Lane Guidance
While using Waze on highways lately, I have begun to think that having the ability to see what lane becomes the off ramp would be great, especially in complex city interchanges.
Portuguese: Estava usando o Waze em rodovias e comecei a pensar que seria ótimo ter a capacidade de ver qual pista pegar, especialmente em trevos complexos dentro das cidades.
Spanish: Últimamente me he dado cuenta que al utilizar waze en capitales se hace muy necesario que waze indique cual carril de una calle, avenida o autopista, llega a ser una rampa, especialmente en complejos intercambios.
Great news! The Lane Guidance feature is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

It showed up Aug 2020 - then after some updates it seems to be back without it again?

Lane guidance is only present in the app, not in android auto. Also Lane guidance should not take up one third of the visible map screen, size of the arrows and / or arrow background transparency should be an option. Current black background with gigantic size arrows is everything but nice / practical.

Add option to turn off lane assistance that was recentely added to Waze. On turns/cross junctions one arrow becomes few to show which lane to take.
Please make it configurable for people that prefer one large arrow. -

This needs adding ASAP for any changes on the route that involve taking a specific lane without this forces people to use other apps instead

My phone is a Samsung S10 and the lane assistance works fine with Waze. I get a black background with white arrows wich give the lane i need to take. Sorry for my Belgian accent :-)

That would be great. I would add a “zoom in” for roundabouts as the small icon with the number on it is unreadable if you don’t hace a perfect sight... Again, nothing wrong in imitating Tom Tom....

It would be perfect if you could add the lane guidance like the sygic showing which lane to drive by a small video like instructions.

Please, this is the only reason I have to use other GPS software at times.

This is a standard feature in many other GPS apps and is one of the main things that Waze doesn't yet support.

Any idea when?

Or show the number of highway lanes and highlight the ones that are suggested based on next moves (e.g. if left turn at light has two lanes, and next move would be right turn, highlight the rightmost turn lane)

Yes, cant believe this isnt part of it already since Waze is under google now. Probably like a redhead stepchild sorta thing?! Anyway I have to use Google when traveling outside the norm and Waze on my regular routes. Dumb.

How can we help Waze to bring this feature up to speed? We desperately need it on Waze. I still have to use google maps for navigation, while keeping Waze running in the background. :(

This is an essential feature while driving in cities. I am surprised that an app as popular as waze doesn't have this feature. Our cities are getting complex for driving, knowing the lane to be in would increase driver safety many fold.
How can we bring this essential feature to the Waze team's notice?

there is an app called "HereWeGo", the lane assistance is absolutely accurate. Have tried it in Singapore and Malaysia, have not encountered any traffic junctions without getting the wrong information on which lane is turning only, straight only or turning+straight going lane.
Too bad that app is not available in CarPlay, its other features are also not as good as Waze -

Do you all have any intentions on adding lane assist to Waze? What can we do to help assist and speed up this development? This is such a needed feature that can help both the old and the young navigate in complex cities and not have to cut people off and even lose their lives due to road rage. People use your app everyday and all we're asking is that you help save lives and prevent accidents by implementing lane changing so that folks can continue their safe driving. Please, please be mindful and help us to arrive alive at our destination by adding Lane Assist.
