Can have only 3 favorite places.

Postby szalejot » Sat Jul 28, 2012 8:04 pm

Hi, I have Waze on Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (Android 2.3)
I can have only 3 favorite places. When I add more than 3 and restart application the oldest are gone.
Is this normal application limitation or am I experiencing some kind of bug?

Thats weird.
I mean: in today phones, which have a lot of memory in memory cards, whats the problem of remembering a hundred of places? So why so low limits?

There is no limit we've found for number of favorites. What method are you using to add a favorite?

Isn't there a problem with favorites on unnamed streets?

I do believe that problem may still exist. Hence my question on "how" they were being added.

It's getting more frustrating, because now I have only 2...
I navigate through map view, select some place on street (by holding on it longer) and add to favorites.
It's only way for me to add proper places, because in Warsaw lot of streets don't have proper building numbers or don't have numbers at all.

If the streets you are tap-holding on have no name, then this is a known issue. You are encouraged to go to the map editor and update the map. Waze also supposedly knows this is an issue as it's been reported several times. You are also encouraged to add your feedback to the appropriate official feedback thread in the Client forum.

So if I understood correctly, favorites on unnamed streets just disappear sometimes? I have added a favorite two times already, and it has disappeared two times.

That is correct, yes. Your best bet in such a case is to edit that street in WME, wait for the next client-map update, and then set your favorite once the road is named. I've had to do this several times in the past few months.
