Punished Sneed (@RacismFan45) reported@faustianwigger Reporting a crash on waze after i showed a cyclist the error of his ways (a hit and run).
-
Janek Mann (@janekm) reported@emollick And I'm convinced that Waze does the opposite... Always prefer the slow route through a residential neighbourhood so the users feels like they're taking a "shortcut".
-
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 I’ll go whip myself and apologize for my absence of pigmentation. Yes.
-
pocomotion (@pocomotion39001) reported@JOKAQARMY1 So you delete waze and use google? They share your dirt with whomever? What issue would cause you to sue waze? It’s free, and you are free to use it or don’t.

Skullaz-san🇯🇲 (@xSkullaz) reported@jay26440083 @perryodontology nothing is wrong with using waze the app has a reporting feature that helps editors to fix routing issues. so unless someone reports it then it wont get fixed
-
N (@Celatus3) reported@SecDuffy I’m so infuriated with congestion pricing! It feels so violating between Waze sending you through zone when you can easily avoid it to feeling completely exploited! It’s not even worth working after having to pay all this. And I’m not taking train after incident I had!
-
Weave (@diaper) reported@mrfundman They should use Waze. If there's something wrong with the map, just click report and a volunteer editor that lives in that area will fix it within a few days. That includes speed limit data which Teslas have issues with.
-
Tony (@TonyB_1997) reported@bigdavetalks @prestonjbyrne Quite right. It’s illegal to break the speed limit in a car, and the fastest you can go on any road is 70MPH. Yet we can still buy cars that can reach 200MPH or more. If you get caught speeding, you will receive a fine. A minor issue, normally. But if you breaking the speed limit is an aggravating factor in a far more serious incident, such as a fatal accident, then the implications will be far more severe. So, yeah, you could carry on using a VPN and dodge around the rudimentary efforts to enforce it (think speed cameras when using Waze) and you’ll likely get away with it. But one day you won’t, or one day you’ll commit some other crime and the VPN usage will aggravate it.

Legs (@legsanity) reportedanyone else having trouble with the Waze app? i open it and it freezes

zeerusli (@zeerusli) reported@waze It's already updated the last version. So many experienced the same. When will you fix this.

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.

Skylarbear (@Skylarbear10) reported@congressdj Just buy Waze. Problem solved.

Red Rocket Ruckert 🚀 (@silverspoonfed) reportedThe issue with Waze is that they try too hard
-
Mr. Zombie Reagan-We will survive. Am Yisrael Chai (@tattooedsaint1) reported@jessisajew Yep. I'm a happy Waze customer in the US, and excited to continue to use it in Israel. Now about that Moovit app... it's tied with Pango, and I'm having trouble getting them to change out a card that I used 3 years ago because it now requires Israeli ID to use?
-
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.
-
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.
-
Louis (@Trolasse) reportedI also have been trying out FSD in Belgium. It is impressive for sure, but still not perfect. Too slow, and the routing is very bad: compared to Waze, it takes wrong roads that add a few minutes of trip time. It sometimes misses exits on the highway, etc. I think it is the future, but I don't think a lot of people would spend 100€/month for it currently (people in Europe have less money!). Maybe just take it during the holidays to make big trips, or if you are a senior (it drives better than my grandpa for sure).

Norman **** - Founder @ Lead Oracle AI (@NormanWangTech) reported🚨 99% of local SEO advice is noise, and most people focus on the wrong things. Agencies sell you on content calendars, blog posts, backlink packages, and social media management. None of it moves the needle for a local business. Here's what actually does: 1. Google Business Profile This is where local search is won or lost. When someone searches "plumber near me" or "dentist near me," they are not going to your website first. They are looking at the Maps pack — and the Maps pack is powered entirely by your GBP. The businesses that rank there have: → Every service listed as a category → Professional photos (updated regularly) → 100+ reviews with a 4.7 or higher rating → Posts going up weekly → NAP (name, address, phone number) data that matches everywhere on the web Most local businesses have a half-filled profile from 2019 and wonder why they can't rank. 2. Website structure Not blogs. Not word count. Structure. Google needs to understand what you do, where you do it, and who you serve. That means: → A dedicated page for each service (not one "Services" page that lists everything) → City and neighborhood signals embedded in the right places → Fast load times and mobile-first design → Schema markup so search engines can read your data correctly Your website is not a brochure. It's a signal to Google that your business is exactly what someone in your area is searching for. 3. Citations Citations are every place your business name, address, and phone number appear online — Google, Yelp, Apple Maps, Bing, Alexa, Waze, Yelp, Facebook, and 40+ other directories. When those listings are consistent and accurate, Google trusts you more. When they're inconsistent or missing, your rankings suffer — and customers can't find you on voice assistants, GPS, or AI search. Most local businesses have never touched their citations. Half of them have wrong information sitting on directories they don't even know exist. That's the entire playbook. GBP → you show up. Website structure → Google understands you. Citations → Google trusts you. Everything else local agencies sell you is secondary to getting these three right. Fix the fundamentals. The rankings follow. Don't overcomplicate it.

Jen (@LegalMindedGiGi) reported@Dan_Donovan_17 @factsdontlie10 I believe the Waze time issue was discussed in first trial.

404prophet (@lightscaner) reported@thsottiaux Reverse engineering the USB protocol between lightburn/ezcad to a 100W fiber laser I have that I've avoided using because the software is so meh. Maybe if I build a programatic interface I'll actually use it. Launch an app I've been working on for months thats like super waze ; connects to radar detectors and shares the pings with other users. Spend a good evening reviewing new tools/skills and workflow stuff.
-
Wayne Kennedy (@lilwaynekennedy) reported@401_da_sarpanch This is the exact thing I've been saying. These ******* clowns don't speak English, have no idea where they are going and will cross five lanes of traffic last minute to hit an exit because their Waze is slow. I've seen mother ******* backing up on DVP exits. @OPP_HSD
-
Brady Clark (@Brady12Clark) reportedThanks to the nationwide T-Mobile outage that just happened, I am now forced to deliver my first child on the side of a highway in Rhode Island. Our Waze app disconnected halfway through the ride to the nearest hospital. Please pray for my wife and I on a safe delivery.

𝘼𝙣𝙘𝙖𝙥 𝘼𝙞𝙧 🛫 (@AncapAir) reported@ArmitageX @waze I was the same way at first, but the hardware is actually solid. @GrapheneOS is working with Motorola to create a non-Google phone with the same hardware hardening they require, but that's still a ways out.

Ahmedkhan (@Ahmed___khaan) reported@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.

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.
-
Jackson (@phillygeordie) reported@Don312A @ardeiusmaleus @catgirlprostate How is it “extreme levels of favoritism” when other maps show the land as Israel and Waze doesn’t? I don’t really see the problem?
-
spencer ¹⁷ 🐈⬛ (@svtquest) reported@sadorbrave @waze she is literally going to crash her car waze please
-
Rex_Tudor_Coup (@iamgnurr) reported@Serk_TX @deaflibertarian Fine by me. Waze is slow and irritating. Google never gets me lost. And, as a dude, I'll never pull over and ask somebody. :)

GUYER (@reyuglatig6pge) reported@LarryBrockJr Can anyone provide a map of the flock cameras in the Portland metro area? What about Waze? Is this another issue too tied to flock?
