I have not been able to see the battery info. It won't even let me identify my specific vehicle. My understanding is that it does not do the preconditioning. Apparently the plumbing is a bit different from Google maps and can't communicate to initiate it. Hopefully that changes at some point.
I am android as well. I typically use Google maps specifically because of that. But if waze has it now, I may never switch. I will see if I have an update that enables it for me now. Thanks. Really good to know.
