No, that's not a solution. I want to download and see the data. I just don't want to have them shown automatically always when I stop.
Yep, just a workaround for now, with side-effects. Honestly, I've run Waze for weeks before with data download turned off and noticed very little difference. Just don't get the street colors. But rerouting still works just fine.

There was an answer from Perlin in the ios 3.5.99.2 beta thread about the pious. I can't recall exactly what it is, and I do know I felt confused by the answer, but I believe Waze knows all about it.

I thought you could disable the automatic report popups when you stop: http://www.waze.com/wiki/index.php/FAQ# ... _moving.3F albeit with side effects that you may not want.

Anyway, I not yet see an official answer to the missed popup report issue.
In my opinion, limiting it at 5km's, it was a good feature when you are moving inside cities.
The popups that now appears are the group popups only; these ones are completely useless and they will appear also when moving. This is bad.
Any developer can help us?

Bye

Honestly, I wish to have an option in the Settings menu to disable the automatic report popups when I stop. At least in the navigation mode when I always want to see the map and my route. It's so annoying to see these popups at every crossing and have to close them manualy.

I like the informations but only when I want them - from the menu, in the map or via the warning popup when nearing to the report location.

Same thing.

Also, when the map zooms out right before a pop up would appear, and then zooms back in, several tiles are blank and do not reload until I start moving again.

I've had this issue too. I've been told that it was a bug or something in the last update.

Same problem here. Also, I get popups while I'm moving now, sometimes even on the highway, and these reports aren't even relevant to my commute route.
