Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • h2oskidude Scott Mason (@h2oskidude) reported

    @heydave7 @elonmusk Waze! It’s been such a hassle since they stopped TeslaWaze from working. It sucks looking down at my phone.

  • Bone_2255 Ace Hardware Unofficial Spokesman (@Bone_2255) reported

    To the jerk in Arkansas marking fake cops on Waze making me slow down every 20 miles…. I hate you

  • nogoodpavement Pave Ment (@nogoodpavement) reported

    @waze While I got you here. You guys aware of an issue with Apple Car Play where Waze gets stuck in one location? No button to re-center? Tried closing Waze app, and turned phone on and off. Sticks between multiple drives. That’s why I had to use apple this morning

  • StuInNorway Stuart Baillie (@StuInNorway) reported

    @_MMaritima @W5Person @waze Other than pedestrian priority crossing a side road, everything else I've found is a clarification of existing rules. The vast majority of cyclists will have no issues there. As you say drivers obeying either version would be a start. (Most seem unaware of the "old" rules)

  • vapelawguy vapelawguy (@vapelawguy) reported

    @JessAnnStrange @spann Waze indicates a crash

  • klyphskinner Cliff Skinner (@klyphskinner) reported

    Why is @waze so broken on @apple #carplay freezes every time I use it

  • evbriefmedia EV Brief (@evbriefmedia) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @electricfuture5 @Dr_CGJones While Chargefox and Evie have reporting features in their apps, I'd like to see a realtime in-app update that a user has flagged a potential problem at a station, a Waze-like crowd sourced function if you will.

  • cymba_de Timothy Raffler (@cymba_de) reported

    @TeslaTruckClub @Tesla I think Tesla changes the data they source and - at least - apply the lower speed limit to roads with different directional speed limits. I have checked OSM, Waze and TomTom, they all have correct limits... So bad and "easy" to fix 🤬

  • tateemer SirAnthonyT (@tateemer) reported

    Hey @iHeartRadio! Do you think you could fix your interface with the @waze app? It plays one song and pauses itself, it's really annoying. Hey @waze! Could you make our routes pulse or glow after it's been cleared by drivers? We never know how current/old the waze path is?

  • theJeremyVine Jeremy Vine (@theJeremyVine) reported

    @MerylORourke @onechiswick Is the A205 a main road? Sadly that's where cars should be, not using side streets picked by Waze as a shortcut. 70% of journeys in London are one person going <3 miles. The drivers are the problem, not the LTNs.

  • uncriticalsimon Simon 🥑🚟🚅😈💉💉💉 (@uncriticalsimon) reported

    @rebeccajtiffany Mine (Waze) doesn't continue beeping, it is a one-off. If you go below and above it beeps again. The speed is shown in red throughout (subject to errors).

  • almightykevo THE forbidden one (@almightykevo) reported

    @waze fix your stupid ****** app

  • _billylofi Ken-Williamkurt Piccoloboe Locrianfiction (@_billylofi) reported

    @Google, hurry and FIX Android Auto. I’m not downloading Waze and I’m NOT using CarPlay!

  • iAmWavyyJonez BIG BROTHER WAVYY JONEZ (@iAmWavyyJonez) reported

    Did Waze crash or is the government hating ???

  • astellarwedding J.T. Martinez (@astellarwedding) reported

    @Magicalfxz @NahBabyNaw I guess I’m still stuck in the 90s, I still have CDs in my car, and every once in a while I print out MapQuest directions in case my Waze app isn’t working

  • TooCoolCat Jaime (@TooCoolCat) reported

    Anybody else having Waze in Metro Manila issues? Seems mine wants to avoid EDSA by any means necessary when that's the route I want 😕

  • fatcatt01 ✨Fat Cat✨ (@fatcatt01) reported

    @G_Kay5 I had a big problem with mi phone as of you on Bluetooth, your WiFi connection will be weak af. Even worse Waze or gps not workable on Xiaomi phone. Still facing same ****?

  • BelleEpoque Stephanie K. Smith (@BelleEpoque) reported

    @nevslin I thought of this last weekend in NorCal when I had an anxiety attack because waze wasn’t working… this despite the fact that I had directions written out for me by the person I was visiting. What has become of us?!

  • shrink100 Dr. No (@shrink100) reported

    @drelectricauto @LenDevanna Agree that’s a deal breaker can’t rely on any navigation map besides google or maybe waze. Even Apple Maps or in-car navigations are not reliable. Another problem was the limited access to the “free 3 year charging”

  • LexiChristineWx Lexia Williams (She/Her/Hers) (@LexiChristineWx) reported

    @Derrick_Snyder I’ll have to do that! I switched to Waze and haven’t had any issues since, but damn I was frustrated!

  • yonahwolf Yonah Wolf (@yonahwolf) reported

    @waze pushed an update a couple of weeks ago. It logged me out. I had trouble logging back in. Apparently because me previous account wasn’t associated with my google account, I’ve now lost 13 years of driving history, etc. #csfail

  • OSaunders92 Ms Saunders 🍭 #TVTTagTeam (@OSaunders92) reported

    Low-key Tuesday night tour of #London due to issues with the blackwall tunnel. Sooooo much traffic I want to cry 😭 cannot decide whether waze was my friend or my foe 🙃 This Tuesday has honestly been the gift that has kept on giving - I DONT WANT ANY MORE PRESENTS PLEASE 😩

  • Irizaurus Irizaurus (@Irizaurus) reported

    What if GPS or Waze had a charming voice that said: it's raining, turn on headlights. Or, it's dark, turn on your headlights. Or, according to my map, this is a 25 mph road, not 45 mph, slow down. Or, don't make a crazy left turn through 3 lanes of blind traffic. Or, look

  • MKamensek Mark Kamensek (@MKamensek) reported

    @rebeccajtiffany Again, I’m not necessarily opposed to such a thing. Waze already does a lot of that for me - but we need to think through all the technical issues, human factors involved, and unintended knock-on consequences.

  • LkjonesSOC wednesday (@LkjonesSOC) reported

    Sometimes I can’t believe how slow Waze’s “add a stop feature” has been since that design change last year. I think I keep expecting them to notice it and fix it?

  • ApacheWoman0 ApacheWoman0 (@ApacheWoman0) reported

    "water falls from DUH SKY" and "falls down" Not UP? Yah, gravity works in "falls down" Waze? Anyway, and then we call the water "rivers" and we "rivet" 2 gather Air Force 1? 0r.. 747's? And we crash them in2 duh "2 cobblers" ? and that's ACCOUNTING 101?

  • BrooklineMAPD Brookline PD (@BrooklineMAPD) reported

    Route 9/Boylston Street inbound closed due to single car crash with wires down. Outbound restricted to 1 lane. Seek alternate routes. @Waze_MA @waze

  • MarieZurie MARIE ZURIE (@MarieZurie) reported

    @waze 😳Security Risks! How about Waze fixing their bugs first! Isn't it about time Waze fix their Kindergarten Drawn Maps🙄 Sadly—Waze is devolving.

  • MarkMNYC Mark Moss (@MarkMNYC) reported

    @glendaler @jam14063 @PGHAdam I agree with notifications - no issue with that at all. Although, the Waze notifications aren't audible, unless there is a setting I am missing.

  • mpendleton Michelle Pendleton (@mpendleton) reported

    @midwestbiaspod @buffalo_alice AND if you are later than what the mapping app says, I will explain what caused the problem. Yesterday, I was headed somewhere, and the major highway was shut down for a funeral procession of a law officer. There’s no way Waze would have known that.
