Using Waze feels like having a friend in the passenger seat who's constantly checking traffic for you. It’s great at finding shortcuts and alerting you to things like accidents, speed traps, or roadblocks ahead. Sometimes, though, it takes you on a route that seems weird or a bit too complicated, but most of the time, it gets you where you need to go faster than you’d expect. Thank you Waze ♥️

I'm a professional driver, and rely on GPS to pickup & deliver my private car clients. In reviewing this app as an alternate GPS app, I've come away with the following. STENGTHS The user interface is very friendly. I loved the fact that you can easily report issues on the route (IE: accidents, and more. WEAKNESSES The GPS would route through neighborhoods instead of on a main street, and given the same information as to Google maps, WAZE went to a wrong address. Fun app but inaccurate.

The app takes up to two minutes to open and be ready to navigate. About 2 in 10 uses I have to restart the app because it closed on its own. When it works, it works well. When it doesn't, it seems to be during a rush hour or during an alternate route when waze knowledge would be most helpful. Theist irritating aspect of the app is that it forces audio ducking, and mutes all audio from all apps running on the app when it gives audio instructions. Waze has the speaker. Let other apps manage BT.
