Hi,
​​​Is it possible to add a friend on Waze and be able to view where they are?

Thanks

Waze does have a route-sharing option on the app, but this needs to be initiated by the user. You can't see someone else without them doing this first, and it will need to be done for each journey.

Please see https://support.google.com/waze/answer/6273627?hl=en

Another option, if you have Android (not sure about iPhone), is to use the Google Maps location sharing feature, where you can grant other accounts access to see your location.
