Add group option for friends traveling together
When you travel with friends, every time you follow one of them and this include to enter the destination for each vehicle (one waze per vehicle) just in case of one of them is lost in traffic.
The idea is to have a group option to invite your friends who travel with you to your waze group, one of them enter a destination and waze share automatically to the other group participant.
Maybe a chat can be available in the group to share about next destination or indicate an empty tank and a necessary refueling or something else.

Show saved locations standerd with recent searches
With an recent update, Waze opens on Android Car with recent searches. Not shown are pre-saved locations like 'work' or 'home'. So now I need to close the recent searches, click on pre-saved locations and click the destination. Previously i could directly click on the saved location. The new update cost more clicks and is slower accessible.

Bring back Deer sightings on or near road. Simply , road hazard is insufficient to warn drivers.
Being back deer on side of road or in road is much better than just saying road hazard . A simply road hazard does NOT give drivers proper heads up to avoid killing the animals and possibly themselves

Improve Reroute Efficiency
I find that when I'm driving my morning or afternoon commute, Waze isn't automatically updating my route as highway traffic evolves. While driving, I find myself repeatedly having to shut the app off and on to get the refreshed data to find the fastest route. I don't believe this is due to my cellular service, as I've performed speed tests at various points along my commute and achieved 20 mbps down and 5 up. If you could work on improving real time route efficiency based on quickest time to destination, your Wazers would be grateful.

New update doesn't work in android auto
Let us know how to fall back on the old version until you sort out the bugs. In Mazda 6 the selection knob doesn't seem to interact with Waze. If you finally managed to add tge new destination it only shows the destination itself on the map rather than the routing (although the pop-ups correspond to the routing). If you add tge destination before connecting sometimes it works however it is impossible to cancel the pop-up messages. Often just freezes up. Please let us know when will this be fixed and in the meantime let us know how to fall…

I want to give waze the routes I want to use for my commute by drawing them on a map & have it show me those route not the ones it selects?
I want to give waze the routes I want to use for my commute by drawing them on a map & have it show me those route not the ones it selects? Either draw it not the route map or enter a list of routes under my commute routes. Learning does not seem to be accurate or quick. I have done my route for 14 years I know the options it would be easy to draw a main route and set option segments. This would make the tool much more appealing quickly and more useful with less interaction while driving.…

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 -
Waze share the drive with a friend.
Share a drives destination with a friend or friend group, where everyone could see others in their navigation map.
And other friends could ether suggest or set a new destination to everyone. This could be acomplished by setting a user level within the group.
Also would be cool to have option to make these groups multiple and enable or disable them.2 votes -
have you ever thought about making a bluetooth remote for updating while driving
create a remote that has the most common updates on it - cop - vehicle on the side of the road - object in road - traffic. you would have to take your eyes of the road just hit the appropriate button for updating. updates would be more accurate and more people would participate in updating which it the whole point.

Single lane/double lane countdown
For roads that switch between single lane and double lane (in the same direction) forth and back, it would be nice to have a counter indicating how long it is left to next switch.
These kind of roads are common on the swedish country side.

SpeedCamera Notification (Close) to be moved
When there is a speed camera, a box appears showing how far away it is, but it covers the information box for:
• how much time is left to reach the destination
• how much distance is left to the destination
• what time you will arrive at your destinationI like the notification, but I don’t like that it covers this information. Maybe make it smaller, like a circle, or move it so it doesn’t cover the destination details.
There should be an option for us to choose from.

Make the planned trips feature an option in settings that can be turned off, in Android Auto.
Make the planned trips feature an option in settings that can be turned off, in Android Auto. Currently, you need to search for the destination first then confirm if you are going to that destination right away or go later to save it as planned drive. I search for a destination, the results pop up and I press/select my desired result. Then there’s an additional destination popup that has to be selected. I’m told the purpose of the additional steps is to have users an option to plan for a route in a later time. Google maps does not…

Police (Median)
We need a “Police (Median)” alert that warns traffic in both directions on an interstate. Police (hidden) and Police (other side) don't always apply. This alert would warn traffic in both directions of the interstate or divided highway, since most police run front and rear radars simultaneously.

Relocate speed trap notifications in Android Auto
When navigating a route on Waze for Android Auto, speed trap notifications overlap with the distance and time-to-destination information. This is a problem because in large cities we have speed traps with very short distances, which means that one of the main pieces of information is usually hidden from the driver. I suggest relocating these notifications so that the time to destination is always visible.
