Ruben, I think this statement is a bit misleading (at least as I saw while testing in ROW):

Most of the editions that can be made to a single segment has no effect at all to LG data, i. e.: geometry, split, merge, changing [alternate] name, road type, preference, speed, even way of direction (from a one-way to a 2-way, for example).

Actually, something I thought was very clever of lane guidance interface is that when you edit the geometry of a segment, changing the angle between the segments sharing the junction, all the instructions in lanes tab are updated instantly, even before saving. It still keeps the instructions overriden manually, no matter what the new geometry is.

A few other editions do not delete LG per se, instead puts it in a kind of "invalid state": the arrows are shown in gray instead of blue in Lanes tab, with a tiny exclamation in a black circle, and they are not seen in the App. Examples: changing the direction of other segments sharing the same node, adding a new segment to the node, removing a segment from the node.

What to do, if line ends without junction (e.g. 2 line road -> 1 line road)?
Is there any way to map it? I think it's important information.

I was thinking about this situation:

In my opinion it would be good if driver receive information earlier, that line is going to end, so that he/she safely change to other line.

I can't even view lane guidance on any freeway, since they're all locked at level 5

Are there any plans to implement secondary junction guidance?
For example, this node in Toronto. If your route heads south on the DVP after this exit, Waze would inform you to use the second from the right lane. If your route headed north on the 404, Waze would use the far right lane.

I have tried, with the help of one of our LC's in the US, to delete and re-add the lanes, change the angles, and change the distances of the segments when able, and none have allowed lanes to show in the app. I see lanes everywhere else I have added them on my normal drives, it is just intersections with multiple close segments.

https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor/?lon= ... 713&zoom=6
https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor/?env= ... 262&zoom=6

Those are two intersections I drive on a near daily basis where lane guidance is no longer provided.

https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor/?env= ... 996&zoom=6

Lane Guidance works great at that intersection.
One of the differences in your examples is the former ones have turnarounds with LG on them. They have been testing the timing of the LG popups recently, so I'm thinking the LG on the turnarounds might be keeping the main intersection LG from popping up. I would experiment with temporarily removing the LG from the turnarounds to see if the main intersection starts working again.

Just my thoughts.

Where should I place the print-screens (of the beta version) to explain the problems and my suggestions? is this the correct thread?

All app beta discussions belong in CenterCode.

Are the heuristics only available when using RBS (Routing Beta Server) or is it broadly available?

This was asked recently and I didn't know that this is reserved to RBS.
