Waze maps lag BADLY when used via CarPlay on my 2022 Kia Telluride.
The Waze map display lags BADLY when used via CarPlay on my 2022 Kia telluride. The sound / alerts are correct but the map lags about a mile behind where I am located. It’s extremely frustrating. Please fix.

WiFi for CarPlay/AndroidAuto and Phone for Data
The key point here is that
I HAVE NOT SUBSCRIBED TO MY CAR's ONSTAR DATA PLAN- my iPhone is able to connect to the car over WiFi for Apple Car Play
- Waze is able to operate through "WiFi Car Play" on my car's infotainment system
- This is key: THE CAR DOES NOT HAVE A DATA PLAN. So while I'm connected to the car's local area network (LAN) my phone does not have wide area network (WAN) data through the car's WiFi.
- Since the phone is connected to the car over WiFi, Waze thinks it should have WAN data and doesn't…

Adding a “Smart Location Clipboard” Feature to Waze on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
Proposal: Adding a “Smart Location Clipboard” Feature to Waze on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
Current Issue:
When using Waze through CarPlay or Android Auto, drivers and map editors cannot directly save or share a location from the Waze interface.
To save a location, the driver must:
1. Disconnect the phone from CarPlay/Android Auto.
2. Open Waze on the phone.
3. Select “Share location.”
4. Exit the app.
5. Paste the location into Notes or another app and manually add details.This process is complicated, distracting for the driver, and in some cases, can cause accidents.
Proposed Solution –…

Fix Carplay Issue 🙄
This issue has been going on for a while & it does not matter if you use a certified charger cord- the infotainment system will still reboot. Dangerous & bad for business. I’ve had to rely on Google Maps.

Carplay display is glitching
Simple idea: make the display refreshing often enough so that the app is useable… and make the “still there” button working…?

CarPlay end navigation with voice command
I’d like to end my navigation early with a voice command. I’m surprised it’s not already available.
For example saying “hey siri and navigation” and it stops the navigation. Right now Waze gives an error “ Waze hasn't added support for that with Siri.“4 votes -
Blocked lane options laid out vertically in CarPlay. The options would appear as the actual road position and be more efficient
Would it be possible to lay out the blocked lane options vertically as it would appear on the road in CarPlay rather than horizontally?

Make current speed, speed limits and warnings the largest images on the CarPlay phone companion screen
Rather than next turns or route events shown on your phone screen when the maps are pushed to a CarPlay screen, can we have a large view of current speed, speed limits and upcoming road warnings instead (or as a third view option)?

Reporting hazards with Siri using Apple CarPlay and Waze
Waze has possibility to use Siri shortcuts to navigate home, work or other destinations, as well as setting level of notifications. Please add possibility to report hazards like police, stopped vehicle on the road, road works, traffic etc. Using Siri, this would increase safety dramatically as a driver would not need to touch the screen for that multiple times.

Alertas no mapa
Observei que nem todos os alertas que existem no app estão disponíveis quando o usuário está usando o Apple CarPlay, como, por exemplo, erro no mapa.
Muitas vezes preciso tirar o cabo para desconectar do carplay para fazer um alerta.
Sugiro que todos os alertas disponíveis no app apareçam também no Carplay

Move alert notification placement on CarPlay to avoid missing exit
When I receive an alert (I notice it most often when there’s a stopped car on side of road) on the Waze UI via CarPlay, the notification overlays on top of the upcoming exit/turn. In order to not miss my turn/exit, I’m forced to tap There/Not there just so I can get it out of the way. Not only is that frustrating for the driver but it’s also giving the app bad data.

Option to Increase Map Symbol Size in Waze for CarPlay
The map symbols in Waze on CarPlay are currently too small, especially when the map is zoomed out. Important icons such as mobile speed cameras are barely visible while driving.
We kindly request a feature that allows users to adjust the size of map symbols manually, either via settings or dynamic scaling. Ideally, symbols should be allowed to scale up to the size of the current vehicle position icon (navigation arrow) for better visibility.
This feature would greatly improve safety and usability, as many essential warnings are currently too easy to miss.
Thank you for considering this improvement.

Waze to have an option not to play sound from CarPlay as default
Currently regardless how the sound was set, Waze will always put sound on CarPlay as default and it cannot be changed. However due to some reason, I will need it to play throught my Bluetooth headset instead. Please have this option that available so that I can choose where to sound play from.
