I would really like to see Waze available in CarPlay Split Screen
Now that this functionality has been made available it would be really good to be able to use Waze in Split Screen so that I can see Music and Waze rather than Music and Apple Maps and therefore have to revert back to Full Screen for Waze.
1 voteGreat news! Waze is now available on the CarPlay Dashboard. Thanks for your suggestion.

Carplay
It would be nice to use it instead of apples gps and to have mr T's voice again. The car play is a must!

Layout problem with iPhone 14Pro
Speed display is behind dynamic island in Apple iPhone 14Pro Mobile phone. It is quite annoying to guess if the speed is 61 or 81 when only last number is visible.

provide a Navigation Prompt whenever the road name changes.
This is needed in two scenarios:
When a turn from Smith Ave to Jones Street, for example, is slight enough the client provides no direction. No matter how slight the angle of entry to a new road is, the client should say "turn right" or "slight right" on the road with a different name than the current road. This is especially confusing if Waze is running in the background, since my eyes are telling me I'm at an interchange and Waze isn't providing direction.Also, when the road you are driving on changes names but continues straight in the same…

Bring back the report list on iOS!!
Please bring back the list of reports on iOS!!! I used to use that option all of the time, to decide which route I was going to take or see what I needed to watch out for, before I set out. Now I can only see what's going on when i set a route in the car to leave, which defeats my purpose of analyzing which way to go. I like to do this before i set out. Not the last second as I'm ready to drive. I use waze to travel long distances and I can't get a good…

Using the smartphone's front camera for alert about driver's tiredness
In Android there is a feature named "smart stay" which allows the smartphone to recognize, using the front camera, if the user is watching the screen (in order to turn off the screen when not in use) - see
http://www.androidcentral.com/how-use-smart-stay-galaxy-s3I wonder whether it would be possible to create a similar function in Waze, that would recognize (by visually recognizing when the eyes close for longer than a fraction of second) and alert if the driver falls asleep. If this is possible (even partially), it can save lives.

Alerter par la voix
Alerter par la voix comme Google et Apple. C’est plus sécuritaire et correspond à l’esprit Waze.

CarPlay enhancement
When using Apple CarPlay, the location triangle is placed WAY too high on the map, allowing only about 25% of the direction to be visible. 75% of the map is where I have already driven, which is useless information. I’d rather have the map show me where I’m going; it where I’ve been. Also, the location triable pin is HUGE and takes up too much space on the map.

Accurate speed
When using Apple Car Play, my speed is continuously 12+mph over what I am actually doing. I can use the app on my phone just fine it’s accurate within + or - 2mph. I am confused as to why my truck displays such a difference. Brand new truck, brand new iPhone. All updates to apps and devices as required.

"Expert" setting for voice prompts
I use my phone for streaming SiriusXM as well as for Waze navigation, I'd love the ability to have an "expert" setting for voice prompts. So it would say "Hazard Ahead" instead of "Watch out, Hazard Reported on Road Ahead" making the interruption to my music or entertainment shorter but still getting my attention.

Notifications when screen off, like Google Maps
Google Maps has a very practical feature for travelers who frequently use the same route over and over: Turn your phone screen off, and you'll be notified whenever turns are coming up. If you know the route, maybe it's a long one and you just want to be reminded not to miss turns, it's really useful to have these notifications.
In Google Maps, this notification feature extends really well onto Pebble watches, so your wrist gets a gentle vibration for each upcoming turn while the phone screen is off.
Could Waze please raise turn notifications when the screen is…

"Express" Hazard Reporting
Love Waze, but I don't like how many actual touches are required to report a hazard. The more time it takes to report a hazard, the more time your eyes are not watching the road. Also, the most common hazard I see is a car stopped on the shoulder. I'd like a two-touch way of reporting this. If the report menu could be customizable to include a "quick report" option for the most common hazard a driver encounters, this would be a solution.
20 votesYou can long tap or swipe up the Report button to bring up the most common reports – saves a click. Also, consider voice reporting!

Audio apps on carplay
Youtube Music, Spotify, iHeart Radio, etc. have integrations with the waze app to show current track info on waze, I'd like to see that track info displayed on waze when using Apple Carplay.
I'd like to see both navigation and track info showing on the Carplay screen, either through the carplay dashboard screen, or inside the Waze app

Have Waze include road names in audio directions
Apple Maps includes road names in its verbal directions. Instead of In .1 of a mile turn right, then left, it's "In one tenth of a mile, make a right on Treadway Cove and then take the next left on McAllister Lane." Verbal directions on Apple Maps are far superior to what Waze and Google Maps offer.
