i used to use papago and sygic, but after trying waze i cant go back to those 2 already. ui is worse but real time traffic is more important to me than anything.

Waze for more up-to-date maps and shortcuts.

I've moved to a brand new neighbourhood for 6 month. Its been completed for more than a year, possibily two and yet GMaps still doesn't have it. Waze have it from the beginning. Headache when people want to come to my house.

Only weakness for waze is it requires constant internet connection. If u are roaming in overseas without data access, then u will have trouble using waze.

u guys seldom travel or always use gps to circle around your neighborhood requires more amazing interface.

For frequent travel we need more features like live traffic, advance searching options as of now only WAZE have it. No point looks good but always get you lost or cant find the place.

I always use it around the city area since I don't know my way around at all.
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 doh.gif


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.

Waze can take you to holland as well. Lately I was facing some weird directions.

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.

I use both - waze and a dedicated PND - garmin.
When I go places that dun have internet connection the PND is a life saver.
PND, with its turn-by-turn voice navigation is good when you are driving alone in unknown territories. You dun have to look at the screen at all!!

if waze can go standalone like garmin or papago, then it will reign as king!

(or have they something like that?)
