@greta GPS has 2 major issues in trusting it. -Pay to update - most don't so don't get updated maps. Doesn't need constant internet to connect which is good thing. -Using phone app (waze or other) is dependent on internet connection. So DDoS or dead zone makes it useless. Read a map. 2/

@rebel1996 @tijmenschreur @itskyleconner Yeah you can’t type directions into Waze or ABRP because it says keyboard not available and there’s no option to use voice either. I did reach to ABRP and they said they were already working on an update for android automotive. So that’s good at least

@_serachisrael Your problem is you don’t try - you do. You wouldn’t even look to see how tall the Everest - you just start moving. Like when we went to Safed and the Waze wasn’t working and you said “it’s impossible to get lost just follow the signs.” Your mind biases a problem for solutions.

@RThefish1213233 @mustyy56 @GPrime85 Those are frustrating issues—Google Maps can glitch on barriers, direction changes, and one-ways. Try Waze for crowd-sourced real-time updates, or Apple Maps for better lane guidance. If it's a persistent bug, report it in the app. What's your go-to nav alternative?

Charging Station Poem I slow it down But they go, go, go. They pass me on the right Like I'm in slo mo. But they're gonna regret They don't know what I know. Google and Waze both say there's po-po.

Haha, isn’t that the truth? Even a passenger can’t enter directions, as the keyboard is not available while driving. The same issue arises with Google Maps, but with Google Maps, you can use your voice to navigate to destinations, unlike Waze or ABRP. I’m sure they’ll add voice navigation eventually. The point I was trying to make in my original post was that all the reviewers who review Android automotive OS comment on how it has the Play Store and is great because you can download third-party apps. However, it’s not that good. For instance, there’s no Apple Music app, and the other mapping apps don’t work well. The Audible app also doesn’t sync your book listening progress back to the Audible cloud. For example, if I listen to a book on my phone and stop at chapter 2, then open Audible in the truck, it will start where I left off on my phone. However, when I switch back to my phone after driving, it’s not synced back to my phone. There are just so many things that could be improved with this Android automotive OS. I do love the truck though, but coming from a Tesla it is seriously lacking in the software department.

@BasedClarenceT @SnazzyLabs Never happened to me. Wireless Android Auto with Waze, Music app and charging is basically as heavy usage as it can get, my S24U warms yes, of course, but doesn't slow down at all

@waze I understand the benefit of connecting my calendar to waze. But why does it have to tell me when to leave for shabbat? I am not going anywhere. It need to understand not all calendar entries have a destination. In this case location is a city which explains the issue but I want a better way to exclude it.

@waze @TheDankStar_ There is trouble with getting a route for long distance drives and it just said there’s is an error everytime so that would be a good thing to look at

@SomeSingerDrew @waze I keep having this happen too. Most recently today, nearly 6 months after your tweet. @waze this is not okay. Low MAU metrics should indicate a problem to be fixed, it is NOT a problem with the users to be fixed by overruling their configuration preferences. Don't rig your KPIs.

(@Thanx4AllDaFish) reported
@waze It's not an individual issue, it's a platform issue. You guys have your directions set to "idiot" mode across all versions of your app. It used to just tell you when you needed to turn, and now it tells you when you don't need to turn. It's annoying and unnecessary.

I need your help My current domain is giving me so much trouble in indexing that I’m honestly thinking about changing the name of my app The app is like Waze for parking enforcement. Crowd sourced information about where meter maids are can help drivers pay less at the meter and avoid tickets, just in the same way that Waze gives you a heads up on when you should stop speeding because there’s a cop ahead. My working title is Park Remark, but I’m looking for something else. What should I call this thing?
