Such routes exist but are unknown to Waze because of a lack of user data, goodies can encourage enough use to change that. It was Real Life comic about munching goodies in Waze that turned me on to Waze.
+1 to that, and in addition, add candies for drivers. robin wrote an idea about adding the candies for drivers in places where we have no data, that would be a great improvement!

you can have my crown if the thread quits showing Active on my "view your posts" list. Your ideas are welcome, but they arent new. You can notice it by checking the rank and points forum, where you have been writing lately. The issue is it would be a low priority update for waze, because they choose other things to do first. In the meanwhile, let's be grateful about the drivers candy, it had been asked for a long time.

there are a lot of days since the editing points were not updated in the dashboard for some (or all) users.
If yes, when we could aspect that editing points will be up to date? thanks
Waze is investigating that. You wont lose your map edit count, so it is just a matter of time.

Not sure if it got to do anything with the candy stuff, but just to make it clear: the candy was taken out on purpose because a modification is taking place. The dashboard is still being investigated and waze will inform once it is fixed.

They will reimburse the candies you had saved before the candy was cancelled

Not true. I saved over 300 candies when I was on vacation and after that, until shirli cancelled them, I was still looting them. They didnt expire and didnt get added to your total by the end of the week. We had a post about this with jason in the champs forum and I guess it is still there. Also, you lose points. Marcelo had lost tje equivalent to 100 candies in points when he looted candies and the system didnt add them to the total. I think Adrian recognized that issue too.

We understood that point. If you didnt read, the last posts were related to how candies used to work before they were cancelled.
