Only say "Driving home" when you specify Home as the destination
When you say "Home" for your destination, Waze says "OK, driving home to <address>." i.e. "OK, driving home to 123 Given Street, Some City, H0H 0H0. It would be better if Waze said "OK, driving home" so that anyone within earshot does not learn the driver's home address.

Pop Up Sizing
Pop ups like drive now and directions now take over half the screed, even in a 10in display, this makes zero sense. .specially when the drive now shows destinations that are not really frequent, it was so simple before, only 2 options, home and work, i dont need to see a place i went to lunch 3 weeks ago on my pop up that takes half the screen every day! Cmon wazer team, this was a great app designed by people that seem like they used it, now, looks like the people designing this are only using it on a…

London
Dear Waze, thank you for a fantastic app.
Waze has helped so many people around London and more.
May I please suggest that the user interface be changed back to the previous version as it’s harder to navigate around the app. When going back to previous destinations and also deleting is harder and lengthy.
Very much appreciated. Thank you1 vote -

Revert user interface android auto
New interface is unusable on non touch screen interfaces. There should be an option to change back. The left menu now obscures half the map, making it harder to see where you're going. Confirming obstructions is now impossible with a scroll wheel, as you scroll along the options by the time you notice the button is highlighted its skipped to the next button but you are then unable to reverse the scroll back to the option, you have to scroll forward through everything again. Trying to access the menus or report obstructions is also pretty impossible with the new interface…

Revert your recent update
Your recent upgrade has brought my rating from 5 stars to 2 stars.... Did you test this??? Or just release it and cross your fingers. As someone with experience in software upgrades and testing I would have been sacked for the mess now masquerading as Waze. It wasn't broken so Why??

Black buttons on Black backgrounds are terrible
Your recent Android Auto updates have been horrendous. Instead of having colorful, vibrant, easily identifiable buttons, everything is now pure black with headache-inducing white text. Black buttons overlay black menus, and the driver cannot distinguish between any of the controls without taking their eyes off the road for long periods. Controls are scattered around the screen in tiny black dots like a spilled bag of marbles. Waze is now a dangerous app to use. Bring back color!! Bring back black text on light backgrounds!! Bring back menu bars!! Or at the very least, let the user CHOOSE to have the…

crucial alerts should be more informative and different from normal ones
Please inform user about Vignette condition and effect on the routes (in Switzerland)!
I am an avid fan and frequent user of waze. literally anywhere and anytime I am planning a route I use waze, and I always suggest and inform people about its benefits. But Yesterday we had a very bad experience using it.
Our trip was from Vaduz to Grindelwald (Switzerland)
Waze always alarms about C- Zones, Toll roads at the beginning of choosing the route, ... and it did the same about vignette but the confusing thing is that it did not say that we have to…1 vote -
Take a trip with friends/follow me function
Problem: when my friends and I take a trip with more than 1 car, it is difficult to keep both cars on the same route and with the same stops.
Potential solution: the abality to send a link that would sync up our drives to be able to see where they are on the route in real time. If the future route changes, the device that did not initiate the change would be able to accept the change. If either car gets off the shared route, a notification would be sent to both users and the user who is behind…

Bug reports on app should be easy!
As there was no bug report link in the app, I used map problem, and my bug report got rejected, not forwarded to the right people, so immature and unconstructive. I went to the link on the email rejecting it and that did not support bug reporting. So I am here, putting in 2 bug reports, the original problem and the lack of openness to constructive user feedback. Chrome has "Report an issue!" Waze is losing focus?

Remove the screen distractions
There are way too many map distractions/popups in the latest update. The drive/go now that pops up everytime Waze starts up is annoying and the main reason I left Google maps. Many of the added features (thank you pop-up on reports, resume drive) are totally unnecessary and there should be a way to customize it for users that do not want to see those distractions on the screen.

Notice if a location has had speed cameras/police cameras report multiple time in that locations
An alert if a location has had multiple reports of speed cameras or police in that location in the past.
I'm thinking of mobile speed camera traps that are moved around. The locations for both mobile speed traps and mobile speed vans tend to reuse the same locations.
So being able to have an alert saying cameras have been reported in this location previously would be brilliant.9 votes -

Why is the road works warning now a generic ‘Hazard’?
It’s important to give warnings as specific as possible so a driver concentrates on the road rather than studying a screen to find out what’s up. Forcing me to divert my attention to phone or display screen is downright dangerous. Please revert to specific warnings in the interest of road safety.

Écran trop chargé
Bonjour.
La nouvelle version est géniale.
Félicitations !Mais sur Android auto connecté à mon écran de voiture les indications de direction (rectangle noir en haut à gauche) sont trop grosses.
Surtout sur des écrans moins grands de 8 à 10 pouces.
On peut imaginer les réduire en taille ?
Merci pour votre travail 👏
