Change font size on search results
When you enter a search the first summary line is <- Your location (in large font) -> address (in small font) The small font is hard to read (especially for those of us who need glasses for reading but not driving). It makes much more sense to have the "Your location" in small font (or not there at all because it is always the same text) and the desired address in the largest font possible on the screen

Audio ducking (lowering volume)
Could we kindly request the option to disable audio ducking, similar to other maps? I would prefer to manage the volume myself and not have music or audio automatically muted. This happens when both audio for Waze and music/audio books are played from the car speakers. I do not have the same issue with Google Maps.
Thank you for considering this request.

Overtaking
Overtaking lanes in Australia is a must. We have single lane highways and 3 trailer trucks to overtake, this will save so many accidents. It doesn’t need to be built into the map just as a button for the crowd to add so we know there is an overtaking lane coming up, we will wait before passing on dodgy roads filled with Kangaroos!

Waze app bug - super annoying
app runs in background after disconnecting from Apple CarPlay. Please fix this! It’s a battery killer, and super annoying to have to manually close after every trip. It’s enough to uninstall the app.

Waze should stop after disconnecting from car play
Waze starts automatically after connecting to carplay, but doesn’t turn off automatically after disconnecting from carplay. It should turn off automatically based on proximity to destination + carplay disconnect + optional couple minutes delay :) I think this will be a better user experience and will improve battery life of the user. I saw a few threads on reddit about this issue but without a solution.

Add stoplights and stop signs. It makes calculating your next turn much easier to figure out while driving in unfamiliar territory.
It is much easier to calculate your next turn when you have a landmark like a stop light or stop sign.

I would like to see again the icon where the downed animal is displayed
I would like to see again in the report in waze a designation about an animal being hit, I would also like to see, for example, about an animal that walks next to the road so that others do not hit it. Add this, it will be very useful)

iOS live activities
Hi Waze team.!
Apple has added live activities to iOS a long time ago which allows apps to show you stuff from the Dynamic Island . Apple are already utilizing this feature in their Apple Maps app and users of Apple Maps can see directions and other stuff even when they are not using the app in the foreground .
I would like to ask if you can add this feature as well as it will greatly improve the usability of the app.
Thank you !

Speed history
Keep speed history for past 90 days. Ability to sort it by dates or trips and map view. Log speed even when not navigating. Give user the ability to turn this feature on. This is useful when getting pulled over or camera ticket. This feature can be a expanded Google Maps "your timeline" with pin point speed history.

Speed limit alert
Hey Waze
I have a proposal that I think would help with traffic safety. You have already created a speed alert. The problem today is that it only gives an alarm once in a speed zone. To get a new alarm, you need to enter a new speed zone. I thought it might be a good idea to make it possible for you to choose to get an alarm as long as you drive too fast, and that you can choose the alarm tone and volume. In android auto, the speedometer is placed on the right side of the screen,…

speed camera popup
The speed camera warning popup obscures the lane guidance when used in Android Auto. Lane guidance is more important than the speed warning, especially when getting close to highway exits or when the upcoming turn is close to the speed camera. Please reduce the speed camera pop up or move it elsewhere!

Allow photo evidence of map errors
Allow photo evidence of map errors.
Sometimes trying to explain what error happened while driving is difficult to upload (while driving) and difficult to explain (after the fact) but allowing someone to upload a photo of the map when it is performing an error is much easier. It’s 2024. Why isn’t this a thing yet?

Add “avoid freeways” to drop down menu on map screen.
It would be super useful to have the option to avoid freeway’s using the drop down list instead of having to scroll through all the preferences to find it. Especially once you’ve already started driving, and you want to change routes. It’s much more useful than “avoid ferries” when you live in a big city. I have 3 freeways near my home, and when I need to go just a few miles it always wants to put on a freeway just to have me get off one exit later.

Add multiple saved addresses for quick access
In the home and work tab of the profile page, there is no option to add a saved place other than home or work, such as school, or another home address.
This would prove useful for say quickly navigating to the cabin on weekends without the address getting buried under all of the visited addresses of the past week.
Please add this in upcoming updates as I like using Waze to navigate, but I feel it lacks this simple feature that could make the app more efficient for many.
Thank you in advance

Use Waze app when connected to Android Auto
While connected to android auto you cannot use Waze on your phone, would be good to have the function of inputting addresses and cancelling routes, issue is to input anything from a phone you have to switch off Bluetooth or the car :(
Unfortunately using android auto in your car can be very tedious rather than simply doing it from your phone.
