  @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!)

  @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

  @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.

  @waze why does every intersection I pass, Waze thinks I am turning at? Every time the map turns thinking I turned when I never even touched the wheel. Can you fix that?

  @waze If you look at the screen shots, you see the glitch. Just fix it

  @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?

  @SysopRon @MattWallaceTech My issue isn't the way fsd drives it's that all tesla navigation has problems and isn't not as good as waze. I'd have the same issue with uber driver app nav

  @TeslaKing420 A simple fix if Tesla would just bite the bullet and license Waze.

  @CuriosityonX Waze stopped working and this is where I ended up.

  @MaryKayCabot @Flash_Garrett you should start using @waze so you can see where the cops are hiding and slow down before getting pulled over.

  @juliecbarrett @kneis816 Honestly, there are no “platforms” now that have privacy. If we are on someone’s server they have data. If you use a mobile phone, take digital pictures and store in “the cloud”, drive a car and use Car Play/Google Maps/Waze - by 2027 your car will assess biometrics, use Siri et al, use social media with backdoors tracking social “reputation”, given facial recognition or fingerprints for digital access, received that code to login to your mobile phone establishing “usual location” and “usual device”, have home “security cams”, Amazon, use email (which has your work data/attachments/anything you’ve ever composed, SMART tvs-watches-appliances…and so on. The name of the game is our DATA and all Of those data centers have to centralize it all to form a digital ID for each of us before digital currency can be introduced. Then they have it all. We have no privacy…we have given it away step-by-step for “our own protections and security.” 🙄 Agenda 2030+ is well on the way to reality.

  @TexasTSLA @robotaxi This is what we can not have. Why? Those people will now bad mouth Tesla saying they are slow , can’t trust them, etc. Always assume right on red is allowed unless specified otherwise!! Or have Navi data accurate like Waze.

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

•

  @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.

  @Polymarket Ask priests to stop using AI to write sermons? That’s cute, but AI isn’t some optional gadget anymore. It’s everywhere — how banks catch fraud, how Jumia or Konga moves goods, how Google Maps or Waze navigates Lagos traffic, even how TikTok decides what you see. Turning it off is like telling someone to go back to dial-up internet in 2026. Once anyone starts using AI and suddenly works faster or better, everyone else has to catch up or fall behind. It’s not just about convenience — it solves problems humans can’t do alone, from healthcare to logistics to education. At this point, AI isn’t a toy for sermons or tweets. It’s part of how the world runs. You can limit reckless use, sure, but asking it to disappear? Impossible.

  @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

  @vad3rt3sla Like Waze… It would also be nice if there is traffic to know the reason: car crash, construction, etc…

  @RjeyTech Price is never the problem with G offerings, it is future innovation (Nest, Waze). If they were trying to compete with Apple Watch and augment another data point to their ecosystem, they’ll abandon the product if revenue stream doesn’t match their expectations.

  @iHateApplee @appltrack lmao just saying its the norm, surprised apple hasnt started sooner. Free platforms usually end up with ads sooner or later. i brought up the biggest map example but waze also has ads, im not sure why you have a problem with apple when they do something but anyone else is a saint

  @waze What's happening with support for using @TIDAL or is it a TIDA problem? It hasn't worked for me in years.

  @markgurman Good thing I quit using @apple maps a few months ago since they can’t figure out how to fix the storage glitch for CarPlay users. @waze it is for the long-term!

  Did you know navigation apps can actually make traffic worse? 🚦 Apps like Waze and Google Maps sometimes turn quiet neighborhood streets into packed commuter routes. Here’s why. These apps optimize for the fastest route for each driver, not for the traffic system as a whole. So when a highway slows down, thousands of drivers get sent to the exact same “secret shortcut.” What used to be a local trick suddenly becomes a new traffic jam. It’s like everyone discovering the same hidden restaurant at once. The line gets long. Service slows. The secret stops working. That’s why some cities are now blocking cut-through traffic in residential neighborhoods. Navigation apps can save you time. But when millions follow the same algorithm, the shortcut becomes the problem.

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

  @HumanityChad If this was NY, they would have put two orange cones around it all summer, then decide to fix on Monday at 8am so Waze can reroute you because the street is now closed because of road work.
