Damn, I didn't notice it! Just… wow
Just to add a little extra touch, couldn't the system actually gather the weather info from some website and change the sky accordingly? After all, you already know exactly where we are, so it shouldn't be too hard.

And I'd also like to have different color themes for the Night mode… dark-gray is fine, but sometimes a little more contrast would be better.

This 1.5 is looking very good :)

Dashboard World: 57k points, rank 665
Dashboard WWW: 49k points, rank 655

The music volume no longer turns down when there's a voice prompt.
It's actually been like this for a few versions, but I always forgot to say it :oops:

Sometimes if I change road the system "forgets" my actual destination and rolls back to basic free driving (not even the spinning "thinking" thing). It doesn't happen all the time, and setting again the destination fixes it.

When I get notifications, sometimes there's the arrow to show me the point… but other times it just moves the map without actually showing me where's the road it's talking about.

Wait, really? Mine has never lowered the music for a voice prompt, not since the very first version.
I'm pretty sure mine did… but we're probably talking about version 1.2 or something like that. It's been a while… I told you I kept forgetting about it :lol:

I understand, but in all honesty why would you want a device that is locked to the bone where you can't do what you want with it? Also Waze on the app store is really far behind and this beta is a major improvement... I would be stupid if I went back to the appstore version lol... Plus the more people using the beta the faster they fix bugs and get enhanced features ;) am I right? We want all the bugs worked out and we want more features!!! :)

I wouldn't worry to much about the points currently, they are kind of broken. Mine stopped increasing a couple of weeks ago, and I didn't even install a new version.

I notice that when i want to make a report or when i want to write a new address keyboard input is really slow and slugginesh.... It's cause of memory improve ??? I think it's better before (1.4.0.1) for this things

One great improvement for me is the new font ( better reading) and finally problem solved for recording road... i notice that till now all my journey are in dashboard the days after... Really well done....

When you solve the rank ??? I'm very disappointed for that

I'm using waze 1.5.9.2 and now 1.5.9.4 and i'm experience lack of points in dashboard

Look at the picture just to help community and developers.

I really don't know if the problem is for all people or only who use this beta.

One thing is that for the first time points show on the phone are less that on my dashboard...

But i notice better speed in this new beta, and i really love it

As you said, it's unpredictable. I've seen it take a couple days, and I've seen it take a couple weeks.

Yes, I really dig the bold font, it's much more legible. ETA in landscape mode could be moved a little to the left, though:
