Hi Guys!

Just letting you know that I'm also one of the *not-so-many* WinPhone users who would like Waze for WinPhones getting some love from the devs. Or if there is really no further support or updates for WinPhones then it would be wise to man up and say so. You know, just don't leave the WinPhone users hangin'...

Peace!

No voice.

No voice.
Selected other country then reselected UK
Says Voice is "Simon" - 'TF - Wasn't even in the UK voice list.
Reinstalled App.
No voice.
Hard reset device.
Reinstalled App.
Umpteen times.
On wifi.
Still No voice.
Downloads voices on wifi (apart from Terminator - sticks at 0%), but regardless of what other voice is selected, nothing.

Windows version is dog muck.

THANKS GOOGLE.

I might just get a cheap android basher as I'm doing a lot of miles and it's saved me hours in the past.
Tom's and Kate's voices were permanently retired from the app globally. Nothing to do with phone OS or Waze version. Got the info from Waze news feed.

The app no longer works in US/Canada for Windows Phone users who reinstall the app. The only way to get it working still is via the International option (disable location & cellular data to get prompts to select International) outside of US/Canada. That is, it appears Maps and Navigation will not work in US/Canada any longer on Windows phones.

I'm on v3.7.4.5 on Windows 8.1 (HTC8X) and I can get to the share option:
- Menu > Send > Share Drive
- Send by Message or Send by email

There is another related section:
- Menu > Send > Send a Location
The options here are
- My current location
- My Destination (this is what I have selected)
- My Saved Locations
- Recently Searched

Hi,

If I look at route options via the Routes button or clicking the lower part of the screen, I can see alternate routes just fine. The problem is, when I click the back button or another route, I lose the center of the map.

In other words, I lose the option to center my car on the map. My map stays still and the car symbol drives right off the page and out of the field of view.

If I try to center the car on the map by touching the map screen, the zoom and north-up options appear, but the compass symbol that I would ordinarily click to center the map does not appear on the screen.

My only option to continue on with automatic map centering is to choose Navigation again and start over with my routing.

Has anyone else experienced this issue or have a solution?

Thanks,

I have v3.6.4.5 according to the Help/About screen. It also says the last this was updated was 2/24/2015 (last week). Windows 8.1, HTC8X.

Sorry if this has been asked before. I searched through quite a few posts and I didn't see a similar question/issue.

Hello,

After a reinstall because my Waze crashed on my Windows 10 phone a strange phenomenon appeared. I logged in but it seems that after november 24th 2015 (!) no synchronisation has taken place. So my inbox, my points and my favorites are all of that date after logging in...
The favorites I recreated (like the change of worklocation which I had in january 2015), but my points are still missing (a small 95.000 points...)
When I read the "to do's" it also mentions a verification code, but I don't see a send button or a place to enter that (I'm using the dutch version)?
Can anyone help me?

Thanx, Dameblue
