What do the symbols on Waze mean?

Have you started using the Waze app to navigate your city, having ditched Google Maps or Apple Maps for good? Waze is great, but all those symbols and icons can be confusing. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered, check out the Explanation of Waze app icons. Here you’ll find a complete guide on what all the icons and symbols in the Waze app mean.

The symbols on Waze are pretty easy to pick up once you start using the app. I noticed the car icon shows your current position, which is handy for knowing where you are on the road. The red triangle pops up for traffic jams, and there are little icons for things like police, accidents, and hazards, which I find super useful when I’m driving.
