Apple Carplay HUD Integration Idrive 7
I am writing to formally request the implementation of Head-Up Display (HUD) turn-by-turn navigation support for the Waze iOS app via Apple CarPlay.
I currently drive a 2019 BMW 320d (G20) running iDrive 7. While Apple Maps seamlessly pushes navigation data, street names, and directional arrows directly to my windshield's HUD, Waze remains completely incompatible with this safety feature on iOS.
I am aware that Apple's CarPlay framework has included the necessary APIs for secondary displays for quite some time, and I know that Waze via Android Auto already projects to the HUD on iDrive 7. Furthermore, while the recent version 5.4 update brought instrument cluster support to newer iDrive 8 vehicles, it entirely bypassed both HUD integration and widespread systems like iDrive 7.
Having navigation prompts on the HUD is a critical safety feature that keeps drivers' eyes on the road. Currently, I am forced to run Apple Maps for the HUD visuals while keeping Waze running in the background for hazard alerts.
Please escalate this to your iOS development and product management teams. The BMW community relies heavily on Waze, and closing this feature gap between Android Auto and Apple CarPlay would vastly improve the driving experience.

New danger type: Ford (road crossing low water/river)
New danger type: Ford (road crossing low water / river)
Proposal:
Add a new fixed danger category in WME for "Ford" crossings (roads that pass through shallow water, seasonal streams, wadis, or low-water river crossings).Reasoning:
Ford crossings present a unique and recurring road hazard that is not fully covered by existing danger categories. These locations can become dangerous due to weather changes, flooding, water depth variation, reduced traction, or limited vehicle capability.Benefits:
Improves driver awareness before reaching the crossing
Helps prevent vehicles entering unsafe water conditions
Particularly useful in rural, desert, mountainous, and seasonal flood areas
Supports regions where paved bridges are unavailable and water crossings are part of normal routing
Improves routing quality and hazard information consistency
Provides better information for motorcycles, low-clearance vehicles, and drivers unfamiliar with local terrainImplementation possibility:
Add "Ford / Water Crossing" as a selectable fixed hazard type within WME fixed dangers, similar to existing permanent hazard categories.behavior:
Hazard icon visible on map and navigation screen
Optional seasonal severity attributes if future development allows
Examples:
Low-water crossings
Riverbed road crossings
Seasonal wadis
Roads designed to cross shallow streams without a bridgeThis addition would improve safety and map quality, especially in regions where ford crossings are common and represent a known recurring driving risk.
Thanks,
best regards.New danger type: Ford (road crossing low water / river)

Pedestrian / Person on road" to Hazard Reports (On Shoulder)
Currently, there is no specific option to report pedestrians or people walking along the side of the road. When driving on narrow suburban or rural roads that lack sidewalks, encountering people on the shoulder represents a major safety hazard.
Many users currently use the "Animal" or "Object" report as a workaround, but this is neither accurate nor clear for oncoming drivers.
Proposed Solution:
Please add a dedicated "Pedestrian" or "Person on shoulder" sub-option under the Hazard -> On shoulder reporting menu.Why this is useful:
Safety first: It would instantly alert drivers to slow down and pay extra attention, which is especially critical during nighttime, low-visibility conditions, or on roads without sidewalks.
Accuracy: Drivers will know exactly what kind of hazard to expect (a human being rather than an object or debris), drastically improving reaction times and preventing potential accidents.
Completeness: It fills a major gap in the current roadside hazard reporting system, protecting both drivers and vulnerable pedestrians.

Driving to work? Let's GO NOW!
When Waze asks "driving to work?" and I tap Go, Waze should just go directly to navigation per my preset preferences - instead of asking me two more times, and having me tap again and again in order to get going!

Warehouse services
Last year, a large apparel shipment for my online store arrived at the Tacoma port completely disorganized—pallets had shifted during the long voyage, boxes were crushed, and SKUs were mixed up, creating a nightmare right before our biggest sales push. After stressing over potential returns and refunds, a fellow importer recommended reliable rework freight services nearby. Their experienced crew in Fife sorted everything meticulously, rebuilt the pallets with proper bracing, repackaged damaged items, and got the inventory back into sellable condition quickly. What started as a potential disaster ended with almost no losses and fast redelivery. If messy or damaged freight disrupts your business like it did mine, this rework freight solution can quietly save the day.

