Very long time this is not good.

Concerning title of the menu, In this particular text, full text is in french "Résultats de la recherche"
Only 3 chars are missing. I think there is the place to put them. You have to "auto-center" the text menu, and not put blank spaces on left of text.

Missing day, hours... etc. I thought that it could be a translation problem but I see that the lang.francais file is correct. Strange. These text are correctly shown in other languages.

Regarding the title - I can imagine that it's not easy to optimize the formating for all languages and screen resolutions. The text is proportional and I am not sure how easy/difficult is to calculate the width in pixels in advance in Android/iOS. It's better and easier to solve such minor problems in translation by an alternate text which fits.
Concerning title, I do not consider a bug, only an improvement... Not very important !

Concerning truncated right part of text, it is very important because the value "alone" do not give details...
I use to translate into French for Waze, but I don't know where the missing texts are in the Transifex files !

OK... Understand !
I will do my best.
What is surprising, there is no "Minutes ago" or "hours ago".
Prices are changing everydays... So minutes and hours are missing !

This is represented as "Today" for gas prices.
OK... Thanks

Still want the "E" converted to "€". In Europe, we use "€" and not "E".
In USA, they use "$, not "S".

This will benefit all who wants to put more info later when they reach their destination.

Uhh, that would be Japanese. You can also try Creole, but I heard that only works when you tilt tour device 180 degrees.

1) Go to search nearby gas stations.
2) Once getting results from Waze, click on Google search --> No results
3) Go back to Waze search... The first entry in the list has its texts centered !

Trafic is according to arrow 2 (this is good)
Littles arrows on the road are according to traffic direction (this is good)
But visual effect is that trafic is according to arrow 1 (this is not good).
In all other roads, the visual effect is good.

I find that after 7 hours the mapchat still pops up is a bit too long.
I have disabled Map chat... They are so unusefull and very anoying... Giving again and again everydays the same screen report... A bad feature for me !
