Shortcuts for Waze 2.0 (Nav)

Ever wanted to just open your phone and navigate to where you want to go, without opening Waze and spending dozens of clicks and 30-60 seconds selecting where you want to go?
Waze does not provide a built-in way to add shortcuts to places. So I wrote this app to provide them. Once you try this you will wonder how you went so long with out this!


* Use them anywhere shortcuts are accepted
* Custom Icons
* Double Shortcuts
- add a via point [beta]
* Address autocomplete
* Can now enter lat/long coordinates directly
* Select current location
* Select addresses from contacts

PLEASE NOTE: If you're not using the shortcut menu (meaning you're actually opening the app), the shortcut will show up wherever your launcher decides it should go (if you have no space on the main screen it'll move it to some other screen). So if you do not see the shortcut created, search your other launcher pages first.

I am not associated with Waze in any way, except as a user of their software.

[Beta] Shortcuts for Waze 2.0 is in beta mode

This app is too buggy. Half the time after waze launch is it can't find the destination. Other times it crashes wazr so badly I can't get it working again for about 2 minutes.

Does exactly what it's meant to do! (It's mind boggling that we need a separate app for something that should be part of the original app, especially that Google Maps does have it)

Horrible app! Never let me create ANY shortcuts! Save your time and frustration and do not download! Everytime I tried to create a shortcut it told me "over query limit." WTH?😠

Love it. Only issue that if I try to create a shortcut through the app itself it duplicates the last shortcut I created.

doesn't work. you can set up a short cut but then it just says, "oops, something went wrong".

Mic. D. Oct 5, 2018     

Works fine except I can't add more than 2 shortcuts. Any more and it says over query limit.

Lacks the ability to create shortcuts either from your favorites or graphically

Very useful, I just wish I was able to back up the shortcuts I created.

Eri. D. May 10, 2019     

Works, but have had to re-add shortcuts when they stop working.

Chr. Jul 16, 2021     

Works perfect, would be nice if there was a way to back up the data.

Says overlay query error, doesn't work at all

Thanks for the app. The best app for Waze

Please provide me with Waze Map

Just what I needed.

The perfect companion for Waze. I have used this for about 3 years and still love it.

DOES NOT work on Oreo, my Moto G6 Forge (Play on Cricket) with Nova Launcher, on my Nougat phone it did work.

Very straightforward and easy to use app. Handy to add common destination shortcuts to the home screen. No ads, just a tactfully implemented icon system. Thanks for making this available.

This is an amazing complementary feature to Waze. I've enjoyed the same one-click navigation shortcuts when I used Google Maps, and now this app offers exactly what Waze is missing, and makes my transition to Waze a lot easier. Honestly, I think Waze should just buy this app from the developer and integrate into the official Waze app.

Updated review. Thanks for fixing. It works great with my samsung s8 plus

Jef. P. Apr 15, 2018     

Super helpful, flawless - much thanks to developer.

Does exactly what they say.

Ken. L. Oct 19, 2016     

works great. icons don't work with smart launcher though. it would be better if they did.

Joh. S. Sep 14, 2016     

It would be better if the app could calculate alternate routes en route and reroute you if current route happens to have too much traffic. Wouldn't mind paying for that feature

Nifty little app, mind-boggling how Waze can't do this natively.

Dav. C. Sep 11, 2016     

Nice app that gets waze all dialed in to where i want to go. I work at several hospitals and often travel between sites. This app and waze gets be there faster! Thanks you for taking the time to create it!

I am always looking for a way to kp my places even if I uninstall waze. this fix that

the old version worked great (why did I update...? ) This one does not work. Also have to restart Waze, when starting with the shortcut, as it kills the whole program.
