My driving stats questions.

Post by Driver232462
Here are my current Waze driving stats.

1. What is munched feet?
2. Must the waze app be open on my smartphone while I am driving to log my miles driven?
3. I have zero paved miles. What are paved miles?

Actually, my question relates to the page starting off with "my driving stats" but actually concerns the lines underneath that, captioned "Editing and Community Stats". Could it be that the number of forum posts isn't updated anymore? Mine still says "0" and, though I admit that I'm not an avid poster (we prefer to use Slack for quicker communication), the half-ugly number 0 should've been gone a couple of weeks ago...

Not a very important matter, but puzzling to me, so I hope that one of you might have an explanation on offer.

1. Munched feet/meters: Distance you have driven on unconfirmed roads.

2. Yes, but it can be running in the background

3. Paved Miles/Kilometers: Distance you have used the pave road feature in the client application. (Also see https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=194568)

Sorry to intrude in this thread, but I'm wondering things myself.

I use Waze on both an iOS and an Android device.
Although I am both logged in with the same user/mail/etc, the iOS device shows the name Wazer and the Android my real login name.
Sometimes 1 of the device shows that I have -1 points.

In addition, I notice that my points, kilometers and map edit are not going up. This despite the fact that I have driven several km and done map edits.
When I view the web version of my account, I don't see anything added.

Any ideas on what's going wrong and how it can be fixed?

Many thanks in advance,

Searchjaunt





 
First, those might not update daily. For example just now there is delay of about 4 days in ROW environment, you can see it at  Status Page. And that -1 point, it happens sometimes, then I suggest to close and restart the the app and wait some time before you go to scoreboard. I've noticed that sometimes it just needs to given some time and then it works again. Just wondering are you using those both devices at the same time with same account when driving? That is not allowed and there is some automation to detect those to prevent double points gain. It is perfectly all right to use multiple devices but just one at a time.

searchjaunt Greetings colleague.
Avoid using the same Waze user on more than 1 phone. 
There are some publishers who have had their app user blocked for that practice. I'm not sure, but presumably the app keeps some kind of history that somehow someone or some bot reviews to then proceed.

Ok, thx for the info concerning the delayed points.
Concerning the -1, It could be that I left the iOS (I'm not so used with closing apps on iOS) open at home whilst driving with the Android.

Any ideas why the iOS device shows the name Wazer and the Android my real login name
