horizontal screen error
Hello, I usually have waze on the screen without setting the route, but in the latest versions if you use it in horizontal mode the search bar is not hidden, and it occupies a quarter of the screen, before with a double tap on the screen if it was hidden, please re-implement this option.
Greetings.

Minecraft Vehicle
Dear Waze,
My name is Eva Lucia Giralt and I’m almost 8 years old and live in Brooklyn NY. I’ve been riding in my dad’s car since I was a baby and we always use Waze. My favorite vehicle avatars so far are the meow mobile and the woof wagon.
I would really love it if you could make a Minecraft vehicle avatar; maybe even a dog and cat version. I ask because the 1.19 update just came out for Minecraft and this would be a great time to make a new avatar to go with this update.

paris
The residents of the Center of Paris have a specific authorization to drive through all the Center of Paris (boroughs 1 to 4). For example, the residents can drive through Rue de Rivoli.
Could you create an option on Waze to indicate that we have this specific authorization?2 votes -
Current speed yellow when approaching turn too fast
App displays speed colour to yellow on turns.
In Australia we have advice sign posts "yellow triangle" that suggest
a comfortable speed for a corner (on corners that are closer to hair-pin than straight).The route navigation current speed would show white (normal), yellow (over suggested speed) or Red (over legal speed limit)
Some possibilities:
- Waze servers auto assign "suggested speed" value based an approximation of centripetal force that considered angle between two segment "points" and ignores slope.
- Waze editor allows a road to have an assigned "suggested speed" based on road signage suggestions (which take into consideration…5 votes -
Ajouter un bouton retour sur les signalements
Il n'est pas possible de revenir à la navigation sur l'écran d'android auto lorsqu'on appuie sur le bouton pour signaler quelque chose sur la route. Il faut obligatoirement terminer le signalement pour revenir à la carte, même si on s'est trompé. Un bouton retour serait donc utile.

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.

Do not switch voice to local language when using Waze abroad
The fact that I travelled abroad and decided to use Waze does not mean that I understand the language.
If I set Waze to give me directions in a specific language, it should not change when i am moving to another country.If there is a problem in reading street names in foriegn languages it is better to move to "no street names" mode and still talk to me in a language i understand

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
