Does anybody else use WAZE app in car?

You’ll be surprised how many people use it, it really is a well thought out app. Also if you keep it on while driving, you log miles, and are able to unlock new moods, ability to post reports and stuff. If you need to know who around your area uses it, just link the app to Facebook, you should find fellow Wazers there.

If not you can join a group like I did, who commute to the same place everyday. Its pretty cool some people even message you and let you know if they haven’t seen you on the road, (to remind you or make sure you aren’t still asleep) since you both bump heads around the same time in the morning. I actually do see the same people every morning on my commute, and some of them are Wazers! Anyways good luck with your Indy trip, just add a group from there ahead of time so you get their info.

I downloaded this a couple of months ago. Love it!

VDC_OFF · 09-26-2012, 01:24 PM

Tried it out this morning for the first time. Was surprised to see so many people on there. Cops were being reported as soon as they entered the freeway before I could even report it.

Been using it for a day now and I have to say I am impressed

blackcherry20 · 09-26-2012, 02:43 PM

I have it on my Droid thanks to this thread, looking for it on the ipad now.

SurfDog · 09-26-2012, 06:14 PM

I started this thread kind of like a public service announcement. I'm hoping the word spreads in the forum. This is one of those must have kinda things for many of us Zoomers.

Because I'm a knucklehead?

I've been using this for a few days now, seems like a good app.

One huge question though, does it notify you in any way when you are nearing a reported police area? If so, do I have to be in navigate mode or can I just drive around with waze open and still be notified?
