Routing server timeouts - retry in the background

Sometimes everyone of us experiences routing server timeouts with an Oops/OK prompt. Then one needs to reclick the destination while driving, which is disturbing. Perhaps the client could have an option to retry a couple of times in the background, and then notify if all retries failed?

Google is top of the food chain and they can't handle something this simple? Is their goal to drive us back to Google Maps? Pathetic.

This problem is getting worse. Google should have fixed the routing server error problem a long time ago. Give the program back to the Israelis. They can keep it running.

All the time, especially when changing from wifi to LTE (on iPhone, MPTCP should just work) or from crappy OBD2 Wifi AP to LTE. 6, 7 times retrying to get a connection.

I get this all the time and need to retry while driving. Didn't happen before Google bought Waze

I love Waze, but it is very frustrating getting the routing server error. It will give me a route every time, but if I click the "routes" tab, many times I get the error
