Waze Navigation & Live Traffic 4+

I have been using Waze for several years but I have decided to delete today. I have had enough. It used to be great app, but for the last year or so it has become a nightmareif you need to use it frequently. In about 50% of time, it takes several MINUTES before it catches a signal and starts showing you the proper way. So you would have to wait almost every time when you sit in your car before you can go if you need Waze to show you the way. Also, which is even worse, it started to take me through small side roads instead of highways quite frequently, eventhough I have highways selected in options. And, also, it gets lost very often as well. You go through town and all of sudden Waze starts going backwards (!!!) or losts its way and you are left in the middle of somewhere not knowing where to go... For me, garbage! Bye!

I have been happily using Waze in conjunction with my iPhone and then CarPlay in the car for many years. Mainly that after entering my appointment into the calendar, Waze automatically retrieved the address and then sent me 1. a notification about 1.5h before and 2. a notification 10 minutes before the ideal departure time. For over a year now, I've been dealing with a problem in CarPlay where after starting, Waze starts to lag until the map completely breaks down. I have to switch to some setting in the car menu, and when I return to the Waze map it tends to be fine for the rest of the drive. But the worst started recently. After one of the last updates, I spent some time looking for where the scheduled rides disappeared to. But I found it and it worked like old times. But about a week ago, my calendar items stopped loading or showing up in "Schedule a Ride". I didn't change anything in the settings. On the contrary checked and everything is set correctly as before. I reinstalled Waze, reset my phone (I have an iPhone 13 with the latest version of iOS 16.6). What's extra weird is that even though there is nothing visibly loaded in "Schedule a ride", I get a departure notification sometimes 10 minutes before the ride.
So I can't rely on Waze anymore and use a different navigation.
