| In order to use Waze you must be connected to the Waze server. There are four different methods you can use depending upon how anonymous you want to be.
| |
| | |
| | |
| == Login methods ==
| |
| | |
| === Connect as a temporary user (anonymous) ===

However 90% of the steps and procedures are the same, and certainly the editing principals are the same.}}
