    Just a follow-up. I logged out of Waze & was able to log back in with my username, without being asked for access to my contacts. Just needed to verify my phone number & other info previously provided info. So perhaps you should try setting up & using a username/password instead of only a phone number to login. HTH or gives someone more ideas.

    I was just as insulted & annoyed about the contacts requirement, but I allowed access to login, then went to settings & removed access. Hasn't affected me in any way, as I prefer to enter the address anyway. FYI, you can use waze without logging in; you just won't have any favorites or other personal things, & can't edit the map. Small price to pay for privacy, IMHO, since it's an otherwise great app.
