Waze Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Ahmed Nadar (@ahmednadar) reported@4thLine4Life @waze Waze tells drivers to dodge the pothole. SolveTO tells the city to fix it. Different problem. Waze has the data, but it stays in Waze. Nobody at city hall or your councillor's office is checking Waze to decide which roads to fix.
-
Adam Clampitt (@AdamClampitt) reported@Teslarati Has anybody seen 14.3 do a better job in real time for blocked and closed roads? That has always been a huge problem. Waze always seems to know what roads are closed and the Tesla NAV doesnβt.
-
LT (@LtMunst) reported@TeslaKing420 A simple fix if Tesla would just bite the bullet and license Waze.

AI_4_Healthcare (@AI_4_Healthcare) reportedπππ πππ'π πππ πππ π±-π¨π°-π΄ ππππ ππ πππ π-π¨π°-π. πΎπ πππ πππ π¨π° πππππππ πππ πππππ; πππ ππππ πππ πππ ππ πππππππ Big Tech is dropping billions like it's nothing. AI models are accelerating weekly ... from LLMs to AI agents to full orchestras of them running directly on our phones and desktops. Chatbots everywhere. Humanoids on the horizon. The world feels like it's spinning faster than anyone can track. Drones are no longer science fiction; they're reshaping warfare in real time, from Ukraine to the Gulf, amplifying chaos as conflicts escalate with tools we barely understand yet feel powerless to slow. Societal distrust is deepening. People fear massive job losses, bleak prospects for new graduates, and mounting risks around privacy and safety. Many believe governments are hopelessly behind and regulators simply cannot move at the speed of the technology they're supposed to govern. On this, they're not wrong. But here's the truth: AI is already everywhere ... we spread it around, ourselves. Every tap and swipe has been training it for years. Auto-correct, Grammarly, Amazon purchases, tap-to-pay, social feeds, Waze, Netflix β the list is longer than most of us care to admit. We've flooded social media with graduation photos, videos of family vacays, and parents' obituaries; freely, eagerly, in real time. We recycled passwords across hundreds of accounts and clicked "agree" without reading a word. Identity theft and privacy violations? We continue to feed this machine through digital non-hygiene akin to the plague. It's already a buffet for AI-enabled fraudsters that we've served up. Corporations built platforms we loved: convenient, free, endlessly scrolling, and we accepted the trade-off with eyes at least half open. The business model was never hidden. We just chose not to think too hard about it. We spread the J-AI-M ourselves, every tap and swipe, 7-24-365 for years. The workforce consequences are no longer hypothetical. Copywriters, paralegals, customer service agents, and new grads are feeling the ground shift. The economic upside of AI is real, but it's flowing overwhelmingly to shareholders, not displaced workers. We need retraining pipelines, and we needed them yesterday. The promise is equally real! AI is transforming healthcare, will accelerate clean energy, 10X our climate change fight, and take us to other planets. The j-AI-r is open; what's inside is not all bad. There is more real hope than ridiculous hype. Do we push for algorithmic transparency laws? Demand digital literacy in schools and workplaces, not just how to use AI, but how to think critically about it? Support liability frameworks that hold developers accountable for measurable harm? Insist that workforce transition funding be tied to the companies generating billions from automation? Yes, no, what else? We made this J-AI-M. We spread it everywhere. We must be honest enough about our own roles to navigate what comes next ... wisely. π€ Of interest @lexfridman @garymarcus @LuizaJarovsky?

coco the pailot (@pailot_the_coco) reported@waze FIX APPLE CAR!!!!

Matt Osborn (@themattosborn) reported@FSDyinzer @TheAccuracyPoli @Teslarati π― That is exactly what I was talking about. It is quite frustrating. There are plenty of navigation systems out there that they could model from. Why is it still an issue? And their map data is pretty old as well. A peer managed mapping system similar to Waze would be awesome.
-
Slinger Auto Zone LLC (@SlingerAuto) reported@saswat101 @waze Imagine this: instead of just a "pothole ahead" alert, the app provides exact GPS coordinates and dimensional photos so crews know exactly what theyβre dealing with before they even arrive. Even better? It can use traffic data to pinpoint the absolute best time to fix themβwhen traffic is at its lowestβto minimize the headache for everyone. This is the kind of data-driven city tech we need.

