Hide “Work” shortcut in CarPlay when not set
When selecting the magnifying glass for an address in Waze on CarPlay, the first two options are the Home and Work shortcuts/favorites, which appear regardless if they have been setup in the app or not. This request is to hide either or both if there is not an address assigned (or have an option to hide them altogether).

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.

FIX the CarPlay map disappearing after driving for a few minutes
First off, it's infuriating that PROBLEMS can't be reported on the Support page.
The CarPlay map disappears after a few minutes of driving. All the control buttons remain, but the moving map is just a white field. This is a failure that makes Waze absolutely useless on CarPlay. This problem started with the latest iOS 5.19.1.0 version of Waze.2 votes -
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 HUD Navigation Missing on BMW OS8 (Apple CarPlay)
Category: Bug Report / Feature Integration
Platform: Apple CarPlay
Vehicle / System: BMW with Operating System 8 (OS8)
Description
When using Waze via Apple CarPlay, navigation instructions and turn-by-turn prompts are not displayed in the vehicle's Head-Up Display (HUD) under BMW OS8.
Important Context: The vehicle's CarPlay HUD interface is fully functional. When using Apple Maps, all turn-by-turn arrows and lane guidance are projected onto the HUD without any issues. The problem is specific to Waze, as the app currently does not seem to output the secondary screen navigation data required for the BMW HUD.
Expected Behavior

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?

Alerts should actually play through Carplay audio, rather than remain on my phone, too quiet to hear.
I have tried every setting suggestion that is outlined in your site, and my Waze alerts does not come through my Carplay audio, but stays in the phone. Alerts should actually play through Carplay audio, rather than remain on my phone, too quiet to hear.

issue with Waze on Apple CarPlay
Not a suggestion, but an issue.
I use Waze on Apple CarPlay. My car is a 2022 Range Rover Evoque. My phone is iPhone SE on iOS 16.5.1.
A nice facility does not work anymore. Waze being normally used (to get route indications), but selecting the Apple Music screen on Apple CarPlay, this Apple Music screen used to display (in addition to normal Apple Music information) at the bottom of the screen short (but precise) route indications (such as “turn left to Avenue XYZ in 30 meters”).
This facility has disappeared. Randomly it wakes up and gives one…1 voteThanks for reaching out.

Make map zoom buttons on CarPlay always be visible.
Currently, in CarPlay it takes several clicks in different locations of the screen just to get the map zoomed in/out just one step. Since the zoom buttons are so frequently used, please consider making them hot buttons (alway visible on the map). Seems silly to have to hunt down through the UI to find the zoom buttons, and that could be a safety issue as well.
Thanks!6 votes -
Report cop or accident on other side of the road through carplay
I love being able to use Waze through carplay, but I miss some of the features when you use it without carpaly. Reporting cops, hazards, or accidents on the other side of the road are important I feel. Can they please be added??

Automatically start saved route when in car (Android Auto/Apple Carplay)
It would be cool if you could save a router and set it to start automatically the next time you connect to android auto/apple carplay.
It would be a neat little time saver.
For people without auto/carplay this feature could use a specific Bluetooth device as car detection.

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

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.

Bigger buttons for CarPlay
Car Play - instead of tiny buttons and lines for the report an issue, bigger touch targets would be good. Instead of a scrolling list, a grid with taller, more square touch targets would be good

Map pinning on iPhone while using CarPlay
Hello Waze team! Please make it available to see/pin routes on iPhone while using CarPlay with Waze together. Im living in the place where I dont know names of streets(and im new to driving) and can only find the spot by using map. I always have to stop somewhere, disconnect my phone from carplay, find and pin the area, then connect back. Its very painful job, especially when traffic is full and there is no place to park. Whenever I start using waze with car play, I dont have an access to map on screen of my phone, cant…

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.

Create a toggle to turn off the next turn notification banners. They make CarPlay freeze up.
Toggle to turn off next turn notification banners when an app other than Waze is open on CarPlay. The notification banners cause CarPlay to freeze until they disappear.
