Used to be really good when they had a detour button, now average. That detour button needs to come back, and they need to add a way to add a stop on a route. Also, it tends to be off by a few miles at first before I start the route. I bounce between this and Google maps, but if they brought those features in? I'd use it more frequently.

Edit, Waze is running again. Hopefully, it doesn't crash... After using Waze for years, the app has now crashed. I typed in and spoke the address I wanted to go to multiple times. Most of the time, Waze didn't respond, or if it did, it couldn't give directions. I un-installed and then reinstalled the app, and I can't log back into my account. I tried searching for the address I wanted to do and received a message that there wasn't a network signal. This app is now useless.

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!
