View Waze Incidents on the Tesla browser

[thegruf]

@ericwol - Hi.
Hows the development going, are you able to share any updates on progress?

@ericwol has been very silently working on a new version https://teslawaze-beta.azurewebsites.net/
I am running this ALWAYS and it is perfect! No more google maps and no crashes.

Thank you Eric, hat tip for you!

I am confused. The site you referenced brings up nothing but a blank page for me.
OTOH, Tesla Traffic Incidents and Information seems to be working quite well.

I typed the exact URL shown above manually into my Tesla browser, it works fine, also works on my iPad.

I think it polls the gps, a.o. to switch off updates if the car isn’t moving for 10 mins. It seems the browser stays active even when in sleep mode. Try it on a mobile phone, that should work.
This site is aimed to be run on the console and optimized for that.

Made reddit..

@ericwol noticed something minor last night when teslawaze is in dark mode on the top part of the display you get a fine white line along the bottom edge of the window, this is not visible when it’s on the lower part of the display.

Known issue. The Tesla browser ignores the "user-scalable=no" header meta-tag (tesla browser bug?), so the body can only fill 99.9% of the browser window height. I can fix this by painting the body background black in dark mode, just did not have the time yet it fix it. Yes...it bugs me too

Well, we have been living with mapbox maps for a month now, and I was not really happy with their traffic layer. I just pushed out an update that now pulls traffic data from the waze feed. Traffic is now fully render on the server side, so there should be some improvements in the car browser. Over future release, I'm going to move more rendering on the server, hopefully free up some CPU cycles on the car browser.

You need to make sure your browser has been given access to location. It usually asks, but in some browsers on windows, such as chrome or edge, it will be blank until you grant access. In chrome, next to the star in the URL bar there will be a little location icon with a red x in it. Hit that and click the link that says to fix it. Then reload the page.

Forgot to add, that we are now at 2 million reported police locations in western Europe. The new police trap areas has also been updated.

I'm a heavy user and lover of this app, I have it on all the time ! Only issue I have is that I have to reboot my Center Console about every day, because the web browser has become unresponsive and the page doesn't load anymore. Are you all experiencing the same thing ? Looks like a memory leak in the MCU's browser ?

Funny because i thought it was just my car but i have the same issue. Once i reboot it works flawlessly until the next day again.

Same problem here, also dailly user. Thing is the a button reboot often does not restart the browser. I switch language of notifications and that causes an all systems reboot that reactivates the browse - for some time...

I am still on 2018.18 I made the choice to not upgrade the firmware because of feedback on the AutoPilot increased nagging. Now there is another reason for me not to upgrade. I have no issues with this app. No re-booting needed.

Same here, though I don’t like to reboot, so I compromise by using it only when needed.
Sometimes when it is frozen, I can still browse to another site (one not using gps location) and then browsing back to the Waze site works. But not always.

I’m on 2018.28 in my 2013 and I have the same issue with the site not loading.

Do you guys still have the “beta” in your web address for it? If you do, remove that and it should work
