Waze on Your Motorcycle: How to get GPS on a large screen (without risking your phone)

If you're like 90% of motorcyclists, the first thing you do before setting off is open Waze. We want to know where the traffic is, where the potholes are, and, of course, where the speed cameras are.

But using Waze on a motorcycle has, until now, been a headache. You have two (bad) options:

1. Your phone on the handlebars: You risk destroying the camera with vibration, overheating your phone in the sun until it shuts down, or worse, having it stolen at a traffic light.

2. A dedicated GPS (Garmin/TomTom): It's robust, but it doesn't have native Waze. You have to pay €500 for maps that don't have the real-time traffic information that Waze has.

The question everyone asks is: "Isn't there a way to have Waze on a screen on my motorcycle, but with my phone safely in my pocket?"

The answer is Yes. And it's called "Mirroring."

The End of the "Phone Holder"

Automotive technology has finally reached two wheels. Just like in modern cars you have a screen on the dashboard that connects to your phone and shows apps, now you can have the same on your motorcycle.

By installing a smart monitor (like Motoplay), you create an extension of your smartphone.

• Processing: This is done by your phone (which stays safe, cool, and without vibrations in your pocket or tank bag).

• Display: This is done on the Motoplay screen, which is waterproof, dustproof, and built to take a beating.

 

3 Advantages of Having Waze on a Dedicated Screen

1. Giant Alerts (Goodbye Squinting) Trying to see a "Police 300m Ahead" alert on a 6-inch phone screen, full of reflections and shaking, is dangerous. On a dedicated, high-brightness screen, the Waze interface (via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto) is simplified. Icons are larger, alerts fill the screen, and reading is immediate. Less time looking down = more safety.

2. The End of "Ghost Touch" in the Rain Have you ever tried to use your phone in the rain? Water droplets confuse the touchscreen and the map starts jumping around on its own. Dedicated motorcycle screens are designed to ignore water and work even with wet gloves. You can report a hazard on Waze without taking off your gloves.

3. Infinite Battery Waze is a battery "vampire." If you use your phone in a holder, you have to carry dangling cables to charge it (which overheats the device even more). With a dedicated screen system, your phone can stay in your pocket with the screen off (locked), saving a lot of energy.

Motoplay: Your Waze, But Better

You don't need to buy a new €25,000 motorcycle to have a TFT panel with navigation. Motoplay is the upgrade that brings Waze into your field of vision, regardless of the motorcycle you ride.

• Wireless Connection: You get on your motorcycle, turn the key, and Waze automatically appears on the screen. Without taking your phone out of your pocket.

• Compatibility: Works with iPhone (CarPlay) and Android (Android Auto).

• Price: It costs a fraction of a new phone (and much less than repairing a damaged camera).

Stop looking at shaking holders. Look at the road.
