User Reviews
Been using Waze for a long time, but this last update seems to have killed the option of checking for alternate routes. Once you click the alternate route option on the CarPlay screen. The map itself goes black and you can’t choose an alternate route. You can only hit go and it will stay black until you unplug your phone and plug it back in.
Convenient, helpful, and reliable. Only thing they could make easier is to a have an open option to have from point A to B if not leaving from your current area.
Life traffic does not seem to be accurate or it’s not able to update for some reason.
Try to reroute, in iOS, and all mapping disappears.
If you’re looking for an app that will constantly make you late for work. This is the one for you! Will never let you know about road closures until you are stuck in the back up.
Honestly, completely confused why there are no arrows designating which way traffic flows on a street when this app...maybe I need to start using Apple Maps, they show this info.
Love this app
Help a lot , great for guiding people .
I end up using Waze more than Navigon. Waze will show the shortcuts.
Nice to see / have the easy to access the large onscreen speaker button.
経由地を複数個入れられるようになるとほかは捨てられるのに
Also, the "Microphone" permission option isn't showing up in the settings. I'm back to a situation where I can't record my own voice for the navigation prompts. The same thing happened with the previous update.
