Waze Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • heartyphblog ❤️HeaRty.PH (@heartyphblog) reported

    What’s with NLEX? I’m stuck here for awhile at the top of bridge. This is scary considering cars are wriggling while in traffic. Can’t find any news but saw waze says major crash

  • locknain L O C K (@locknain) reported

    here we go almost being the best navigation app for me, until their traffic update is slow, and the speed camera didnt show. love the interface. a hybrid of google maps and waze. but damn the data is outdated and slow. could be better.

  • Hillary4POTUS Stop the Insanity (@Hillary4POTUS) reported

    @Angry_Staffer The birdbrain CEO is f*cking with a lot of accounts, big & small. There's really no way to stop him. Today Nick Fuentes video channel was put on to add to the toxicity. I check in just like I slow down to see car wrecks. @stoptheinsanity on the site created by the Waze guy.

  • ttilley64 Tom Tilley (@ttilley64) reported

    @RichardKimNYC Commuting problems...presumably Google/Waze. Disasters..."ShakeAlert" was a successful demonstration of providing online alerts for an earthquake before the waves hit most folks who received the alert, perhaps related apps are needed for things like tornadoes, etc.

  • JMTremblay1 JMT (@JMTremblay1) reported

    @waze not working today no map’s

  • ingelramdecoucy Enguerrand VII de Coucy (@ingelramdecoucy) reported

    @ptrbrsn @CheeseForEvery1 As I recall Waze grapple with a similar issue, at first they let you see real time locations of other Waze users on your map but then realized it was a privacy nightmare so they switched to showing it on a delay. Least that’s my memory of it.

  • EmbellishFX Embellish FX (@EmbellishFX) reported from South Apopka, Florida

    @waze I’ve sent a few emails to you with all the details but no one ever responds. The business name is Embellish FX and you have the incorrect address listed and it’s causing lots of issues and loss of sales

  • egghead0101 North Sea Wanderer (@egghead0101) reported

    @david_mccraw As soon as “always connected sat nav” (google/waze) took off Craigentinny Rd became a traffic basket case. Interesting to see it used here on your “better” route via the bypass. The *only* way to fix this in town planning is aggressive filtering.

  • Romaq @Romaq@qoto.org (@Romaq) reported

    @waze I connected with the map volunteers that maintain that area. It seems a known issue, some tied to @googlemaps. My stepson drove while I installed Waze on his CAN phone, it guided us fine, we are here! Thanks, and he's now a Wazer too!

  • HugeFrigginArms Erik Germ (@HugeFrigginArms) reported

    “tap here to acknowledge the horrible car crash on the highway and you will receive +2 points” - Waze

  • Cassix5577 Cassidy Faul (@Cassix5577) reported

    I wanna put out a P.S.A. for the Waze Navigation app. When you report a crash or just pass a crash that already been reported, could you please take a second and comment which lane the problem is in? It would help us wazers alot I think.

  • Jusjules2 jusjules2 (@Jusjules2) reported

    @JohnathanPerk Depends on the state, but mostly I set it to 79 - 83 if the rest of the traffic is doing similar. And I use Waze to alert me of issues (ie. Police)

  • DQFab_ZA DQ (@DQFab_ZA) reported

    @mohleefee Fresh Cut. Waze wamuhle Moh. Please don't let your heart be broken. Not with that handsomeness.

  • bfritchie Bryan Fritchie 🇺🇸🐗 LGB! FJB! ⏺️  (@bfritchie) reported

    @waze The app is broken. I can no longer tap the button to report cops, construction zones, or hazards in the road.

  • disorderlyswine Scott (@disorderlyswine) reported

    @phillipsclairel Main issue is I’m not enamored with the ownership structure. Founded by Waze and backed by Andreessen Horowitz, while aiming to be a news monetization platform.

  • PMPamet OnceInspired (@PMPamet) reported

    @SharylAttkisson This, and your comment about Slow Children Playing are two of my pet peeves! My other is when Waze announces this warning, the computer voice sounds as if it's saying, "Police Spotted a Head!"

  • saintpepsitt TheSaintPepsi ⛄💯🔥 (@saintpepsitt) reported

    Wappon? Allyuh waze not working awah? Traffic updates my ***

  • kaydeetoo Kevan Debonnaire 🇺🇦 (@kaydeetoo) reported

    No fuel type choice, so I uninstalled Waze, then went to Google Play and reinstalled it - the option to choose fuel type is definitely not there! It has only just happened and is on my Pixel 6 pro as well as on my wife's iPhone... Anyone else got same problem? @waze

  • melissaroyde melissa royde (@melissaroyde) reported

    @waze hi. Want to sign up but link to privacy policy isn’t working. Not good legally! Want to check what you will do with my data first.

  • vince_tseng vince tseng (@vince_tseng) reported

    @jeremydenk Post is rough now, but it has high potential. Best team working on it - Noam built a better mapping app than Google and Apple (Waze) so quite possibly he can do the same with Post!

  • davidxlai David Lai 🇺🇦🇺🇸🇪🇺🇨🇦🇬🇧 (@davidxlai) reported

    @janiskirsteins @flyosity @kuba_suder You are ignorant. The guy who founded Waze has a team that has been working on Post for a couple of years. There is not even an app for mobile devices yet.

  • GoGators100 Geralt Lee (@GoGators100) reported

    @KariLake @ArizonaSunTimes Nobody cares what losers problems are. Go away loser. You lost, loser. How does it feel to lose, loser? You lost so bad, Waze cannot even recalculate your way back, loser.

  • Scooterstation Dutschke ➡️on Mastodon @dutschke (@Scooterstation) reported

    @erikengheim however, it appears that the new for profit app POST is having scaling problems: 130000 applicants in nwaiting. Meanwhile, mastodon has millions more followers already, while the former WAZE CEO at POST is attempting to market to celebrities to preemptively corner the "market"

  • draftAmerica Sports and Stuff (@draftAmerica) reported

    @waze seriously even an update to the app didn’t fix that ridiculous demonic voice “bug” and it’s making me just want to use Google Maps instead, what is going on??

  • luya_dlamiini 19🤍 (@luya_dlamiini) reported

    Told my mom I won't be home for NYE and she just said "Ok no problem" 😩 ewu waze waqeqesheka umzali. 🙈

  • EmbellishFX Embellish FX (@EmbellishFX) reported

    @waze Does anyone work there? I have been trying to reach you for MONTHS in correcting an address error in your systems, but NO ONE will help me. Waze is very frustrating!

  • tweetthatsheet Dan 🍥 (@tweetthatsheet) reported

    @nlnotestine @RoscoeJones I thought it was a bug in my app or phone. I reinstalled it on my old phone with no fix. I installed it on a NEW phone, no fix. It’s Waze’s issue. No way they’re independent as you claim. If they told you that, they have to be misleading. If you work for them, you’re misleading.

  • mimisogood Mimi. (@mimisogood) reported

    Waze is triggering my trust issues again😒

  • ImicimbiKaFofo #ThuTshani (@ImicimbiKaFofo) reported

    @RaisedonB Yooooo waze wahawula umdala wenkosi kanti ama lawyers awama human rights and staff isn’t these are the issues they should be running with?

  • beamsvillemac Bryan McIntyre (@beamsvillemac) reported

    @Tracytms I've gone to post. It's in beta so some things aren't working right yet and it has some glitches. But show some good promise. CEO and founder started and sold WAZE (to google).
