Waze: Drive with Confidence
Waze is a free simple navigation app providing you with maps, GPS, traffic Alerts, and live navigation. Perhaps, the best its virtue is that it guarantees the traffic accuracy. You will see what is happening around and ahead when you drive.
Design and Usability 10/10
Everybody can afford this app because it doesn't require to open an account when you are going to use it. When you enter, you see the maps being easy to read. The search system is rather efficient and fast.
Still, I should confess that the interface does not look very attractive. It is even confusing a little bit, and you can find it rather difficult to cope with. The menu buttons are tiny. When you manage to tap them, you have the menu full of sections with options. If you want, you can apply the voice command, but you should find it somewhere in the menu. In addition, sometimes when the car stops, the pop-ups with advertisements appear, and that is annoying.
Key Functions 10/10
Waze is regarded as a powerful app because it can boast of the diverse and constantly updated information delivered by its users creating the most accurate maps. Of course, the software arranges the data and offers reliable traffic data, which you can view on the screen. This app considers any events preventing you from following the chosen route, and any restrictions are represented here. You will know about the incidents, police presence, and traffic jams for sure. The app will change the routing to avoid the obstacles and reach the destination quickly.
When you are on route, the app will notify you of incidents on the road from time to time. The radius can be specified by you. You will see the pop-ups with the vital information influencing your choices. There are all possible reasons for notifications provided both if the destination is chosen, and if it is not chosen that is why you’d better use the app when you are driving. You will know the fuel prices too.
Security 10/10
The app is safe, but taking into account the specific purpose and structure of this software, of course, you will share your location with the other users.
Compatibility 10/10
It is compatible with most mobile devices, but you should mind that it works best when there is a stable strong mobile phone signal.
Efficient Tool
Download Waze if you want to use the more reliable app compared with its analogs at the market. It is able to connect to social media and includes even game mechanics inviting you to find treats on the map. You can enjoy the Map Chat feature, leave your own comments and pictures right on the map so that the others could have detailed information. There are a lot of features which are definitely useful, but you should understand that you will hardly use all of them when you are driving.
