WAZE group for Tail of Dragon

[BadAndy]

Anybody use WAZE (GPS) out there on their phone? I've setup a group called "VOA Tail of the Dragon" Might be fun or helpful during the event. Never used a WAZE group before. Someone want to try and join it and let me know...thanks!

Can't find it.

I use Waze. The group search isn't finding your group.

[Mad Max]

I went ahead and tried to create a new group with the same name that you used. It let me do so. Not sure. Can someone try to join it?

[01sapphirebob]

After looking at thge app it says you can old join a group if you are within 62 miles of where it was created.

Used it a few weeks ago stuck in 10 mile backup in interstate coming back from T X. App lets you communicate with others in same area?

[BadAndy]

Ah, thanks Bob...so maybe it's not good for doing ahead of time. We'll all have to wait till we're packed in close I guess! We'll see what happens in two weeks...

Hey I don't know if this will help but, I was looking for an app the could help everyone communicate when going to NVE and was playing around with an app called "Zello". It's like a walkie talkie / netxel direct connect that works on iPhone, android, blackberry, and PC platforms. it's free and we can setup private channels with a password. Only thing is if you don't have an unlimited data plan you'll have to keep that in mind. Could be a great way to test it out before NVE. Hope everyone has a fun safe trip.
