Same thing for me. I use it most of the time with no sounds, and every couple weeks or so, my theory is every time the app has an update applied, it will revert back to Sounds On. This is really frustrating, because I don't know it's happened until I'm driving, and turning it off means 4 clicks including 2 on TINY buttons while I'm on the road. If there was a voice command for turning sounds off it wouldn't be so bad, but it really should keep my setting until I change it.

I have the same problem on iphone 5s (ios 7.0.6). Since upgrading to WAZE 3.8.1, searching for gas stations yields no results. Therefore, can't update gas prices or find gas stations for that matter.
Same here. Gas stations appear on the map while driving, but I cant perform a search or update prices. Waze: 3.8.12 - iOS: 7.1.2

Can anyone confirm if Appradio scrolling issues have been resolved with 3.8.1? Or any other comparability issues for the Pioneer Appradio?

I will keep posting this inquiry when there is an update in hopes of Appradio support from Waze.

Can't find if this has been reported before, but when using the Waze tab for search results, Places (both points and areas) do not display a street address. This would be very helpful for making sure you're going to the correct place.

Google Result:
Place Name
123 Fake Street, City, ST,
United States, City, ST
1.0 miles away

Waze Result:
Place Name
City, ST
1.0 miles away


I also noticed that place names won't match partial name searches. So a search for "Target" will not return "Super Target" as a Waze result.

When I'm using waze in the foreground and tunein radio in the background, as the map auto zooms out as my speed increases the radio starts skipping badly. As I slow down and stop the radio plays normally again. I've run in this mode for a year with no problems until the last release.

It's menu, sounds, disable sounds, close menu... So 4 clicks needed to change the option!

Have encountered the problem again myself today, and it isn't because the app updated (as it didn't) - it does seem to be an issue that occurs "at random" although I wonder if the "cleaning" process has run against waze, and it is that causing the sound option to be reset
