[SUPPORT] Traffic Avoidance Failure

[gettingthere]

Hi guys,

The problem was isolated and fixed.
We will update our server soon and we hope this will greatly improve the ETA that Waze gives, along with better routing and traffic avoidance.

Nowadays we're working on improving our servers in NA and world wide.

Thanks,

Ori

Please let us know when the fixed code is actually installed and operational. It's great that it is fixed, but useless to Wazers if it's not yet installed... How soon will it be installed? Today, tomorrow, in 3 weeks, 6 months????

Maybe with the Tile Update? So perhaps another few months . . .

It's code in the routing servers. Independent from the map tiles. Many routing servers to update world-wide.

Ah, so those are the servers that perpetually time out >:(

Probably should've figured that one out.

As I understand, the fix is already applied, but they are also implementing some new routing code that will improve ETA predictions and re-routing. Anyway it would be good to know when it will be up and running

As I understand the developers have isolated and fixed the problem but not yet installed it in the routing servers. The comment about improving the ETA and routing is really fixing what should have already been working - not enhancements. The whole reason why this thread started - the traffic and ETA was not working properly in some cases - especially when there was very slow traffic jams.

I hope Ori will explain that soon, so we will know if we could start testing the fix right now or have to wait.

Likely we won't get another response until next week. I am 99% sure the fix is not yet installed on the routing servers. Unfortunately this means wait...

Thank you Ori! I hope this happens soon. Today was the worst traffic I had driven in, in weeks! I had never been routed straight into a jam or an accident. I had been using MotionX for the past few weeks and today decided to switch back to Waze because it reroutes you while you drive, but it led me straight into the red.

Thankfully, it was a bug and will be fixed. Eagerly waiting!

This morning was the other way round! The route preview was populated with things I couldn't see on the map.
Since the route preview showed much traffic and the ETAs have not been reliable I choosed to drive another way so I couldn't confirm the traffic shown on the route preview!!
