Allow users to use the speech recognition from Waze rather than using Google Assistant
The problem is Google switched to using Google Assistant which doesn't not work with city names in other countries because somehow someone thought it would be a good idea to do that when Google Assistant only knows 10 languages, most of them being dialects of German, French, or Spanish.
The "idea" is to allow the user to disable Google Assistant and use Waze Speech Recognition (which works quite fine).
This is an Android Auto thing but Google ignores it.

Preview next turn on map
Please allow me to view my next turn on the map.
I can view all future turns by tapping the next turn at the top of navigation screen, then tapping any turn to preview it. But the NEXT turn does not behave this way. Instead, it acts as a toggle to view all upcoming turns or not.
How can I see my next turn on the map?

Android Auto New issue
Prior to yesterday, the Waze App for Android would automatically move to the background & allow Android Auto take over when launched. Used in conjunction with any Android app requesting directions this would automatically return to the requesting app to the foreground so as not to require user intervention. As of last night the Waze android app (just a grey screen with a reminder that android auto is running) remains foreground and this requires removing hands from the steering wheel to manually return the requesting app to the foreground. Please advise. Thanks.

Make it easy to report application problems
When application updates come out and something is now broken, their is no easy way to report application errors, or application problems. Walking through the help center found "Feedback and Suggestions", but you only ask for suggestions, not feedback.
Found a link to Facebook chat, but this is only a one-way conversation. Seems most people go to the application page and leave bad application reviews and a response may or may not be provided.1 vote -
Integrate HiBy Music App
Hi, would it be possible to add in a future update of waze the HiBy Music app as it is already the case with many other apps? 🙏🏼 I use HiBy music to control my HiRes music player (Hidisz ap80 Pro-X) and I maybe not the only one!
Thank you. 👍🏼1 vote -
Old Pine Road. Ford, VA
Old Pine Road, Ford, VA is not off of Wells Road, Ford, VA. The map is wrong. When they turn off of Wells Road, they go through my parents' farm which is a private driveway. We have a sign posted stating the GPS is wrong but delivery vehicles and others are still going through our land and find out they cannot get through. Please correct it on you map. The only way they can go through is from Baltimore Road, Ford, VA.

Support timed Pedestrian and Cycle Zones
In the UK we have new timed pedestrian and cycle zones with cameras that are drivable only at certain times. These are typically near schools and mean the road is no longer usable. Data from this could be collected from Google Street-view for where the zones are and what times they operate to prevent Waze routing you through them when the pedestrian and cycle zone is in operation.

Navigation option to avoid Drawbridges
Would like a Navigation option to avoid Drawbridges. All Drawbridge roadway portions in my section of the country are grided metal and you can see straight through them to the water. It's a terrifying phobia for me. I would happily take a longer route when at all possible to avoid a Drawbridge.

Fix IOS 16 app
Just updated my iPhone 12 Mini to IOS 16. Unfortunately, the app’s display is extremely disproportional to the screen size & shape, so much that it affects basic user functions. Apple/Waze app developers should look into this ASAP.
