You should be good with power from the cigarette plug.
The trick is to turn Waze off after you are done using it or it will drain your phone when unplugged from power.
Sometimes Waze doesn't play well with other apps that are using the audio system (such as I-tunes) or sometimes it freezes up. In any case the best cure for me is to reboot my I-phone.

I have a USB socket that plugs into the lighter. It's $2-5. I have a few of them, some have one USB ports, some have 2. I usually plug in my phone to charge whenever I get in the car because I use it to play music, navigation, and comms via bluetooth. I have a clip on phone holder that accommodates a variety of widths, and I locked one of my centerstack eye vents with a screw from behind. Honestly, I use Google Maps 99.9% of the time. It has evolved better into monitoring traffic and suggesting bypasses around them. Waze can be a bit power and data hungry.

The only places I have experienced no GPS service is deep valleys in Western NC and in the SW/West Coast . If you are on a state or interstate highway, you will have GPS. The coverage compared to where it was 10 years ago is night and day.
