Report road closures using carplay
Allow us to report road closures when using carplay. I can see this was suggested back in 2019 but still hasn't been actioned. Not only is this helpful in making other drivers aware, it also means i can be given an alternative route when faced with a closure. Currently, if i find a road closure waze becomes unusable as it repeatedly tries to re-route me back to the closed road.

Trajectory control on CarPlay
It would be nice to have a progress bar for trajectory control on CarPlay, just like it is on the iOS app. The big popup with the close button, as it is now, does not make sense at all. Even better would be if you could see your average speed during the trajectory.

Show turn by turn navigation on the main car dashboard using carplay

Following the update of my Apple phone 12 Pr Max to IOS 16, currently 16.1 there is considerable battery drain and overheating of the phone
Eversince I updated my iphone 12 pro max to IOS is whenever I use Apple Carplay and especially WAZE the phone overheats significantly in a very short timespan and also the battery drops dramatically in no time.
Is Waze aware of this problem ? Are they doing something to fix it.
The same issue does not occur when I use other navigation software’s in Apple Carplay.Please fix it as I can not continue using Waze with such dramatic battery use and overheating of the phone!

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.

UX buttons distribution
When waze asks if there is an accident/police/car/anything in the street the buttones are too close so if you are driving it is very difficult to answer yes or no, you should put the right and left or top and bottom, so it is easy to answer.

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…

Need an update for overheating phone!!
When using Waze on CarPlay it causes my phone to heat up quickly and end up stop charging and kills my battery ( 40% in an hour) by running Waze on CarPlay. This needs addressed. It started happening after the iOS 16 update and doesn’t do it with any other navigation app or any other app period.
Please fix this. Oh and add stop signs yield signs and traffic lights to the app as well.

turn not allowed for next turn on carplay
When the turn I need to make is not available, I should be able to say "turn not available" in the edits while using carplay.
There isn't a need to be able to edit multiple streets, just the turn Waze is asking for because I need to be able to be re-directed in a foreign area.5 votes -

CarPlay Final Destination
Please please please start making it where on Apple CarPlay the final destination pen is either on the left or the right where the final destination actually is because it’s always just on the right and that makes me think my destination is on the right but then when I look at the little flag icon that’s on the left that confuses me even more and takes my attention off the road

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.4 votes -
Make speed limit larger on apple carplay
I have read the responses to this issue. It seems to be a bot responding as:
Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.
That is NOT the issue. Just remove the speedometer and make the speed limit LARGER. Like it appears on Google Maps, which owns Waze.