Importing a planned route into Waze
My friends and I often go riding with the motorcycle, convertible, or old‑timer.
Most of the time we follow pre‑planned routes that are created in, for example, a .gpx file.It would be a real win‑win if Waze could offer a way to upload these planned routes, combined with real‑time obstacles, roadworks, and controls.
Right now, we can enter our destination and Waze gives us the most recent updates. We’re curious whether it might become possible in the future to import a planned route.
Fingers crossed already.

multiple navigation issues with recent update
- The cancel navigation button is completely unresponsive during a trip when i need to change the destination. I have to press it at least 15-30 times for it to take effect and cancel the navigation, sometimes cancelling and registering the tap on the screen as a tap on a location from a drop down list of recent destinations (which is not the desired change). I then have to spend another bunch of taps to cancel that navigation to input the correct destination.
- After tapping on a destination and selecting "Go Now", having to press "Go Now" a second time confirming the destination is redundant and distracting, even though there is an automatic count down after which time navigation will start, sometimes you are completely new to an area and need instant navigation right away. Why is this even built into the system that we have to tap "Go Now" twice.
- If i use voice command with Gemini in Android Auto to drive to a destination, the drop down list of recent locations does not disappear and I am unable to see next step of route (i.e. turn coming up in "x" kms, or take exit in "x" kms, etc). It also blocks all other buttons including speed circle display.

Зміна часу голосового сповіщення про повороти та зміну полоси
After the latest app update, the voice notifications for upcoming turns or lane changes started being announced much earlier than in the previous version.
In particular, the first turn notifications now begin as far as 1.5 kilometers before the actual turn, even on rural roads, which is inappropriate.
Previously, the notifications worked correctly and were announced shortly before the required turn or lane change (approximately 50 meters in urban areas), which allowed the driver to rely on voice guidance without being distracted by constantly checking the navigation screen.
The current change in notification distances creates a traffic safety risk, especially in cities with dense development, because the instruction to turn is announced when there are still several other turns before the correct one.Після останнього оновлення додатку голосові сповіщення про наступний поворот або зміну полоси почали оголошуватися набагато раніше ніж було у попередній версії.
При чому перші сповіщення про поворот починають оголошуватися аж за півтора кілометра до повороту навіть на сільських дорогах, що є недоречним.
Раніше сповіщення було коректним та оголошувалося безпосередньо перед необхідним поворотом або зміною полоси (десь за 50 метрів у населеному пункті), що дозволяло не відволікатися на екран навігатора для контролю карти і орієнтуватися на голосові підказки.
Теперішня зміна відстані сповіщень є аварійно небезпечною особливо у місті із щільною забудовою, оскільки сповіщення про необхідність повороту оголошується в той момент, коли мається ще декілька поворотів до того, який потрібен.After the latest app update, the voice notifications for upcoming turns or lane changes started being announced much earlier than in the previous version.

Add maximum toll budget filter (Tambahkan filter maksimum biaya tol)
Hi, it would be very helpful if Waze could add a feature to set a maximum toll fee limit. Instead of just "avoid tolls" entirely, we could filter routes based on our e-toll budget (for example: only show routes with total toll fees under Rp50,000). Thank you!
[Halo, akan sangat membantu jika Waze bisa menambahkan fitur untuk mengatur batas biaya tol maksimal. Jadi, alih-alih hanya sekadar pilihan "avoid tolls" sepenuhnya, kita bisa menyaring rute berdasarkan anggaran saldo e-toll kita (sebagai contoh: hanya menampilkan rute dengan total biaya tol di bawah Rp50.000). Terima kasih!]

When any type of emergency vehicle is on the side of the road doing an investigation the move over should be reminded i have been in emergen
Construction work. The move over rule should be reminded whether it's a red flashing screen.
Something to remind the driver. Oh, yeah. I'm supposed to move over before it's too late.
At the beginning.
Of the trip, a voice should be activated.
Reminding the driver.
One way or another. Be considerate move over in effect.Unfortunately, some of the drivers we have today.Don't realize that it IS LAW when there is an emergency vehicle, whether it's police or any other type of ESU
ESU = emergency service unit.
For 32 years, I have been apart of the ESU.
I know what it feels like to be pinned against a wool or vehicle.
Because somebody is not alert when they're behind the wheel or don't know.
The rules and regulations will common sense. A reminder at the beginning of the trip
Well, during the trip. There should be a warning a hazard.
About bicycles on the road. There are many bicyclists that ride their bicycles at night with dock clothing. No reflective gear.
Were lights in the dark on the shoulders?Construction work. The move over rule should be reminded whether it's a red flashing screen.
