Report road closures using carplay
Allow us to report road closures when using carplay. I can see this was suggested back in 2019 but still hasn't been actioned. Not only is this helpful in making other drivers aware, it also means i can be given an alternative route when faced with a closure. Currently, if i find a road closure waze becomes unusable as it repeatedly tries to re-route me back to the closed road.

Updates required - CarPlay
There is no option for the following on Apple CarPlay which will be very beneficial:
-Option to report road closed due to road works
-Option to report unmarked police speed cameraI know from the app directly on phone or android you can but from apple CarPlay (car screen) these options are not available.

CarPlay reporting button
The buttons to report “Still There” and “Not There” are stacked vertically in CarPlay, this leads to accidentally pressing the wrong option a significant number of times due to a badly timed bump. If the buttons were next to each other this wouldn’t be an issue.

Modify Waze CarPlay
Waze in CarPlay does not correctly visualize the routes to choose them, it does not correctly show the distance, nor does it show the costs of tolls or highways, that information should be available on the CarPlay screen, since according to current laws you cannot take your cell phone while driving.

Driving directions on virtual cockpit
Hey Wazers, I have found out, that when you use Apple Maps app through CarPlay, it is able to transfer information about next driving direction (for example "in 100m turn right" and an arrow) to the control unit of my car and it then shows it to me on my virtual cockpit. Since anothe iOS app can do this, I hope others should be able to, arent they? It will be really good to implement this...

Update the car play / android auto app of Waze
Waze should be updated for car play user and android auto. We do not have full functionalities like the iOS or android mobile app. For example we can only report police, not hides ones or in the opposite side. Same for errors in the map, we can’t add a commentary if we use car play for example. All iOS and android fonctionnalités should be added to car play and android auto to have a 100% good,experience.

Show turn by turn navigation on the main car dashboard using carplay
Google maps and Apple Maps have full integration with CarPlay showing turn by turn navigation on the drivers dashboard. Can Waze replicate that ? All of the them have this working with CarPlay and android auto, except for Waze…

Close Waze app when CarPlay terminates
This is a simple idea that would have a profound beneficial effect. My phone gets hot in my pocket because I get out of my car and forget that Waze is still running. It gets hot unless I close that app manually after removing it from my car. Just give us an option to close the app upon disconnection from CarPlay. thx

Report Road Closure on Apple Car play
The amount of times I get stuck because of a road closure and it will not suggest a new route because I can’t report it! I end up driving miles away for it to update for a new route! Please fix this!!! Sick of getting stuck!

Change horizontal confirmation buttons to vertical YES or NO
As a CarPlay user, I find it difficult to accurately hit the horizontal button confirming if it's "Still there". I propose making the buttons a vertical side by side "Yes" and "No" with the question posed above it "Still there?"

Trajectory control on CarPlay
It would be nice to have a progress bar for trajectory control on CarPlay, just like it is on the iOS app. The big popup with the close button, as it is now, does not make sense at all. Even better would be if you could see your average speed during the trajectory.

Apple CarPlay shortcut for reporting a hazard
To report a hazard (ie pothole) requires 4 clicks. Would be great if there was a few one click shortcuts to report the most common hazards such as a pothole, police, and vehicle stopped on side of road. This would be much safer than fumbling around to report a pothole while driving.

Make speed limit larger on apple carplay
I have read the responses to this issue. It seems to be a bot responding as:
Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.
That is NOT the issue. Just remove the speedometer and make the speed limit LARGER. Like it appears on Google Maps, which owns Waze.

Allow alerts without a route in CarPlay
Allow alerts such as potholes, accidents, hazards, etc. in CarPlay the same way it works on the smartphone app version where it works without having to add a route.

Street name covering nav line
When I plug my iPhone 11 into the car play in my car and use the app, it can be frustrating that when I come to a turning, the street name often covers the route (the blue line) so I can't see the turning easily. I suggest fixing it so the street names never sit over the blue navigation line. Thanks.

Display destination on screen during navigation
Lately, I have repeatedly run into situations where, after driving for 1-2 hours, I have doubts whether I have selected the right destination. To be able to check this, I have to interrupt the navigation. This usually causes distractions while driving.
My suggestion is to introduce a display of the current destination above the estimated travel time field. This feature would be especially beneficial when using the Apple CarPlay integration. It would help users like me to always keep the desired destination in view, thus eliminating the dangerous interruptions during the drive.13 votes
