  1. App closure after Apple CarPlay shutdown

    Please fix the app so it automatically closes after the car shuts off with Apple CarPlay. It used to do this until about 6-12 months ago. It’s annoying that Waze stays running when you get out of your car, draining your phone battery.

  2. CarPlay speed not padded

    The current speed, when connected to Apple CarPlay takes the speed from the vehicle and pads it by approx 11%.

    Please either show gps speed or car speed provided by vehicle. Padding not required.

  3. Waze no CarPlay pesquisa por voz

    Waze no CarPlay deveria ter a pesquisa de endereço por voz igual ao Google Maps. Isso facilitaria muito!

    Waze on CarPlay should have the same voice search as Google Maps. That would make it much easier!

    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

  4. Manually Disable CarPlay

    I much prefer to use CarPlay on my phone than on my faulty dim old car screen, but disabling Waze through my iPhone settings doesn’t work half the time so I keep needing to unplug my phone sacrificing my music and charging whenever I want to use Waze. I wish there was an in-app way to prevent CarPlay from accessing Waze so I could charge my phone while seeing the map on its screen.

  6. Add Dark Mode Toggle Button on Apple CarPlay Display

    On Apple CarPlay, when the vehicle headlights are on, Waze switches to Night Mode. This seems to be independent of the phone settings.

    The only way to change this is to use the phone app and change the Map Display/Dark Mode setting to Off. This is not a good solution while operating a vehicle.

    This could be fixed by adding a Day/Night (Dark Mode) toggle button on the CarPlay display.

  7. Split-screen view in CarPlay

    On a long trip, it’s nice to see how far along you are on the full route - but there’s not a lot of need for turn-by-turn on the highway. Please make a view that uses some of the large available space in CarPlay mode to show the “route overview” map next to the turn-by-turn.

  8. Carplay waze music

    Hi, I truly enjoying waze app in carplay but on full screen mode it would be perfect if it had shown people what their are listening at the moment. It would be wonderful if you added this feature. (yeah I know that it is possible to minimise waze and see palyer on screen but as I said it would be perfect to see what music is playing on full mode)

  10. Stop Taking over Car Audio in CarPlay

    It is extremely annoying when Waze opens on car play that it changes my audio source to the CarPlay as well. It’s so annoying that I have gone back to using Google or Apple Maps exclusively, as they do not do this.

  11. motorcycle display preferences for carplay

    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…

  13. Lane display in AA/CarPlay

    Hello,

    I suggest changing the lane display on Waze in CarPlay/Android Auto. The display is too small although there is the possibility of having a larger display without losing the basic instructions.

    Here is an example --> https://photos.app.goo.gl/yDCGB9X6EhJyWogAA

  14. Améliorer l’interface CarPlay

    J’aimerais pouvoir choisir le côté où le compteur s’affiche ainsi que la taille de cet affichage.
    J’aimerais aussi pouvoir choisir le côté où le bouton de signalement se trouve.
    Actuellement ces 2 paramètres sont à droite sur l’affichage CarPlay et donc c’est loin il faut tendre le bras alors que si c’était à gauche ce serait beaucoup plus visible et plus rapide à signaler.
    Il manque aussi les bornes de recharge Electra.
    Merci d’avance

  15. 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.

  16. Exit Waze when disconnecting from Apple CarPlay

    I love Waze for longer journeys, using it with Apple CarPlay. But I don't need it for popping to the shops - i.e. most daily journeys.

    However the App starts up on my phone every time I get in the car regardless, and then continues running even after I get out. It really drains my phone battery. I have to remember to close it manually. I can't find a way to stop this behaviour - it is a real pain.

    I'm sure it wasn't always like this, but this means I have had to disable Waze on my CarPlay

  17. improve interface with Apple Carplay

    When I plug my phone into the Carplay connector, I can use Waze with my car speakers, but it overrides the radio and doesn't switch back to the radio when Waze is done speaking. So every time Waze talks to me, I have to take my hand off the wheel to switch back to the radio. No wonder people use Apple maps!

  18. Waze CarPlay glitch

    When navigating in the background on Waze via Apple CarPlay, and trying to change music on Spotify in CarPlay, if I approach a turn, Waze starts popping up prompting me to return to Waze and see the map. However, when it's a simple instruction like "turn right ahead," I will try to minimize the navigation without viewing the map so I can continue selecting music. But the pop up WILL NOT STOP until I click it and go back to Waze to see the map - there is literally no way to ignore the navigational pop ups when…

  19. Carplay dark mode bug

    Plase fix the carplay bug when the background changes to dark mode then the “arrival min distance” square on the bottom stays white. Or it stays black when the map is white. Really annoying. Also make that square rounded also on the lower side like in apple maps.

  20. Waze doesn’t work with Ford CarPlay

    I removed Waze from my iPhone XS because it prevents the car’s audio volume from working properly when connected through USB CarPlay. Too bad because I otherwise like the app but that behavior is not acceptable. So I won’t use it anymore.
