Full list of features Discussion View history

Revision as of 23:25, 6 October 2010 by Waynemcdougall (talk | contribs) (Page under development - incomplete save while adding setting features)

This table lists all the features available on the lastest iPhone app version (2.0), and the availability for other families of devices. Waze has found the fastest, easiest way to improve the app is to develop and test on the iPhone and then transfer to other devices. The aim is to have the same features on every model phone.

Even though a feature may be available for your device type, there may be a problem with that feature on your specific model which should be listed here.

Warning

This table is accurate for the iPhone, but is in the process of being updated for the other models.

Android Blackberry Symbian (Nokia) Windows Mobile

You can sort the table by version (V.) to see what feature was added in what version. And you can sort by device family type so you can group together all the features not yet available.
