Although in Android we have a wide range of GPS navigation and location apps, Waze has conquered many users instead of Google Maps. Also, in addition to saving some tricks that allow us to squeeze it, it is compatible with Coolwalk in Android Auto.
In our road trips, we discover new cities and enclaves, which we finally visit on foot. As a general rule, we will choose parking nearby, but sometimes you can get confused because you don’t know the place perfectly. Here our memory comes into play, but none of that will be necessary if we tell Waze where we parked.
How to register your parking lot
It wouldn’t be the first time a waiter didn’t remember where he left the car. And surely, this may have happened to you. Fortunately, among its infinite functions, Waze hides a way to establish the exact place where we parked.
Thus, at the end of the day and starting the return, it will not be necessary to pull on the orientation or the memory to join our vehicle. For this, you should not dig too much, since the function is activated by default.
On the main screen of Waze, when we are viewing the route on the map, press and hold the point that indicates our position (as long as we are next to our car), a small banner will be displayed indicating the street name.
Well, next to the name we will see a three dots icon arranged horizontally. Simply touch it to see a new menu that includes two options, including “Mark your parking spot“. Obviously, by pressing this action, Waze will leave our private parking lot marked on the map.
to delete it Once there, we will touch the dots icon again and select the action “remove from map“In the same way, we can have Waze guide us to the parking lot, passing by Preview location > See routes.
Now you will see on the map a car icon, and we’ll never lose where we left it parked. The next time you travel with this app you won’t have to waste time looking for or remembering the parking location, in seconds you will have marked it to quickly and safely return to your car .
