Better voice search in CarPlay mode and categories like Gas, Food, etc
Better voice search in CarPlay mode and categories like Gas, Food, etc so you don’t have to take your eyes off the road and use the phone. I find myself having to close the Waze app in CarPlay and open up Apple maps just to find a place for a new route because typing in destinations in the Waze CarPlay mode doesn’t bring up closely relevant destinations, and voice search just brings up a map with no way to select anything. Just take a look at how Google Maps and Apple Maps does this feature. Especially for selecting categories like…

Waze/ Carplay crashes at toll booths in Spain and France
Had Mercedes C300 rental car 2025, driving through Basque country in NE Spain and SW France. Ever since time I passed through a toll booth carplay and waze would crash and it would take some playing around to restart. Does anyone else encounter this issue? Major safety issue getting the app and carplay restarted. I think there may be a frequency from toll booths that disrupts the wireless carplay

Opening Waze on Apple Carplay cuts off radio - doesn't with other map apps
When I open Waze on Apple Carplay in my car my music/radio will stop playing (switches from Radio/Sirius to iPod on my Pioneer Nex). I have to manually go back and turn the music back on. This doesn't happen when I open Google Maps or Apple Maps.

Please fix dark mode in Apple Carplay.
It’s been broke since last update. It only works right when I open the app on my phone and radio at the same time, which negates the purpose of carplay being handsfree. I’ve been patiently awaiting an update for weeks, but I’m about to delete your app for burning my retinas every morning when I drive to work in the dark.

під час вмикання додатку через carplay, додаток не знаходить мою геопозицію і не може побудувати правильно маршрут. Помилка вирішується, якщо запускати додаток з телефону.

Increase the map speedometer when using Apple Carplay after iOS26 upgrade.
After the iOS26 update when using the Apple Carplay the speedometer was changed to a tinny version, very hard to see when driving. The overall experience with the carplay was better, the new carplay itself changed to a better resolution that fits better the 10inch display of my car, the only exception is the small speedometer used by Waze. Please, add an option that allow the user to configure the size of the speedometer when using Carplay.

Route at CarPlay Waze map partially hidden by some Waze infos
Waze map at CarPlay for BMW X2 is displayed only on 2/3 of the screen. This blocks almost half of the route, hiding it below some Waze screen information and making it difficult to use Waze at CarPlay. I would like to send some pictures of this problem.

Alerts should actually play through Carplay audio, rather than remain on my phone, too quiet to hear.

Add customize issue reporting button onto android auto or CarPlay interface
Allow users to customize addition of one frequently used “reporting issue” button to the android auto or CarPlay interface. Too many steps just to report a road hazard for example and that means eyes off the road, increasing risk factor for users.

CarPlay button layout
I especially notice on the thank you/not there button but I often hit the wrong button when they are vertical. Any way to go to more of an icon horizontal layout?

Headup display on windshield for carplay/android auto
Reposting because it has not been implemented
Hello Waze Team,
This post is to strongly urge the prioritization of full integration with Apple CarPlay to enable turn-by-turn navigation on built-in Head-Up Displays (HUD) and digital instrument clusters.
This remains one of the most critical safety and convenience features missing from Waze, and it's a primary reason why many drivers reluctantly switch to Apple Maps when using CarPlay.
The Technical Framework Exists
We understand that enabling this feature is entirely possible within Apple's provided framework. The process is initiated by implementing the mapTemplateShouldProvideNavigationMetadata(_:) delegate method. By returning true from this…

Action icons on left in CarPlay (US) so driver doesn’t need to reach across
Put the action icons on the left (in countries where cars are on right of road) when displaying in CarPlay so the driver does not need to reach across to use them. Notifications should appear on right instead of left.
44 votesThanks for your feedback and apologies for any confusion. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Show speed on phone while using carplay
First request: Sorry if in the wrong area.
When using CarPlay the UI on the phone should allow the speed to also be shown. As it currently stands it's only a breakdown of directions and that's it with seemingly zero way to configure what is seen.
Because the CarPlay app notoriously has a poor read of the current speed and often does not show the speed limit like the phone app does (often just shows a speed number but no indication of the speed limit of the area. And will sometimes show how much over an individual is going but…

Waze está teniendo graves problemas con Apple CarPlay
Se bloquea CarPlay frecuentemente con Waze. Cuando se conecta mi IPhone a mi auto, nunca muestra correctamente el mapa, siempre debo cerrar Waze y reiniciarlo para que funcione.
Por otro lado, últimamente muestra rutas más largas o con más tráfico. Se ha vuelto muy impreciso, cuando antes era fenomenal en este aspecto2 votesThanks for reaching out.

Give the possibility to the user to inhibit Waze to be opened in CarPlay.
Sulla mia VW il sistema CarPlay è veramente fatto male. E per me sarebbe 1000 volte più comodo continuare usare Waze con me l’ho sempre usato sul telefono. Quindi sarebbe bello se ci fosse l’opzione all’interno dell’applicazione per disabilitare CarPlay.

I want back the ALWAYS LIGHT MODE in CarPlay
I have read that lots of people complained about not having dark mode.
But I need the ALWAYS LIGHT MODE due to its much easier readability in CarPlay.
Right now dark mode is enforced, because I have two options in CarPlay settings with IOS Waze 4.79: dark or automatic. In case of automatic when the headlights is switched on then dark mode is activated.
It happens so EVEN IF I CHOOSE DARK OFF in the app settings on my iphone.
Please revert to a 3-way solution in CarPlay:
- ALWAYS DARK MODE
2 ALWAYS LIGHT MODE
- AUTOMATIC
