Hi,
same problem described by patepat on Alcatel ONTOUCH with Android 4.1.1 but solution proposed by Vardok does not solve the issue.

I use Inrix traffic where I feel that they have the best traffic flow maps available. Just did an update and WOW they are right on Waze's heels, ofcourse they do not yet have the fan base yet...
Google / Waze better be looking over their sholder, if G's red tape slows down bug fixes they will be on the bottom looking up.

Just checked again on my way home. When I zoom out and back in again icons seem to dissapear and reappear, mostly other wazers... Zoomed out - it seems random, not just people driving fast...
When I first start the app I see very few Wazers - rebooted my phone and same thing.

Sound update - I have tried different settings and was not able to get notifications to pause my radio and get an audible alert. Loaded Bluetooth app and no help - uninstalled app.
Two weeks later I started using the navigation feature and now the directions play directly over all phone calls in progress when I am using my S4 vie bluetooth on my car. When I hang up the darn app plays muffled again through my phone's speaker... Any ideas ?
Unless we receive info of an update coming very shortly - waiting for some positive reviews on reloading an older version like 3.6.

Did it actually crash/force Close? otherwise it could have been closed by androids memory management, which can be quite aggressive sometimes.

Works fine for me but I think due to the various different Android builds and devices that's clearly not the case for everyone. I think that's why they have just made a drive for more Android beta testers so they can catch more issues in beta.

Generally there is little to no official feedback on here anyway although it is usually monitored.

The waze app used to be able to direct me to my office without any problem. For roughly the past two weeks it is completely screwed up when it tries to navigate me the last 1/4 mile or so. If you see the picture I have included a link for below, you'll see my destination marked, but the route given ends in the middle of an interstate highway. No matter which direction I come from waze has no idea how to get me to the proper location. See my second linked picture to see how waze won't even direct me to the correct location from the same street! I have repeatedly checked the surrounding roads to make sure an allowed turn hasn't been marked as not allowed and things like that, but it seems to check out fine.



Nothing to do with the client version.

Suggest you post in the navigation and routing forum, or the local US forum, as there are several issues with some edits that may not be helping your issue.
