When you launch application then waze suggests you a route to a direction where you usually travel at this time. In this "suggestion" window there is unreadable text after text "Driving to: " ("Еду к:")
The text is double encoded into utf-8
If you encode word "Аня" to utf-8 two times then you will get next text: "ÐнÑ". The same you see on the image attached.
Linux/OS X proof =)
$ echo "Аня" > enc.txt
$ iconv -f latin1 -t utf-8 enc.txt

Bug is very old. I just have not had time to report. Maybe half year ago I saw it first time.

The developers don't read the forums usually. Have you reported this to support using the link at the top of all the Waze webpages?

This is what I saw there:
The Forum is the place to share your experience with us and with other users, report bugs and generally join in discussions.
But bug is already fixed. Thanks
