Waze: "This app won't work for your device"

I want to install the Waze app to run natively on the android portion of EVPlay. The Play store says "This app won't work for your device". Has anyone tried this and gotten it to work? For reference, I have a Gen1 R1S but do have a USB GPS dongle attached to EVPlay that is working with Google Maps

No answers for you unfortunately, same issue here, but what GPS dongle did you buy? Did you have to install any drivers?

Unfortunately there are some apps that just don't like us. ;(

You could run it though AA/CP?

@technerd I put a few up on our store. They are plug & play.

@sparkles I was able to download Waze from Apkmirror.com and directly install it that way. It runs but I can't verify operation until my GPS dongle arrives (on order).

@tucsonst Great idea! I can confirm that Waze works with a GPS dongle. Weirdly the apk I downloaded wouldn't let me login to Waze via Google, but logged in with email just fine and navigates perfectly. So much smoother than the Android Auto connection
