True. The "Alerts time" article says that user's alert should be on a map at least 1 hour, but in fact it disappears after 15 minutes max. This is way too quick (at least for the Poland) IMO.

If it's not a bug or other countries need shorter timeouts then I suggest we set this timeout for 1,5 hours and then divide it by the "Road Rank" (i.e. short timeouts for busy roads).

The startpoint only appears on the map after i really search for a new destination but not when i go back to the map to tap on a road to set it as a destination point. :evil:
Same here :(

Here is a workaround: select a start point and then select any item from your history list as a destination. After that you can tap a road on the map to route there from the start point selected before.

IMO it does not matter who starts the thread. We always discuss releases in feedback threads and Waze staff always (at least) read it. Confirmed bugs go into Waze bugzilla: https://bugs.waze.com

And please stop sending PMs about reviews in Play Store. Thanks!

Sometimes I only notice when get to the destiny and grab the phone to turn off waze. It was already off.
Been happening to me every time now since the update. I turn Waze on, put the phone down, arrive at my destination and Waze is already off. The app is pretty much useless at this point.

Nexus 4 running 4.3 Build JWR66Y

Anyone know how to get back to the 3.7.2 build?

Hi All,
my phone: B94M with Android 4.2.1

Waze 3.7.3 crashes every time I try to:

- click on "navigate" button
- click on the search bar in the main view

It's impossible to navigate...

I've already tried to uninstall/install.

Never had such a problem before 3.7.3.

Thanks a lot

We found a temporary solution here: viewtopic.php?f=223&t=60066&p=542037 # p542037.

The bug occurs when you saved the address of your home or another address favorite.
You must delete all the rows in the "history" file that is on your SD card in the waze folder.

Hoping that an update fix this issue.
Thanks a lot!!!!
I deleted the whole directory "waze" (I had not specific setting, just "home" address) and it works!!
:D

Here's my (recent) problem, using Android 3.7.3 on a Nexus 4 phone, in the US: I cannot search for destinations. When I try, I get a "No Results Found" message. If I uninstall and reinstall Waze, search works for about a day, then stops working again. Everything else works fine. This has happened three times over the last two weeks. I submitted my log files.
Any ideas? I apologize if I'm in the wrong forum, but it's confusing trying to figure out exactly where and how to submit bug reports. I like Waze a lot, but if this can't be fixed, I will have to go back to Google maps.

+1 m-t-brandao I hadn't noticed the issues until I was on a long drive with a long section of road where Waze wouldn't alert me for a while, where I was due to turn it didn't alert me and once screen was back on the app had closed down. N4 4.3 latest Waze. Last one was perfect. What happened???!

I did a 3 hour drive over the weekend and prior to starting the journey the app closed down 4 times when I turned off the screen. When I drove I left the screen on and Waze did not crash.
