  1. 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.

  2. New adult looking display... The update looks like a child designed it

    The new update on Android really killed Waze in my opinion. I like the new button layout and placements, but there are a few problems with the display.
    a) Color scheme - Looks like a child colored it in. I would like not so vibrant colors and more professional looking.
    b) The view port - It seems to show much more of the road you have already passed than it did before the update. I'm not concerned with the road I have already driven on, I would much rather see more ahead.
    c) Road Thickness - WAY too thick!!! At…

  3. 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.

  4. Interface for linking Waze with MyLink (Chevrolet and Opel multimedia system)

    I like and use Waze every day when I go to work, but watching and tapping the smartphone touchscreen is unconfortable and dangerous.
    Why don't you write an interface for linking Waze with MyLink (Chevrolet and Opel multimedia system) in order to use it through the car touchscreen? General Motors has already released APIs for the purpose, and the only one compatible navigation app is rather expensive and closed source...

    Thank you for your suggestion! We are currently not planning on adding MyLink support, since Waze works with both CarPlay and AndroidAuto, which should be available in most car models. Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s blog and social pages on Facebook and Instagram.

  5. Address the issue created by the latest update that blocks alternate routes from showing in the car's screen (iOS)

    Following the latest iOS update, alternate routes are no longer displayed in Apple Car.

  6. 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…

  7. Waze Login Screen - Missing "AutoFill Passwords" & "Associated Domains" for using password manager.

    Apple iOS has two core features when using a Password Manager to login. An app must have the "Autofill Password Entitlement" so the the autofill password feature in iOS appears on the top of the keyboard when on the login page, this allows you to access your password manger; without this you can use a password manager. The next core feature missing is the "Associated Domains Entitlement", this is the second part after autofill password implementation in the app. Associated domain set up on the apps login page will then allow a users saved credentials (username and password) to be…

  8. Needs to show and CALL OUT stop signs and traffic lights as needed for turns.

    In addition to showing stop signs and lights, call them out as needed for turns (instead of the distance). Apple Maps actually does a good job with this, a good example to follow.

  10. "Still There" should have a "Close Window" option

    When the "Still There" window pops up in Apple CarPlay, I frequently click the button just to make the window go away which results in sending the message that the hazard is still there even if it's not. It would be helpful if the default was "Close Window".

  11. "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.

    Thank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, Waze is already supported on CarPlay. Stay tuned for more feature updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram.

  13. 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.

  14. Orientações de direções no celular

    Aplicativo Waze é mal elaborado para o Android Auto em comparação com a Apple CarPlay.
    No Android Auto não é possível obter as orientações de direções no celular enquanto está ligado na tela do carro. Isso causa muito desconforto.
    Na Apple CarPlay o Waze está completamente redondo e sem apontamentos à fazer.

  15. Prevent Constant Navigation pop-up while using other CarPlay apps.

    I drive a Mazda CX-5 and whilst the car is in motion the CarPlay touchscreen is disabled and I interact with the interface using a wheel and buttons to move the focus and activate controls.

    When using Waze to navigate and switching to music or Spotify or another app Waze will pop up notifications for alerts or upcoming navigation events.

    When forced to use the wheel to control the interface this pop up is extremely annoying and interferes with controlling the CarPlay interface. It is so intrusive that I will be navigating songs etc and when I click to activate…

  17. 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.

  18. Android auto - Traffic bar - Traject controle - Traction control on the highway

    Hi,

    I miss the traction control on the highway, Traject controle in Dutch, before you enter it, it shows it but doesn't show the bar on the left side such as like on the phone.

    I miss the left bar where the start is of the traject controle.
    It's also a missed feature on Apple-Carplay
