And a request - can you post here or send me examples the team can investigate? coordinates, screenshots, whatever you can. Thanks!

Thanks for all the feedback and examples, updating the team here.

We are planning to change that, but there's no time table yet. It's a complex issue, so bear with us

The map is 3-6 months old...sometimes. depending on the zoom level

The bad publicity that Waze got in IL last week was caused by that

Sounds that it's news to Waze that the live map is never up to date....

Thanks,

As zeze said in Tier1 , The company is busy developing un-needed stuff instead of fixing core issues that the community complains for years

Will the address database continue to be used by Google maps or will Livemap behave the same as the waze application?

I had shared some feedback and asked questions in the other thread, so did Olestas:

I like the changes with moving the Edit the map button from the bottom left to the right to regroup everything, nice one

Question1: Are the 5 routes of different colors definitely gone to favor 3 blue routes only? The new design looks good I'm just wondering if it's a test or if "less is more" is the definitive way you decided to go in the end.

Question2: Are you aware of this request regarding some Emojis being incompatible with the Livemap?

Generally speaking when looking at status.waze.com we expect the client's map to contain changes we make on WME as indicated by the updates there, however when we look at the Livemap it's often not the case and sometimes even weeks or months later it still shows outdated mapping.

Regarding the zoom reference, he means that sometimes we look at the Livemap at a certain zooms and we see the updated map tile, then at other zooms we see the outdated map tile.

As you may or may not know, many countries in Europe switched from a Toll roads system in Waze to a "toll sticker/vignette" system in the form of HOV and Toll passes to add from the navigations menu.
This works great in the App if you've added the right pass, but the Livemap seems to be having trouble since passes are not selectable. I'm aware of the URL tricks to get RBS, Taxi and Motorcycle modes, Avoid tolls, danger zones, ferries or dangerous turns.. But what do we do for passes?

I honestly don't know how many people make use of the Livemap in the countries that switched to this system, but it seems that right now it has become unreliable due to this change, as it will always choose non-pass-required roads making the ETA's wrong for the majority of people trying to find the fastest route with it.

Any short-term solution for right now? And any other long-term solution on the road map?

It used to work like that on the Livemap until recently. I remember it clearly because it annoyed me immensely. Sometimes I just wanted to get a better view and since the context pop-up has no [X] to close it I had no way to get rid of it as it was blocking my view and each click just re-opened a new one.

I would find it a step backwards if they were to make it work like that again, unless they add an [X] box allowing to just close it to clear the view if you don't need a new one to open.
