    It sounds like you have a Kyocera U820 phone with GPS capabilities and are interested in using the Waze navigation app. Unfortunately the U820 is a very old feature phone model that likely does not support installing additional apps like Waze. Waze requires a smartphone running Android or iOS. https://www.typecalendar.com/process-map.html

    Since the U820 is not a smartphone, you will not be able to install and run Waze on it directly. However, there may be some workaround options to consider:

    Use the U820 for its GPS/navigation capabilities, but run Waze on a separate smartphone that you can view while driving. You can follow the audio prompts from the U820 GPS while looking at the visual guidance on the Waze app.
    See if you can install a simplified GPS app on the U820 that connects to Waze on your smartphone to share location data. Some basic GPS apps may be available for the U820's Java platform.
    Consider upgrading to a basic smartphone that can run Waze if possible. Many inexpensive Android phones would allow you to run Waze even with limited data.
    Use the U820 GPS for navigation but have a passenger handle looking at Waze on their smartphone for live traffic updates and routing.
    Hope this gives you some ideas on how to possibly integrate Waze with your U820 even though Waze can't directly install on it. Let me know if you have any other questions!
