Members of our club have tested two driving aid applications for you: Coyote and Waze. Find out which one should accompany you on your daily journeys.
Waze community
100% free application, Waze is by far one of the best GPS applications for Iphone and Android. Based on the principle of community sharing, users benefit from a lot of live information during their journeys.
The operation is very simple: users drive and share what they see… Slowdown, traffic jam, accident, works, broken down vehicle, blocked road, object on the road, police control, everything is updated by the wazers.
After 6 months of use, we have listed the main advantages of the service offered by Waze :
- there is no subscription : everything is free !
- the high accuracy of the alerts which allow to change the route in case of delay,
- the updating of the maps is permanent and free,
- It is possible to integrate routes and plan them in advance,
- operates in many European countries.
Coyote Community
The operation remains the same as at Waze, the community rolls up and shares what they see … Traffic jams, slowdowns, accidents, works, broken down vehicles, blocked roads, objects on the road, police checks, mobile radars and risk areas, everything is updated by Coyote scouts.
After 6 months of use, we have listed the main advantages of the service offered by Coyote :
- the subscription is $ 5 per month for a 12-month commitment,
- Coyote software gives you an indicator of scout reliability,
- even well hidden gendarmes are reported…
- integration of mobile, onboard and red light radars,
- unlike Waze, the box does not need a telephone network to work, thanks to the GPS the help is permanent,
- operates in many European countries.
Finally, there are only advantages to using both applications : Coyote and Waze during your daily trips. 100% legal, they will help you to avoid risk areas and radar checks. We have a preference for Coyote, the subscription justifies the advantage of never losing the network. So why deprive yourself of it: visit the official Waze website and the official Coyote website !
