Increase visibility area in landscape mode.
While using waze on my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy Note 3), the device is on its side. I like to see the map in landscape mode. With the new update (version 4.0.0.2 installed) any warnings and the display of the names of streets COVERS a big part of the map. I suggest to enlarge the área of the map shown in landscape mode for smartphones at least.

It is 2025, and I upvote this. I enjoyed using Waze as my navigation tool, but landscape mode being unusable for NEARLY 10 YEARS is crazy.
l forward Werner's suggestion, especially on the sizes configuration. I compared the UI between Google Map and Waze, the main reason Google's is more usable is the size of the boxes.
Dear Waze team, please fixed this. Other than that, keep up the good work!

i would like to have a few things about the directions box configurable in the gui.
- on/off: choose to completely switch of display of the box
- position: choose position to be top left or more centered
- size: choose from eg 3 different sizes
- timing of display: choose distance from crossing when display is maximized, otherwise display summary line only.
