Points display (New scoreboard design)

Post by Stubbins1
How can I change back to the old way of viewing points, so I can see how many I need for the next level. And also the scoreboard with my friends in? All I see now is long list of unknown people from all over the world irrelevant to my situation. I used to use that page all the time. As it is now it means absolutely nothing to me.

Please read page 1 of this thread as well as the updates on page 2.

N.B. since you wrote "why you have..." I feel that I should mention that none of us are responsible as this is a community forum and staff does not (or very lightly) monitor it. So you will not be getting direct answers from them.

1+1=3 - The result of bringing talents together goes beyond simply adding them up.

The info we have from staff is that "This is a part of several modifications which we will be rolling out, relating to Waze’s integrations with Social networks."

So the current change you mention is only one part of other planned modifications that will be rolled out later on. What you are seeing now is not a final version and it should not remain this way. Unfortunately staff didn't share more information as to what will change and when.

To answer your direct question: it is not possible to get back to the "old way" of viewing points.
We're just going to have to hope that the next modifications that will be rolling out bring back some of the currently missing information.

Had I known the points system was going to change I would never have upgraded to this version. I run waze all the time when I'm driving mainly to accumulate points and have a friendly competition with my family and friends. The whole point of that has now gone, there's no incentive for me to bother taking my phone out of my pocket when I go out. If I need to find a destination with the aid of a satnav then Google Maps is now just as good and serves the same purpose. Were it possible to revert to the previous version I would. The waze experience for me is sadly coming to an end. It's a shame as I really enjoyed using it, I don't any more.

Thank you. I hope it does change as the way it is now is totally irrelevant to the way I use it. I like to compare my weekly total to my friends local to me, not completely random strangers from all over the world. To be honest it's taken the enjoyment and enthusiasm out of using it.

Can someone let me know, OK its a small silly thing, but I used to be able to see the waze goals and challenges, like 1000 point when you pass the first 500 miles in one week and how many mor emiles to the next level.

have these gone ? or am I missing them on the app.

other than that all is fine

The redesigned scoreboard is nice and a visual improvement; however, two of the things I used this for the most are missing:
  • *Viewing Progress towards Waze Royality, i.e. approximately how many points to move to the next level and
    *Comparing the my weekly progress against my friends in social media.
I can understand the second being missing if it was removed due to privacy concerns, but he first is something that I would really like to see reinstated (maybe if you pick your status it then shows you your progress...)

Thanks,
shawndway
