    The biggest problem with CarPlay is enabling it to synchronize with Tesla FSD. If you input a destination in FSD using Tesla’s native navigation system, it isn’t going to match what you see in Apple Maps, Waze, or Google Maps. Integration is a lot more complicated than it seems.

    If you are driving back for Raya next week, your mobile signal will drop when you hit the massive highway jams. ​Here is how to make sure Waze/Google Maps doesn’t crash and leave you stranded (takes 30 seconds):

    @USSMogger @chefhealthcoach @grok Jews are disproportionately educated, hard-working and innovators. Of course there are a disproportionate number of rich. And Nobel Prize Winners We gave the world Einstein, Waze, DiskOnKey,Pillcam, Drip Irrigation,ICQ, solar heaters… You? Moonshine, bad grammar & antisemitism

    @GamingNaRoli I don’t even have Waze bro 😭😭, im not used to having such kind of problems

    @premnsikka You are right. But I am afraid money is not the only issue. It’s also about the quality of road works or “patching”. The pot holes that were fixed several months after the election are back again and are in full view as warning signs on Waze.

    The issue with Waze is that they try too hard

    Did you know navigation apps can actually make traffic worse? 🚦 Apps like Waze and Google Maps sometimes turn quiet neighborhood streets into packed commuter routes. Here’s why. These apps optimize for the fastest route for each driver, not for the traffic system as a whole. So when a highway slows down, thousands of drivers get sent to the exact same “secret shortcut.” What used to be a local trick suddenly becomes a new traffic jam. It’s like everyone discovering the same hidden restaurant at once. The line gets long. Service slows. The secret stops working. That’s why some cities are now blocking cut-through traffic in residential neighborhoods. Navigation apps can save you time. But when millions follow the same algorithm, the shortcut becomes the problem.

    @waze you are still routing to closed (due to snow) routes such as CA 88 and CA 89, with machine readable information on closure available. Please fix

    @North_Resists @0liviajulianna Waze is Chinese and had previous issues. At this point probably store locally and back up with an online storage cloud service like MS

    @CP24 Maybe she's too retarded to drive, the rates are well posted, there is a toll calculator online, even Waze calculates the toll for you... so if with all that you're still 'surprised', then that's a you problem.

    I wonder if there was a way @waze and @fixmystreet could share data. All those potholes on Waze directly into fix my Street.

    This dude just needs to use Waze and all his problems would be fixed. Minus rolling a car over because of speeding.

    @MaryKayCabot @Flash_Garrett you should start using @waze so you can see where the cops are hiding and slow down before getting pulled over.

    @Mr_Derivatives 1. Who do you think came up with the iAds? (Hint: it wasn’t Tim Apple) 2. Apple Maps is inferior to Google Maps and even Waze anyway. They hold a tiny market share 3. Google Maps has been already running ads in the app and has not moved one iota of users away This is a non-issue

    @7hashtag7 iPhone running Waze, Bluetooth speaker, only issue is if you get hit by an SUV, you’d be dead.

  • USAF_Veteran57
    JimStrohmeier (@USAF_Veteran57) reported

    I think the Gas Buddy app is just another BS data collection app, like the WAZE app. Waze shows user reports of radar cops on the road. Too many times, the cop is not even there - which means busybodies who want drivers to slow down are corrupting the reports.

  • e_considine
    The Sentient Dog Group (@e_considine) reported

    @The_Suburbanist I would say the obvious problem with your original idea is coordination. How do you coordinate 'paying people' not to drive into an area to limit specific traffic jams? If Waze offered that I suspect some people would try to make money by driving into rush hour traffic.

    Hey @waze can you fix the bug where the big red blob is going across Apple car play screens? It’s extremely distracting 🙃

  • synthspaceship
    Synth Spaceship (@synthspaceship) reported

    @sama @sama You know, the problem with Waze was that even though it routed you through different backstreets, you ultimately didn't get to the destination much faster than good old Google or Apple Maps. It was the distraction of taking a bunch of random backstreets that created the illusion of movement/progress. Sometimes you just need to get on the main road and get to work.

    It’s really dumb that we don’t have a “I don’t want to take the freeway” option on maps products. This is needed @waze @googlemaps Constantly getting the dumbest routes wasting time and actively putting me in MORE traffic. This algo is broken.

  • notsure390
    NotSure (@notsure390) reported

    @chutneylife I find the FSD drives better than I do, but that the navigation system sometimes fails. The car takes the wrong turn or gets lost. That is confusing, since Waze and others solved the navigation issue years ago.

    @RichardWellings Get Waze like me and just slow down for the cameras and police radars. Never any points. 👍

    The minute I was logging off the office computer, Waze in my phone was alerting me of a crash right at the entrance of my condo. By the time I was sitting in the car, traffic was so bad that it was suggesting wild routes home... in short, almost 45 mins late, I'm here.

    @MrAndyNgo @VenturaReport I'm just convinced they're jobless, bored and trolling. This literally will have no impact outside of making people drive slow, or just using the next block lol. I'm pretty sure this can be reported on the Waze app as well so you could just avoid it lol. . .
