Alerts

Post by usa_3tzb81js
I would like see where all the alerts are before I get out on the highway. The only thing I see unless I'm doing something wrong is how many alerts are around . Can you show on the where they are exact location

It lists all of the reports with how far they are and a brief summary of where they are on your route (eg, "49.6 miles ahead/Police/I-80 E Near Garrettsville"). It isn't an exact location, but it will give you an idea of when and where they will be coming up (assuming they are still active when you get there). They will refresh as you drive.

As SkiDooGuy said, you can also zoom in and pan along your route to get a more specific location.
Hi by any chance, is this (reports ahead) available in android auto? I'm familiar with Waze in phone, but on Android Auto, i can't seem to be able to locate it. Not sure if it's there at all.

The most you can do that I am aware of is see the order of them along the route at the bottom of the screen.

Other than that you'd likely have to pan the map along your route to see where the actual reports are located. I understand that in the case of a long route, this would be a huge pain, but am not aware of any other way to achieve the result you want.
