"Favorites" In Mexico Problem

Post by kpenning39
I cross the U.S./Mexico border at San Ysidro several times a month. When my phone is roaming in Baja only a subset of my Favorites are available. I have an iPhone 6, running iOS 9.3.2, and the latest version of Waze.

How can I correct this problem?

"Favorites" In Mexico Problem

Post by DavidAbarca
It's a know problem that we Mexicans have already addressed to the Waze staff, and there is no solution yet

The problem is that there are two servers (NA and INT) the US and Canada are in the NA and the ROW is in the INT Server, the app it's incapable to switch servers on the fly, so you have to restart the app to switch servers. Also the server "border line" it's located more or less 40 km south of the real life border.

Your favorites aren't showing because they are stored in the server you are currently using, if you save a favorite in the INT server it will only show in the INT server area, if you save a favorite in the NA server it will only show in the NA server area, this also happens with some reports, your drives and your points

The remaining subset is a mixture of U.S. and Mexico destinations.
