This may be a dumb question, but here goes.

I have a simple app that plots points in a Xamarin.Forms.Map. My MainPage.xaml looks like this and it works as expected:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ContentPage xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
                 xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
                 xmlns:maps="clr-namespace:Xamarin.Forms.Maps;assembly=Xamarin.Forms.Maps"
                 xmlns:local="clr-namespace:GasStations"
                 x:Class="GasStations.MainPage">
</ContentPage>

Instead of using this map, I would like to display the map from the Waze app.

Is it as easy as switching the control or is it more complex?

    If you are a part of their Broadcasters' program you can embed Waze via HTML IFrames on a browser-based "website" (but not within your own mobile device), they also also certain data feeds and they have an SDK for transportation companies, again these are program-based. What is available is deep-linking so your app can open the Waze app and do things like Search, Nagivate, Show, etc... but again that is within their app, not yours... https://developers.google.com/waze/deeplinks/ – SushiHangover Mar 14 '19 at 01:30
  • So the Waze map control is not like Xamarin.Forms.Map, that can be used in mobile apps? Is it proprietary of Microsoft? – fdkgfosfskjdlsjdlkfsf Mar 14 '19 at 12:35
  • It is not a control, it is an app. And not Microsoft, Google owns Waze. – SushiHangover Mar 14 '19 at 13:02
