Adeti Maina (@_adate) reportedEver cried on the road? Well, 01.00am, I am in Abu Dhabi, both Waze & Google Maps are not working. The signage is blacked out. 20 mins of frustration, driving & not knowing where you are going. I just started crying. Wanted to drive back to Dubai but had left something at the hotel. Pulled over to order a taxi to guide me but couldn’t even pin to my location. Na ni highways. Hakuna maduka to ask
-
Zlatan Gomez (@zan_diva) reportedCan I vent ??? As a person from the townships who moved to the suburbs.. I'm struggling with Police visibility.. my brain associates cops with trouble.. I'd only see cops when they are WORKING.. here they just around, nje.. Just parked nje. Waze shows 9 cops.. nje just present
-
Ken (@GeauxTiger66) reported@TuesdayGazette Waze was a slow speed, less than 20 mph, at times like 5mph
-
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
-
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.

SchumaModelY (@SchumaModel3) reported@TeslaTim2 @Tesla @Tesla_AI Hey Tesla, ask for help! Waze, google, whatever. Just FIX THIS ****!
-
J (@Junxid_) reportedWaze needs to fix up
-
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.
-
Jason Wallace (@TragedyCalls) reported@nursedanakay Surely it cannot be beyond the wit of man to map where they are. Certainly telematics should be telling the car something's not right in the same place every day. I have a similar issue on my route and @waze. 9 speed humps which variously appear and disappear .
-
Maqhawe Simelane (@Buqhawe) reported@zizipho50 Waze wayisilima we Oros, working with other countries is what we need, illegal immigrants must go back home and fix their papers.
-
David Makogon (@dmakogon) reported@AustyUSA Don’t forget all the people who hate on CarPlay, with snarky comments like… 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.
-
B52Returns (@B52Returns) reported@BeltParkway @Johnnycesartist @nypost Thats not clearly seen in the picture. But Waze can help with that. In fact when I am forced to slow down too much, I start marking police locations in waze as a F U to the speed trap cops.
-
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.

The Future is Autonomous (@SuperMajority18) reported@beyoncegarden I just dealt with a complete ******* Mass State Trooper working a detail at Logan Airport Departures Terminal E last night around 6 PM. I pulled up to drop off my fiancée, hopped out to grab her luggage, and was back in the car in under 30 seconds. Her phone was still connected, so I quickly switched it to mine to connect my Waze for the drive home. Total time parked curbside in the drop-off zone: less than 60 seconds. I wasn’t blocking anyone. This unhinged prick immediately starts waving me off, then yells “NOW! Get off your PHONE!” while aggressively marching toward my car. I nearly missed my exit home because of his bullshit. For no reason whatsoever, this douchebag escalated a perfectly normal drop-off into a hostile confrontation. This is exactly why law-abiding citizens despise cops and call them pigs. Zero justification, pure power-tripping aggression. Just another completely unnecessary, ****** interaction with police.

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.
-
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.
-
John_Hawkins (@JohnHawkin71262) reported@ClimateWarrior7 I just drive at normal speeds and slow down for the cameras. Use Waze and even alerts you to police mobile cameras. Never any points.
-
SoLindo Mahlangu (@_XolaniMahlangu) reported@BamUyatandwa @Psyfo_05 @Ongavinjelwa Waze wazenza I Advocate yakhe.All the guy was pointing out is that she must really be hurt by The OP new kit that she post about this so early in the morning.I doesn't matter if she is up working or not the point still stands though.

Greg Prescott (@prescott_greg) reported@TheSuzieHunter Is your Waze not working??

