Toll
I was using Waze in CarPlay today taking a ride on the PA turnpike. It showed that the toll rates were $22.00. This is the accurate toll price if I was paying cash or using toll by plate where they take a picture of my license plate. But people who have an ezpass pay significantly less than that rate, sometimes 50% less. Could you add an option in the Waze account to show the ezpass toll rate vs the cash rate toll rate? Perhaps a toggle button that you have an expand transmitter.

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.

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.

Improve speedometer accuracy
Not sure if this is happening on android. I can check. On my iOS I noticed that the speedometer is 4-5 miles slower than my car speedometer. So I set alert at the speed limit it means I’m already going 5 miles over the limit.
This odd really a bug. I could not find a way to report it as a bug

Could you make both actual speed limit and current speed icon both large as its tricky to see at a glance

speedometer
Speedometer can be pinned to my phones entire display (during carplay). That way it’s easier to read at a glance. Perhaps what displays on your phone screen when connected to carplay could be fully customisable?

Close Waze app when CarPlay terminates
This is a simple idea that would have a profound beneficial effect. My phone gets hot in my pocket because I get out of my car and forget that Waze is still running. It gets hot unless I close that app manually after removing it from my car. Just give us an option to close the app upon disconnection from CarPlay. thx

Add a Compass to Waze CarPlay Screen
How about a simple compass on the Carplay screen? Google Maps has it. Apple Maps has it. Just a little N,S,E or W in the corner. So basic, and yet currently Waze won't show what direction you are facing. On the iPhone display you at least get a little circle with a red line pointing North, but on Carplay you get nothing. PLEASE ADD A COMPASS TO CARPLAY!

Voice Reports for CarPlay iOS/Android
As the title reads, this is a highly demanded feature for the public and users of Waze. While driving and seeing a hazard on the road and trying to tap and report the hazard on the infotainment is dangerous!
Please add voice reports support to CarPlay/Android Auto so we could just say using Siri or Google to report any hazards such as example, "Report Police", "Report Left Lane Blocked", etc!

Sleep the screen
Carplay makes my phone overheat on carplay. Its done this on many phones (Iphones) over the years and on long motorway journeys go back to the home screen and the issue goes away and the phone cools down. Its happened on multiple head units too (android). A sleep button for the map display might help this.

Unusable in CarPlay in iOS 18 Beta 4 across multiple vehicles
The app constantly crashes during routine guidance, is unresponsive to taps, runs slowly, is jerky, doesn’t keep up with the current location, doesn’t display speed, and routinely stops displaying a map. I have tried multiple vehicles with the same results. It has been bad across all iOS 18 builds but is especially bad on beta 4.

Add point of interest POI for future
Basically i was driving in a new city and i passed by a building that looked interesting that had a nice looking restaurant, i couldn’t read the name of the restaurant because i was blocked by a bus, this is when i wished i had an option to just add a POI through Carplay by the (what do you see) menu, and when i get home the app would remind me that i added a POI so i could search it up and come back to it later.
When you pass by a place you find interesting and would want…

Carplay - ability to pause or stop direction notifications
Waze repeatedly displays notifications when the Carplay display is set to another app. The way they continually pop up interferes with operation of anything else in the Carplay UI
Ex.: I'm sitting at a light where Waze indicates a left turn. While I wait on the light I go to Spotify to queue up a different album. While doing this Waze will repeatedly interrupt by displaying "left turn 0 feet" or similar notifications with no way to stop them.
This behavior is really obnoxious and there should either be a way to permanently stop any particular notification or cap how…

Less clicks for Carplay reports
It takes three clicks in Carplay to make a report. However, with FlitsMeister, you only need two clicks for the most common warnings. Making a report takes too long now, and since you're driving, you can't look at your screen for an extended period.
