Even with battery optimización disabled, Waze shutsdown after a while when using with my motorcycle.
Hello, I use Waze mostly when I ride my motorcycle, so I choose a route and put my phone in my pocket and hear the directions through my buds. Even if I disabled battery optimizations Waze after a while shutsdown, so I need to stop my motorcycle somewhere and start again Waze and this is annoying, why you never solved this issue?
If battery optimizations is disabled, Waze should run in background till I close the app, something that is not happening, with Sygit this does not happen, it never closes.1 vote -
Cross App Collaboration
Hello
Not so much feedback, as a suggestion.
Have you ever thought about partnering with another app? Heard of Alert2Me?
Alert2Me (if you aren’t aware) collates and displays real time emergency information like flooding, bushfires, smoke or storm warnings. It has location based alerts, as well as user contributed reporting.
The idea of a collaboration struck me tonight after seeing a notification from Alert2Me about a nearby fire. Shortly, followed by having to pull off the road to let a fire truck pass, with no mention of it on Waze. It could be a neat little cross promotion and mutually…

Size of clock
Is it possible to increase the size of the current time clock? Very hard to see on a quick glance across especially in a right hand drive car.

Voice options for each phrase
Voice options is a nice feature. But to make it really great it must stop being boring and embarrasing by repeating same phrases every time (especially on fun voices, like Terminator or Zombie).
- Add several possible options for each phrase to make it less boring.
- Never repeat same joke twice in row.
- Only play jokes when time allows, e.g. 1,5 km remaining - a nice oportunity to crank one.
So just allow recording clear directions and jokes separately and mix them programmatically when makes sense.7 votes -
Do AWAY with cartoonish “rewards”
Do AWAY with the cartoonish rewards! This is a useful app and not a ridiculous game. Going 75mph down the highway and I “verify” a car on the side of the road and as soon as I do I come over a small rise and there’s a car in the left shoulder partially in the fast lane and the ridiculous cartoon rewards are still flashing so I can’t press the notification button to alert other drivers!! It’s either a game or a useful app, stop trying to make it both!!

Mixed routing strategy (Fastest, shortest, economical,... and others to come)
The "best" route is often a matter of personnal compromise.
It's often a mix of fastest, shortest, and more and more road cost / fuel economy.
I suggest we add a "Mixed" routing strategy, that could follow our preferences.We could think of a system starting with 100 points that the user would share among the different "strategies" of routing.
For instance, one could set :
* Fastest : 50 points
* Shortest : 30 points
* Economy : 20 points.That has the big advantage to allow other routing strategy for future.
* Less traffic lights : 5 points…29 votes -
Your new version wastes my time....
Your new version is not better. It's a step backwards. You require an extra step to plan a drive - why? When I want to save a destination, why do I have to search for it? Why doesn't this version have the capability to add a previously planned / driven route?
And where is the feedback input? "Suggestions" are not the same as feedback...

Ghost driver alert
A new alert would be interesting to have to alert drivers on a specific route that a ghost driver is coming their way and that they should be cautious, maybe telling them to stay in a lane and to reduce their speed.

Prevent Constant Navigation pop-up while using other CarPlay apps.
I drive a Mazda CX-5 and whilst the car is in motion the CarPlay touchscreen is disabled and I interact with the interface using a wheel and buttons to move the focus and activate controls.
When using Waze to navigate and switching to music or Spotify or another app Waze will pop up notifications for alerts or upcoming navigation events.
When forced to use the wheel to control the interface this pop up is extremely annoying and interferes with controlling the CarPlay interface. It is so intrusive that I will be navigating songs etc and when I click to activate…

Planned drive with expected weather forecast
At least once a year I go on a drive 800km drive during a period when the weather could be questionable, I generally look at the weather in major points along my route several days in advance to determine if we need to leave early or perhaps late to avoid weather. This year we left a couple of hours before a major storm, but managed to stay ahead of it.
I would like to see a planning mode where I could potentially input my planned destination into Waze a couple of weeks before my planned trip, along with my earliest…

The android auto waze agenda acess problem
There is no possibility to chose the scheduled destination using Waze with Android auto. Waze itself has an access to agenda, but not through Android auto

once I select a route Waze should keep it. I have found that even a slight change ie to get fuel. It often reverts to its own choice.
Waze off changes my route after I have selected one if I am forced to a detour. The one example is diving from Dalton, Ga to Olive Branch Ms. The shortest route is on Hwy 72. Waze wants me to take I-40. Further and worse traffic 1 minute faster.

Information
Is there any way when you change the route an reroute us you could tell us why so we can make a choice as what to do. I’ve been rerouted to some really sketchy roads and when driving alone it can be a bit scary.

Remove pics of street signs during navigating.
Used to before this last update I saw the street typed out during directions. Now it is a picture of the street. For instance it used to type out FM 423. Now it shows the sign you’d see while driving and I can’t read the street number to turn on because it is microscopic in the picture. I do not use sounds or voice during my driving so I rely heavily on reading my directions! Get rid of the pictures!

Was there an update?
Using CarPlay the option to look at and choose alternate routes is gone. It has been replaced with a second magnifying glass to search for addresses/locations.
Also, on the app on the telephone, you can see alternate routes, but you are unable to choose one different than the one Waze has picked for you.
Was there an update? If so, how can we undo it?
