Waze is one of the most popular Google navigation apps alongside Google Maps. However, Waze is sought after for its social and collaborative aspect, as well as the ability to signal fixed radar points in Portugal.
Although this is one of the most popular navigation applications, the truth is that in recent days users have reported difficulties in accessing some functions such as warnings about the presence of radars on the roads. However, this flaw does not happen to all users in Portugal.
Waze “trembles” and stops showing speed cameras in Portugal
The “bug” or bug was caused by the introduction of dark mode, or dark mode, affecting the compatibility and proper functioning of the Waze application with, for example, Apple CarPlay. The information was first advanced by the publication. Self-evolution.
According to the report, some users were unable to activate dark mode through the CarPlay platform regardless of the settings chosen. The situation was initially interpreted as a bug introduced by one of the latest iOS operating system updates for Apple iPhones.
However, with the backlog of bug reports, the crash is now attributed to the Waze app. Additionally, bugs are becoming more and more widespread, with reports populating the official Google forums. On purpose, view a recent post reporting the same problem, as well as the accumulation of responses from various Waze users.
Compatibility issue between Waze and the latest version of iOS
First of all, users noticed that, when passing a place where the presence of a fixed speed camera was usually indicated, it was not displayed. In other words, there was no warning sign or indication.
In summary, this lack can result in different fines for some users, especially for those who have the habit (or occasional carelessness) of abusing the speed and the respective limits in force.
However, some users have tried to find a solution by marking a STOP (dummy) operation in these places. Still, even for testing purposes the radar continued unmarked, just the STOP operation ad hoc for testing purposes.
Finally, at this time the definitive cause of the error to be indicated by users of Apple smartphones (iOS) and the Waze application is unknown. However, Google is aware of the problem, so we can wait for a solution to be available.
Until then, it is best to be very careful not to exceed the speed limits in Portugal.
