I love Waze, but it quits running while in the background. It used to not do that, and it's so aggravating. I usually only use it when we travel, which means my husband is driving and I'm the passenger. So I'll read on my kindle app but can't do that with Waze, because if you switch apps, Waze closes down. It's ridiculous. Going back to Google maps until Waze fixes this. Also, I've checked my settings to ensure it runs in the background. Still doesn't work.

Love everything about this app with one huge exception, I can't plan trips from anywhere but my current location. The instructions to change my starting point doesn't work either. Upon reading reviews, I'm finding many others have the same complaints. Why doesn't this app offer a starting point like MapQuest, instead of starting at your current location? It seems unreasonable. I guess I need to go back to MapQuest.

App was working for few days and sudden started shutting. It to the point the app doesn't open anymore. I have uninstall and reinstall many of time. It still not working. Updated 7/29/22. This app crossed my entire system. I spent hours to get my system close to the original setup. After achieving that, I thought it was my system. This app will not work with my system. After installing, it froze. I made attempts to uninstall but it will not go away. Again I for hours restoring my system.
