On Line Map

Postby halpert2 » Fri Feb 24, 2012 9:46 pm

I have not been able to figure out if I can watch my daughter on her way home from school. If I am using my computer is there some way to "tag" a particular wazer that I want to follow along a route? :geek:

Not currently. The wazers visible on map are a small subset of the available ones. Their has been feature requests for at least guaranteed friend visibility, and maybe the possibility of real time updates. But all these are just requests, and are queued behind the infrastructure changes waze is doing to get the base functionality up to speed.

You can, sort of. LiveMap is usually very much delayed in terms of the Wazers it displays. Specifically to discourage the type of activity you are talking about. I've seen my wife on the livemap 15-20 minutes after she turned Waze off. You cannot tag other wazers due to privacy concerns.

EDIT: Deleted the rest because Chris beat me to it again. :geek:

Likely there are other applications for this specific function.

Yes, Google Footprints works really well at this, if you have an Android.

I was lucky today to see myself with a delay in client :) I saw the usual car icon and the wazer icon a bit aside, and I was surprised that it was me, when I have pressed it :) It is something like seeing yourself from above in these clinical death stories :roll: :mrgreen:

I had the same kind of "near death experience" yesterday - and was able to take a snapshot.

Note the black pin, where I touched a street - without getting a popup.

And is that a facebook-badge showing, lightblue below the green bubble? I *must* be dead, because I would never join facebook while alive!

Oh - and the points are waaaaaay off...

Ah well, those were 4 bugs at once. Sure all related to today's leapday.
