Yeah... I hadn't ever REALLY paid much attention to the live map, but I just checked... and man! It hasn't updated in AGES! What's the deal?!

Thanks, I just emailed them a permalink to my area. Hopefully they can figure it out soon.

Thank you for your email

Takes between 24 to 48 hours to update any changes done in the cartouche, and see it in the Live Map and in the Application in your cellphone
sometimes takes a little more, and can take almost a week.

This is an automatic process and don't require any user interaction
Sigh... sometimes it seems like they don't even bother to read the emails we send them. I feel like half the time they don't bother to respond with a correct (or even logical!) answer.

They've already acknowledged that there are problems with the live map updating process. It's pretty hard to not see that there's a problem, when many areas have live maps that are months old.

So if they've already acknowledged the problem and say they're working on it, I have no idea why they would respond to you saying "oh, just wait! It takes a few days!" Yeah, well, the live map in MY area hasn't updated in months. It's broken.

how long should be the delay between the edit on map and the client update?
Real time, some hours, some days?

It's mandatory to be area manager to add the update?

Currently I'm trying to update an italian map without luck on map I setted "no entrace" but the client still suggest to enter in this road, may be I'm totally new and I'm doing something wrong

Thanks
Edits usually take a few days to a week to appear in the client. That's probably why you aren't seeing them yet.

Note that the client maps (what you're asking about) NOT the live maps, which is what we are discussing in this post.
