About this app

Know what's ahead on the road with the help from other drivers. Waze is a live map that harnesses the local knowledge of tens of millions of drivers around the world. Drivers safely and confidently reach their everyday destinations thanks to Waze map’s GPS navigation, live traffic updates, real-time safety alerts (including roadworks, accidents, crashes, police, potholes and more), and accurate ETAs.

Make your next drive more predictable and stress-free:
• Get there faster with real-time directions, accurate ETAs and automatic rerouting based on live traffic, incidents and road closures
• Even if you know the way, avoid surprises on the road ahead with safety alerts for accidents, crashes, roadworks, objects on the road, potholes, speed bumps, sharp curves, bad weather, emergency vehicles, railway crossings and more
• Steer clear of tickets by knowing where police and red light and speed cameras are located
• Share what’s happening on the road with other drivers by reporting live incidents and hazards
• Stay informed of upcoming speed limit changes, and keep your speedometer in check
• Know which lane to be in with multi-lane guidance
• See toll pricing and choose to avoid tolls along your routes
• Add road passes and vignettes for HOV lanes and restricted traffic zones
• Find petrol/fuel stations and prices and EV charging stations along your route
• Locate parking lots near your destination
• Use voice-guided turn-by-turn navigation from a variety of languages, local accents and your favourite celebrities
• Plan your next drive by checking ETAs by future departure or arrival times
• Use your favourite audio apps (for podcasts, music, news, audiobooks) directly within Waze
• Sync Waze to your car’s built-in display through Android Auto

I don't know what is wrong with the app lately, but it keeps trying to take me TWENTY MILES out of my way every time I have to go into the town that I live nearby for NO REASON. It doesn't give me any alternate routes, either. I can't report it to any kind of support at all. This app is becoming more and more frustrating to use. Absolutely useless garbage. Hard delete.

The best navigation app I have used. Of Google maps, Apple maps, and a few others Waze is the only one I actually prefer. SO MANY voices in different languages and gimmicks. So far, the only one I liked was "Kate". Unfortunately, they keep changing the voice tone and the newest version's bad. Sounds vaguely like an AI interpretation of a 13y/o boy finally hitting puberty. It is not pleasant to hear anymore and switches on random words to older versions which is even more jarring/unpleasant.

Audio alerts are not working properly. Update: after reaching out to support, I was told that this is the expected behavior. I used to get alerts while not using Waze for navigation, just driving with it open. Apparently the only way to get alerts now is in navigation mode. I don't know why they changed this, but it was the only reason I used Waze. Also would've been nice to have that change documented somewhere. I found no evidence of that change in many Google searches and Waze articles.
