainab🫧 (@ohitszainab) reported

    so there’s definitely an issue with apple gps services 😵‍💫 we’ve used 2 phones and 3 different maps (google, apple maps and waze) and it either says no gps or is showing we’re in the middle of the woods

  • vbuberen Volodymyr Buberenko🇺🇦 (@vbuberen) reported

    @PreusslerBerlin One more strange issue with Android Auto is that if you have Battery saver turned on at some point navigation freezes and doesn't update your location till you wake up/unlock your phone. Happens both in Google Maps and Waze, so definitely not something with a specific app.

  • Ant_089 Mr Dlamini (@Ant_089) reported

    Waze wangisiza u Mbongeni. Thought I was gonna be one of those weird guys that chill at the bar all alone drinking, looking like they’re trying to drink their problems away.

  • Frostygresh Brian Frost (@Frostygresh) reported

    @waze fix waze on pixel 6/Android 13 and Android Auto! There are many reports of tracking freezing. Google maps is not affect on the same device.

  • urbrilliant Think before you speak out, Intel goes further. (@urbrilliant) reported

    @AskLyft I just want to say your help support system is the worst they care very little about those who work to make Lyft exist. Also if the problem with the Waze GPS and Lyfts app continues I see a lot of great drivers leaving this platform. Just saying. Not happy!

  • UDOTTRAFFIC UDOT Traffic (@UDOTTRAFFIC) reported

    Driver Alert: Summit County, both directions of I-80 are closed at MP 173 about 3 miles west of Emory due to a crash. Expect delays, closure is expected to last less than one hour. For updates check the UDOT Traffic App or @waze @UtahTrucking @UDOTRegionOne

  • adrianfletcher Adrian Fletcher (@adrianfletcher) reported

    @TeTramaine WAZE - A far more accurate map period, but here in my island barbados, google’s traffic is more accurate, more people use android phones. WAZE could be better like in Trinidad everyone uses it but it isn’t popular here. Apple Maps is WAY behind - no traffic, lots of map issues.

  • SazeracNELA Chuck Taggart 🏳️‍🌈🖖🏻 (@SazeracNELA) reported

    @BradinLA I haven’t had that issue myself. It often saves me time. It’s way better than Waze, which I deleted after the umpteenth time it had me avoid a perfectly good traffic light to make a left turn at a stop sign across three lanes of busy traffic, and were ***** when I complained.

  • DarthPuffMaN Bearded Wonder (@DarthPuffMaN) reported

    @waze Hey no problem. I've been a beta tester in the past. I'll enable debug mode again, and will report when needed.

  • ChereMadeline Chanel DaCosta (@ChereMadeline) reported

    Ofc my Waze app isn’t working right now when I need it the most

  • Theonlyjewelss Jewels (@Theonlyjewelss) reported

    @iDolly_ You need to download Waze and use it. Even if you know where you going just turn it on. That help me, it’ll tell me to slow down LMFAO.

  • jac_siuhaj Jac (@jac_siuhaj) reported

    @aimmariess I used waze a lot but since changes to driving law says nobody can use the phone while driving it became mot as good because drivers can't report road issues. Since then I switched to Google maps

  • dearappauthors dearappauthors (@dearappauthors) reported

    @mytweetontheweb @waze We also need to know if people have left nails, broken glass, tacks or other things to cut through our tires.

  • olivervaIe oliver (@olivervaIe) reported

    working in traffic is interesting because i will be actively reporting on a major crash then check waze and see someone commented "absolute clowns." sir someone is in the hospital

  • PRGIRLL Alicia (@PRGIRLL) reported

    @cwharris773 @sakoiya @queenveej Using waze is the first problem lol….

  • SeanMatthew13 Sean (@SeanMatthew13) reported

    Anyone have trouble connecting to @waze before they start their drives? I always have to use Google maps instead just to find out which turns I need to make first. Then I close Google Maps and use Waze. Been like this for years now.

  • hoxtonrich Rich (@hoxtonrich) reported

    @jimbryant40 @BrendaPuech @AirRoadsHnps Hi Jim. I think the answer is sadly no. Within seconds the camera is on waze & drivers slow down. 5mins after we’ve gone it’s just as bad. ONLY safe design works - that means reducing vehicle numbers & restricting flows. The loud loons need to be forced to change by design.

  • dearappauthors dearappauthors (@dearappauthors) reported

    @mytweetontheweb @waze I don't. But if I did, that wouldn't be the time to download it! That's the problem. Hence, it's installed and waiting in case something goes really wrong.

  • Brigettedene14 Brigette (@Brigettedene14) reported

    My Waze app after 15 minutes of sitting in traffic: “watch out. Crash reported ahead.” NO ****

  • paulmharman Paul (@paulmharman) reported

    @mikegapinski @TeslaAndroid I think once I have the LTE stick working I won't need to use android auto as the main thing I want is waze. Is there a GPS adaptor that you know works?

  • vanessajones JerseyGirlinGA 🌊🌊🌊🌊💙 ☮️🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦🌻 (@vanessajones) reported

    into Waze & ended up at a Dollar General a mile away. I went in and asked the cashier and was overheard by a customer who directed me. I voted with no problems once I found it. I drove it again today and see that there are two entrances, one of which has 1

  • samthechauffeur Sam (@samthechauffeur) reported

    @arambha__ I'm not an Uber driver. I live in an area where they think it's appropriate to close roads all the time. Waze has a major issue in identifying closed roads and it is ridiculously difficult to tell it that the road ahead is closed in order to generate an alternative route.

  • cardi11o NC (@cardi11o) reported

    @elonmusk please fix the damn GPS or add a Waze widget

  • Izznnn zan (@Izznnn) reported

    @moonthebebita @azyanator yea im gonna have problems looking at waze to get to you

  • april_the_awes April (@april_the_awes) reported

    @googlemaps my parents mailing address brings you to the wrong place (miles away) in Google maps. This causes delays for deliveries. How can this error be fixed? My mom has tried emailing with no response. @waze is also wrong. @applemaps is correct.
