Waze doesn’t work with Ford CarPlay
I removed Waze from my iPhone XS because it prevents the car’s audio volume from working properly when connected through USB CarPlay. Too bad because I otherwise like the app but that behavior is not acceptable. So I won’t use it anymore.

Map doesn't load properly on iOS 13.3 with CarPlay
With Waze for iPhone and CarPlay running iOS 13.3, Waze fails to load the map correctly. Either the map appears blank, or extremely zoomed in and low resolution (because it's zoomed in much more than it's intended to be). I have to use my phone to force quite Waze one or two times before I can get the map to appear correctly. This needs to be fixed, because if I was caught touching my phone in the car while closing the Waze app, I would be given a big ticket for using my phone in the car.

Detours
WAZE is screwing up on a lot of things that were reliable before. the detour function is one of them and it no longer works the way it did. When you come to a detour you should be able to click on any of the arrows in all directions as you may have had to turn. It now serves up one arrow based on where your car is headed so people aren’t marking new detours because they can’t anymore.
WAZE had a lot of features that are still there but no longer as functional or robust as they used to…4 votesThanks for reaching out.

improve voice recognition
I assumed that Waze was using similar voice recognition engine to Google. But I have the worst time getting Waze to recognize my voice. It's not me nor my phone. I can say to Waze "Ok Waze report police ahead" and nine times out of ten it'll say "sorry I didn't recognize that". If I hit the home button (to bring up home screen and have Google Assistant take over) I can say Ok Google take a note report police ahead" and it'll correctly create a note "report police ahead"
I assume that Waze's voice recognition would be better than…

Please fix the CarPlay issues,
Please fix the CarPlay issues. Directional information covers the speed limit, move the speed limit to the top left? Speed camera notifications cover too much screen, make these transparent? Show the average speed camera distance like on the mobile version of the app. After turning a corner the map takes too long to realise you’ve turned meaning you scan easily miss your next turn if it’s close after.

Cant use Google Assistant when on Waze
Am a Pixel 2 user. I realized, that while driving around with Waze, being enabled, i am unable to use Google Assistant. When i contacted Google support team, they advised me to reach out to Waze, since i am told this is an App related issues.
In my opinion the ability to use Google assistant is very critical when we are on HIghways, since, there could be any critical reason you may want to communicate to the Assistant to read a text or send a message to a person about any critical update while enroute to home or office. I…

There is a major bug in the latest version of Waze. The arrow will not centre anyone when in landscape mode. Please fix ASAP.
Major bug in the latest version of Waze. The arrow refuses to center correctly and always cuts half of the map off from the right side. This issue makes the app practically unusable so until it is fixed I’ll need to go back to my trusted TomTom app.

I can no longer report a speed limit issue
I used to be able to tap the speed limit icon and it would allow me to report errors in the speed limit. Now, it doesn't. This has happened since 6/30/17 I believe or within a few days thereof.

App stays on "searching networks" even after reception resumes
We need a "Refresh connection" button when searching networks is happening.
I was driving on a mountain road where reception was poor so waze would lose connection often, but even after I got to the next town with full bars it would say in red "searching networks" and wouldnt connect. I restart the app to establish connection.

Remove our tiny street from Waze. Not enough room for 2 cars to pass. (Lake View Avenue, 90039)
We live on a tiny street in Silverlake, Los Angeles that is technically 2 way, but only fits one car. Waze has increasingly been sending inexperienced drivers here which creates havoc because there are no shoulders or driveways to pull into (no sidewalks either).
Thanks!
Please remove Lake View Avenue, 90039. Cross streets are Silver Ridge and India St.
Thank you!

Have Waze check the hours of operation to ensure you will arrive while destination is open.
I went to Lowes on Sunday, only to find out that the closest store to me was closed on Sundays (Blue Laws). There were 2 other Lowes stores that were close by that were open.
Suggestion: When entering a destination that has the hours of operation completed, have Waze tell driver that the location is closed, or that it will be closed at ETA. Driver can then override the message and still go to destination, or pick a new destination of same type or name. Of course, this would only work for locations that have hours of operation.
