People power meets the open road in this amazing navigation app. Waze’s crowd-sourced alerts come from real drivers, not algorithms, delivering info you won’t see anywhere else to keep your commute flowing. The friendly interface and convenient detour routing really help the app shine, and its social-network integration make road trips with buddies a blast.
Best of the best

The best nav app . I use it all the time. Ideea: do you guys think you can syncronise the app with the weather reports and give warnings of bad weather through the app itself? You can issue warnings related to extreme weather and floods along the route and modify the route so that the driver will avoid those areas. I think you can also add earthquakes and forest fires (greece road trips anyone?) to warnings issued by waze along the trip. That would be really helpfull.Another ideea: add car service and tire service locations because in my many trips i had to stop and search for tire service along the route, thus wasting precious time. You can add a voice comand so that waze can find these services fast and re route the driver towards the proper car service.
Update suggestion
BogdanMirea
I would like to suggest an option to share live location with a specific person or a group of friends, directly from the app. In addition, the app to display in real-time the positions of those who have shared it with you, similar to live location from messaging apps.This function could run independently of navigation in the sens of just showing the friends location on the map, without interfering with their own route or navigation.This feature could be useful for making the coordination between users more easily, especially when meeting or travelling in groups.

More display options

It would be nice if you could have more details via CarPlay as well on the digital cockpit on VW side and as well on the HUD in this way it will be the perfect option. Warnings side if set from the car display once you pressed and until you finish, the warning is set where you finished not where you pressed , it would be nice once you pressed the alert bubble to set that location . As well you have way more many options on the phone side than on the car side related to accidents, police and so on . Good job .
This version includes several bug fixes and performance improvements.
