1. what you don’t like about the current options.

2. What you'd like as features for functionality for daily life like commuting to work.

3. What would be “cool” for cruise/meet events

4. Preferred screen layout - customization options.

5. Specifics on what you'd like for voice commands.


Any and all input is greatly appreciated ??

Accurate speed limit indication is important. I use both apps and have found in some areas that the speed limit doesn't update for a minute or two after passing the point at which the limit changed.
Also an option for a pre warning of a change in speed limit.
I like how Waze allows the user to inform other users of police or construction but feel it could be improved.
The Graphics are also important. I like the aesthetics of Google maps but find Waze to be more 'real time' as it is updated but users. I don't like the cartoon-ish feel of Waze though.

All the best. Look forward to seeing how this develops.

I've personally had issues with the delay of posted speed limits. The delay shouldn't be much more than 10 or so seconds if at all.

Graphic-wise I also prefer the layout and theme of Google. Waze has a user-friendly layout but the graphics are cartoonish for my taste.

Will keep you updated on our progress as it's made, thank you for your input ??

My biggest issue with all current nav apps is that I’d really like to know if I’m coming up on dead stop traffic. I know you can see it on the map but an option to make that alert audible would be great. Lots of mountains and hills in my area and people come over them and slam right into stopped cars.
