Found the problem. In the sounds setting there is a switch for playing sound through the phone speaker. Didn't realize that when that was on, it meant DON'T play sound through the stereo. Flipped the switch and all is good. Seems like the switch could be labeled better.... Thanks!

In the app, go to Menu/My Waze/My Scoreboard/About Levels.
The level requirement / editor level is listed for each of the exclusive moods if you scroll down, starting with level 2.

I like the new simplified menu, new font set, and new app icon. However, adding a stop on a route is not very obvious with this new version. You have to Navigate first and then a pop-up will show up asking whether you want to re-navigate or add the destination as a stop. UX wise, it's not incredibly user friendly from my point of view.

However, there are several bug fixes that made me happy: regulating volume in-app, and notifications working.

Do gas prices work correctly now? (used to get an error after entering the price)

Just killing the app was successful.

Still problem with gas prices: "Ops, the price you entered doesn't seem to be correct". Is it because Waze only thinks US dollars?

Where are you located?
USD is vali inside the US...
But your local currency should be available for the gas price feature.
Is the price you're trying to enter much highjer than the last entered?
Norway. Waze shows the prices in Norwegian currency, and at last attempt to update the price had gone up with 0.5. The price is usually between 13,50-15,50 NOK (2,25-2,60 USD) for a litre.

Bug: On a road with a dead end. Enter a new navigation location, and click "routes". Select one of the routes (doesn't matter which one), and Waze cancels the navigation and I'm suddenly in no-navigation mode. If I just click on "go"(drive) right away, it goes into navigation mode as normal.

kooksie: I've noticed the same with the random no gps available, but I stay in the same spot, and after a few minutes it's ok.

I like the simplified menu, though it took me a while to find where they put the Reports button ("All reports" button is at the bottom after you click the Reports icon on the lower right of the map display).

Can't recall what else might be missing, though.

Also: We continue to get complaints (posted as URs on the editing map) about the traffic-congestion highlighting function. A lot of users want this option for surveying the landscape before they leave on a commute because they are easily able to plan their various stops.

Apparently this hasn't been fixed. It should get a higher priority, in my view.
