    @dlgenner @waze Same issue Malaysia

  • steelclogs Mr Mick NL 🇳🇱 🇪🇺 FBPE (@steelclogs) reported

    @dawnlovesgreece @al_tinkum Waze used all my power & my phone got really hot. We use Google maps. It even told me in real time to stay in the left lane because a car had broken down 400m ahead, and it had! You can start the trip at home & save it on your home screen.

  • mattsilverman4 Matt Silverman (@mattsilverman4) reported

    @lordkelvin1st Only problem is @waze doesn’t really understand your routes well. But good view. Nobody really in they sky too. Minimal rush hour problems.

  • SPaytonNoFilter Stephen A. Payton (@SPaytonNoFilter) reported

    @NCDOT_I95 My timing could not have been worse. I had just passed exit 61 when everything came to a stop. THEN Waze updated with the crash and standstill traffic.

  • joziebaby Josie Maybe (@joziebaby) reported

    Good grief what is the traffic issue this morning again? Waze is not saying.

  • SergioLizarraga Sergio Lizarraga (@SergioLizarraga) reported

    @AlpineUSA Just installed the i509-WRA-JK in my 2014 Robocon. Apple Carplay Seems to be working fine, except no Maps, Waze, Siri, or phone caller audio. Caller can hear me, but that’s it. I keep on getting dropped when I call support : ( Please advise.

    @DgeziJ @KhoiSan_7 Yeyi ANC has distroyed our country no wonder the lack of service delivery, we waking on the last minutes, they even failing to fix this all because of votes, waze wasibulala ukhongolose ngalama kwere kwere no Human Rights Organizations babo they deserve more than hell

  • KeithVarney13 Keith Varney (@KeithVarney13) reported

    @timbones, Hi, I don't know if you can help, I have been trying over the last few days in getting some Waze road closures updated or road closed, but no one is picking these up and dealing with them, it seems to be a regular problem at he moment.

  • LockeLiberal1 Supreme Leader Locke (@LockeLiberal1) reported

    @joules54228823 @kateeya_ We just finished 1400 mile trip but we broke it up into 3 days of 6 to 8 hours each day. One driver, though. Calculate time using a driving app like Waze because they keep track of road closures, etc. Be patient with hotels; same staffing problems as the airlines.

  • JayaIndos Handy Jayanegara (@JayaIndos) reported

    @kurawa Google maps, waze, error. Bingung 🤭

  • idizaai Eddy De Clercq (@idizaai) reported

    @waze live map seems to have trouble calculating longer routes. Eg Brussels to Geneva doesn't result in any result. Not clear what the issue is, since Brussels to Lyon gives a result. Can you have a look at it and provide a fix pls?

  • RailtonLTN Railton LTN (@RailtonLTN) reported

    @ChrisThinkbiker @JustMeDomB If people drove past your house as it saved five minutes meaning your children were not safe to safe or walk to school/park/nursery you would understand why it is called rat running. Before Google maps/Waze this was not an issue.

  • Miss_TiffyBaby Melanin Fiona (@Miss_TiffyBaby) reported

    Hey. Don't mean to bother you, but is someone working on the network connection over there? I'd like to drive from Point A to Point B without my GPS going, "Okay, you got it the rest of the way" 10 minutes into my drive @waze

  • waze waze (@waze) reported

    @muhamdfaizrosli Hi Faiz! We currently do not offer Malay support on our social channels, but we would love to help with what we can! We understand your concern with the app not working. The issue has been resolved. Waze should be working now. If you still have a issue, please let us know. -Rosa

  • timoey Tim Oey (@timoey) reported

    @AppleSupport Could also be a general iOS problem related to GPS or location services. The crashes mostly seem to occur when using navigation apps and tracking apps like Waze, Google Maps, Strava, RideWithGPS, etc. But sometimes the camera app crashes all on its own with little else running.

  • waze waze (@waze) reported

    @8akuaa Hey there Wazer! We understand your concern with the app not working. But this issue has since been resolved. Waze should be back working now. If you still have issue, please let us know. Thanks, Rosa

  • waze waze (@waze) reported

    @troiansmaslany Hi Wazer! We know what a pain a network error message is. But we are happy to announce that the issue has since been resolved. Waze should be working normally again. Thanks for your patience. If you still have issue, please let us know. -Rosa

  • JeannieKelly Jeannie Kelly 💙💛 (@JeannieKelly) reported

    @catmutha That's usually the problem area! I have Waze on & its giving us a detour 🤔

  • ydoyousaythat Why Do You Say That (@ydoyousaythat) reported

    @waze is there an issue with accessing accounts? Trying to set up on my new phone and getting can't connect when trying to add any type of account. Guest mode works fine. Can't add Google acct, email, or create new one. Uninstalled, cleared storage, etc.

  • sandygirl195355 Sandra Clark (@sandygirl195355) reported from Tuscaloosa, Alabama

    I've got to take a Twitter break now because I have an early doctor's appointment with an ENT. I've had issues with positional inner ear, if I turn my head too far to the left or right I get extremely dizzy, not good! Thought appoint was yesterday, Tried to enter address on Waze

  • shaz5MS Shaz (@shaz5MS) reported

    Why is @waze not working? I’m not getting signal at all. I’m having to revert the the inferior Google maps 🤮

  • chancer_a ChancerOnABike (@chancer_a) reported

    @UKCycleChat Meanwhile on a daily basis, waze creates massive rat runs and ruin quiet roads that could be used for cycling Every day i have this problem as waze pushes drivers to take a small single track farm road on my commute to try and avoid jams at the end of a 80kph road.

  • shaun170 shaun (@shaun170) reported

    @waze It started to work about an hour after I tweeted you. My phones fine and up to date. Wasn’t working on my wife’s phone either so definitely at the time a problem your end. Worked fine since.

  • JamieCarCar Jamie C. (@JamieCarCar) reported

    @DonnaHopes1 @GlennonDoyle @ecosource Instead she had a medical procedure when she took a test that indicated presence of a hormone- in order to prevent a “soul” from ever transpiring. You’re saying you’d not wear a seatbelt to prevent inevitable death in car crash when you see heavy traffic on waze.
