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!

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.

This has never been a problem before, but WAZE now refuses to play through my phone's speaker, even though this option is set properly. If there is any Bluetooth connection through an earbud, headset, or your car, it will only play the directions through that device now unless you disable that Bluetooth. At first i thought it was my phone, but clearly, something happened with an update because I've talked to several people who regularly use WAZE and it's doing it to them, too. Please fix!
