The only thing the app successfully did was download the traffic information.

I've been using this app for a year and half now with no problems like this at all. Not even the 2.5+ hrs driving, app crash.

I am running iOS 10.2 on an iPhone 5s. Not sure what happened in this update but please correct!
Same here.

Running iOS 9.3.5 on iPhone SE.


In the past year or so, it seems that every 3-4 Waze updates results in the app being crashed immediately upon launching it,
And having to wait for a working update.

I love Waze, and been using it for years,
But I've gotta say- the lack of back testing, prior to releasing a new version, getting really frustrating.

It may not be by choice. I have seen some SE's unable to upgrade to the latest iOS build.

With recent version (1.52.0.2) navigation started from Widgets (home nor work) doesn't start navigating to the destination
Waze is starting as from regular icon.

iP X, iOS 12.4

That is quite an old iOS that you're running. Are you able to update to iOS 12? There have been numerous improvements in iOS 10.3.5 as well as iOS 11 and into iOS 12.

I'd first recommend to delete Waze, then turn your phone off, then back on, and reinstall and see if the issue persists (if you haven't already tried this method).

I am having issues like many others when switching from Wi-Fi to cellular data. The app loses connection and crashes.

Any reason you haven't updated to a more recent iOS?

That's very strange. According to Apple it can utilize up to iOS 12
