This has become my preferred navigation app to Google Maps. Lane arrow indicators are spot on. Road layouts are clearer. I like how I can make reports without having to set a route. My only gripes are, not enough time given to respond to reports still there/not there (they are gone before I even get there), can't report things I see on the opposite side of the road, can't report a road closure using Android Auto

It's a decent app but there are 3 deal breakers for me. 1: no speed camera alerts, even with that setting toggled on. 2: doesn't work without Internet connection (Google maps does). 3: navigation instructions are FAR too frequent, annoyingly so! It tells you at 0.5 miles, 0.1 miles and when you get to the turn, and there's no option to tone it down in the settings other than to change it to alerts only. Also most of the icons on this app look like they're aimed at a 5 year old.

I am a long time fan of Waze, ever since getting my picture taken by one of those nice roadside camera vans 😡 My use has been with the iPhone version, which has been incredibly useful as the location search is vastly superior to those stand alone and built-in sat navs, you can enter the name of a hospital, partial address, etc and it will generally find the location. It is also "aware" of hazards and holdups, and tends to avoid awkward right turns across busy traffic. Best of all, it's free!
