Hidden Icons

Post by MrT0mcat
When I hide icons like the red light cameras for example, it still alerts me when I get close to one. Is there a way to not be alerted to the items that I want hidden?

Unfortunately, the setting "Display Settings>Show on map" is one setting that Waze has labeled accurately. It only turns off the icons from being shown on the map. It does not stop the alerts as gnsmith0204 has learned.
Turning off "Speed cams" turns off both speed cameras and red light cameras.

Thanks for the replies. Hopefully in the next rev they can turn off alerts to the items we would like hidden.

If you go to settings> display settings> show on map...you can uncheck what you don't want to be alerted to. However, I do not see "red light camera" ...only "speed cam" maybe this is an issue?
