I recently created an account on Waze and it was quite a challenge. Kept giving me errors, and giving me impossible instructions. It was one of the jankiest/most broken experience I've had in an Android app.

Then in my last trip I tried using it to find gas stations on my drive and it was a huge pain in the ass. It was once again impressive in how bad it was.

Waze has some nice features, but it's janky af. Google Maps is considerably better in almost every way. Waze is useful to see speed traps and has more information about gas prices. (Much less helpful in getting you TO those gas stations, though.)
