How to Cancel Waze Plus in 2026

Updated February 2026 • 3 min read

Waze Plus costs $2.49/month to remove ads from the navigation app. That's $30/year to hide banner ads you barely notice while driving. Here's how to cancel — and why free Waze (or Google Maps) is perfectly fine.

How to Cancel Waze Plus

iPhone: Settings → [Your Name] → Subscriptions → Waze → Cancel
Android: Google Play Store → Profile → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Waze → Cancel
You can't cancel from within the Waze app — must go through App Store/Google Play

What Waze Plus Actually Gives You

Ad-free navigation — removes banner ads at the bottom of the map
That's it. Literally just ad removal
No extra features, no better routing, no priority support
The ads are small banners that appear when you're stopped — you shouldn't be looking at your phone while driving anyway

Free Navigation Alternatives

Waze (free) — Same app, same features, tiny ads you ignore
Google Maps (free) — Waze is owned by Google anyway. Maps has speed traps, real-time traffic, and no ads
Apple Maps (free) — Massively improved since launch. Clean UI, CarPlay integration
HERE WeGo (free) — Offline maps, no ads, no tracking

💡 Fun fact: Google owns Waze (acquired in 2013). Waze's community-reported incidents (speed traps, accidents, police) now feed into Google Maps too. So you get most of Waze's best feature (crowd-sourced alerts) in Google Maps, without any ads.

Bottom line: Paying $30/year to remove tiny ads from a navigation app is the definition of a subscription you don't need. Cancel Waze Plus and use free Waze or Google Maps. The 3 seconds of banner ads while stopped at a red light aren't worth $2.49/month.
