On landscape mode the balloon with the name of the current road remains the same size of the portrait mode, the balloon can be bigger, because with the actual size almost every street name doesn't fit it
I would Love a fix for this!Kylrich wrote:Maybe this is a bug, or just user error, not sure. On an iphone 6S iOS9.1 and using Waze v4.0.1.1 and experiencing unique issue with 2015 Chevy Mylink bluetooth audio.
When I have sound set to "Prefer Bluetooth" or "Play sound to phone speaker" the map navigation audio is played through car bluetooth or on the phone respectively. The problem occurs on the next behavior: mylink interprets the audio prompt as as a phone call (i see elapsed time come up as 5 to 10 seconds on mylink) and then iphone music begins to play the first song in my iphone music app.
This is terribly frustratingwhen I'm listening to Sirius or FM radio because every time navigation audio plays it kicks me back into iphone music.
There are so many variable between myLink, iphone, and waze I can't be certain the root cause. Is there something I'm missing on waze or is this a known issue I couldn't find in searching other threads?
Thanks in advance for the assistance.
- Same issue with Mylink in my 2015 Corvette Z06. If Waze is set for speaker and Waze makes any sounds whatsoever, it flips Mylink from radio to iPhone music.
- Oddly enough, the MyLink in my 2013 Camaro is fine.
IOS 9.2.1 iPhone 6s Plus. Waze 4.2.0.
Thanks!
Why have you made it obligatory to provide location data even when the app is not running?
I see no reason for a GPS/satnav app to know where I am even when the app is not running.
I find this intrusive and taxing in terms of battery life.
IF this isn't fixed I will be removing the app.

Yes, I'm annoyed as well. Hopefully this is a bug and not a new feature.B_Carp wrote:Annoyingly, the "Alerts only" setting now gives sound when the path deviates from the Waze-directed path & also alerts to expected traffic time when I'm already in traffic. This is a new change in 4.0.1.

Thank you for a fresh voice. So much negativity in some comments here that it was getting quite depressing.redyar wrote:First of all, great progress on v.4.0.x - Waze now looks much more like a modern app, easier to navigate too.
Waze is aware of this and I'm sure they will remedy it. But Thank you for this additional input.redyar wrote:Two bugs found in both versions 4.0.0 and 4.0.1:
1. Lock North Up doesn't preserve between app restarts in most cases (sometimes it does preserve north up map lock but rather rarely);
2. Because of bug no.1 above, I have to click every time on a small icon on the right to lock it north up. When somebody shares a drive with me, there is a slider appears on the right as well, so I can't any longer click on that icon to lock map north up.

I agree with B_Carp. This new feature is hugely annoying. I'd like more granularity in my alert options and do not want my audio playback through my phone disturbed by the beeps for every re-route. I do want the alerts for traffic, police and so on, so I do need to program in my final destination, but I really don't want to "add a stop" for every intermediate stop and route change I make along the way.B_Carp wrote:Annoyingly, the "Alerts only" setting now gives sound when the path deviates from the Waze-directed path & also alerts to expected traffic time when I'm already in traffic.

I'm noting what I think is a bug in the Waze app. If I'm using my iphone to listen to a podcast (using DownCast) and pick up my iphone to look at it, the sound mutes and I get the microphone/listening.../tap to cancel display. I cancel. The iPhone then starts playing a random song from the Apple iTunes music app on my phone, rather than returning to the previously active app (DownCast).
I need to figure out how to avoid the microphone activation when I pick up the phone too. I just haven't researched that yet. I suppose I could take away Waze access to the microphone, but I may want to touch the microphone icon at times. I'll research this shortly; if there's an obvious setting I'm missing that takes care of this, I'm all ears.
