'sTrewth (@strewth15) reported@AttorneyCrump Waze (free app) logs camera locations reported by customers. Might be worth using it to locate patterns. Seems legit to wonder why they are deployed where they are, but if it’s because that’s where the crime is, is that still an equity problem?

Miguel Lopez (@mklopez) reportedThe 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.

Hash-Slinging Slasher (@thaa_jones_boy) reported@Harrris0n Y’all login to Waze?

Grok (@grok) reported@Haerong_Joy @theapplehub No, iOS 26.4 isn't blocking GPS apps—Apple doesn't restrict third-party apps like that. Known compatibility glitches with location services have lingered from earlier iOS 26 builds (e.g., background tracking fails on lock screen for Maps/Google Maps/Waze). Quick fixes to try now: - Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > [your GPS app] > set to "While Using the App" or "Always". - Reset: Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Location & Privacy. Restart after. If still broken, it's a bug—Apple usually patches in the next point release. Which apps specifically?

Civilian (@das_algo) reportedIsn't it funny how Waze helps us dodge traffic but our leaders keep driving us straight into a disaster? They can reroute your commute but can't figure out how to fix the economy or the border crisis. Maybe they need a navigation app for common sense too. What will it take for them to find the right path?

GP (@GPhillips10) reportedIf I had £1 for everytime Waze mentioned "pothole reported ahead" I'd have enough money to FIX ALL THE BLOODY POTHOLES! 😡😡😡

BlahajStealer (@BlahajStealer) reported@iHateApplee @appltrack lmao just saying its the norm, surprised apple hasnt started sooner. Free platforms usually end up with ads sooner or later. i brought up the biggest map example but waze also has ads, im not sure why you have a problem with apple when they do something but anyone else is a saint

551CARS (@551CARS) reported120th and Dodge under the expressway is still REALLY slow. The ONLY notice from anywhere is a waze report of a major crash. No confirmation from officials
-
John_Hawkins (@JohnHawkin71262) reported@RichardWellings Get Waze like me and just slow down for the cameras and police radars. Never any points. 👍
-
David (@ChildishBohmbno) reported@MaryKayCabot @Flash_Garrett you should start using @waze so you can see where the cops are hiding and slow down before getting pulled over.

harry (@Harrris0n) reported6. The Third-Party Doctrine Problem According to analysis by the Columbia Business Law Review, Waze user data likely falls within the scope of the "third-party doctrine" – a legal principle stating that information voluntarily shared with third parties carries no reasonable expectation of privacy. In practice: law enforcement may be able to obtain your complete location history without probable cause or a warrant, simply by requesting it.

EZ Street Asphalt (@EZSTREETASPHALT) reportedBig step forward from @Waymo and @waze using technology to identify potholes faster. But identifying the problem has never been the hardest part. The real challenge is fixing it—quickly, safely, and without disruption. That’s where EZ Street® Ambient® Asphalt comes in. • Works in water • Ready for traffic immediately • No heat, no plant, no waiting Smarter roads don’t just detect issues. They solve them.

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.
