Waze traffic app review

Price: Free | Available for: iOS, Android, Windows Phone

We’d previously tested it as a sat-nav app and online route finder, but recent updates make it worth testing as a standalone traffic app. The community-based system relies on other drivers submitting reports when they hit jams, but it works well. Go on to 2D map view to see which roads are blocked and use the route planner for a stress-free journey.
