Allow users to choose to display routes on their Phone instead forcing on the Android Auto
Allow users to choose whether to use their phone as Waze for routes or Android Auto as the main display, instead of forcing it to display on Android Auto. Some people want to stream music using Android Auto and use their phones to see directions, as it doesn't distract them from the road. Some head units in cars are positioned lower from the direction of the road and are more of a hassle to look at while driving.

Adjust the location of alerts
In Android Auto, whenever an alert appears, it hides the search buttons, alternative routes, sound, and especially the button to create an alert. This means you have to close the alert to access the create alert button. This wastes time creating the alert and makes it unsafe, as this additional step distracts the driver.
One suggestion is to have alerts appear below the traffic directions without pushing the interface to the right.

Pause button
Other people have asked for a pause button. It's annoying and potentially dangerous to fiddle with the app while driving. One button would be helpful.

Choose Route in Android Auto
When using Android Auto, allow users to choose from available routes, regardless if Avoid Tolls, Freeways, etc... is selected.
Route choice is available directly in the Waze app, however, when connected, Android Auto locks the Waze app preventing the user from accessing it directly from the phone (love that safety feature)!
Please allow users to choose a route when using the app, including tolls or no tolls.

Bring back the passenger exception
I use android auto and my wife copilots using her phone. Now she cannot use her phone to scan for places to stop or check for obstacles especially in an rv. Waze is now useless for road trips. Back to another map because waze is the only one w this restriction.

Add Road Closure Reporting to Android Auto
I’d like to raise this again because it’s a major issue. A report was already made last year about adding Road Closure Reporting to Android Auto and it gained hundreds of votes and comments, yet there’s still been no visible progress or update.
Right now, Android Auto users are stuck driving into the same closed roads multiple times because we can’t report closures directly from the interface. Using the phone is unsafe (and illegal without a holder), and even when pulling over to try, the route often recalculates before the closure can be reported.
This feature already exists in the…

Android Auto display on instrument cluster on VW Group cars
I've hit this issue and according to research it has been reported by other people using Waze Android Auto on VW Group cars.
In my case I have a Skoda Superb, and when using Waze Android Auto navigation, the instrument cluster will often(/always) show incorrect symbols for turns.
It seems to mostly go wrong for roundabouts, which the UK has many of. Roundabout direction icons will either incorrectly show as just a turn, or in the worst cases a right turn at a roundabout will show with a U-turn symbol.
This confusing display has been enough to stop me using…

Option to add Places and Gas prices
The Option to add gas prices and places when stopped on Android auto. Currently, I have to stop, turn my vehicle off and wait for my phone to stop trying to recconect to andriod auto, then I can open waze and add the place or gas price. I can do the same when I am stopped and looking at the gas price or the place but not when I am connected to the car.

dans l'image déportée derrière le volant (pas l'écran principal) il faudrait que l'image indique la "vraie" sortie; pas l'ia$mage de faire demi tour. En cela Google Maps est parfait

Hazard/alert notification not showing in split screen.
Hi, alert widget that showed on top of the media app on split screen has been removed?
It was so useful!
Now everytime that there's an alert I have to tap on the map to make it fullscreen and then tap on the confirmation button.
I love AA in split screen and that little widget on top of media app when there is an alert on waze was useful.Now I'm forced not to confirm or do nothing so I won't be distracted because I have to tap more times, leading to less contributions.
My screen is only 7", well…

Launcher not functional
The latest update prevents use on the mobile screen while connected to Android Auto. The button to intentionally exclude Waze from the Android launcher is not functional. The Waze map only works on the car screen (if Waze is included in the launcher). If Waze is not in the launcher, the map does not work on the phone and, regardless of the settings, it refers to Android Auto and only displays line-by-line navigation commands on the phone, not the map. Please restore the original settings and fix the update error!

Add setting option to keep navigation on phone when using Android Auto.
I keep my phone by the steering wheel so my eyes do not leave the road. Android Auto is for my passengers. I don't look at it while driving! Many people are like me. I even downgraded my Waze to get past this issue. But the downgrade no longer works! So I have to disable Android Auto to safely use Waze!!!!!

Incorrect Symbol in HUD and Widget for Roundabouts via Android Auto
Issue: Incorrect Symbol in HUD and Widget for Roundabouts via Android Auto
Vehicle: Smart #3 Brabus
Phone: OnePlus 13
Problem: When using Waze through Android Auto, roundabouts show incorrect navigation symbols in the car’s HUD and media widget. This does not happen in Google Maps.
The main screen shows correct instructions, but the HUD and widget display incorrect icons — often showing wrong turn direction or exit.
Please verify if the Android Auto metadata (like NavigationTemplate or TripInfo) is being sent correctly by Waze for HUD integration.4 votes -
Add compass rose and time to turn features from Garmin to Android Auto/Carplay
Right now you can't see the compass rose which I use all the time on my Garmin to know which direction I am headed. It works on the phone app but not Android Auto.
Garmin also has a really nice time to turn feature that gives you an approximate time to your next turn. I find myself missing exits with waze as its easier to think in seconds than "1000 feet"

Please enlarge the Font on the maps. With the latest update, they are too small. Also, please restore the OLD icons.
Please enlarge the Font on the maps. With the latest update, they are too small.
Also, please restore the OLD icons. The new ones are a different color and difficult to use.
Also, using Waze inside Android Auto is cumbersome. Can Waze be separated out? I really don't like Android Auto or Apple Car Play. My phone and streaming services worked fine without the overhead. Now, EVERYTHING goes through Car Play or Android Auto - text messages, voice mails, streaming, etc. Just pull Waze OUT and let us run it separately from AA and CP.1 vote
