Get Time to leave notifications
Time to leave notifications tell you when it’s the best time to leave based on real-time traffic and expected drive time.
Make sure your calendar event has a full address entered for its location, including street name, house number, and city.
If you see an option to "Set address" on the Planned drives screen, it means the address was entered incorrectly and no reminder will be sent.
To set an address:
- In your device’s settings, check that your location permission is set to "Allow all the time" (Android) or "Always" (iOS)
- Open Waze
- Tap
- Tap Plan a drive
- Tap Set address
