^^ Or do a re-calculation.

I noticed this happens most of the time after the Do you want to drive to pop-up.

About the 1080p fixes.
I don't really like it. On tablets it doesn't really work.
The streetnames are huge, while it was okey on the previous version.

To compare:
3.7.3:

Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this, but I just want to report an issue, and the "issues" forum said explicitly it wasn't the place to post bugs, so...

I was driving home from work today and Waze had me exit the 75mph, 3 lane freeway and follow the 45mph, 1 lane frontage road with stop signs for 8 miles. I was in full view of the freeway the entire time, and the traffic was fine, all the way up until about the 8 mile mark, where I would have gotten off the freeway anyway.

Then, instead of following the frontage road to my exit, Waze told me to take a 35mph side road.

I felt like someone was messing with me.

If someone from support would like to follow up on this, I can certainly provide more details via email.

Are Waze servers all saturated ? Or is it a bug ?
Same here.
Sunday evening, had to use another navigation app (that was working just fine) while Waze was unable to get any data... Particularly frustrating as traffic was heavy...
Glad I'm not the only one. This is one bug that is very annoying.

I'm going to try to find an .apk for 3.6 - anyone know where I can get it?
I have posted some where in the forum the link for version 3.6. Please search the forum. :D

Because both 3.7.2 and 3.7.3 were the buggy versions. The 3.7.3.1 was supposed to fix the crashing problem, but obviously it didn't.

IMO 3.7.2 works for certain brands as we have users complaining about after upgrade to 3.7.3.1 or 3.7.3.0, they experienced the client crashing when they click the navigation. After down grade to 3.7.2, the problem seems to have gone for them.

Sometime after the last update to Waze (might have been immediately after; i'm not sure) I'm getting a near constant "flickering" or "jumping" on the map view. It doesn't matter if I'm stationary or moving, but the screen constant flickers back and forth, as if the orientation is jumping from one view to another. It makes the app incredibly difficult to use. No other apps exhibit this behavior. Dialogue boxes in waze are stationary, it's just the map that jumps around.

I've tried changing the view to 2D, disable auto-zoom, and other settings but it doesn't alter the behavior. Restarting the app and phone has no affect the issue. Has anyone else seen this? Any ideas on what I can do to get the app to work normally again?
if you are facing this before 8 am, it's a known issue. Force the mode to permanent day / night mode and it should be solved. The problem is on auto mode where the transition from night to day mode.
