LocalClarity connects with Waze through your Google Business Profile, leveraging Google's ownership of the navigation platform to ensure that all updates made in LocalClarity are reflected in Waze.

Understanding the Waze Connection

There is no direct integration workflow with Waze, but all updates in LocalClarity pushed to Google Business Profile (GBP) will be reflected in Waze automatically.

The location details found in Waze, including reviews, photos, phone number, and address, are pulled directly from Google Maps. This is because Waze was purchased by Google in 2013 and relies on Google's data in addition to community feedback to provide accurate details while traveling to your destination of choice.

Since Waze directly pulls details from Google Maps, any changes you make to your listings will be reflected in Waze within minutes of updating. The screenshots below show the same Starbucks location found in Google Maps and in Waze.

As you can see in the examples, the same photos and average review score found in Google are reflected in Waze. The "Powered by Google" text under the average star rating helps validate this connection.

How to Push a Single Location Edit from LocalClarity

We make pushing single location edits as straightforward as possible. In the Manage Locations section, select your listing you want to update. Click on the Edit Icon (Pencil). This will open up all of the location details you can update to your Google listing.

Once you have made your changes like the hours of operation of your location, press the Apply button at the bottom of the screen.

Within minutes of pushing the update, you will see these changes reflected not only in your Google Knowledge Panel, but also in Waze.
