    So, what app are people using to plan routes these days? Are google maps, waze etc working to take into account blockades?

    @bcasale @itskyleconner Can you not report the error in Apple maps? I do it in Waze and Google Maps.

  • cassper726
    Cassie (@cassper726) reported

    Anyone with an iPhone having issues with gps apps acting wonky right now? Both Apple Maps and Waze can’t seem to locate my correct phone location for accurate tracking and directions.

    @VerizonNews Please fix this asap... Idk how tf to get home from work without waze #imcookedchat

    @fisher4maryland @c_cgottlieb @GovWesMoore Someone is making money by creating a state web site that won’t be used to emulate a working web site that exists publicly. You’ll see how much Wes’ cut is when they ban google maps/ waze and start selling ad space on the site.

    @HermanBovens @Teslarati Tesla uses Google Maps which uses Waze community edits on it. Tesla throwing out google maps probably isn't in the cards. Maybe using Tesla's own hyper accurate maps as overlays to Google, and maybe FSD could contribute road closures etc. (and use them from Waze to fix some stuff I've recently scene!)

    @Teslarati CarPlay is trash but a functional WAZE would be very beneficial. Now, if Tesla could only fix its V14 road database problem or at least let us control speed similar to V13.2.9.

    @Teslarati I really want navigational integration with Waze and I want FSD to be Waze-aware. Meaning I want it to slow down a bit if there are known police ahead. It’s all there, it just needs integration.

    @xsteppppppppppp @TheGreeneBJ No, i'm not the only one who had problems with the maps, most of the people i know never switched back once they used waze. Waze's good in updating road's conditions too

  • das_algo
    Civilian (@das_algo) reported

    Isn't it funny how Waze helps us dodge traffic but our leaders keep driving us straight into a disaster? They can reroute your commute but can't figure out how to fix the economy or the border crisis. Maybe they need a navigation app for common sense too. What will it take for them to find the right path?

    @waze your alerts are broken with the latest update

  • 551CARS
    551CARS (@551CARS) reported

    120th and Dodge under the expressway is still REALLY slow. The ONLY notice from anywhere is a waze report of a major crash. No confirmation from officials

    @andrew_r The map box issue isn’t the primary reason, it’s the Waze API getting shut down

    @Trillion0x Waze issue been known for a decade. Once it was bought out by Israel. What'sApp to. Anything owned by Israel is an info op

    @FactSparkDaily @BrickCenter_ Use Waze. Problem solved.

    Hey @Tesla_AI FSD feedback from down Under: * The Tesla navigation in Australia is bad, it is biased towards taking right hand turns which are the most dangerous/slow when driving on the left, > pls benchmark your navigation against Waze * FSD drives decently my wife felt safe, but we need Mad Max mode because my grandma has more tempo, I did not used FSD that much because it takes ages to speed up * It's too timid to get into a lane/roundabout/cross an intersection * It picked the wrong lane 2x in a 4 hour drive ( same pattern, moving to the left lane to move right > hook turn overtraining much? * Pls improve the voice recognition of Grok so it can handle other than US and British, I have a slight Eastern European one, but even emulating the Ozzie one did not help ( Oi mate, bring me to the closest Macca's ) * Australia has a lot of stupid speed limits 30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,110 And because Australian traffic designers are moronic they like to mix them on the same road is short succession, > if you could add some smoothing to be biased towards the higher speed and not slow down that much that would help to make the drive feel more natural * Pls update you maps in Aus, there are a lot of new roads/signs/speed which you navigation is not aware of * The FSD viz cannot recognise a train * The FSD viz thinks the speed limit with a red circle, above the freeway is a red lamp > pls fix it for obvious reasons Otherwise great job, it passed the wife test for feeling safe!

    It’s really dumb that we don’t have a “I don’t want to take the freeway” option on maps products. This is needed @waze @googlemaps Constantly getting the dumbest routes wasting time and actively putting me in MORE traffic. This algo is broken.

    @googlemaps I have seen an issue where Google maps ends a trip 3-4 blocks before the destination, even when the map us updated and accurately showing my location, this happens to more people, since I have seen this in your forums and not solved. This doesn't happen on Waze. Is it solved for this update?

    @ryanvogel YO any known issue with waze alerts? hasn't been working for me for the past 6 hours

  • RAurora
    Reggie Aurora (@RAurora) reported

    @YevgenyShapiro @guychristensen_ The OP has no problem sharing his location and other info with other providers, only Waze and only because they are based in Israel. I am fully aware that Alphabet owns Waze.

  • GPhillips10

    If I had £1 for everytime Waze mentioned "pothole reported ahead" I'd have enough money to FIX ALL THE BLOODY POTHOLES! 😡😡😡

    @killedbygoogle I dont see Google addressing the fundamental issue that is making me using waze, so i dont think so, at least not for the moment

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    @Haerong_Joy @theapplehub No, iOS 26.4 isn't blocking GPS apps—Apple doesn't restrict third-party apps like that. Known compatibility glitches with location services have lingered from earlier iOS 26 builds (e.g., background tracking fails on lock screen for Maps/Google Maps/Waze). Quick fixes to try now: - Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > [your GPS app] > set to "While Using the App" or "Always". - Reset: Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Location & Privacy. Restart after. If still broken, it's a bug—Apple usually patches in the next point release. Which apps specifically?

    dontpannic (@dontpannic) reported

    @ihorvorotnov @Cartidise Waze is Google Maps with a different skin and more aggressive traffic avoidance. I find it absolutely horrible. I’d rather sit in slow traffic than take a route through small, speed **** infested roads with lots of junctions to save potentially 30 seconds.

    This dude just needs to use Waze and all his problems would be fixed. Minus rolling a car over because of speeding.

    @LKubone @Tealmooss I'm also correcting the part where you said she wanted no5 in this particular Season she didn't.She went to MaYeni to find out what they are gonna do about the fact that Musa wants a no5. Wayeshilo kuMaCele that she doesn't want waze wathi if no5 comes she'll be MaCele's problem
