if only waze got junction view like those in papago

waze my favourite... very godign

the police thingy put every paid GPS app to shame.

yeap. especially many ppl reported 60 to 90% its true.

You can even message to the report to find out whats happening compare to other gps.

google acquire waze
and google map will have live traffic report after this

Look forward to that. Google maps really sux as of this moment

lets hope not. google is becoming EA nowadays. acquire youtube terus jadi shitty with their content id system. google slowly becoming evil.

Damn fvcking ugly interface. You called that better?

google map will not change route........
apple map bring me to holland..............
only waze go the great job!

its the best software base gps now

Really outdated some ppl. Whats the point having the best interface when it keeps you blind whats coming infront but only give u directions? Sometimes direction also wrong and must manually update?

The purpose of a tool is to use it to your advantage not to show off yes i have a cool interface that maps always get outdated and doesnt give me more benefits

Internet down habih sesat......kiciannnn

waze police reporting, n live traffic & navigation. best gps

Waze has been very helpful, hands down. Thank God for data plan.

Here drive best...... ada suara....

got maxis seldom down. In KL except tunnels never down before.

Baik Papago dgn tom tom asia..,.dlm hutan pun x sesat....heh

i delete all other gps... be it papago, sygic... waze all the way

waze got latest maps, suara, gambar, navigation, live traffic, searching through foursquare, waze and google

sebab itu app israel

Dun weri unker your nokia pwns all phone except 3310

Just that waze doesnt speak street names, and sometimes it didnt say weather to go up the bridge on on the left, no bridge..

BTW, in Waze got Avoid tolls/dirt roads/highways.. but dont have a avoid police meh?

because israelian made it.

Here drive dlm WP8....

Yes best gps out there i ever use, but might have prob because it keep switch alternative road when heavy traffic at your usual daily memory road

waze never fail me so far..

Nampak sangat korang plebians tak pernah guna WP8 HERE Drive.

Shit never let me down

My car can travel 10% more mileage on a full tank with waze.. Never met traffic jam since using that godware.

Waze is good in Malaysia, but much less users in SG

Thanks,Sherlock

the pulis function alone is worth it.

pulis won't even bother putting fake alerts, because their primary interest is not deterrence, but rather songlap

the jews made this muslim country a better place for all. alhamdulillah.

indeed not only that there even a feature we can share with our friends to see where we are or see who reach the place first.

I used that once, and discovered new routes to take to get to the same place. not bad yo

the upvote function is gooding. and they actually have algorithms to detect if cops are the ones who putted the warnings on waze. lol they deserve market supremacy

Using only waze/ nokia here maps .

as good as it is, however this apps still uses data (3G/4G). what happens when there is place where there is no signal?

back to the signboard.

Waze very gooding

Now can vroom vroom in kl with confidence

So Waze pay you how much again?

Google maps and apple maps have been working fine for me. Pretty good too.

Waze has completely shit interface

If only got full 3G NS highway...polis like to hide at those blindspots

Maxis full bar all the way with H+ Confirmed

the ui is large enough to be use while driving / waiting for traffic light.
better than Papago , gmap ui.

haha samsung

I use maxis from JB to KL using NS highway....3G quite bad some areas...

waze would be the best if it reports every single direction like the MyVi GPS.... especially at some road, it won't mention to keep left or go straight even though it is not a highway exit, therefore a good sense of road names is also needed when using waze, can't just rely upon the voice command like MyVi...

force it to use H+ mine stable all the way

i dont really rely on the voice only because i am not using iphone.

I use my eyes to see the path its leading.

why you use Google rather than Bing? xD

means your eyes is not on the road?!

i only use here map

waze need data plan to work, and interface damn ugly

both. You dont need to stare 1 hour on the gps while driving. Reach the turn just have quick have a peak because my phone is 5.5 inch and 5.8inch to make sure the path leads to which junction.

the only problem i faced while using waze was my phone overheat while i put it on my dashboard for prolonged period of time due to the sun

Was driving halfway out of sudden thunderstorm.
Panic man. My waze out of a sudden lost the data signal n I was lost. So stopped at roadside to wait for rain to ease

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 like it ~

Like digi says its time to change dude. Using Maxis very stable in H+ regardless what weather condition.

Or u using old generation phone could be the cause too weaker gps module?

lose data signal will not get you lost as the route is still there.... while losing GPS signal is the thing u should fear

Its the data line problem. Not the gps signal.
When thunderstorms come u cant find the location at all due to the weak data line. Has got nothing to do with gps as the phone sends in ur gps signal to waze server to update your location

btw hor lose signal the navigation is still there. It becomes like offline navigation

waze cause kena beli dengan google

imagine google combine the awesome google maps with the excellence from waze

can kiss other gps goodbye

macam connecting people?

it does effect as well if your car have v-cool tinting

i like google map cause their are the most up to date

but super plain

heck i test using both when going on a trip to Pangkor recently i'll find waze more easier and accurate compare to google

the only advantage google has is the accuracy

damn even shortcut they know

Noted. Will pretend like i care.

I tried both but end up still use WAZE.

WAZE also alot shortcut but depending on the setting you put like avoid highway, avoid tolls, Shortest time and fastest time it affect how to the gps reroute to your destination. If mau alot shortcut change it to avoiding hiighway and toll then put shortest time.

Me also, but i find a good dash holder that can hide under hot sun, find place between your leg and best view around car HU

Sorry to say but I still prefer Nokia Maps over Waze here.

1 reason, Nokia maps don't need DATA connection. It beats waze hands down, oh not to mention. Nokia maps have live traffic reporting capabilities too.

recruiting, the more the merrier. you get live update from others as well.

waze is not bad, but i notice the rerouting is quite slow
many features is great but it eat batteries & quota

i think sygic & nokia drive is much better in implementation
& safety usage wise

sifu i know you professional in gps but since you said eat quota eeehhhh i use so much waze in a month also less than 30MB a month?



Eat battery? eeeee i know you professional so dedicated gps battery without charger can use 1month?

Wow you really professional in gps all those navigation company should hire you as their talk person. Please la for god sake please go try use a nokia drive and you know what is battery hogging.

You say you never use gps navigation before also people wont laugh at you la.

Use less than 30minutes from 100% can reach 20%

use waze very gooding butttt drain my phone battery like maddd

+1

how long u use it?
usually i use it drive from penang to KL, quota eat abt 40mb
with map cache on

Maybe your other stuff downloading crap. I travel to penang and kuantan every week also never reach 40MB.

the downside is need internet connection to work... poor connection will make the app choke coz can't load the road ahead...

travelling in city no problem at all, but once u enter rural area, u're farked....

if digi where also fuk. celcom very unstable. But maxis boleh la.

nope it is per apps usage

as long as u already set the navigation route, it will run eventhough on gprs signal.

except if u screwed up, and the app need to re-route...

i already paste my navigation data usage. You only say wo sifu. I know you are professional but also must prove right mr. professional.

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.

Sygic map very messy, quite confusing.

haha true but it will still load. just that not as fast. done that back in sabah last week. banjaran crocker only have gprs signal

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.

waze sucks , papago fans here

Which is y I could not switch to waze even thout it's functions are great. Hope they fix it

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.

nah, it eat data but still not much to me if compare with other app

I'll try out 3D mode tmr... see whether it can help me better at juctions...

the best: at toll booth, "bang camne nak pegi ipoh?"

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


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.

indeed

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.

just use wAZE to check the traffic

then use others

for me,sygic works well

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!!

jew made this. time to open facebook and boycott..
