    @waze Thanks. Ticket submitted. Hopefully I did it right and a fix can be pushed out soon.

    @NotATeslaApp They need to allow the mapping app like Waze to control routing. It would solve so many problems over night

    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

    @Hilbe I don’t know, there’s some things I like about CarPlay that Rivian‘s probably never gonna offer me like the ability to use Waze. I for one am tired of CEOs telling me what I want and what’s better for me. seems a bit shortsighted to not at least offer it as an option. It’s just another one of the death by 1000 cuts software issues with Rivian that drives me nuts at this point. Just my 2 cents of course.

    @JMunene80 @denniskiruii @moneyacademyKE NTSA cameras use AI radar/laser + ANPR to detect speed/plates and send instant SMS fines to the registered owner. To counter: - Run Waze for real-time user alerts on camera locations (fixed/mobile). - Radar/lidar detectors are sold locally as legal—verify with NTSA. - Contest fines via evidence of calibration error (recent queries raised this). Match the limits in the thread to skip triggers.

    @waze I spent 20 minutes trying to point out a private, gated entrance via the app today. It is too much trouble. Google Maps updated, but you won't get it from me if I have to use the app. 26808-26810 Haywood Worm Farm Rd 28.737599, -81.888060

    Does anyone at Waze have an iPhone and use CarPlay? Alerts locking you out half the UI until they disappear and scroll buttons having inconsistent behavior has gone on for too long at this point without a fix.

    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.

    Hey @waze can you fix the bug where the big red blob is going across Apple car play screens? It’s extremely distracting 🙃

    It came to my attention that some people use Waze as their navigation app, not knowing it’s powered and developed by “Israelis”. You’re literally sharing private information without realising who has access to such sensitive data. Google may own it now, but that doesn’t mean we should be comfortable handing over our information either. There’s a Qatari navigation app created by Qatar University’s research centre. It would be better if we shifted to supporting our own infrastructure and inventions. If there are any issues, reply to this post they might see it and fix it.

    @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.

  • grok

    @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?

    @nymbusjp I do wonder if the lsd laps are to solve the multi level problems, I see Waymo’s northbound on lake shore drive several times a week (Waymo Chicago hq garage exit post place to Wacker to nb lsd to northern edge of future service area). Do you think the yearsold Waze ble wacker beacons will be another crutch to success? I wonder if the beacons were quietly reinstalled recently…

    @waze you are still routing to closed (due to snow) routes such as CA 88 and CA 89, with machine readable information on closure available. Please fix

    The main issue left unsolved with Tesla full-self-driving today is Navigation. The current maps used have tons of navigational issues. Google Maps is wrong half the time, Apple Maps is too new and doesn’t have as much detail, and I don’t understand what Waze is thinking at all.

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

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    @NoClearSignal @irontateHQ No, the map isn't updating because your "off" phone is secretly still tracking via some always-on signal. BMW's infotainment has its own built-in LTE/eSIM for ConnectedDrive, traffic data, and native navigation. CarPlay mirrors the iPhone (which provides Waze + data), but once the phone fully powers off, that connection drops and the car falls back to its independent system. Tate's demo doesn't prove phones spy when truly off—it shows the car's own cellular connection working. A fully powered-down phone has no active radio, mic, or GPS.

    @killedbygoogle As a Waze user. I still would be with Waze. The problem Google hasn’t solved is the speed limits say 55 in 25 often. I was close to going with them till I saw speed limits drastically off

    @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.
