Been using it for yonks, its brill until you go outside of network coverage and suddenly you are on your own.

Awesome App. I use a lot. Only issue for me the routing can be random at times but it will get you there. Just been bought by google who are going to use the live data - probably to make their own maps better. Just hope it doesn't mean Waze will be changed too much.

Great, Google swallows and assimilates another good idea.
I expect it will start routing me past its best sponsors in the near future in the off chance I want an overpriced cardboard cup of sh1te coffee

Nav-free

The traffic has saved me too many times so would now not use one without. Data is not an issue - I have 512MB free and never go over. Only issue is when i'm in channel islands as it costs then.

I use one called M8 on android it is fantastic, needs a data connection to download route but then that's it will work outside network coverage, has same features as mentioned above.

Another thing I like about waze is that someone (occasionally me) has updated all the petrol prices in my area every day.

Always do it - get 8 points for the priviledge. I am a competitive so and so the points are great. No point at all apart from seeing you are in the top 500 points scorers on the UK.

As i thought, nothing good can come from google buying it.

Today I'm 'driving over' adverts for nissan note along the M3 and I have to cancel the banner.

Sorry. but you can f*** off if that happens again

Well I haven't been driving too much this week so not seen anytjing different but I agree - If I get these regularly I will be using another......

Poor show but I guess if you buy something that is free to download and use you need to create an income. I can see people nust leaving the system though if its too obtrusive.

Yeah the Nissan sponsor thing is annoying. Great App though.

I have used waze for about a year now, traffic is great and works as a sat nav well. Don't use much data at all so no worries if you have a capped data plan. All cameras on there just wish speed limits could be shown. And I like the points system.
