OK, I finally got it to work. I plugged in a different iPhone and disabled CarPlay, then I turned my truck off for a while while leaving my main phone plugged in, and when I turned the truck back on with the phone still plugged in it was there!

kill Waze on your iPhone and restart the app. I observed the same issue. You literally have to kill the app, not just send it to the background.

Default Waze is working with sync 3 applink

You would think that Waves or ford would explain to you how to get it working waves did not even tell you that it was ready to run I just got mind to work don’t forget to enable app link on the sync and Waze has to be running than plug into usb

I think this app with applink is in a very early stage of development. I expect it will get a lot better over time.

My just showed up out of the blue after two days of trying. Like everyone says though, it’s very laggy and only mirrors your phone. If you leave the Waze app open on the phone it will work, once you go to messages or anything else it goes away. May as well use your mounted phone instead. Pretty useless if you ask me. Maybe Apple will eventually allow it through CarPlay. I won’t be using this feature.

I think it's nice to have when there are traffic problems. Waze will get you around the issues and let you know exactly what is happening. It's not an app I use daily.

I finally got it working after upgrading from 18025 to 18093. I haven't had a chance to play with it much but it appears to be kinda of slow.
