Apple Watch Support

Similar to how Apple Maps works on the Apple Watch, but with Was instead. Please release something, anything, for the Apple Watch.

    Waze needs Apple Watch integration before Apple takes the best parts of Waze and makes it obsolete. It’s only a matter of time. Plus how hard could it be?

    @UrmasK Clearly, you've never seen this work properly on a watch. When it does, it's beautiful.

    The way that Apple Maps works with the watch is great. I don't even have to look at my phone (or my watch). the watch tells me when to turn, through haptic feedback. I know before I'm supposed to turn WHEN to turn, and, of course the phone lets me know what's next.

    A brief glance at the watch is much safer than looking at your phone, fighting the lock screen, etc. Adding this sort of integration with the Apple Watch would be great for waze.

    @UrmasK the app is more towards cycle and Motorcycle riders, its a lot cheaper and safer to bring your hand up to your face to see the directions then to look down at your phone in a phone mount.

    but definitely would love an apple watch app for waze it would make my rides a lot better and getting around. Cause at the moment I'm using maps and I almost always miss my turn because it doesn't let me know until its too late (Because they don't have a Vehicle option). Plus it would be nice to know when there are police and or debris on the road. #MapsIsGarbage #WazeAllTheWay

    You guys want to use car navigation äpp on you smart watch? :) So that instead of looking at the big screen you want to concentrate on that small watch on your wrist?
    Weird.. maybe you could draw me a picture and instructions how this would look like- I'm really interested.

    This is fun how "Please release something on my Apple watch" gets over 2000 votes :D Amazing.

    Am very disapppointed as a new iwatch3 owner to learn that I can’t have the Waze app. I should have checked before buying.

    Now would be the best time to support Apple Watch with the series 3 supporting stand alone cellular. Turn by turn notifications with custom vibrations and ‘Dings’ for upcoming Police traps and jams. The ding could be like radar where it will steadily rise as you approach. Or Waze could tell you. A large icon could pop up on your watch that you simply tap once to confirm the trap or the jam.

    Just ideas but Waze is the way to go! Please bring to the Apple Watch!

    I would exclusively use Waze if it gave me turn by turn notifications on my Apple watch like Apple Maps does. Please add!

    Just got an Apple Watch and was so excited... until I realized Waze doesn’t support it. Please don’t make us use Apple Maps. We love Waze so much. :)

    Please! Apple Watch support would allow me to return to Waze, which I prefer!

  • Siim commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Needed! I don't have an Apple Watch yet :) but I feel that there must be an Apple Watch Waze app!
