iOS beta 3.4.99.29 feedback thread

Along with the kitchen sink, how about adding the one-way arrows on roads in 3D mode?

I used 3d mode for the first time ever today, and while I liked it, I didn't find it at all useful for troubleshooting purposes from an editors standpoint. I just find that I can see a lot more detail in 2d mode and pick out errors. The lack of one way arrows is a deal killer for 3D.

I'm not sure if it's the same as the NA server (and with the beta version), but here on INTL (3.5 app store version)I think that the parking lots symbols (the ones that show up when you're nearing your destination) are gathered from Foursquare. They match some of the Foursquare locations that I found, but none of the Waze parking lot landmarks.

BINGO! That's exactly what it is. I just tried to navigate to "Poppie's Car" in Waze and I as I tried each search engine, it didn't find it but when I hit the FourSquare tab, it came up.

However, it can't be found in the actual FourSquare app, so there's no way I can flag it to get rid of it.

As posted in the 3.5 thread, and I didn't ask during original beta: why has the data compression option been removed? Is it on all the time by default? I have noticed that it appears Waze is using more data than v3.2 for the same commute distance.

It is now always on.

It will be a setting that you'll be able to decide to switch on if they'd like, which is something we'll need to work on in the future.

Also, there is no way to reply to private messages that come up in the inbox. I got one yesterday from someone who isn't on my friends list, and it didn't pop up on the screen, I assume because I had already shut it down, and there is no reply button or any other option.

If you open a message and click on the users real name (not sure if yo get this for non "Friends") it will try and connect to Facebook to message them. The problem is it's asking me to sign into Facebook again ... so much for single sign on!

If you sign in to this screen it takes me to my OWN Facebook page.

Known issue. It will be fixed, but not in the near versions.

Bug: stop route turns purple after requesting alternate routes

Here's what appears to be repeatable:
1. Set a route
2. Add a stop
3. Drive for a few miles
4. Request alternate routes
5. Look at the map view, zoom in and pan around
6. Tap select the tabs for the alternate routes
7. Tap the list button
8. Tap back

What happen: the route line to the stop point is purple instead of pink.

Known issue. It will happen even if you don't select the map view and just go back from the alternate routes list.

Disconnect from Facebook doesn't work. There is no way to unlink your account from fb within the app.

Even after re-opening the app?

Okay, it worked today. Previous attempts did not bring up the confirmation dialog box. It looks like there is a bug in there somewhere because it should always do it, not just sometimes.

Apparently it was a server issue and was fixed today.

Issue?: Where do you choose which fb account to link to of you want to change? Some people have linked under a spouse account and now want to use their own, or change to a special account for Waze sharing only. This has been brought up by other users and I can't see where to change it.

Waze pulls the credentials from the FB app that's installed on your device. Currently it's not possible to connect to one account through the app and to another through waze. It's gotta be synced.
