  1. Streamline CarPlay display

    I totally appreciate turning off the ability to add comments to traffic reports while on CarPlay. But if they're not going to expand so I can read something someone's already commented, can those green bubbles stay off the map?

    For accidents and road work, it would be nice to be able to see which lanes are closed (if any) to avoid merging at the last minute.

  2. iOS 16 CarPlay Bugs

    After the update to iOS 16, the Waze alerts changed their appearance with CarPlay. They no longer show distance, just one dull close button.

  3. Road Shields for Carplay and Android Auto

    Road Shields in the iOS and Android app look great! I suggest that road shield support is added to Carplay and Android Auto.

  4. Carplay "Update The Map" options

    When connected to Carplay why are the "Update The Map" options so limited? numerous times I want to update other Waze users to say a road is closed or similar but the options available in Carplay are reduced compared to the Phone app options? I end up having to disconnect my phone from the car to get the other options as also when connected to carplay the options on the phone are reduced to turn list etc

  7. CarPlay Display of My location

    It’s great that Waze is now available on CarPlay. However one thing I’ve noticed is the route ahead is often obscured by the turn/ETA tiles. This is because the location of your car is dead centre on the screen. If your location was offset to the side (like Google and Apple maps) this situation would be improved.

  8. CarPlay directions box option to hide?

    Firstly might be useful to a CarPlay area in drop down box above?

    As you can have directions listed on your iPhone whilst using CarPlay / you might know the basic route it would be great to be able to optionally hide the Directions box as it takes so much map real estate. Or maybe move to top left. It always seems top right is where I am going....

    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.

  10. CarPlay lagging issue suggestion

    Humble tips for the Waze developers:
    - if possible measure response times from the system. If they go out of bounds or no response, perhaps:
    - reduce the amount (reduce framerate) of mapdisplay data
    - reduce the number of calls per second
    - or stop sending mapdisplay data to CarPlay.
    - stop showing the map altogether and only show lane/direction arrows with exit names/numbers in these cars
    - Perhaps there is a function in CarPlay to clear the buffer and resynchronize the display to current position;
    - suggest that users should not use CarPlay in these cars for navigation.

  11. CarPlay voice reporting optional

    Please make voice reporting optional in CarPlay. I’m seeing significantly less reporting since this feature was installed. Plus, I get an error every time press the button and it won’t let me use voice if I wanted to.

  12. Report map issues on CarPlay screen

    When hitting report on the CarPlay screen, Map Issue isn't one of the options. If there is a map issue you cannot even do it from the phone since the display is different. You have to quickly unplug the phone from the car so Waze goes into normal phone mode, and do it from there. That is too much of a dangerous distraction messing around whit phone cables and the phone. Everything in the app should be easily accessible on the car play screen. For transcribing the map issue you can use voice to text, exactly how the iPhone works…

  16. Ability to disable auto-app start with CarPlay

    Stop automatically starting the app on the iPhone when CarPlay connects to the phone. Waze takes up too much resources on the phone. And I have to keep stopping it. None of my other navigation or map apps automatically start up with CarPlay.

  18. More integration with Apple CarPlay

    Will Waze ever have similar functionality, such as Apple Maps that more fully integrates in with Apple CarPlay, including the heads up display and the dashboard in addition to the navigation screen? I have a BMW and apples map capability, seamlessly integrates into the heads up display and the dash in addition to the NAV screen, and it would be great if Waze went through the same thing.
