It's a top app. I gave Google Maps a shot last week and all I have to show for it was bugs and a speeding notice! I'm now back on Waze.

I've gone to Navfree, Waze is better but the data use even compressed is battering my allowance when everything else is added in. Having to trade off against good traffic info, I might just turn off all Facebook notifications instead

Facebook rumoured to be buying Waze for $1bn. Not sure if good or bad... http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/09/facebook-waze-p...

Acquired by Google. Shame.

I used it in San Francisco last week while I was with them in Palo Alto. It's amazingly accurate (traffic and flow speed) out there where so many more people are using it.

I haven't been using it anymore as I've got Nav in the car now, but I can't see the fact it's been acquired by Google a bad thing. The two forces combined should result in supremely accurate mapping and traffic data

I've created a group called PH'ers. If you search for Pistonheads you'll find it quickly and I'd invite you to join so we can help each other out.

This has already been discussed earlier - it's only a very local grouping.
