    @coachnovak @RepMTG It’s amazing that this woman or whoever’s running her Twitter account has this much time to Waze. There’s state tax dollars on her tweeting silly stuff when they should be working on solutions to help the people of her state and make everyone profit.

    @Russats @OCDaboutCars I don't have smart too close to me, but recently come across 3 broken down vehicles in lane. M3 no warning at all. M6 no warning at all (but Waze knew). M25 warnings. No one took any notice of red X lane closed signs, for Lane 2-4 (car in 3) They don't work.

  • AAnlyan Alexander Anlyan (Hinhán Iháta) wawachi tatay (@AAnlyan) reported

    @waze I love using your product for GPS driving. Mostly there are no problems, but last week I encountered an odd one. I wanted to drive to 5 Dairy Ln., Montpelier, VT and your system kept directing me up near the Knapp airport in Berlin, Vermont, thus useless for directions.

  • ThereGoesTonio PrEPpa Pig HAS A PRESENT 🎁 (@ThereGoesTonio) reported

    I hate how Waze shows you ads while driving. Like what if I crash cause of y’all

  • TheCarter80 Nestlè Snipes (@TheCarter80) reported

    People who use Waze... Is your Waze voice speaking normally then switching to a really slow weird *** demonic like voice in the middle of giving directions? #PleaseRespond

  • tornari Tom Tornari (@tornari) reported

    @LittleNinjaUK It’s interesting that no-one has bought up the issue of traffic avoiding apps such as Waze. Local people were often the only ones who knew about shortcuts through obscure residential side roads but Waze and apps like it contributed to the clogging up of these streets.

  • douglaskarr Douglas Karr (@douglaskarr) reported

    @waze Sure, it’s a recommendation for a feature… not any problem.

  • DipShitDawg DipShitDawg (@DipShitDawg) reported

    Is it possible to turn ‘guest wazer’ off my phone? It’s a real problem. Please advise. @waze

  • PaigeIapalucci Paige Iapalucci (@PaigeIapalucci) reported

    @waze your app is having major issues with GPS location currently

  • kurorosage sage | Kuroro CEO (@kurorosage) reported

    @Bam_101422 Problem is after lazy comes stupid Most people don't know how to get anywhere in rl cause they use Waze/Uber, you stop training ur internal navigation system If that happens for writing, soon we stop how to communicate altogether Or at least it gets a TON MORE STUPID

  • linds_b Linds (@linds_b) reported

    @waze Why are there so many errors in downtown Toronto lately? No road closures are showing up and it’s a nightmare.

  • Ferd Ferd •🇱🇺🇪🇺🇪🇸🇬🇧👌• (@Ferd) reported

    @waze your latest beta for Android just keeps crashing and I'm not alone, check the replies in Centercode. You'd best pull it and replace it with a fixed version so we can get back a working app.

  • _hwrth Si 🇺🇦 (@_hwrth) reported

    @The_balding_dad @LancsRoadPolice So using Waze to avoid speed cameras = okay? Using Waze to avoid check points = bad? You can see the issue here can't you?

  • FreezieBerry Freezie!🔜ANE 2023 (@FreezieBerry) reported

    idk why but i kinda like having a seperate GPS other than just using google maps because google hogs SO MUCH BATTERY and also is quite slow, same for waze and such

  • stiltznet Darren LaCasse (@stiltznet) reported

    Solved this myself over the weekend. The speedometer hasn't been working since last May. We've been using Waze to keep tabs on speed. This fix? I unplugged a USB cable the kids used to charge their devices from the back seat USB ports, and the speedomter works again! $1400 saved

  • booiem Booie Manalang (@booiem) reported

    Bumper to bumper traffic at #NLEX around Apalit. Waze indicates a car crash.

  • wagzdog22 Sask Shawn wagz (@wagzdog22) reported

    @KeepFree6 Anyways, I believe that, regardless of one’s opinion on Waze, someone else chooses to hunt. It’s still no justification for Trudeau and his corrupt government to be disarming legal Gun owning Canadians as they are not a problem in Canada

  • theglennkelly Glenn Kelly (@theglennkelly) reported

    @waze in car play the audio alerts for speed cameras is not working. Got latest app. Checked settings. Does it only alert if you go over speed limit?

  • PinstripesNY A W Jones (@PinstripesNY) reported

    @waze I’ve submitted a bug. Thank you. This is very annoying and hopefully they fix it soon.

  • Tlake8364 Terry Blake (@Tlake8364) reported

    @robsmithonline Like on Waze, they will do nothing. There is a big part of the problem is the Dems.

  • _GinevraWeasley Madame Vice President (@_GinevraWeasley) reported

    Can someone get @waze and @Apple in the same room to fix CarPlay please???? FFS

  • Four_Realities BobH (@Four_Realities) reported

    @waze Hey, Waze, normally love your service, but small problem today. I have it set to avoid toll roads, but today I got directions which would have taken me on the Ontario 407 Toll Road (and wouldn't have even saved me much time compared to the route I did take). What's up?

  • metoraph yossi burstein (@metoraph) reported

    @Angry_Staffer @11demo11 Alternative has to be non profit utility, post will have same issues under that Waze/google guy. We got to learn from mistakes not repeat them

  • Joe_in_the_how politically homeless (@Joe_in_the_how) reported

    @waze Are your satellites down today? Your app is total trash. The GPS is not working properly as of 3 AM East Coast Monday morning.

  • CzarRayRay Brosito 🐻 (@CzarRayRay) reported

    @waze why doesn't they app auto hide warnings anymore? I didn't think it was a big deal until i noticed subsequent alerts weren't announced. I can fix this by manually dismissing warnings, but that kinda defeats the purpose.

  • EchoGranite Eli Granite (@EchoGranite) reported

    Why does Waze change voices in the middle of a broadcast? Very distracting, and there doesn't seem to be a fix. I like the ways personality that I'm used to, and I don't like this. Anyone else with a problem?

  • PinstripesNY A W Jones (@PinstripesNY) reported

    I’m done using @waze until they fix this creepy two voice problem.

  • TheTrueHman That dude named Harri with an "i" (@TheTrueHman) reported

    Waze got my brain all ****** up having the female voice switch voice actors mid sentence!? What is going on @waze is this an error or are you switching to a new voice but not all of the lines are recorded yet?

  • Andre_GallardoM Andrea Gallardo M. (@Andre_GallardoM) reported

    Hey @waze pls fix whatever it is that is going on with Jane's voice... pleeeeeaaaaaase! I'm begging you! It's just too weird when it switches 😫🥴

  • LittleNinjaUK Little Ninja UK (@LittleNinjaUK) reported

    @tornari No one has "bought up the issue of traffic avoiding apps such as Waze" because the theory was debunked by DfT confirming traffic on side roads didn't actually increase. That's right, another of the key arguments for imposing LTN has proven to be false.
