CarPlay needs work
Feedback: Waze CarPlay Functionality
I really love Waze and want to make it my primary navigation app, but a few CarPlay interface issues are holding it back for me:
Map panning during navigation
Currently, panning the map requires first tapping a small "move" button. Drivers should be able to pan the map directly while turn-by-turn directions are active, without an extra activation step.Ending navigation
The "Stop" button is too small, lacks visual prominence, and is positioned on the far side of the screen from the driver. This makes it harder and more distracting to end a route while driving.…

Start voice guidance from a selected point on the route
Many users already know the first part of their journey and only need guidance for the last section. It would be very useful to allow users to choose a point along the route where voice guidance should begin automatically.
Waze would still calculate the full route, monitor traffic and reroute if necessary, but it would remain silent until the selected point is reached.
This would be especially helpful for motorcycle riders, commuters and frequent drivers, improving both convenience and safety by avoiding the need to interact with the phone during the ride.

Option to create routes that avoid zero electronic toll zones (ZBE) anywhere in Europe.
While it's possible to avoid toll roads, it would be beneficial to include a similar option to avoid electronic tolls in Europe for vehicles without a sticker. Furthermore, in 2027, the use of the B sticker will be restricted in certain areas of Europe. I suggest this option because it could benefit 20 million vehicles in Spain that either don't have a sticker or only have a B sticker, whose circulation will soon be restricted. I urge you to consider implementing this feature.

Display required average speed on iPhone
Please add the ability to display the required average speed while driving through average speed camera zones on the iPhone navigation screen.
This feature is already available in Apple CarPlay, but not when using Waze directly on the iPhone.
For users without CarPlay, this would be extremely helpful. It allows drivers to stay within the legal average speed limit without having to calculate it manually, improving both safety and convenience.
Bringing this feature to the iPhone app would also make the navigation experience consistent across platforms.

lo malo es que no podes editar con mas libertad los desde y los hasta como en google maps. Es una skill clave. y deberian resaltar la barra
lo malo es que no podes editar con mas libertad los desde y los hasta como en google maps. Es una skill clave. y deberian resaltar la barra superior de los carriles, mas cuando hay muchas opciones como en autopistas donde el auto en el mapa se superpone mucho en que camino tomar y no confunde. podrian hacer zoom en ese momento para saber bien que camino tomar, y la distancia tiene un delay importante, otro punto de dolor muy grande de la aplicación.

Can't touch the map to set a destination while connected to android auto
I want to touch the map to set a destination while connected to android auto, but I can't. I can touch the map to set a destination fine while only on the Waze android app, but when I'm connected to android auto, there isn't even a map on my phone to tap a destination on. And if I try to tap the map on my head unit to set a destination, nothing happens. Holding my finger down on the map doesn't do anything either. This means I can't save a new non-addressed location while connected to android auto. Seems like…

Voice commands to navigate to saved places not working
I have some saved places, like "parent's house" for example. To try to navigate to it I will press the microphone button and say "parent's house" or "navigate to parent's house", but it will set my route to a destination completely different hundreds of miles away. This only happens while connected to android auto. It works fine if I'm only using the Waze android app. Any ideas on how to fix this? Am I the only person with the issue? This is a main basic functionality and I can't use Waze without it.

Under "Where to?", show all "Saved places" at once instead of having to scroll horizontally.
I don't like horizontally scrolling to the right to get to all my saved places. It looks sloppy and feels weird especially when there is a vertical list of places below it. It is slower to find your places too. I would like it if these saved places buttons/shortcuts (home, work, others and more) were all shown at once without having to scroll horizontally. The buttons/shortcuts that don't fit all on one line would simply be moved under the first line. Then you have 2 or 3 lines or these buttons/shortcuts instead of having to scroll horizontally to look for…

Restarting Waze while connected to android auto causes light or dark mode to be wrong
If I close and reopen Waze while it is connected to android auto, Waze will open in whichever light or dark mode that my phone is set to. I have my phone set on dark mode so this causes Waze to open in dark mode if I restart it while connected to android auto. However I want it to always open in the mode that matches my car's headlights. When I first start Waze with android auto it does match my car's headlights, but not when I restart it. Is there any way to change this behavior or maybe someone…

Optional Highway Traffic Jam Voice Alert
Optional Highway Traffic Jam Voice Alert
Waze already detects traffic speed in real time. Please add an optional voice warning such as:
"Heavy traffic ahead. Reduce your speed."
Trigger the alert when the average speed drops abruptly (for example, from 100 km/h to below 30 km/h within a short distance).
This would improve safety on highways by giving drivers more time to brake smoothly and reducing rear-end collisions. The feature should be optional in Settings.

Removal of speed camera warnings
Speed camera warnings are also used by drivers that normally exceed speed limits, which warnings provide a tool to comfortably exceed speed limits, unsafe driving. Therefore speed camera warnings can be seen as intrinsic unsafe.

Dynamic Color Coding for Public Transport / Bus Lanes based on Time Restrictions
In many countries , governments are creating dedicated public transport lanes (Bus Lanes). Many of these lanes have specific operating hours, meaning they are completely open to regular private cars during off-peak hours (like nights, weekends, or specific mid-day hours).However, drivers often avoid using these lanes even when it is perfectly legal to do so. This happens out of fear of getting a heavy traffic fine, or simply because they cannot read the complex roadside signs in time while driving fast. This leads to a massive waste of road infrastructure: an entirely empty lane next to a heavily congested highway.My…

Add stop - total trip time
When adding a stop, it would be great to see the total trip time. Not just the time to the first stop.

KITT as a voice (Knight Rider)
I feel like KITT would be a perfect addition as a voice and vehicle. He already guides Michael, so why not allow him to join the ride and guide us? William Daniels if possible for authenticity.

CLEAN UP THE MAIN SCREEN
This is a Complaint, not an "idea." You HAD a perfectly good method of choosing your displayed Vehicle type in Preferences. ONCE and ONLY ONCE.
Whose "brilliant" idea was it to load down the main screen by adding a "Car or Motorcycle" choice EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU CHOOSE A ROUTE?
Is this some pathetic attempt at "Social Engineering" by "suggesting" that we should all ride two-wheelers because they are more fuel-efficient?
I am 64 Years' old. I don't have the desire, or the balance, to switch to a Motorcycle for my 40-mile-each-way-daily-commute. ...And if I Did, I wouldn't be bouncing…2 votes
