  • vulcanSassPants Chefboi RD (@vulcanSassPants) reported

    @CovfefePal Waze decided I love backroads and at its worst, took me on a completely unnecessary 30-minute horseshoe around my friend's neighborhood one time. I had to uninstall it and try making a new account. If you deviate from its plan, it becomes a compounding, unrecoverable error 😭

  • Zlauceboxing Isaac Rosen (@Zlauceboxing) reported from Queens, New York

    Has anyone else been experiencing tons of issues/glitches with @waze lately?

  • SDONA_78309 DONOVAN SDONA (@SDONA_78309) reported

    @METROFMSA #access4all...my dololo data story takes me back to being freaked out in the middle of the night in a city I don't know very well,as a Uber driver feeling unsafe then out of the blue my Waze map just stopped working while I don't even know my way out of the city.

    It's the last day of #FinancialLiteracyMonth. Literacy doesn't solve every money problem you have. But it's like reading a map (remember those?) so you know how to get somewhere. If you know your destination, looking at a map (OK, Waze) helps you avoid making the wrong turns.

    Waze be asking if da pothole still dere like dey gone fix it in 10 min or summin 😭😭😭

  • dan9700 Daniel Halawi (@dan9700) reported

    Please fix your CarPlay mess @waze it keeps showing a blank map

  • Uncommoncommon1 bon sens PhD (@Uncommoncommon1) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    @PeteButtigieg Honorable Transport secretary, speaking of infrastructure, super fast trains is a far cry. Let’s first fix all the potholes on US highways including toll roads.Apps like Waze have the exact locations of these craters.Each encounter costs the hapless driver hundreds

  • MikeyNoWay Mike Inouye (he/his) (@MikeyNoWay) reported

    @nbcbayarea @waze #Update -- Lanes cleared and traffic flow is back to the standard slowing you'd expect for SB 880 thru Hayward. No more problems out of Castro Valley for NB 238. (6:29a) @nbcbayarea

  • wcbs880traffic WCBS 880 Traffic & Weather together on the 8s (@wcbs880traffic) reported

    In #NewJersey Watch out for a big delay on the southbound side of Route 21 at 3rd Avenue in #Newark. All due to a crash. @wcbs880 @waze

  • PontiNegro Pontificate ***** (@PontiNegro) reported

    @Mel_Ankoly @chris_notcapn He was checking Waze for a way out of trouble...LOL

  • DeirdreWilloby Deirdre Jean Willoby (@DeirdreWilloby) reported

    @LauraBaileyVO I totally would pay for all their voices to be my guides in @waze ... would be the best car trips everytime! Could also be a problem, cuz id ignore their routes just to hear how upset they'd get!

  • LordManley Manley (@LordManley) reported

    @pro_elbows It is a genuine problem. I get sent a 6 figure grid reference, for example SX 978 779. I jump in my car and have no way to get that into my satnav. If I have a what3words address then that app allows me to ‘navigate in Waze’ and off I go, but with a grid ref I have nothing.

  • OfShyt Full of Shyt (@OfShyt) reported

    @waze your app has changed. I don’t like it now. Please fix it! #wazesucksnow

  • sunluv810 sar ♡ (@sunluv810) reported

    when i'm feeling chaotic sometimes when im on the waze app ill mark police somewhere they aren't then just watch the rest of the traffic slow down on the highway

  • Ale_IT_CA Ale 👩🏻‍🔬👩🏻‍💻 🇮🇹🐾🐶🌵☕️✈️ (@Ale_IT_CA) reported

    Wanna know how the ON/QC border crossing restrictions are working? On Saturday friend in QC had over friend from ON for bbq. Dog trainer crosses often from QC to ON as dog training is “essential” in ON. I assume Waze is also used to avoid the occasional police check points. 🤡🤡

  • SnacksHarington Dan? (@SnacksHarington) reported

    @cucklad420 @muffindan Well yeah it's google maps with more features, but if someone has an issue with the actual map or navigation on google then waze won't be an improvement

  • Struggle_Saurus Struggle (@Struggle_Saurus) reported

    @zdoginterprise See I haven’t run into that issue much, but I have had Waze throw me into the worst route to take when going somewhere a lot recently lol.

  • revdrrob06 rev. dr. rob (@revdrrob06) reported

    So @waze is clutch when it’s working properly but my Gawd it is a poorly developed app.

  • kwooo6000 Kyle, the Baby (@kwooo6000) reported from Marlton, New Jersey

    @Perfect_Tommy26 is it a gag where every location in the world has a broken one or is it like waze and people take it seriously?

  • SpookyHure Kat ☭ (@SpookyHure) reported

    Anyone else get lost because of the timing issues with @waze? If I'm on a short exit and then have to turn, it is not visible on the map w/ Spotify, and the next turn text info is too slow for the flow of traffic. Even if there was a "next" turn text like @apple maps. Something!

  • Senhor_G__ Senhor G (@Senhor_G__) reported

    @Miserychastaine Waze. It will redirect you around traffic issues.

  • Trekkie_47_1701 Trekkie47 (@Trekkie_47_1701) reported

    @Israel @waze My google maps app makes my phone crash every time :( I already tried re-installing, de-installing updates, etc Is waze local for Israel? Does it include info on public transport in other countries?

  • dlee D.L. (@dlee) reported

    @fwmj Waze seems best at police/camera/crash awareness but the directions it gives here are suspect, so many turns through random neighborhoods for no real time savings. I think there might not be enough users here to give really useful routings.

  • roger47298953 roger (@roger47298953) reported

    @KahDoubleE Restart phone . If issue persist, reinstall Waze

  • MarthaBun Martha Morrison (@MarthaBun) reported

    @android 1. Please help. I bought a 2020 Rav4 & can't get apps to work. I have a Galaxy s10e, updates installed. Waze keeps saying to unplug & start Waze first, then it doesn't work. Navigation button for native app on car brings up error message also. #androidauto

  • RealOneRajesh Raj€$# Acharya (VI) (@RealOneRajesh) reported

    @Preetam_M_Rao It seems their 100cr/Month game plan from Bar & restaurants isn't working after Waze-Gate, hence they've turned towards Hospitals/Pharma units.

    @_ShesDOPE_ @sweetwitatwist He got 1 more year to find me. It’s 2021 & we got Waze, so idk what the problem is!!!
