Ratings and reviews

Omgggg literally an accident blocking all lanes for up to that point, an hour (cars are turning around) and Waze insists on rerouting every route to the accident. I'm putting up closures and it just finds more convoluted routes back to the accident. I know there's another way and want to see the time difference (and Waze knows I go that way too) but Waze refuses to acknowledge it. Restart, clear cache, nothing. It's so bizarre and frustrating!

Since the latest update installed on 8/25, my phone (Samsung S24+) has been draining the battery much more than before while using Waze. I keep getting the warning message: "Waze is using system resources excessively and slowing down your phone. Put it in deep sleep to keep your phone running smoothly." I've never had any issues with Waze doing this previously, but something happened on this last update that is causing this. Even with my phone plugged in and charging, the battery goes down.

"Stay on top" doesn't work on any of our Galaxy phones. Also, every day, it tries to send me thru a path that takes longer to my destination (it verifies it because when I refuse to take that path, the time goes down) AND is more side roads. This has been happening for years on and off, but I'm surprised at how consistently it's been doing this with my new morning commute.
