More accurate "share your drive" with your Wazer friends
More accurate "share your drive" with your Wazer friends, please. At the moment it will update my location on map approx. every 2-3min but i would really like to see almost a real time location on map.
If you share your drive with non-wazer and he/she watch your journey via browser, it looks way better because my Waze figure moves on the map all the time. I assume this location is estimation based on travel time but it's still way better than figure which doesn't move at all or moves point to point every now and then.

Display the next 3 turns and distances on the main screen / apple car play screen / android auto screen

We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

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…

put music controls on the waze screen so I can forward, back, pause and play my music whilst watching the waze screen
Please can you put music controls onto the main screen. I listen to my smartphone music in my car and it would be great to be able to fast forward, rewind, paus and play tracks whilst keeping the waze screen visible. Thanks.

Show the same traffic animation of the Waze App also on the Livemap
Every time I watch the traffic around me on the Livemap I'm bothered by the traffic jam indication.
In the app I like the animation which shows the direction of the traffic jam, the colours and also that the average speed is shown.
In comparison to that the solution of the Livemap is fairly ugly in my opinion. There are just little lines that vanish from time to time with different zoom levels. They are very pale and have no glowing colours like it's displayed in the app.
I'd like to see beautiful traffic jam animations within the Livemap.

Workers Present and Emergency Vehicles
Maybe add a report for highway maintenance workers present. And perhaps generalize police to emergency vehicle present to include fire and ambulance. Police watch the highway for more than just speeders. It’s not always a good idea for everybody (such as drunk drivers) to know about specific police presence

CarPlay volumn
Hello
I am so grateful that Waze now works with CarPlay on my new Mercedes E300. I noticed that Waze will reduce the volume of other apps on my iPhone, so that I can continue to hear the other app in the background as Waze provides navigation.
However, Waze appears to connect to CarPlay via the car's navigation volume control while other CarPlay apps connect to CarPlay via the car's entertainment volume control. Consequently, CarPlay stops other audio while Waze makes navigation announcements.
Nice would be a optional setting in Waze for how the app connects to CarPlay, via navigation…6 votes -
Please bring back in app notification & icon that someone is watching our drive.
A couple of app updates ago we lost the written notification and icon on the map that shows that someone is watching our drive. Any plans to bring this back? When I send a link to follow my drive to a non-Wazer, it was helpful to know someone clicked on the link, particularly when coordinating a meeting spot and time. Please consider bringing this back!

Please add Siri Shortcuts support for hazard and police reporting in Waze on iOS
Please add Siri Shortcuts support for hazard and police reporting in Waze on iOS. This would allow users—especially those using CarPlay or driving hands-free—to report visual sightings safely and legally.
Apple Maps already supports this (“Hey Siri, report a speed check”), but Waze does not. Since Waze has the most active crowdsourcing community, this feature would significantly improve:
• Driver safety (hands-free hazard reporting)
• Community contribution (more real-time data from CarPlay users)
• Accessibility (voice input for users who can’t interact with the screen)Suggested implementation:
• Expose actions like “Report police (visible/hidden), crash, hazard” to Siri Shortcuts
•…13 votesGreat news! Siri is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out. You may also refer to this link to learn more about on how to use Siri shortcuts in Waze.

Please can you allow integration to move around the icons for Music and Speedo on the map
Be able to move the speedo around. I understand this varys on left or right hand drive options. But just being able to move it around will be great. The music for spotify/apple music would be great too

Show international borders on route
It would be very helpful to show international borders. For some reason these are not visible once the route is chosen. Due to uncertain wait times at some borders, which Waze isn't very good at calculating, it would be helpful to at least display them and let drivers make choices based on other information (there are other apps that monitor these wait times, such as Border Watch). Also, had I not already known that Waze was sending me through Albania, I would have been unable to avoid additional charges, hassles, and delays (Albania requires extra documentation from European drivers…

Smartwatch support: Would love to be able to get alerts such as police by my watch vibrating, so I don't miss any alerts.
I'd love to get alerts on my smartwatch so I can get alerts in a more discreet way.

Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s blog and social pages on Facebook and Instagram. -

Navigation Notification Pop-ups
I have an iPhone 11 Pro updated to the latest software, iOS 16. When I use Waze for navigation and then go to my Home Screen I cannot see my navigation, or rather when I am close to a turn or freeway exit then I do not receive a notification at all warning me.
On the contrary, when I use Apple Maps for navigation anywhere and I go to the Home Screen, or even lock my phone for that matter, then I will receive pop-up notifications (even on my watch, take that Waze!) with directions on where to exit…2 votesThanks for reaching out.

Add Moderate Traffic option in CarPlay Report
Within Apple Carplay, reporting traffic you only get two options… “Heavy” or “Standstill”. There is no option for “Moderate” or a general “Traffic” option. Please add!
