If you typed in the 3.xxxx first, you'll end up dunno where BTW anyone know how to key in coordinate to the waze? Added: type into the search area.

QUOTE(idoblu @ Dec 17 2013, 02:55 AM) Waze can take you to holland as well. Lately I was facing some weird directions. i suspect this is face problem? Possible? Never have such issue except if your car got strong tinting would effect beside that. Sometimes gps does that because its routing to another route or u-turn is turn off. as i said do you think possible face problem?Eg. 1. Wanting to go kelana jaya LRT station. I'm on Jln Majlis, suppose to turn left on LDP, crazy Waze told me to turn right. Eg. 2. Wanting to go Puchong from KL. I took Mex, Waze told me to exit at Putra Jaya instead of Bukit Jalil. When I exited and waited at the Sri petaling traffic light to u-turn into Kesas, Waze still tells me to go straight and turn towards the city, into NPE. |

QUOTE(ysc @ Dec 17 2013, 12:05 AM) I always use it around the city area since I don't know my way around at all. you funny dude you said you not fanboy but clearly fanboy.So far Google & Apple maps have been accurate. As for traffic, Google maps includes traffic as well. In fact, I don't know why I bother joining this maps-fanboy thread... I'm sure most users who are supporting one side has not spent sufficient time testing out the other apps anyway. Totally one sided, no one makes proper comparisons or provide constructive criticism edit- Also I run my navigations on 2G only. After an hour of jam with GPS turned on, I still have >80% battery left Also a reason that I have never used a powerbank since using smartphones for 5-6 years. Never once. The problem if you only use 1 gps your perspective and understand limited to 1. Try use different gps because so obvious you trying talk kok mr. fanboy. If you wanna make comparison also make a proper or constructive comparison not blindly support? 2nd Dont believe me ask those who say they dont use the powerbank mostly they buy phone to standby or not much friends on social networks so their phone tend to last that long. Dont believe me google for your phone manufacturer and see what the average battery drain. 3rd GPS only drop 20% you think apa from your house drive 5mins then nah i only drop 20% isnt that a joke? Please go make your research If you are using an old phone possible most modern or current phones are running dual or quad core or octa core so their processor are more powerful so it tend to make more battery but faster to complete the task. Even you are on 2G network the screen needs power, audio needs power and gps needs power. 4th Please go research how google traffic works no point blindly support its hard to explain to you since you never try others. We have nothing against other gps but as of now after trying we feel waze is better because of the live traffic reporting not showing your fanboys but pretend not a fanboy but you are the pure fanboy get it?

oh besides lack of junction view, another thing i hate about waze is the search function
1 ) i can't search a shop name of "sin lean heang" at certain states. let's say i am at kedah now, but i going penang, and want to search for that shop which is located at penang, i can't specifically search the shop at penang 2) waze will not search everything i type. it will search each part of the word and give me the result. what i mean is if let's say i search "sin lean heang" it will give me the result of any POI with the name of "sin" "lean" "heang" inside . hence, whatever shop name that is "hua sin", "leng heang" ect ect all will pop up do u guys get what i mean? lol for papago usually won't like that, but you need to be very specific with the name. if the name you key in is correct, but inside the map it's another name then you are gone. hence i hope waze can let me search a POI of certain state, and then gives me the option to choose all words must be match when i search something |