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.
-
Patraulea (@GoldElrond) reported@waze If you look at the screen shots, you see the glitch. Just fix it
-
Mark (@Mark25418098) reported@canttreadonmi @gilarutrina @TruthFairy131 You are so correct. For a moment, I felt bad for the victim. But now I see the error of my Waze and Iβll go whip myself and apologize for my absence of pigmentation. Yes.
-
BasedSouthAsian (@BasedSouthAsian) reported@CP24 Maybe she's too retarded to drive, the rates are well posted, there is a toll calculator online, even Waze calculates the toll for you... so if with all that you're still 'surprised', then that's a you problem.

qunzei (@qunzei) reported@ryanvogel YO any known issue with waze alerts? hasn't been working for me for the past 6 hours
-
Belt Parkway (@BeltParkway) reported@cashandcarrots @BobFromAccounts just use waze camera database and slow down for camera then speed up when thereβs no more camera
-
MJ (@MJ5fzp) reported@waze @ziggymarley Please fix Car Play.
-
Peter Miles (@ginjajedi) reported@DanielCars05 Anybody had any issues getting sound from waze when using one of these?
-
vogel (@ryanvogel) reportedThe map box issue isnβt the primary issue, itβs the Waze Data API getting shut down, I have no way to obtain that data legally
-
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?
-
Tshepo Chiloane (@mohlakale) reported@jerry_peep @LimChronicle The problem is not using Waze. The problem is reckless driving
-
alex (@alex_EV3) reported@FranzHueme70898 @teslaxander 3 Beispiele: Siri, Whatsapp, Waze
-
Baylee (@bb50028) reported@Flighty @ALewin Would be cool if it is like Waze, were we can report ourselves the wait times or slow lines
-
Chatman (@rchatman) reported@disneyguy12345 @martboficial Google Maps still has a problem with delayed turn info in metro areas. Providing turn guidance while on the freeway at 2mi, 1mi, 1/4mi and then BEFORE the turn is why I keep going back to Waze, and the reporting feature.
-
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
-
Salvador Chavarria (@schavarriaTexas) reported@htsfhickey Fred - real life exampleβ¦google maps is actually now really bad at optimizing routes. Really badβ¦switched to waze which is also owned by google as you know but still seems to be working fine
-
Avni (@FawkOffAhole) reported@apple the latest beta up date seems to have some glitches! Uploads are slow ! And Waze has issues too I have to unconnect from the infotainment system to get the screen on it otherwise it stays frozen
-
Vince (@TheVSal) reported@waze please respond or acknowledge that the widespread CarPlay issue is being worked on?
-
Orvill Samanta (@orvilldesign) reportedWhy is there no Waze for golf courses. Every weekend someone drives out to a course that has punched greens or patchy fairways and finds out when they get there. That information exists. Other golfers who played there that morning know it. It just goes nowhere. TurfTracker is the app that changes that. Crowdsourced conditions, one tap to report when you arrive, rewards for contributing. Know the condition before you commit to the round. This is the iOS concept I have been working on.
-
Nic Cruz Patane (@niccruzpatane) reportedThe biggest problem with CarPlay is enabling it to synchronize with Tesla FSD. If you input a destination in FSD using Teslaβs native navigation system, it isnβt going to match what you see in Apple Maps, Waze, or Google Maps. Integration is a lot more complicated than it seems.

Sunny Spirit β€ π» (@SunnySpirit1919) reportedI see the problem. You don't understand the data+are unable 2 synthesize info. SUV running clock SYNCED 2 REAL-WORLD TIME.

Bonf1reΒΉ (@bon_macharia) reported@Kimuzi_ @xysist @indiiazi Hadi huku nowadays ata google imenishida kutumia it's too slow and very inaccurate compared to waze
-
David Makogon (@dmakogon) reported@AustyUSA Donβt forget all the people who hate on CarPlay, with snarky comments likeβ¦ comparing to a coke freestyle machine. Tesla software is nowhere near perfect. Map/direction issues, non-trivial air control, small fonts & touch zones, no Waze, no proper group texts, on and on.
