AngryFrank (@ang6377) reported@AnthonyCumia Spot on for the 2nd half. Here’s the problem with the 1st part, “speeding violations” mean cameras where they keep lowering the speed limit after people’s waze app lets them know when there’s a camera and they stop ripping people off
-
Brittney🥪 (@kurizmatik) reported@JEllulz I liked when I was working in Los Angeles and Waze introduced the no unprotected left hand turns feature.
-
Akshay Shinde (@ConsciousRide) reported@ravikiran_dev7 Google Maps pulls speed and location data from millions of Android phones with location on. When many devices slow down in one stretch it flags a jam right away. They add road sensors and past traffic patterns for better accuracy. Waze data also feeds in since Google owns it. Your phone becomes one data point in the system without naming you. This is how the red zones show up live on the map.
-
Tom Karren - Agent Operator. (@tomkarren) reportedFSD needs some systemwide Waze type features. Road construction is one of the biggest issues with navigation.
-
Salvador Chavarria (@schavarriaTexas) reported@htsfhickey Fred - real life example…google maps is actually now really bad at optimizing routes. Really bad…switched to waze which is also owned by google as you know but still seems to be working fine
-
Madí (@madi_ayazbay) reported@Mike_the_Elder @NotATeslaApp I totally agree, only problem in some countries like Kazakhstan we do not have turn by turk by tesla at all. I have no idea why. But via apple carplay : waze, google maps, 2gis, maps, yandex maps all work! I wish tesla would just add all the countries as turn by turn! I do not think technically is so difficult.

coco the pailot (@pailot_the_coco) reported@waze if you do not fix apple car … Hello @TomTom
-
Red Rocket Ruckert 🚀 (@silverspoonfed) reportedThe issue with Waze is that they try too hard
-
Sunny Spirit ❤ 🌻 (@SunnySpirit1919) reportedI see the problem. You don't understand the data+are unable 2 synthesize info. SUV running clock SYNCED 2 REAL-WORLD TIME. John’s WAZE history CONFIRMS route= 💥WHEN+WHERE they were 💥Corroborated WHAT MAKES IT BULLETPROOF w/other OBJECTIVE DATA=Karen Read Techstream+Infotainment

Dmitry Lyalin (@LyalinDotCom) reportedJust sent a detailed bug report to a director in Waze on a very odd map issue here in Florida. He was extremely excited to dive into this with me. People like this make all the difference in a big company.
-
Nozi (@nozi03) reportedWe have a brand new problem in South Africa....Ntsiki Mazwai! Waze wasilaya uThemba @euphonik, we are subjected to her nonsensical tweets day in and day out for Elon's coins so he can pay him.
-
BlahajStealer (@BlahajStealer) reported@iHateApplee @appltrack lmao just saying its the norm, surprised apple hasnt started sooner. Free platforms usually end up with ads sooner or later. i brought up the biggest map example but waze also has ads, im not sure why you have a problem with apple when they do something but anyone else is a saint
-
Uncle Phil (@jsin215) reported@SysopRon @MattWallaceTech My issue isn't the way fsd drives it's that all tesla navigation has problems and isn't not as good as waze. I'd have the same issue with uber driver app nav
-
benferrum - e/jounce (@BenFerrum) reportedHey @Tesla_AI FSD feedback from down Under: * The Tesla navigation in Australia is bad, it is biased towards taking right hand turns which are the most dangerous/slow when driving on the left, > pls benchmark your navigation against Waze * FSD drives decently my wife felt safe, but we need Mad Max mode because my grandma has more tempo, I did not used FSD that much because it takes ages to speed up * It's too timid to get into a lane/roundabout/cross an intersection * It picked the wrong lane 2x in a 4 hour drive ( same pattern, moving to the left lane to move right > hook turn overtraining much? * Pls improve the voice recognition of Grok so it can handle other than US and British, I have a slight Eastern European one, but even emulating the Ozzie one did not help ( Oi mate, bring me to the closest Macca's ) * Australia has a lot of stupid speed limits 30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,110 And because Australian traffic designers are moronic they like to mix them on the same road is short succession, > if you could add some smoothing to be biased towards the higher speed and not slow down that much that would help to make the drive feel more natural * Pls update you maps in Aus, there are a lot of new roads/signs/speed which you navigation is not aware of * The FSD viz cannot recognise a train * The FSD viz thinks the speed limit with a red circle, above the freeway is a red lamp > pls fix it for obvious reasons Otherwise great job, it passed the wife test for feeling safe!

