Summary
Just in time for the Summer driving season, driving app Waze is today embarking on bold new territory: crowdsourcing the best gas prices. With the latest version of the free Waze app, launching today, you’ll be able to find gas stations and compare their prices in real time.
Description
Waze’s apps, which are available on the iPhone, Android, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, and Symbian phones, offer free turn-by-turn directions. But Waze’s true value is its vast amount of live traffic data. Crowdsourced entirely from its users, the data makes Waze a far more useful alternative to standalone GPS units.Gas information is Waze’s first vertical attempt outside of its core crowdsourced navigation feature.
