When reinstalling Waze on a new device or reset device, the installation will be corrupted if the app was on the SD card
If you've had Waze on an SD card and you restore or get a new phone and restore settings, the new installation will be on the internal storage but the settings will point to the SD card.
This means that your profile icon, maps, and voices will all be broken.
To fix, you can go into application settings and move Waze to SD storage. It would be nice if you didn't have to do this.
