@MyronGainesX No sir. You strike me as someone who likes to start trouble. Waze off the Jews, homeboy.

@adamUCF I prefer Google Maps. I do not use Waze. I accidentally clicked the button. I will report that it seems to be working better now.

@octal @shagbark_hick DPS only ever stops me for no front plate. I'll see the trap on Waze, slow to legal speed, and get pulled over anyway.

@HonestEVs @DirtyTesLa Fair enough. I had the opposite problem today since this latest map update inexplicably has half the New Jersey Turnpike set at 45 instead of 65. They really need some sort of real time crowdsourced map updates like Waze.

@cosmos_atom_ @ayeejuju Haha, fair point! If we're talking traffic woes, apps like Waze already help with lane guidance, but for seamless switching, check out Tesla's Autopilot—it auto-changes lanes. What's your go-to fix for bad drives?

@waze So, after about 8 years of exclusively using Waze as my go-to nav app, I come out of lunch and all my saved locations are gone from the app. I'm still logged in, just everything's empty/blank. Is this a known issue with the app? or perhaps my Samsung phone?

What's a name, anyways?
(@JuvenileBluster) reported
@RocAnonPatriot @libsoftiktok @DHSgov Oh, but it is. Very well established that you can publish where law enforcement is working. Otherwise Waze wouldn't exist, for one.

@_SFTahoe Put the same route into Google and it won’t direct you through the same illogical path. You can like the tech and criticize it. Apple/Google/Waze all do navigation much better than Tesla. Their nav is bad and causes a CAR THAT CAN DRIVE ITSELF to make unnecessary errors lmao

@Marjori88206011 @dirspielbergo you seem to confuse two issues GPS on the phone is commonly tied to mapping software apps (Waze, Google Maps, etc). Maps are not stored on the phone but are updated in real time by the app Please explain how my “old school” GPS device worked without cell service? Try again

@aidan_mclau @goog372121 @nearcyan Have zero issues. Any major tech shifts brings a cultural change and the recent OA moves just makes it quicker. We need people changing from “deciding what you want and clicking apps” to just mumble to your phone and it doing it for you. A step further from Waze deciding your route.

@SawyerMerritt Did: 1. Flash to pass (required by federal law) without disabling matrix high beams. Just let me use the flash without it disabling auto high beams at all. This should be a no-brainer. 2. Waze and Google incident data including police with reporting and FSD should automatically report for you. This right here would eliminate 90% of the requests for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. 3. Allow pressing the wiper button, and then using the scroll wheel to adjust auto wiper sensitivity to fix the wipers sucking issue that still isn't fixed especially in New England slush season. 4. Enable long press on the interaction to get to your phone's AI. Why? Because the car can't do reminders, can book appointments, can't do a ton of stuff. Yes I get it, grok for everything car, but I still need my phone's AI and I REALLY REALLY REALLY don't want to enable "Hey Siri", I don't like spyware. 5. Auto play messages. It should tell me by voice if I have a message and ask me if I want to read it and then if I want to reply. Copy Windows Phone's flow on this, it was FANTASTIC.

@Teslarati Yep same issue here! Their GPS is nowhere close to Waze, unfortunately. Tesla GPS never takes me the most optimized way

@YourMainDude @rjonesy Was just on a few hour trip. Someone else in the car had Waze and it alerted twice when Apple didn’t. If it’s working, it’s worse.

@Robbbdobbb @TomTom Tom Tom needs to add features that makes them stand out. Right now they are basically trying to meet what they offer and its not good enough. People dont have the time to deal with compatibility issues when Waze and Google Maps work already.

Someone else are having issues with wired Apple CarPlay? Waze and Google Maps freezing during navigation, Amazon Music stop playing after one song (even with shuffle mode enabled). Hoping it’s just iOS 26 that needs to be fixed.

@grapenuts__ That’s insane tbh. I haven’t encountered that problem with Google Maps myself. I don’t like either tbh. I’ve been told to use waze but idk if I like that either lol

@OCAmericans @LAURA_N_ROD @chicagotribune Sorry, Ivan, but it's not against the law to call out the location of law enforcement in a public setting. If it was then Waze, GoogleMaps and Apple Maps would've been trouble a long time ago.

@MacRumors The issue is that the OS can be great but it will never get the same 3rd party support as CarPlay. Chic-fil-a will never make an app where you can offer from your car on their OS, Waze will never make an app for their OS. It won’t work lol.

Google Maps, Apple Maps, and Waze just stopped working on me for the fourth day in a row and i got lost in a town i have never been to, middle of nowhere, no one knew where i was. The anxiety attack i had and am currently having is hurting me
