Waze speedometer and more ap for our phones

As many of us were trying to help out a member with his rear axle issues it came up information about the "waze" phone ap. I thought rather than us hijack his thread for help on his rear axle I would start a new thread for this ap and any help using it any of you might have. I just installed it and would like any advise using it.

Thanks for all the help you all give on stuff

Larry

Larry, I use it, but mainly as a GPS and a cop warning thing. You can just power it on, and it will find you. Drive along, and it will call out things like "police detected ahead." Or you can punch in directions.

It's a fairly simple interface, punch buttons and it should be self explanatory.

I have had it for a couple years & use it when ever I'm out on the high way to avoid police & traffic. I highly recommend it.

Google uses this for their Google Maps traffic. Not sure that many know Google owns Waze. So if you are anti-Google tracking, then...well you know....

I've used "waze" for several years. Great app. It also does better in Europe than anything else I've used, Garmin or a built-in.
