title: Waze - open waze.to links in app and start navigation,
body: <p>I would like to open the Waze app from a web browser but the links I have in my db are in this format:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><a href="http://waze.to/li/hsv9hc540y" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://waze.to/li/hsv9hc540y</a></li>
  <li><a href="https://waze.to/li/hsv8v8wv81" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://waze.to/li/hsv8v8wv81</a></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>When I click on these links from my mobile web browser they open the app but the navigation doesn't begin, it's only opens the app and that's it.</p>
  
  <p>After reading the <a href="https://developers.google.com/waze/deeplinks/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">updated waze api</a> I haven't found a way to navigate using the encrypted string <br> <strong><code>hsv9hc540y</code></strong> <br> only by latitude and longitude which I don't have.</p>
  
  <p>How can I convert those waze.to links to the new deep links api using the encrypted string I have so it will open the app and init navigation?</p>
