Display destination on screen during navigation
Lately, I have repeatedly run into situations where, after driving for 1-2 hours, I have doubts whether I have selected the right destination. To be able to check this, I have to interrupt the navigation. This usually causes distractions while driving.
My suggestion is to introduce a display of the current destination above the estimated travel time field. This feature would be especially beneficial when using the Apple CarPlay integration. It would help users like me to always keep the desired destination in view, thus eliminating the dangerous interruptions during the drive.35 votes -
Add Google Maps Settings to Waze Car Play app
Please add settings to the CarPlay Waze app navigation screen as seen on the Google Maps screen.
I lost all sound on Waze which Waze support could not resolve.
Inadvertently I selected Google Maps and used its settings to reinstate the sound on Waze.2 votes -
Speed Limit Announcer
Waze should have the option of Current Speed Limit Announcer, everytime when the speed changes, or if your on the road, and the speedometer pops up for example, “35” in a 35 mph road, or “60” in a 60 mph road
Waze on your phone and/or CarPlay should speak “The speed limit is “35 mph” or “The speed limit is 60 mph”
It is a lot better than looking at your radio just to see the speed limit is posted to prevent a crash

Gesperrte Straßen
Die Angabe von gesperrten Straßen sollte ins Carplay mit aufgenommen werden. Es ist nicht sinnvoll erst auf das Handy zu wechseln. In dem Moment wenn man vor der gesperrten Straße steht möchte ich schnellstmöglich eine Umfahrung angezeigt bekommen

Enhance Waze on CarPlay’s Instrument Display
Thank you for adding Waze to the instrument cluster on CarPlay - it’s a huge improvement! However, the current implementation could be refined for better usability.
• The resolution is too low, making the map appear overly zoomed in with limited visibility of the road ahead.
• Key details, such as potholes and hazards, are missing.
• A higher-resolution option with a more zoomed-out view would greatly improve navigation.
• Adding a 3D perspective or allowing users to customise the zoom level would make it even more useful.Having Waze on the cluster display is fantastic for quick glances, but…

Add compass rose and time to turn features from Garmin to Android Auto/Carplay
Right now you can't see the compass rose which I use all the time on my Garmin to know which direction I am headed. It works on the phone app but not Android Auto.
Garmin also has a really nice time to turn feature that gives you an approximate time to your next turn. I find myself missing exits with waze as its easier to think in seconds than "1000 feet"

Neither the iPhone volume nor the XC40 volume work: any vocal message comes out at loud standard volume.

Motorcycle based map and speed display scale and legibility.
I have 5" carplay units on both of my motorcycles. (no this is not a display size issue). My preferred map software in carplay, is Waze, as I want the most crowdsourced information such as cops, traffic, construction, etc. My only problem on the motorcycle with carplay/Waze display is that the map is way too FINE and small print, the speed is too small, and red/black which are fairly impossible to read as they're both dark colors.
My ask, and idea, and suggestion... either basically control over the display SIZE to make the fonts and boldness of the…

Audio pop up
Have a small box (preferably in a corner) with prev, next, and pause along with album art and song name with preferred audio app when using full screen map on CarPlay/Auto rather than using just the half screen

Waze should not let other apps change “Play sounds via Bluetooth phone call”.
This screws up some vehicles interfacing with waze via their oem radios and oem phone controls. I want to use waze thru CarPlay but sounds ar3 lost and you cannot manually change setting back to phone controls.

Display actual GPS speed and not car’s info
When connected to CarPlay the speed on the supposedly gps speed in Waze always shows a 1km/h difference compared to that on the speedometer (at least in my case)
When NOT connected to CarPlay the difference is larger. At 90 km/h on the speedometer the speed in Waze is 85 km/h and at 140 the speed on Waze is 130. (Actual GPS speed)
When connecting to CarPlay a message says that the phone will use selected data from the car and this includes the car’s speed. However, this value is not accurate.
My request is for me to be able…1 vote -
Show search results on map
Waze search results are objectively inferior both in app and on android auto/carplay as compared to other popular navigation apps such as gmaps or apple maps.
Both of those apps display search results on a map view, with A, B, C etc pins with a selectable list on the side, and this works in app and on the in car head unit display. Google Maps also has a MUCH cleaner "add a stop" workflow.
This is a critical and basic feature gap that makes competing map applications much easier to use for searching18 votes -
Move hazard button
The hazard button should be moved from right of display screen to left for CarPlay. Currently I have a wide display that requires me to lean just to reach it.
It also should be made a bit bigger as it’s hard to hit it with the leaning.

Android Auto parked location
On Android Auto, Google maps pops up a little box that you tick to save your parking location. Not ideal but it works. I would rather have it work automatically. But it's better than nothing. Which is what Waze has. Waze has no option on Android Auto to save a parking location. Automatic or otherwise. The Carplay version of Waze does this. Please implement.

State name on the map
I recently used Waze on my CarPlay on a multi state trip and at no time I knew which state I was in. It would be a good idea to indicate the state's names somewhere on the display as you travel through them
