Waze Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Jack (@jackcoder0) reportedFirst why most drivers never discover CarPlay's app ecosystem. When you connect your iPhone to CarPlay for the first time: your CarPlay-compatible apps appear automatically. Apple Maps. Apple Music. Messages. Phone. Podcasts. The Apple defaults. Third-party CarPlay apps don't appear until you download them on your iPhone. They're not promoted on the CarPlay screen. There's no "CarPlay App Store" in the dashboard. No "Discover New Apps" section. No recommendations. Download a compatible app from the App Store on iPhone, and it should appear the next time you connect. The discovery problem: you have to know an app exists, download it on your iPhone, and then it appears in CarPlay. If you don't know Waze has CarPlay support you'll never see it on your dashboard. If you don't know Overcast exists Apple Podcasts remains your only option. The result: 90% of CarPlay dashboards show 5 Apple apps. The 300+ third-party apps sit in the App Store undiscovered, uninstalled, unused. The reviewer's rule: "CarPlay's app ecosystem is a secret menu at a restaurant. The menu exists. The apps are excellent. But nobody hands you the menu. You have to know to ask for it."

Amy Taylor ✝️🌵 (@AmyTaylorTx) reported@waze y’all need to get it together. None of your reporting is working today

AnonyMassLawyer (@anonymasslawyer) reported@Suzybeau1 @Martine05885145 The WiFi login time came from Karen’s phone. Guarino’s testimony. Uncontested. The GPS data can be wrong within its stated error range, which was very small while Waze was activated.

Tina D Smith (@SmithTD123) reported@MagaSgt @waze You should do it! I guess I should get the app now to show my support. I prefer a level-headed approach to issues rather than tantrums.

Craig Jones (@CraigJones62051) reported@BuckeyeEmpire Waze gives you at least half a mile to slow to 73 and look for the *******. Use it.

Anele Simelane (@AneleCebekulu) reportedStill can’t believe that they water people hit an electric cable that the electricity people have to fix and we’re going on 48hrs of no power in Bryanston 😭 Yoh City of Johannesburg waze wasenza!

Weave (@diaper) reported@ChuckCook It's aggravating to me because it's obvious mapmate or whatever mapping program they use has such bad speed limit data in it, and the car acts on that. Why couldn't they just use Waze for speed limits? If there's a problem with a speed limit in Waze, just hit the report button and a local editor fixes it within a day or so. Source: I've been a local Waze editor for 12 years.

The People's Party (@ESideEnt57) reported@hippyygoat Negative jurisdiction is in America you can sue WAZE contract for attempting to subvert jurisdiction. As jurisdiction in held were the issue took place.

Jack (@jackcoder0) reported1. Waze the speed trap app that saves you $200+ in tickets per year. The 2026 CarPlay interface for Waze is cleaner than ever, offering crowd-sourced data on speed traps, potholes, and traffic jams without cluttering your digital real estate. Waze is the one CarPlay app every driver should install regardless of whether they use it for navigation. Waze is the go-to CarPlay app for drivers who regularly deal with heavy traffic. Its community-sourced reporting system alerts you to accidents, road hazards, speed traps, and police presence in real time, often before other apps catch up. Real-time alerts from other Waze drivers: police ahead. Speed trap. Red light camera. Construction. Hazard on the road. Car stopped on the shoulder. Object in the road. You're driving 72 in a 65. A Waze alert pops up: "Police reported ahead." You slow to 65. You pass the speed trap. No ticket. The driver behind you without Waze gets pulled over. One avoided speeding ticket: $150-300. One avoided red light camera ticket: $75-150. Waze is free. The math is obvious. Beyond speed traps: Waze frequently finds faster routes than Apple Maps during heavy traffic because its routing algorithm uses real-time data from millions of active drivers, not just historical traffic patterns. If a highway exit is suddenly backed up because of a fender bender reported 3 minutes ago Waze reroutes you before Apple Maps knows it happened.

Ian Bennetts (@IanBennettsAUS) reported@freeloader2021 Is the problem FSD the Driver or FSD the Navigator. I think map data needs lanes selection like waze

caroline ౨ৎ (@MIN0RLYSTUCK) reportedHEY @waze IM GOING TO CRASH MY CAR WITHOUT THE JONAS BROTHERS GIVING ME DIRECTIONS

Lauran™ (@lauranruddy) reported@NYSDOTHV Any update on when this will reopen? Also, are you going to fix the signs stating that it's closed? And maybe alert @waze that it's still closed? They routed me there the other day and wah wah, still closed. Thanks.

Big Belly (@_ImJustTy) reportedThe @waze app has become a PAIN in my *** over these past few months. At first I thought it may have been a CarPlay issue or due to my data, but it’s not! It doesn’t update in a timely fashion like it used to and I end up having to bust a u turn because I’ve gone the wrong way
-
Brusimm.com (@Brusimm) reportedDear #Waze, wtf is your problem today, telling me to take the long way home. The way I've never taken, while my usual, shorter route was just fine??? I remember when waze was the better option. And now... ? SMH.

Robby94LS (@Robby94LS) reported@AnxiousHolly I stopped doing it awhile back too. Only reason I do it now is if an app IS having an issue. Or Waze… it never wants to let go of GPS signal otherwise.
