Can you still use Waze on Uber?

Post by adriansinger
Hi dear professional drivers,

How are you?

I wanted to ask you if you've experienced any recent changes in Waze's button inside Uber. Can you still open Waze directly from the Uber app? Has anything changed there the last days?

We'd be glad to hear any feedback.

Thank you!
Adrian

Thank you Diknup for your update. Could you tell since when is this happening more or less?

Thank you so much for your feedback Diknup, we'll look into it and see we can do something to fix it (probably not, because we don't have integration with Uber).

BTW, we'll be glad seeing you using Waze again ;)

Hi everyone,

We're aware of the problem and are checking if this is something on our side or Uber's side.

Reminder: there's no integration Waze/Uber.

I'll update you once we know more.

Hi everyone,

The issues of Waze/Uber were fixed and everything should be working as normal now.

Could you please confirm this?

Thanks so much for all your feedback!

In the Uber app I default to Waze navigation only. The last day I drove was on Thursday evening in Los Angeles, and I had no issues Whatsoever. I am using an iPhone 7Plus with latest OS and app updates.

I have this same issue with android, my buddy that uses Iphone doesn't have the issue. I have tired it on S6 and S8 and waze will only work the first time with Lyft/Uber

I;m wondering about this too. I haven't been able to use Waze from either the Uber or Lyft apps. in several months. I've deleted and re-installed it a couple of times, without a positive outcome.

I would say since October of last year. After it kept happening on both platforms, I stopped using Waze and now use Google maps in the apps. It seems to work fine.
