Waze

Was playing around with this today after a friend showed it to me - seems quite good, some nice features compared to other nag software (although generally I just prefer a map and sense of direction!)

Anybody else use it?

There was a post on here back in Nov about it saying there was a z4 group but I cant find it...?

I've been using it for about a year now and in addition to the police. cameras , traffic issues the navigation program is also quite good...

I've used it on and off - seems pretty good but tend to rely mainly on the Bmw nav when in the car.

Google acquired Waze not long ago and are busy integrating some of its functionality into google maps - should create a very powerful bit of mapping / nav kit once they've finished.... Can't wait until this kind of tech is properly integrated into cars in future.

Yes, Jim has set up a group for the forum on it.

 

[DrNick]

Any idea what it is called Carol? I couldn't find anything under z4.

 

[Carol M]

We had trouble with it before and Waze were meant to have done something with the group feature.
I think Jim called it z4-forum.
I'll msg him and ask.

 

[DrNick]

I found those posts and tried that, but couldnt find anything still...

Have just tried to create on called Z4-forum and it says it already exists. Odd

 

[Carol M]

We had trouble before and I gave up trying to join the group. Can't remember if Jim said it was fixed, obviously not.
I've pm'd him anyway.

 

[Carol M]

Nick, Jim says the group name is z4-forum

 

[DrNick]

not finding it - have you?

 

[Carol M]

Its not working at all on my iPad. I'm going to put it on my phone, then I'll try. Hang on...

 

[Carol M]

It wasn't there. It is now!
I just created it. Z4-forum.

 

[DrNick]

odd i can now find one called Z4 owners (created by somebody 29 days ago) but cant find yours :dizzy:

 

[Carol M]

arrrggghhh!

 

[DrNick]

Maybe we are just too far apart carol

 

[Carol M]

But the groups thing should work. I can't see that z4 owners group you found.

 

[DrNick]

Can u invite people to join your group?

 

[Carol M]

I think only thru Facebook but I'll check. Are you DrNick on there?

 

[DrNick]

My nick name is. Username is nmjenkins

Looks like you have to search for a group then join it yourself.
