waze iPhone release 1.6 available in store

Post by The Fej
Well, this time the upgrade went well and no problems located on store side.
So we are up and runing with 1.6 which is identical to 1.5.9.4 beta, I.e.
* Performance improvements
* Sync bug correction
* Ping-A-Wazer capability
Enjoy...

Does this address the issue with routes disappearing when network connection is lost?

I have been getting "Could not find road near departure point" for almost every destination I've planned in this version. Half the time, I get this message and I get a route anyway. It's ridiculous, as just about every single time the client has had me placed squarely on a road segment.

It's broken for now, but it isn't permanent. I'm having the same problem at the moment.

A number of connectivity issues were resolved in one of the latest App Store versions, if memory serves. There is something server-side that is keeping routes from showing; I don't think the client has anything to do with that specifically.

I'd imagine that it means the map tiles are not flagged for backup, which was the source of the huge delay. I agree that, if it's not in the app store description, it should be added.

I always contend that it's best to update to the App Store version, because then we can give feedback about what is now the only relevant version—since, being testers, we ostensibly give the best feedback.

On the contrary of some user i'm experience a good usability in this version at all.

One problem, really small is that points in iPhone are less that in Dashboard instead of rank that is good ...

Is it known ??
