Same inbox issue here on iPhone 5S 7.1.2

Also had an issue where the previous route's ETA was shown in a strange position while the device was in portrait mode. I've attached a screen shot. This happened both when I didn't have an active route, and as you can see, when I did have an active route. When in landscape mode, it is not seen.

The Scoreboard stopped working today, seems universal among iOS devices.. Please fix! It says:

Oops! Something went wrong... Sorry, there is a problem viewing this page. Please try again later.

The same happens on Android. Is this a server issue or app issue? Please fix!

Tap "more sending options" on the Share Drive page.

Yes, Waze is constantly using GPS and data sending/receiving. It's always been highly recommended to use a in-car charger. A 90-mile drive will likely drain your battery 50% or more depending on battery age.

When you upload with tapatalk, doesn't it ask you what size you want to upload?

EDIT: No, it doesn't. Hmm. It used to... :x

Holiday-optimized (different) routing is in planning.

:shock: what ? Really, Waze does not use live-info but learned habits ?
Absolutely. Historical traffic data is a big part of the routing code. Holidays and other events (closures) are out-of-norm and in order to optimize routing, knowing what days to capture traffic data differently is important for things like yearly events.

I discovered a problem with iOS 8 and the 'Prevent Auto-Lock' feature on my iPhone 6. After reporting a Gas Station Price, it's as if the 'Prevent Auto-Lock' feature gets turned off--my screen goes dark after a minute. However, if I toggle the 'Prevent Auto-Lock' off and on again after reporting a Gas Station Price it appears to work correctly. I just noticed this after upgrading to iOS 8.
