Routes
When using carplay with Iphone: in oorder to see all the routes, one need to click on the arrow and then a window opens with the initial route already offered, and the request to click again on the screen to see all the routes. The second click on the screen is completely unnecessary because it is clear that if I click the first time to see routes I would like to see all the options (usually 3 ). Maybe you can check its cancellation. Thank you

Reroute traffic from Penelope Avenue in Middle Village Queens
Avoid directing cars onto Penelope Avenue in Middle Village, Queens from Metropolitan Ave and Juniper Vally Blvd. The latter two streets are much better suited for high traffic volume, particularly during rush hour. When drivers are directed to Penelope by Waze, it creates backup as the street is not designed to accommodate the same amount of two way traffic, and has also increased traffic related incidents as a result.

Showing lane signs even without navigation
Sometimes you drive without navigation and reach an intersection where some of the lanes go in different directions, and because of the road conditions the signs are hidden and it is impossible to understand which lane to choose.
It would be useful if the directions of travel in each lane were displayed on the screen, as there is during navigation but without highlighting any lane.3 votes -

About traffic information
We propose the use of Bing Maps traffic information in combination with Waze bots as an effective means of responding to natural disasters. This combination will improve disaster response by providing fast and accurate road closure information.
First, Bing Maps traffic information provides real-time traffic conditions across a wide geographic area. This can be used to quickly determine which areas are affected in the event of a disaster. However, for information on road closures and other detailed road conditions, community-based approaches such as Waze bots can be beneficial.
Waze bots provide instant information on traffic conditions and road closures by…

Improve contrast on the Navigation Screen
The top of the nav screen in the daytime is black with blue and white letters. There is not enough contrast to see the words when looking into the backlight of a windshield. Google maps uses white on green which is much easier to see. Please fix this.

Active vehicle on shoulder
I’d like to see a different color for active vehicles on shoulder, for when people are present or actively working their vehicle. Rather than a vehicle that’s been sitting there for days.

On Android the "report an issue" isn't available
I tried to report a freeway entrance closure, but the "tapping of arrows" wasn't working.. when i tried to do it.
After finding how to report the issue.. i found that the "report an issue" option wasn't an option in settings as described in the response to the Waze support email i sent.

Resolve Waze slowness issue while Spotify is on (Android Auto)
If Waze runs without Spotify there is no issue, but as soon as Spotify is used, Android Auto becomes very slow. If you use Maps for navigation, Spotify works fine. So there is a problem with Waze and Spotify.

Treasure Map
I would love some alternate designs for the map appearance, but most of all I could love an old-timey treasure map look. And maybe a way to customize the route design so instead of a purple line it could be a red dotted line, again like on a pirate's treasure map.

Non-Vehicle Car Icons
I would love some cute, simplistic car icons that aren't cars/vehicles:
- A little caterpillar wiggling across the map
- A little spider scuttling across the screen
- A sail boat / pirate ship the bobs like it's on water
- A beach ball bouncing down the roadI'm sure there could be other ideas but these were just the first I thought of that might work.

I was traveling with Waze and my car's odometer and fuel gauge stopped working, so I came up with a suggestion for Waze. If possible, it would be interesting to add a marker to the screen informing how many km have already been travelled, with the option of resetting the marker when the car is refueled, for example. Hope this helps!
