Interesting Issue with Waze Arrival Notifications
-
I use Waze all the time; every day, really. I've seen what you describe, though my experience is a little different. It seems that it sends the arrival notifications based on anticipated arrival, so +/- 5 minutes of your actual arrival. It's worse on long trips since it will drop the network concoction. and then no notification will be sent despite how it is still running and everything looks OK.
I recommend that you post on their forums and/or research what they have to say there about this. It's probably way more informative than posting here.

I use Waze all the time, even if I am only going to IKEA 5 miles away, because traffic can be drastically different depending on which arterial street you use.
I do not use Arrival alerts though, so no help there.

I love living in a city where that stuff isn't generally needed.

I'm also a Waze user.
it! But we don't use the arrival notifications or anything yet either. -
What is this traffic thing you speak of?

I thought about saying the same thing. But the fact I do not drive to work... well I didn't want to rub it in too much

I guess traffic for me is a tractor going too slow down a two lane road.

Sounds about right.

I don't drive to work either, but I also do not want to sit in the longer traffic path when I go to lunch with my wife or something.

I think it refers to these.