Ben (@ben_toto23) reported@TheHauskarl I agree 100%. Early 2025 this got very real for me. It emerged that the UK government had secretly served Apple with a Technical Capability Notice under the Investigatory Powers Act, demanding access to end to end encrypted iCloud data. Apple's response? They didn't weaken the system for everyone. Instead they pulled Advanced Data Protection, their best iCloud encryption option, for UK users. What really stuck with me wasn't just the demand. It was the secrecy. These notices come with a legal gag order. Companies aren't allowed to tell anyone they've received one. The only reason any of us know is that the story leaked to the press. Apple itself was never allowed to confirm it. Only Apple was named in the initial reports, with zero confirmation either way about Google or others. By design that silence tells you nothing. You're simply not meant to know this is happening. (see below for link to articles). That's when the alarm bells really rang for me. I've since built my own private setup. A Raspberry Pi handles my encrypted offsite backups. My phone runs GrapheneOS. My ThinkPad runs Debian. This fully replaced Google Drive and iCloud. The same principle applies to software. LibreOffice does everything I used to need Microsoft 365 for, free, private, and with nothing phoning home. For most paid tools solid open source alternatives exist if you look. For cheap offsite backups: Hetzner Storage Boxes, 1 TB for around 3.20 euros per month plus VAT, 5 TB for around 11.40 euros per month. Excellent value. Add Infomaniak (Swiss) as a second target. It sits outside the EU and UK entirely. For phone backups I use Syncthing on GrapheneOS. It syncs documents and photos directly to my Pi over my own private network, no third party accounts involved. The files stay on hardware I control. On the phone I also switched to Organic Maps (ditching Google Maps/Waze). You lose live traffic but I would rather keep my location data to myself. My documents and photos live on my own devices and back up to storage I fully control. Nothing important sits on services I can't inspect. The bigger issue is the devices themselves. Anything that phones home is a hard no for me. Firesticks, voice speakers, smart home gadgets and so on. They are designed to send data back constantly, often without clear visibility. Fitbit stands out because it is owned by Google. Every step, heartbeat and sleep record goes straight to them. Fun fact: Fitbit data has already been used as evidence in court cases. The same privacy logic applies to GrapheneOS on my phone. If a device can't be trusted to stay quiet it gets replaced. With digital ID and age verification rolling out fast, now is a good time to audit what you're storing where, what devices you're bringing into your home, and what data you're feeding into cloud based AI tools. My rule of thumb: Whenever something digital feels too convenient, ask yourself: what is this really going to cost me?

Kane (@shmkane) reported@SawyerMerritt I want to be able to see WhatsApp messages, use Waze, reply to group text messages, build a YouTube music queue. And I don’t want Tesla to waste engineering time on a solved problem. There’s bigger fish to fry.

I Am Rakgadi (@NaSheldonCooper) reportedI really wonder too, washela kanjani, waze walala laye kanjani coz he seems very slow.

OTTA 💰 (@ottabag) reportedHow do I fix my Waze or Google maps my **** keeps teleporting me
-
Sammy Lee (@Sammy__Lee__) reported@BoBbyPleWniaK FSD needs to know to slow down to speed limit when it sees a cop. It should also speak to other Teslas and navigation should know where cops are like waze

Asenathi P. (@PAsenathi) reported@azolagodlimpi2 @Zoemkoena why are you lying be she had a problem with that waze wathi wenziwa islima
-
Bobby Boulders (@ItsBig_Earl) reported@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.
-
Women Love Each Other (@mbathambali493) reported@Angelinahhhhhh I will not be working on this part of my personality. In fact I need to sharpen my level of judgment for people who accept invites to that podcast. WTF was the fave thinking? Waze wangibora uNono 🙄
-
TACO 🌮 (@ThatoEastside) reported@kaizen_ceo @BulawayoForever Why was it SA's responsibility to take him out? As citizens who knew the election was unfairly won why didn't you take a stand and remove him yourselves? Waze wasinyela wenja we have our own problems
-
Adam Elkassas (@adampredev) reportedWaze for airports could be cool if it doesn’t exist already. User reported tsa line backups, gate changes etc, baggage claim issues
-
Bobby Boulders (@ItsBig_Earl) reported@Proctor4Gov @Maggie725496820 Slowed down in speed for 0.6 seconds but didn’t record any collisions? If she hit John on the road moving in the opposite direction of the flagpole…how ******** did he end up over by the flagpole? If Higgins jeep was parked at the mailbox how come she didn’t crash right into it? You see how other details matter when you’re trying to claim this ridiculous collision? If the TL collided with his arm how’s he get the cut on the eyelid and nose and such bruised knuckles but zero bruising on the arm where he was supposedly hit? The marks on the arm (32) caused by only 9 little holes…no tearing, no leftover pieces in the sleeve…again, **** your janky Waze correlation and address the injuries.
