Waze Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • cerboston CER (@cerboston) reported

    @WBZTraffic Looks like on Waze the sirens are for another crash at the Byfield exit. Maybe from people getting started back up again?

  • danccoleman Dan Coleman (@danccoleman) reported

    .@SpotifyCares Is there a patch to fix the Car Thing crashing issue? I want to love mine, but its constantly crashing and restarting, which is a bigger issue when using waze or anything else at the same time...

  • DeanCapture Dean Capture (@DeanCapture) reported

    Hi @googlecalendar, on iPhone 11 Pro, when I click an address on Google Calendar, it opens Google Maps but I want to open Waze instead, how to fix this? It worked perfect for a few years opening Waze but recently started opening Google Maps. I didn’t change anything 🥺

  • egoffney Eric Goffney (@egoffney) reported

    @waze @JanineLynette I had the same issue. It can occur if cellular data is turned off for Waze. To check and correct go to SETTINGS - GENERAL - CELLULAR . Ensure that Cellular Data (top of screen) is enabled. Then scroll down until you see the Waze app. Ensure Waze cellular data is enabled.

  • dnykanen Dave Nykanen (@dnykanen) reported from Farmington Hills, Michigan

    Next up. Audio issues. When #Waze is launched, audio deprecates on #CarPlay.

  • UDOTTRAFFIC UDOT Traffic (@UDOTTRAFFIC) reported

    Driver Alert: There is a crash on NB I-15 at mile post 237, about 4 miles north of Mona, one lane is open. Expect major delays. Check the UDOT Traffic App or @waze for updates. @UDOTRegionthree @UtahTrucking

  • UDOTTRAFFIC UDOT Traffic (@UDOTTRAFFIC) reported

    @waze @UDOTRegionthree @UtahTrucking Cleared: Crash has cleared on NB I-15 at MP 237, about 4 miles north of Mona. No travel delays.

  • nickemiliano Nick Emiliano (@nickemiliano) reported

    @TheNevadan7 @Honda Dealership can’t do anything but replace unit or update. No update available and the unit isn’t defective. Waze google and Apple Maps all behave exactly the same. This is a software compatibility issue that Honda refuses to address. Their software is too old to accommodate apple.

  • Scigi Dominik Ścigalski (@Scigi) reported from Warsaw, Województwo Mazowieckie

    In #ios15 #carplay voice searching stopped working in @waze. Any chance of eliminating that bug guys? @Apple - iOS 15.0.2 did not do the trick :(.

  • alby100 Alex (@alby100) reported

    @waze Can you please fix your app so it stops turning the volume down to my front speakers every time I connect to Apple CarPlay? It was an issue a year ago. Why is it still happening?

  • the4damd Ádám Dudás (@the4damd) reported

    Instead of @Google thinking about what voice and car icon will be on @waze next week they should bring back the old routing algorithm and fix dictation on iOS. Since they acquired the company it’s gotten much worse. Small fishes are better most of the time. 😔

  • guylarious Guy Patton (@guylarious) reported

    @StevenFulop @waze @googlemaps Focus should be on traffic reduction overall, not on which neighborhood should be disadvantaged. If anything, the bridge has made the traffic burden in Jersey City more equitable. This traffic has always been here, but now that it has inconvenienced the wealthy, it’s an issue.

  • EdThePurple Edwin (@EdThePurple) reported

    Fixed an issue with EdVPN that used to make Waze unable to connect to its servers. sorry folks. I didn't know its from our side.

  • nickemiliano Nick Emiliano (@nickemiliano) reported

    @eatingadderall @Honda Apple google and Waze both behave the same. Works by itself (no CarPlay) and with other vehicles in CarPlay. 2 years with this problem and no solution. Honda doesn’t update that unit and won’t diagnose the issue. Uses android 4.2.2 from 2013 🙄. It’s either that or slow processor

  • TheNevadan7 Neva 🏳️‍⚧️ (@TheNevadan7) reported

    @nickemiliano @Honda I would take it to the dealership to check out whats up with it. Have you tried using Waze or any other map service to see if it still has the same problem?

  • Keithnteri Keith Flanagan (@Keithnteri) reported

    @momisaninja Apple Maps. Better maps and now let’s you report issues like Waze.

  • mikaonukaT mikeonukaT (@mikaonukaT) reported

  • manonluvscorbyn marlie's kid | gonna see maneskin ?!?! (@manonluvscorbyn) reported

    Welp I just arrived to the hospital to work, but I had to get there without waze cuz the gps wasn't working i was so anxious for the whole trip

  • iwanticecream3 iwanticecream3 (@iwanticecream3) reported

    @cutnoise @lb_southwark @LittleNinjaUK Satnavs and apps like Waze have actually been moving traffic from main roads onto residential roads, that is the problem.

  • _Ndiey 🙏 (@_Ndiey) reported

    @Zi_Geda Eybo mfethu waze wane scefe, lapho itshengisa igcwele and it's so slow WTF🤧

  • tombRaider_kw Tomb Raider Crypto (@tombRaider_kw) reported

    @remembermusa @Syntropynet @waze they working on new ideas

  • IamMenyfresh Meny Ventura (@IamMenyfresh) reported

    @CBS11Andrea @waze The interesting question should be where does all that money go that they charge us hard working citizens!

  • JMHomesNY Jennifer Meyer (@JMHomesNY) reported

    I can’t stand it when I forget to use #Waze and get stuck in slow moving construction traffic!!!!!!!!

  • _krissym_ KAM 💋 (@_krissym_) reported

    CarPlay and the new iPhone issues are frustrating. Waze works but literally any music app does not. Smh

  • RunawayJimPVD Runaway Jim (@RunawayJimPVD) reported

    Anyone have issues with @waze crashing? It crashes in the same spot on my commute home every day. Just completely freezes there. (RI’ers, this is on 146N just before the 104 exit)

  • MarcelStGermai4 Marcel St Germain (@MarcelStGermai4) reported

    @momisaninja I use Waze never a problem even alerts me to police presence or any other emergency vehicles close by had google maps got lost with it lmao

  • TracyYifrah Tracy Yifrah (@TracyYifrah) reported

    @JudahAriGross It's actually a real problem. Try Googling or searching Waze in English for something that might appear only if you write Bersheba, Bersheva, Beersheva, Ber Sheva etc. Etc.......!

  • remembermusa remembermusa (@remembermusa) reported

    @Syntropynet @waze Y’all have to change something up. I hope your new hire helps out a lot b/c your engagement is very bland. These tweets target and audience that is well aware of what you are trying to fix. You need to engage with the $BTC, $ETH, $DOT, and $FIL communities.

  • TulseHillLTN Safer Streets for Tulse Hill 🚶🏿‍♂️👨🏼‍🦽🤸🏿‍♀️ (@TulseHillLTN) reported

    @CricklewoodMum We've spoken to quite a few traders locally who've been delayed or frustrated by inaccurate mapping of LTNs within Waze or Google maps. We've spoken to the council about it but the issue hasn't gone away. Satnav firms need to sort out their act
