  3. Details when clicking a reported item

    Since iOS 17 I can’t click on the map to get details about a reported item. This was possible in iOS 16. I was hoping future updates would solve this but they never came. So now I report this here doing for that feature back.

  6. Vehicle type restricred highway alert

    PLEASE...When a route includes a restricted road, like the Merritt Parkway, pop up a flash screen that advises no trucks busses or trailers are permitted on the roadway and require acknowledgement. Illegal vehicles are being routed into these road because users either don't care or don't know how to set up their waze.

  8. Larger exit graphic on top right corner. The exit numbers on the map are too small. They need to be made larger

    On a previous version of Waze, the exit number icon/graphic was larger and easier to see on a mobile phone. It would be great for the exit number icon/graphic to be made larger.

  9. Change matching color pop-up window activation border--it's dangerous!!!

    When I want to dismiss pop-up windows while driving, the border to indicate they're activated matches the color of the window and is very hard to see. As a result, I have to focus my attention on the Waze screen and away from my driving while operating the navigation knob in my 2020 Mazda to make the window active for dismissal--or let the window remain up where it obsures my map view. PLEASE change color of this border to white, yellow or anything that doesn't match the window color so I can spot it in my peripheral vision and keep…

  11. Highway

    When selecting to use highways waze just shows routes maximizing this. Sometimes it would be good to use just a bit of highways and pay less. For instance in Portugal you can save some money by just entering a bit later on the way on the highway. This could be a customizable. When waze presents the route user could get a prompt to change were to enter/exit the highway. Currently its a on/off option only.

  12. Option to not automatically launch Waze when I activate Carplay

    I do not need Waze every time I drive. If I launch Apple Airplay to listen to my music or an audiobook, Waze automatically launches on my phone and drains my battery. I would like to have the option in settings to choose whether to automatically launch Waze or not. Some users may prefer to auto-launch, so having the option would be beneficial.

  13. Alternate routes color text

    On the alternative routes page, on an Android phone, reading the best route information is difficult because the text and green background are bright. I would like you to improve the contrast, maybe changing the text to black.

  14. Decouple map display from light sensor

    The current version of Android Waze always uses the information from the light sensor to display dark or light mode. My car doesn't have a light sensor (even though it is a 2023 model). Therefore, my map display is always dark, making it very hard to see in bright sunlight. Could you make it possible for users to select whether to use the information from the light sensor or not? Thank you!

  17. Pedágio - Opção de Ativar ao escolher a rota

    Olá, obrigado por seu trabalho. Minha sugestão é, ao escolher a rota, ter a opção de "Evitar Pedágio" visível, para poder mudar ou não.
    Assim, você fica sabendo se essa opção está ativada logo ao escolher a rota.
    Atualmente, temos que entrar em "Configurações" para mudar.
    Espero que implementem.
    Obrigado

  18. Necesita un buen aviso radar

    No entiendo, no tiene Waze los avisos de radar bien diseñados, solo avisa si vas a velocidad superior a la de la vía. Si vas acelerando o vas a adelantar a otro vehículo justo antes d un radar, no te avisa y a la altura del radar ya vas más rápido de lo permitido. Debería avisar siempre, o por lo menos se configurable y además indicar la velocidad límite del radar.
    Tal como está diseñado Waze, para evitar radares es pésimo, te distraes pues miras demasiado la pantalla para evitarlos y eso es malo para la conducción, es de lógica.…
