  1. Fix speed icons size and location on screen.

    Speed icons are way too small to see. Countries that drive on right side move icons to left side of screen. Know problem for years. Please fix.

  2. Waze needs to turn off when unplugged from carplay

    For the love of god, why can’t the app just shut down when unplugged from the car? I just found my phone, blazing hot, in my purse after unplugging from car. I don’t need directions around my home or while running errands. This is so dumb.

  5. Audio pop up

    Have a small box (preferably in a corner) with prev, next, and pause along with album art and song name with preferred audio app when using full screen map on CarPlay/Auto rather than using just the half screen

  6. When using Apple car play there is no option to add a stop with the closest available location on route

    When using Apple car play there is no option to add a stop using the closest available location on your current route. It only shows by mileage but that can sometimes backtrack you.

  7. I use carplay and especially when using navigation the buttons that driver uses most are further away from the drivers reach making it unsaf

    I use carplay and especially when using navigation the buttons that driver uses most are further away from the drivers reach making it unsafe to access them while driving. As the displays are getting larger, the position of these critical buttons go farther away from the drivers reach. Place these action buttons closer to driver on the left hand side of the display.

    Please do some safety evaluation like they do when designing aviation cockpit and controls

  8. Street name covering nav line

    When I plug my iPhone 11 into the car play in my car and use the app, it can be frustrating that when I come to a turning, the street name often covers the route (the blue line) so I can't see the turning easily. I suggest fixing it so the street names never sit over the blue navigation line. Thanks.

  9. Please keep arrival time on screen during alerts.

    Please keep arrival time on screen when alert pops up while driving. Whenever I get speed, red light camera alerts, the arriving time disappears and comes back only after alert goes away.

    There is enough room in car play screen for both or make the alert smaller please. I would like to see, arrival time and remaining time left at all times.

    Thank you very much.
    I love Waze. Keep doing great job and happy holidays!!!!

  10. Action icons on left in CarPlay (US) so driver doesn’t need to reach across

    Put the action icons on the left (in countries where cars are on right of road) when displaying in CarPlay so the driver does not need to reach across to use them. Notifications should appear on right instead of left.

  12. Customise CarPlay view

    On wide screen car screens Waze buttons are all too small. Make a setting screen to customise the size and layout of the onscreen elements to make it easier to use especially with a touch screen. The Apple buttons have recently been improved in a similar way

  13. Display destination on screen during navigation

    Lately, I have repeatedly run into situations where, after driving for 1-2 hours, I have doubts whether I have selected the right destination. To be able to check this, I have to interrupt the navigation. This usually causes distractions while driving.
    My suggestion is to introduce a display of the current destination above the estimated travel time field. This feature would be especially beneficial when using the Apple CarPlay integration. It would help users like me to always keep the desired destination in view, thus eliminating the dangerous interruptions during the drive.

  14. CarPlay Menus. Make them short

    Menus selection of CarPlay when reporting hazards or any such activity shall not be more than 2 clicks part.

    Some of the menus are terribly long picks. Report Hazard, then read and select where and then read and select what?

    Is it expected that drivers, while driving and observing, shall read that many options & menus and punch in that much click and menus to report an event in CarPlay. Distracting and dangerous on freeways.

    Make it short of no more than 2 clicks away and more visual.

  15. CarPlay Instrument Cluster Support

    Apple CarPlay has started to support instrument clusters (Display behind the steering wheel), however so far it only supports Apple Maps. Developers have said this is available for apps like Waze to utilize, but you guys would have to update it to support that. I was hoping you guys could push this update as it would be very convenient and helpful. Currently using CarPlay on a Land Rover with the latest Pivi system. Thank you!

  16. Car play reroute move too far away

    The reroute button in CarPlay just got move from the left side the the right side of the screen. Most commonly used button now is too far of a reach for a driver. Dumb dumb dumb. Please for the love of Waze move it back to the left side of the car play screen

  17. Add Soundcloud and to Audio Player

    Soundcloud is the only popular audio player that is not included in the media/audio player. I have seen a lot of other people request that this be added.

  20. Ability to Select HOV Routes in Carplay

    Right now, when checking different routes, you cannot select an HOV route in Carplay (they just do not show up). You can still select it in the iOS app, but for some reason the Carplay app won't accept the route when you select it from the app. It requires you to select a route on the Carplay app (which doesn't include the HOV routes).

    The only workaround I found is to set the HOV route before you connect to Carplay, but if you update the route during the trip, it loses the HOV route ability unless you disconnect Carplay while…
