Best sat nav app has to be waze

[Slow]

Just drove back from Bury st Edmonds to Inverness. Waze gave me a estimated arrival time upon start of the route. Arrived within 3 minutes of that time 500+ miles later.

Really impressed with how it accounts for traffic including the future traffic based on what normally happens. On my way down it was out slightly as it had to detour me due to a accident but can't really blame it, made a change about 30 minutes in advance and told me due to a accident.

Best I've used!

Cool story bro etc.

You all keep saying it takes you on random small roads, you can tell it to stick to main roads/fastest route/shorted distance etc.

When you enter a average speed camera zone now there's a little bar which tells you how long they are for, how far through you are and it has a accurate speedo so you can run right on the limit and not what your cars speedo is saying.

It will still be using your GPS though even when it's closed.

But this is how it figures out the traffic surely?

Why should it use my device all the time? All of the others only need it when you're using the app, Waze wants access to it all the time though.

Because if you know where your going you wont have the app open. They still want the traffic data from you though to know how the traffic is flowing.

Atleast thats how I see it working.

What does it matter anyway unless your planning a murder streak.

Oh, and Waze only gives a voice alert for variable speed cameras if you're over 70mph. Not good if they're set to 50mph

I dont think so anymore. Atleast for the roadworks on the A9 where it is 40mph it let me know. Unless you mean the "smart" motorways where the speed changes constantly but we dont have any motorways in Inverness to experience that.
