Well, besides the sign for the dollar, the symbol is used worldwide for a symbol of capitalism, money, greed, Americanisation etc... I don't think it's out of place at all.

After shutting down Waze using the double-click, battery consumption was less than 1% per hour.
There is no difference in 'Switch off' or killing it from the task bar. Both functions issue use the same system API to shut down the Waze process. The difference in battery use comes from something else, definitely not from Waze, because with both methods there are no longer any Waze processes running.

The changeling didn't mention appradio fixes, even though there were a few. Due to the number of posts about it, that may be worth mentioning.

Two issues with 3.5.2:

#1) appradio keyboard still non-functional

#2) cant scroll through my Waze, or setting in appradio mode.

Search requires internet connection. Please make sure you are connected.

I have been getting the same error since the 3.5 update. I was working with perlin on the issues and sent some logs. I was hoping the 3.5.2 update would fix this issue.

@perlin, do you have any updates on this error?

Thanks!!

I cannot connect on Dashboard. Dashboard always show "Not connected", but in Waze-Client I can connect. If I click connect Dashboard ask for username and password, then show "Not connected" again.

Version 3.5.2 still show "still adding friends"

Pick_Up-/ShareRoute-Function don´t reconnect. If you drive in a tunnel, the connection ist lost and will not be reconnected, do the other person see the "Cancelled-Screen" the rest of my route.
Is there any possibility to automaticly reconnect?

An other thing is that sometimes I see the red text "Connection lost"(or something like that), but the other smartphone still see my shared route and the phone still shows reception. If route share still work I still have receiption,haven`t I? So why I have that text?

Having the Gas Icon is nice on the front page but, the distance it shows stations is worthless. The distance is only about 2.5 miles. I can take 2 different routes going to a destination with the gas prices varying by as much as 10 cents/gallon between the routes. Now I can't even see those stations as they are 5 miles or more away and the destination being about 25 miles away. I would like to know which route to take to get the cheapest gas but can't without loading a route and then selecting that route, looking at the prices, then selecting all routes and selecting the other route and then looking at the prices.

It is nice that it does show stations for a complete route of at least 100 miles (tested) so why can't it show stations around my current location with a larger radius??

Thanks

I've just updated the waze client on my iPhone 4 (latest iOS) and the waze can't connect correctly to Facebook. It's still showing me the "Still adding friends" and It doesn't show any of them. Also it sometimes ask to connect to facebook again. Any idea? I've already tried to delete and install waze again, however, didn't help...

EDIT: From now, it shows that I have no Facebook friends to waze... It's nonsense, I have about 10 fb friends who use waze (and who appeared on my waze till today's update)
Try to disconnect and connect on the web surface (under dashboard)
