Hello @Karlsosha,

Thank you for your feedback and the clear steps showcased in the video.
You are right, the WME search bar fails to locate the correct address when you hit “Enter” immediately, but if you wait a couple of seconds, it will navigate to the right location.
I have opened an internal ticket to look into the current behavior and asked for some insight regarding the current heuristic.
I will let you know once we have any updates.

All the best,
Olesya

I often have to wait more than a “few seconds” - Even after selecting one of the search results WME doesnt acknowledge my selection and i have to retype the address.

Hello @kodi75,

Thank you for your feedback, I’ll update the internal ticket to include your comment. Would you be able to do a screen recording next time you see this issue?

Kind regards,
Olesya

Even when the list appears there are times (pretty consistent) that when of the suggestions is clicked it does not go to that suggestion.

Added my vote to this. I didn’t realize it has been around this long. 5 months without resolution?

@Olesya-Staff This feature is now even more broken:

Sometimes it will drop me into Hong Kong searching for Davis Street in Scranton

Hi @Karlsosha,

Thank you for flagging this issue. I can also see the Hong Kong location listed in the drop-down - I’ve raised it in a separate internal ticket so it can be addressed by the relevant team.

Best,
Olesya
