Waze Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Roshan - GoSats.io (@roshanaslam21) reportedIf you are having trouble navigating with Google Maps / Waze in the Middle East due to GPS jamming, try Apple Maps. Somehow that’s working.
-
Hugh (@pinch_weasel) reported@waze I briefly explored but found no working bathrooms 🤪
-
Nick Johnson (@NickJ_UK) reported@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.
-
Non-Linear (@nonlinear_james) reported@HermanBovens @Teslarati Tesla uses Google Maps which uses Waze community edits on it. Tesla throwing out google maps probably isn't in the cards. Maybe using Tesla's own hyper accurate maps as overlays to Google, and maybe FSD could contribute road closures etc. (and use them from Waze to fix some stuff I've recently scene!)
-
SoftwareEngineer2021 (@SoftwareDev2021) reported@MarioNawfal Google also had it configured in such a way that if you turned off microphone permissions for the Google app, many of their other apps would crash or not work like Maps and Waze forcing you to turn the permissions back on to get them to work. Based on that it appears that it was intentional and not an "oops" moment.

NotSure (@notsure390) reportedI don't see how Tesla can use its FSD for the Cybercab. My Model Y got lost twice today. I think the problem is that Elon Musk does not want to use Waze. His in-house navigation system is really awful.

ame-chan (@ame_fan__) reportedmore driving soon, i like driving manual cars... and if waze isn't on i can go a bit above the limit for new drivers... so nice... only problem: headache :(
-
AMPed UP (@DoublepPradhan) reported@TexasTSLA @robotaxi This is what we can not have. Why? Those people will now bad mouth Tesla saying they are slow , can’t trust them, etc. Always assume right on red is allowed unless specified otherwise!! Or have Navi data accurate like Waze.
-
nick (@nick41808809) reported@rrouccc @DeanCoombes Some do activate. You can find plenty of fines under 79mph if you search for a couple of minutes. Cameras also don't flash during the day. Use Waze and just slow down a bit.
-
Slinger Auto Zone LLC (@SlingerAuto) reported@saswat101 @waze Imagine this: instead of just a "pothole ahead" alert, the app provides exact GPS coordinates and dimensional photos so crews know exactly what they’re dealing with before they even arrive. Even better? It can use traffic data to pinpoint the absolute best time to fix them—when traffic is at its lowest—to minimize the headache for everyone. This is the kind of data-driven city tech we need.

Joel Muthama (@muthamajoelKE) reported@kelvinotieno10 @the_sambu Of anything is made by man,it can be broken by a man. The builders of waze reverse-engineered the system
-
Joseph Summerhays (@YosefSomerhaus) reported@guychristensen_ Yeah I first noticed something was weird when I turned off location services and waze stopped working and Google Maps kept working (just without my location). Why do you need my location to show me a map?
-
Kenneth Charles (@KenMCharles) reported@Teslarati Honestly, not a fan of Waze. Used it on a rental w/Android Auto(AA) and got fed up w/the stale traffic reports and AA not always working when I started the car so I could drive to a destination where I needed directions.
-
Presentation Coach Ray (@PresentationRay) reported@waze I spent 20 minutes trying to point out a private, gated entrance via the app today. It is too much trouble. Google Maps updated, but you won't get it from me if I have to use the app. 26808-26810 Haywood Worm Farm Rd 28.737599, -81.888060
-
TACO 🌮 (@ThatoEastside) reported@kaizen_ceo @BulawayoForever Why was it SA's responsibility to take him out? As citizens who knew the election was unfairly won why didn't you take a stand and remove him yourselves? Waze wasinyela wenja we have our own problems
