Perlin, what about adding the version number into the Store's News section?

Not sure I know how to do that :oops: I'll try to find out.
I assume most straightforward in "Waze-Web Pages (yml,html) / 3.7 Version - Store Text":

"- Bug & Crash fixes from May 30 release" - this string appeared just with 3.7.1
"- Stability & Bug fixes from Jun 6 release" - this one appeared just with 3.7.2

Yesterday I've got a route without the ETA box being displayed (reported already for previous versions). This state persisted over multiple route recalculations. App restart fixed it.

Yesterday and today I've noticed a nice "grouped report", yesterday consisting of 3 single reports (a manual traffic report and two roadwork hazard pins a bit further) and today (it disappeared too fast to play with around). The triple report could be scrolled horizontally:

Although the traffic jam report was just coincidentally in front of the roadworks along the route, I suppose that Waze logically tried to match them. Just that the color-coded traffic's line (where the first pin was placed at) always ends (with the stuck traffic as well) at traffic lights some half kilometer prior to the roadworks pins :) but never mind.

Two problems were bound with both yesterday's and today's multireports: they popped up as I was already a quarter hour past the location, and the map did not pan itself somewhere to them, but stayed at my current location.

Today I've noticed multiple times, when my phone with Waze on background was sluggish, that it consumes a lot of CPU (in the task list, always red using up to 48% on a dual-core SG Ace2). Usually it is listed using some 2-3% or similar amount. Nothing helps, just client restart. Unfortunately unable to reproduce.

For months long, occasionally an opened user popup can not be closed. It can at most be replaced with other user's popup. Only an app restart cures it. I'm seeing this a few times with each app version.

Funny thought :smile: I personally doubt they would implement such groundbreaking behavioral change and even that fast. Besides this, I still do see Waze among the consumers, in the 4% area, Maps is even lower. (I just can not manage to limit the hungry Android OS + Display tandem to consume less than their ~80% portion :-()

Sometimes it also happens, that particular drives do get processed with a few days' delay, especially during some outages (best to look into the editor, which are already listed there). It can then happen, that these drives will be counted towards the next week.

Hi,

Just moved over to Android from iOS - and Waze was one of the first apps that I installed.

However, I noticed that there seems to be no way of sending the voice prompts/directions to a Bluetooth device (ie, headset).

Under iOS it was there under Settings->Sound (Prefer Bluetooth), but that option is completely missing on my version of Waze (3.7.2) on my Nexus 4 (4.2.2).
