Waze uses your phone's GPS. You are not going to lose sight to the sky on any major highway. It even works in tunnels by knowing the average vehicle speed in the tunnels and plots your exit, pretty accurately by the way. It corrects any error when you exit.

It does not require 100% continuous cell service.
