Waze Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • keplerniko KeplerNiko (@keplerniko) reported

    But toughest is trying to get Android Auto/Waze working, because if I've been using the phone and apps are open in the background, the phone usually will time out before it connects to the car.

  • congressdj DJ (@congressdj) reported

    @waze app not working this morning. downdetector dot com showing huge outage this morning. What gives?

  • stvnleycrypto HAUS M⭕️NEY STVNLEY (@stvnleycrypto) reported

    @Apple Apple Maps has some serious problems…makes me not even want to use it and go back to @waze which I hate with a passion

  • BobDore Bob Dore (@BobDore) reported

    @WazeUK Could you fix this as a matter of urgency! Waze has become unusable in London if your destination is outside the congestion zone.

  • caileyhaynie caileyhaynie 🐑 (@caileyhaynie) reported

    Hi @waze why does my music only play from my back speakers when I use you & how can I fix it???

  • norfolkmustard Stu (@norfolkmustard) reported

    @DavidHowey @KateFantom @joshdbaines No problem, let me know if there’s something we can update in the Waze map 👍

  • BradBellflower2 Social distancing champion (@BradBellflower2) reported

    I know where the problem lies here but @waze and @Apple (iPhone 13), it would be great if you can get your **** together

  • _Djamond_ Not Djamond / Yureiii (@_Djamond_) reported

    @waze cannot use the app whatsoever. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling and nothing is working. What the hell is going on over there??? Fix this, this is annoying af.

  • UDOTTRAFFIC UDOT Traffic (@UDOTTRAFFIC) reported

    Driver Alert: A crash has closed EB I-70 at Exit 48 (SR-24) near Salina. Expect delays in area. Check the UDOT Traffic App or @waze for updates. @UtahTrucking @UDOTRegionFour

  • mnokcy Nokcy Masuku (@mnokcy) reported

    @mrNATUREglobal Waze waxakeka 🤨Yes i love it, so? Oh by the way i dont owe you anything to see, there is no “we just wanna see your face” it’s you only, you have own problems

  • rorymeakin Rory Meakin (@rorymeakin) reported

    @LambethCyclists Indeed. One example in the thread is (half) in Lambeth. The disruption at first is significant, though. While I wish councils were a bit less cowardly, problems need to be dealt with faster too (eg updating gmaps, waze etc)

  • TheMekkaMan The Mekka Man (@TheMekkaMan) reported

    Got to love it when you update apps on the phone and they crash. Like it worked fine @waze , your “bug fixes” made more

  • FOX17Traffic FOX 17 Traffic (@FOX17Traffic) reported

    Several crashes reported by @waze users on I-96 EB & WB from west of the Lowell exit to Nash Hwy. Slow traffic on both sides of the highway. #KentCo #IoniaCo #Traffic

  • chuffnut21 Nick (@chuffnut21) reported

    @SnakePassRoad At 5:15 this morning there was a just cone at the side of the road at Ladybower and no signage saying it was closed so I went for it (Waze also showed it as open). No issues with snow however as you say, a few stranded vehicles in the road.

  • Bongeka_Shozie Bongeka_Shozi (@Bongeka_Shozie) reported

    @Kaym0w_ The only solution to that is to get em tested b4.. that'd nvr be a problem to a person who loves you trully / use protection... ngeke-ke waze wahlulela ***'nika isizathu to as to why um'gqokisa/ ugqoka istatus sakhe mungasazi

  • Flyestoncampus Project K (@Flyestoncampus) reported

    How is Waze not working??? What kind of set up is this?

  • ArtisanLoaf Artisan Loaf (@ArtisanLoaf) reported

    @Petrolhead_Rich i followed waze rerouting me off the m25, was slow going, and then the way i needed to get back on the m25.... a car on fire. couple minutes later 2 random cars broken down, one in the middle of a junction.

  • Eon_Drache Eon Drache (@Eon_Drache) reported

    @JWorldAlive From the looks of it JWA is still broken on android 12? The GPS does NOT work on my S21 with android 12 unless I open the game in split screen and have another google maps service (Maps or waze) Open in multi screen.

  • Viwie_ VethaVarshini Kavya Allam (@Viwie_) reported

    3/ Well, we can conveniently argue that the old couple could've been more #mindful when marking their destination. But I'd say WAZE should have provided the user with means to error prevention! How? 👇👇👇

  • wcbs880traffic WCBS 880 Traffic & Weather together on the 8s (@wcbs880traffic) reported

    Stop and go on in Manhattan: on the Southbound side of the #FDRDrive near #79thStreet due to a crash. @wcbs880 @waze

  • UhKneeSeeYa “Pumpkin Spice” (@UhKneeSeeYa) reported

    Waze not working this morning I see

  • jobyhim JO (@jobyhim) reported

    @waze @JanineLynette I had the same problem yesterday. My family couldn’t view my drive.

  • GootSFG Goot (@GootSFG) reported

    @waze what's going on ??? No network notice but my network is actually working....I'm traveling....need this fixed....thank you

  • UDOTTRAFFIC UDOT Traffic (@UDOTTRAFFIC) reported

    Driver Alert: There is a crash on SB I-15 at MP 334/700 South in Clearfield. One lane is open, expect major delays. Check the UDOT Traffic App or @waze for updates.

  • nessman Jujyfruit (@nessman) reported

    @rachbarnhart It's mostly driver error. Just like most airline disasters are pilot error. Last job was a road warrior gig... many many close calls due to idiots behind the wheel. These days apps like Waze are emboldening people to push the envelope even further.

  • JLSavvy Justin Savage (@JLSavvy) reported

    @waze is actin w whole fool in northern va right now. Server issue??

  • floatybackdoor Mums Gone Fishing (@floatybackdoor) reported

    @waze use to be good but now it’s too complicated. Have been trying to login for a week but their system is stuck in a loop. What a shame as this app in the old days was awesome.

  • ReidJarreau ReidyReid☺️ (@ReidJarreau) reported

    Not traffic! Waze what’s the issue sis?…why didn’t I catch sis lol.

  • grumplovesyou Yeff Besos 💋 (@grumplovesyou) reported

    My Uber driver refused to make a u turn to pick me up in front of my building and made me cross the street. When I got in, waze told him to make a u turn and go south and I told him “well that went well…”. I’ll risk the 1 star review to sass him, no problem.

  • _kayejaee_ Vibezzz😅😎🔥 (@_kayejaee_) reported

    Man wtf is wrong with Waze 😫😫😫😫 it’s not working
