Re: Google Maps sucks ass! - mrbigstuff - 03-02-2025 This is how I feel about Waze.

And I often find that whatever they thought was causing a delay had actually been cleared up hours ago and there's no delay at all. I totally get it, unfortunately, most people use navigation apps on routes that are unfamiliar to them. Once one gets past a 50 mile or so radius from their home, routes get hazy. In my experience Waze has so many active users in my region it's pretty spot on with real time delays and traffic. If one is going on a 150 mile road trip to the boonies (skiing). Good luck if you stray off the recommended route and it has to recalculate in a spotty cell zone in the mountains and valleys!

Or the option is only available in some versions of the app or on Google Chrome only. The other thing they do is have an easy to find option, and then bury it deep in some unobvious menu tree.
