Really outdated some ppl.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The purpose of a tool is to use it to your advantage not to show off yes i have a cool interface that maps always get outdated and doesnt give me more benefits

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.

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

I use my eyes to see the path its leading.

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.

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

Waze has completely shit interface sad.gif

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.

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

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?

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

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
*
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.

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?

user posted image

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%
