Waze is fun and sophisticated navigation app. In the many areas where wazers have worked on the maps for just a couple of months, it is already far superior to commercial GPS navigation aids. Waze is the best and keeps getting better.

But it is not perfect. None of these problems stop Waze from working and being useful. But they are listed here as a warning, and so you know they are being worked on.

• Navigation problems
• False standstill and heavy traffic reports due to no pause option
• Wandering cities
• Some roads are reverting back to an unconfirmed state (back to Pacman roads with dots on them). Waze is investigating this. Please report any roads that have reverted in this forum thread
• Issues with Cartouche, the map editor
• Known Waze service issues
• Client device problems specific to a device model or operating system
