  @HumanityChad If this was NY, they would have put two orange cones around it all summer, then decide to fix on Monday at 8am so Waze can reroute you because the street is now closed because of road work.

  Shouldn’t Tesla fix its navigation issues instead of terrafab first? I know many like my fam that paused FSD subscription due to continuous navigation intervention. I man even Mapquest is more accurate. Hear me out: solution? Terra Giga Map Fab. A 335 football field long factory that will be the platinum (not gold) standard of all mapping. Compute won’t be a problem for this either because the terrafab 1 will then be joined by terrafab 2 which will be 10x larger for colossal compute power. I know I know you are asking “but why not just license and integrate Fkn Waze?” Well, for that we have to wait for Elons master plan 18 due in 2029

  @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

  Dear @waze I love your maps! However, since you added the animation at app launch, my app locks up and I can’t put in my desired address. It works about 50% of the time. Please fix it. In the meantime I’ll be using @Apple maps.

  @TeslaKing420 A simple fix if Tesla would just bite the bullet and license Waze.

  They simply slow down when police are spotted or WAZE warns them, then they speed right back up.

  @Dan_Donovan_17 @HoldenMaur50368 Nobody is arguing that the GPS became more refined after Waze was opened. That’s normal. The issue is that you are treating the data interpretation as absolute and undisputed when it wasn’t. A more accurate GPS signal does not automatically prove the CW timeline or interpretation of events. Green’s point was about how the timestamps and various phone artifacts aligned with each other not whether GPS accuracy improved from 20m to 5m.

  @phibetakitten Don’t get me wrong. It will reach the closed road and detour just fine. The problem was that so many roads were closed, it kept mapping to the closed roads and then doing detours. It was almost endless at one point. Using Waze I was able to navigate it in 1/10 the time

  @boycatapp @amasad @ThePillarsApp We need a good 🍉 alternative to Waze (which is HQ'd in the false fake state) Please tag others in the industry, maybe someone is already working on it, or will be inspired to do so.

  @RobH02050318 @WallStreetApes Most self driving vehicles are going to induction charging. Think like the iPhone mag safe chargers. They would just park over the charger. The braking system is regenerative so they don’t need to be replaced as often as normal brakes. The sensors in the vehicle would allow the person at a main hub to see everything related to the vehicle like tire pressure, battery life, etc. GPS like Waze operate in realtime and many partner with the weather to warn of things like high winds and forest fires. Only issues I see are building the infrastructure (which the mass production of cybercabs this year will accelerate) and states adjusting their regulations to better accommodate self driving.

  Dear #Waze, wtf is your problem today, telling me to take the long way home. The way I've never taken, while my usual, shorter route was just fine??? I remember when waze was the better option. And now... ? SMH.

  @elormkdaniel Because your phone is basically a tiny traffic sensor. Google Maps doesn’t “see” traffic, it measures behavior. Thousands of phones on the same road continuously send anonymized GPS location and speed data. The system groups these signals by road segments and compares current speeds with historical patterns. When vehicles suddenly slow down, like from 60 km/h to 10 km/h, it flags congestion and turns the road red in real time. Then comes Waze. After Google acquired it, the real power was in combining data, not merging apps. Waze users actively report accidents, police, closures, and hazards, and that information flows directly into Google Maps. In return, Google’s massive data improves Waze’s routing and traffic predictions. So even if you never open Google Maps, your phone can still be contributing to traffic detection. You’re not just using the map. You are the map.

  Waze has not worked well for me the last two days. I had to uninstalled then reinstalled for it to work. Then on top of that the steering wheel felt weird. Vibrations. I was worried that the vehicle was about to start having issues. Today I realized what the vibrating sensation was. My audio is always on Vol Max. I had forgotten to turn the sound off on Waze. It's been talking to a deaf woman who has been worried that she was going to have to call a toll truck.

  @SnooCompliments You guys seem to put a lot of faith into John’s Waze app and a correlation of time done by a guy who has been pursuing a 4 year degree for 18+ years…What exactly is the issue here? Trust the data right? Except when it implicates the house defendants….then it’s obviously just wrong.

  Orvill Samanta (@orvilldesign) reported 31 minutes ago

  Why 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.

  @FSDyinzer @TheAccuracyPoli @Teslarati 💯 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.

  @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

  @ironcanary @TaraBull I went 6s Plus to 13 Pro. Too many important apps stopped working to keep using it. But I still use it for Waze.

  @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.

  @The_Suburbanist I would say the obvious problem with your original idea is coordination. How do you coordinate 'paying people' not to drive into an area to limit specific traffic jams? If Waze offered that I suspect some people would try to make money by driving into rush hour traffic.