HITMONREZ (@REZGOTBARS) reported@deefinewhine Don’t use Waze. The problem you complaining about not gonna change because we drive fast in every lane but the left which causes accidents every morning. In reality most people drive like *******, if we just remove the speed limit like the south it will be better.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@Ashh_404 @tanujDE3180 Google Maps pulls real-time traffic data from millions of smartphones (mostly Androids with location on, plus Waze which Google owns). Phones anonymously send speed and position updates. If a bunch slow down 10km ahead, the system spots the pattern and colors the road red/yellow on your map. No cameras needed—just crowd-sourced data from drivers already there. Historical patterns help predict too.

Matty (@mattboy1i) reported@joshwoodward Gemini needs work in android auto with Waze it's broken DM for information I can't DM you.
-
Neel (@neelshah545) reported@MapmyIndia @narendramodi Make ui smooth no lag and make app ui simple not overlays . Try to copy from apple maps or waze or if copyright issue arise try to use ui of Chinese maps
-
optimistic man (@_Misandaa) reported@msiziworld @Mr30C I never had a problem with Waze. Ever. Apple is worse worse
-
Kevin Egan (@lonesharkoy) reportedSo, what app are people using to plan routes these days? Are google maps, waze etc working to take into account blockades?
-
Blessed sibanda (@blessedbanele) reported@SengezoTsh17075 Ndoda waze asithengisa libalele nje do you even think about what you doing and I think ndebele people we should work up we can fix this by other means like ke this tshabangu guy should pay for what he did and what he's doing
-
DestroyerGawd (@Mdoo_007) reported@msiziworld Waze is a community app.. it constantly needs people/users to update on any issues on a particular route… if no one does anything.. it’s simply useless!
-
Baylee (@bb50028) reported@Flighty @ALewin Would be cool if it is like Waze, were we can report ourselves the wait times or slow lines
-
Barry Zahurance (@barryzed) reported@EliAfriatISR Waze says “turn on Main Street” but it should be “turn onto Main Street”. There’s no way to correct it, the grammatical error is baked in. Other than that it’s decent and I use it.
-
Sef Kombo (@SefKombo) reported.@Waze please add option for a broken down vehicle
-
Maxim Oskolsky (@oskolsky_maxim) reported@Altawesomeee Built this app to solve my own problem: I use multiple navigation apps, but none of their favorites sync together. I got tired of saving the same places over and over across Google Maps, Waze, Yandex, etc.
-
Ben (@bfayers_) reported@AIMgains @AutoPap Picked it up a couple weeks ago, it is lovely! Never bothered using the built in sat nav on my MG to be honest, just stuck to maps/waze through AA. Definitely had signal/app server issues a few times during my ownership though.
-
Bonf1re¹ (@bon_macharia) reported@Kimuzi_ @xysist @indiiazi Hadi huku nowadays ata google imenishida kutumia it's too slow and very inaccurate compared to waze
-
AMPed UP (@DoublepPradhan) reported@TexasTSLA @robotaxi This is what we can not have. Why? Those people will now bad mouth Tesla saying they are slow , can’t trust them, etc. Always assume right on red is allowed unless specified otherwise!! Or have Navi data accurate like Waze.
-
Njoroge (@Joe_AlexN) reported@NdemoKelvin I agree, the problem is that those clowns are always on the move. It's like they're also using Waze bana. You report them, they move afew kilometers ahead.
