It even gives you the average speed of the users on your route just in case my nagrereport ng traffic pero di naman). Problem lng is pag nagcalculate sya ng alternative route at wala cell signal/internet connection dun sa area di na sya gagana plus ang lakas umubos ng battery.

Sir niky is right, the screen of the stand alone unit is better than the cell but the cell app also has a voice prompt which I find more pleasant compared sa stand alone ;)

So IMHO both has advantages and disadvantages and can complement each other but I prefer the reliability nung stand alone
tnx sir, waze social map gps ba full name nyang sinasabi mong app? eto dinownload ko na, itry ko din to
