Keep the app from turning off navigation
If you have the app open in the background, or while the screen is off or locked, navigation can stop if you are stopped for too long. This is beyond frustrating. When I am riding my motorcycle, I listed to the navigation on my bluetooth system. I keep my phone screen locked in my pocket. However, if I am stopped in traffic or at a stop light too soon, then navigation will completely stop. I have to stop, unlock my phone, and then when I open waze, it asks if I want to resume navigation. DO NOT AUTO STOP NAVIGATION. EVER. If the user did not hit "STOP", or close the app, then they still want to be navigated!!!

It's 2023 and the app is still doing this. I'm riding my motorcycle with my phone in my pocket with Waze on. There are plenty of intersections where I'm at where the stop light can take up to 300 seconds, so for 5 minutes I'm sitting on the same spot and by the time the light turns green, Waze has already canceled navigation.
This is very frustrating especially when I'm going to a place that I'm not familiar with.
