You get the same kind of search bar, navigation options and on-screen information as the parent company’s leading GPS app. The UX is pretty similar to Google Maps, which gives it an edge over other apps. Waze also shows a widget with driving time to your saved work or home location. Clicking on a business listing shows a map of the location, and lets you call, visit the website, or get directions there. With Google’s database, Waze can even let you search for numerous local businesses. You can use ‘Waze Moods’ to express yourself with fun images as the profile icon. It might seem annoying at first, but once you’ve used Waze for some time, you get access to loads of customization options for the icon. Just to drive the message home (no pun intended), the profile icon displays a pacifier until you level up. You’ll need to drive at least 100 miles before this app will stop considering you as a beginner. While avoiding freeways and toll roads is a pretty common feature in most GPS solutions, Waze also lets you choose dirt roads to avoid traffic. Unlike other GPS apps, Waze lets you choose between 3D and 2D imaging for maps. You get accident, traffic, police, and construction alerts.
When you open up the app, the on-screen map of the location shows nearby ‘Wazers’.
It can also access Google’s (parent company) huge database of businesses to provide comprehensive search results. With Google as the parent company, Waze has received several navigation upgrades. A power-packed app with real-time updates, social features, and an intuitive interface
