The new android auto version is way worse than before. To many steps and lost the intuitive side. Fix it please.
The new update for Android auto is worse than before.
When you find the adress the cursor is not on the spot and very easy to miss the spot, on the other side we need to travel 2/3 steps to press initiate, very anoying and not safe to do that while driving.
When there is a warning it's a nightmare to confirm or deny specialy if the cursor goes to the bottom section.
It's worse, please fix it!1 vote -
Allow reporting of issues from a PC
I don't use my phone when I'm on my motorcycle but would like to be able to report things I see once I reach my destination. I should be able to, from my PC or my phone, report issues which are not at my current location.

First responders
As a First Responder there should be a way to for us to update more information on traffic accidents and incidents that would allow us to give first hand accounts to get people to slow down or avoid an area all together. People refuse to slow down when we are working on the side ofthe road.

The lane departure arrow should be green for the departure lane and should flash as well to make it easy for the driver to spot which side to keep or go

4.70.1.0 for Android - disable automatic "recent locations" tab
Why would you even bother adding such a thing? I don't need it. I know where to go for recent locations. I don't want to see it pop up every time I start waze.
Keep up these "improvements" and I'll be switching apps. Stop dumbing down the UI. Quit piling more and more crap on the main screen. There is no point. I want a map. I want traffic (audible) alerts. When using a destination, I want audible turn-by-turn directions. THAT'S ALL.
And TURN OFF THAT DAMNED CHIRP. Or, give me a toggle where I can turn it off.…

New destinations on the go
Hi. Add this feature needed (especially por taxi drivers). When you have a route set from Point A to Point B, be able to add a point C, and D and Etc on the go, to go after point B (not before) without changing the route that already exists. And the application show you how much time and distance it will take you to go from A to C. Contact me for a better explanation if you don't understand. To keep things short. You should be able to add a new destination to go after the one that you already…

Right hand drive vehicles
The current set up on CarPlay is set up for left hand drive vehicles, here in the uk using the report functions is difficult, and also it looks odd that the directions are on the right side of the screen and the map is on the left, it’s difficult to see, please add an option to mirror everything for RHD vehicles, thank you :)

Handicapped parking
As a handicapped person, it is frustrating when Waze leads me to a parking lot away from my destination. For example one my doctors offices has only handicapped places in front of it, but Waze sent me to a lot a block away.

parking lot landmarks / traffic analysis
I would like to see certain landmarks not count as traffic analysis. If an area is marked as a restaurant, parking lot, gas station, etc.. the time a waze client spends there should NOT count against traffic analysis. Wazers can't be expecte to turn their nav system on and off just to order a burger, or fill up the tank. In reality, a nav system should be as "hands off" as possible for the daily commute. start waze when you get in the car.. go on your trip, pull over at the gas station and leave waze running. go through…

Voice search button for destinations using apple carplay.
Carplay voice input was taken away (microphone icon). I can no longer search via voice for directions to any place. Now I can only use iphone maps or google maps. Seems strange to remove a vital feature as now I cannot get directions to places with my voice.

Parking Entrances and Most Common Parking Locations
When driving to a destination, the street address does not always correspond to the street where you park. In the case of someone in a condo (like me), the garage entrance is at the side of the building, not at the front. The roads you take to the address is not the same as where you would go if you want the parking garage (some one way streets would require you go around the block).
While I could mark home as the side street, there are similar problems for retail stores, where because of divided roads, parking lots, multiple…

route overview
Please add an option to see either a birds-eye overview or a turn-by-turn list (or both?) of the route Waze is taking me on.
Sometimes I know I want to avoid a particular road. So when Waze plots a route for me at the start, I can review the proposed alternate routes and choose one. But if I need to deviate from that route to make a side errand maybe, Waze will recalculate my route on the fly, going back to its #1 preferred route. If I'm not paying close attention, this sends me back over to the road I…

Reduce taps required from search to navigation
Currently from the time I see an address for which I've searched to when I'm able to just drive and see the map and directions, there are FOUR TAPS in between those two things happening.
Tap 1 — Seeing the address as text in search results.
Tap 2 — Seeing the address as an official box in results.
Tap 3 — Seeing the address on a map with parking options
Tap 4 — Directions calculated, and clearing option to choose routes.When a person is starting to drive, that's quite frustrating.
I just want to GO. Please reduce this to…

multiple workplaces
I work at two locations throughout the week. Previous to this job I enjoyed that my work was always easily accessible at the top of the suggestions list. Now that i work at two locations, i wish i still had this option. I currently have them both saved under my favorites, but this requires me to click into the favorites folder, meaning i have to navigate multiple screens rather than having my destination pinned at the top. This simple change would be a major QOL upgrade for any Wazer with multiple workplaces.

BRING BACK OLD VERSION!
Bring back old version! I'm a Crown user and used to be your biggest fan. The Waze app was simple easy to view, easy to use. New app is hard to see (tiny difficult to understand icons for hazards), lost functionality (cannot post road hazard for opposite side of road, you only kept this feature on police reporting). The new look is terrible I hate it.

A new feature designed for planning a trip with friend pickups along the way to the final destination. To avoid significantly extending the route or creating major detours, instead of entering the exact addresses of friends as stops, there should be an option to pick them up from a location close enough to their homes but not too far off the main route—such as a spot that is about a 3-5 minute walk from their homes in the direction of the planned trip.
It should be emphasized that this is not an economic model, but rather a way to…0 votes -
User coud select correct lane
In my country (Brazil), there are many places with Express & Local lanes running side by side.
In that case when Waze makes the route and the traffic changes quickly, I decide to choose a different lane (for exemple express instead of local), I wanted to be able to "touch" the screen and select the correct lane, so Waze could re-route and show me the rights options to continue my route.
2 votesGreat news! Lane guidance feature is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Easier Navigation Means Safer Driving
When your getting close to your destination, the app normally lets you see which side it’s going to be on and a picture will show up (normally the picture is never there) but instead of all that I would really appreciate if the address popped up. It’s so frustrating when I’m in the middle of a delivery and have to back petal to find the address somewhere else because I’m also trying to navigate my surroundings and I can’t remember the house numbers. Just a thought for the future..

Improve routing server system
Help customers by giving consistent, high-quality service through your routing server.
I am a long-time user of Waze and I live in Dayton, Ohio. In more than one quarter of my travels, Waze fails with a "routing server timeout" not just once each time, but repeatedly until I stop trying. Grrrrr.
The failure rate is even higher when I travel outside of the Dayton area. Please fix your service or redesign the routing server logic.

Then I have to enter…17 votes
