Another thing Waze does really well that everything else I've used has failed at is international navigation. I live in Japan and most of my stuff is configured to use English because that's my preferred language (I can listen more or less OK, but still can't read kanji very well) and Apple and Google Maps fails hard trying to pronounce road names and such. Apple maps will sound like an American doubling down on American-style pronunciation of names which sounds awful (sounds are wrong, tone is wrong, everything is just bad) while Google Maps will fail to even recognize that the roads are Japanese and speak them in some form of Chinese instead. It may as well be gibberish. Waze, on the other hand, recognizes this and will switch navigation to Japanese while everything else remains English. It's so much better.
