I have searched and not a lot of people have posted about an integration with Tasker and the Waze app.

Do any of you use this?

I use Waze on the secondary screen of my Digital Dash project, but short of starting and stopping it with Tasker, I haven't done much with it.  I wanted to use a Bluetooth button to report road hazards, but AutoInput can't see the on-screen reporting button, and Waze apparently never responded to flic's request for integration.

Don't have the newest version, however, so hopefully something will have changed.

What about using AutoNotification?  I am almost positive you could get updates from using that.  I just don't know how.  Intent interceptions are not my strong suit.

It would be great if we were able to completely interact with Waze by voice.  I would like the car/phone to say by voice of upcoming traffic or if someone i know is nearby etc.  Or if I could SEND my data to the app by voice. I guess doing the actions by voice would be easy with autovoice and autoinput but the hard part would be getting t he car/phone to say realtime updates like traffic, accidents, or maybe suggest going an alternate route.

Yes, AutoNotification is great for things like that.  I normally use Google Maps for navigation and am currently scraping its notification to put ETA info on my system's main screen.
