Waze is an outstanding app. I think it's down to preference whether you prefer it over Google Maps. It's better at finding the exact location. For example, when going to Terminal 4 Premier Inn at Heathrow, Google got me as far as the road outside, which was a dual carriageway one way system circling the building. Waze drove me into the car park. The downside of Waze is it's tendency to take the fastest route over the easiest route which can send you down the back streets a bit.

Great... but lacks crucial integration with VAG group cars (VW, Audi, Skoda, Cupra etc) Heads Up Display (HUD). Seems to be a known issue for a LONG time; it can't translate data correctly - so what you see on the Android Screen is correct but it sends the opposite directions to the HUD in several instances, normally roundabouts, telling you to turn left rather than right fot example.

I like this app, but its UI is hard to read. Letters are too small, info like which exit to take in the next roundabout (which is a small number in the middle of a circle shaped graphic) is barely visible. The current speed info sign is ok, but there is a tiny little sign on it showing the actual limit, which is way too small. The roundabout graphic is misleading and not informative. It's a shame that they do not have an ergonomic user interface, hence the two stars. Guys please fix this!
