While useful, they have to be reported...so it depends how many Wazers are in the area

Use is and theres about 120 wazers in the imediate area normally, they report traffic/cops etc. Great app, and the nzvi seems to work better then google maps as far as getting you there faster and better routes

Thats not a bad number, my commute is fairly well traveled, I probably end up seeing about 2/3 of the hazards/cops that occur, and I report the rest

Also, I thought Google was purchasing Waze? Hopefully the two will start using the same maps, because google's traffic reporting is way better, but the other road hazards that Waze covers is invaluable.

for sure, in hawaii googles traffic reporting saved me from an hour of traffic. But it seemed like in SLC google sent me out of the way where waze put me on the most direct route.

Do you mean the layout, or the App icon? It looks like a little ghost.

jaime3 · 12-02-2013, 01:44 PM

If you enter "Waze" in App Store or Google Play, it will be one of the first to come up. The icon looks like a little speech bubble with wheels and a smiley face, or a little smiley ghost, depending on how you view it. Also look for the number of downloads. The correct one will have many many more downloads.
