One of the most frequently used navigation apps, Waze has been given a good overhaul by Google. Waze 4.0 is the next update that iOS users can get off the App store, while Android users are expected to wait just a little longer.
Among the updates include faster traffic response time, a newly designed interface that’s cleaner, simpler to use and less cluttered. Another notable enhancement is the one tap navigation function, which makes it less of a hassle when you need to find a location on-the-go.
In addition to that, the one-tap interface allows users to send their location or directions and estimated time of arrival (ETA) to contacts. Synch your calendar with Waze and you’ll receive traffic reminders – useful, so as to avoid being late when heading towards a specified destination.
The company also claims that the new update “significantly” reduces battery consumption – which is great, seeing that that’s one of the banes of navigation apps. As mentioned, the update is only available for iOS users, for now. So let’s hope that the Android version gets it soon too.

It’s about time….I’ve been using google maps on the road because Waze got a little clunky to use and google maps have the same traffic, accident, police alerts since it’s taking info from Waze.
Waze is developed by Jewish. I dare you to uninstall it RIGHT NOW!
Good product, everyone use. Bad product, no one gives a shit despite bullshit like “100% R&D”, “improve a lot”, “Betul2 Onz”.
Waze is made by a Yahudi company. How come all those fanatics who say must avoid anything yahudi, but see, these people are happily using Yahudi technology??
One of the update in this Waze is the incorporation of car speed km/h. This is very useful especially when driving along expressway whereby sometimes with one glance we can see the current speed that we are traveling as well.
Accuracy is +-1km/h as compare to the speedometer in the car.
The speedometer display was available a long time ago. Also most car speedos are accurate to about +-5km/h. It depends on the tyre size
Just an improvement over user interface.
Used it yesterday and I have to say it’s a much welcomed update.
I thought ifag is proud of their useless crappy apple maps… Why bother use Waze?
Android fanboy alert.
No one cucuk also but hurt. Fanboi betul
This is why we dont need In Car GPS.
we dont need the gimmick BMW Connect Drive too.
I think, We all just need a Proper phone stand in the car.
Maybe Perodua should start this first, they started the handbag lock.. isnt?
Perodua, provide a Phone Stand at the dashboard.
this would enhance safety for people using phone during driving.
yes ..phone stand with usb charging point beside it…
Better provide seamless mirroring function from smartphones. Hence we can look at the screen as displayed on phone. Or Android based in car entertainment system that we can hook up to AP from smartphone.
In-car gps are pretty useless cos it’s based on offline database, and have to spell it right to the dot, and limited entries. Who goes offline nowadays.
So are they now got searching by GPS coordinate?
