Ability to increase font size.
Those of us who see distance fine but need reading glasses could use the abolity to increase street name and POI size. It's one if the reasons why I don't use Waze as often as I'd like to.
Many thanks
Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

It doesn't fit your roadmap? However your users are finding waze difficult to use with aging eyes or those who need glasses? Why doesn't function and safety fit your road map?? I can't believe you can be so 'short sighted' to not want to provide a product that is safer and easier to use? I guess that's why I'm using google maps and Amigo more these days.

It is unsafe to lean over to see road speed limits. One should only have to peek.

Regarding the visibility of speed limits and speed warnings in the app. As someone who is nearsighted, I often struggle to read these important alerts while driving, especially without my reading glasses which one cannot wear while driving.
I recommend adding an option to adjust the font size for speed limits and warnings. This could include options for small, medium, and large formats, allowing users to select a size that works best for their vision.
Enhancing readability would greatly improve the driving experience for those of us with visual and/or hearing impairments. Thank you for considering this feature!

"Not on our roadmap"?????? This should be a federally mandated regulation. You are putting out an arguably dangerous product that when used with Android Auto has probably led to traffic accidents simply because the font sizes you use are too small for MANY people to see. The ability to change font sizes is a VERY SIMPLE option to code into your app, I know this, because I write code!

When using Android Auto, the street names are almost illegible and arguably dangerous to look at the screen under these conditions. Please code in an option to increase street name font sizes. As a programmer, I can tell you that this change is VERY VERY simple to make and implement. How is this still an issue?? Thank you!

Google will be giving away free gene therapy to repair aging eyes instead?

Thank you for your consideration re: the ability to increase font size. Waze no longer fits on MY road map as I need to be able to read street names, so WE are switching to Google Maps, which has always worked perfectly in my Mazda. But I'll consider switching US back to Waze if you update your product in the future.

I am so upset. My husband just dropped over $50K on a Jeep with a larger screen and now I can't read the street names in Waze unless I put on reading glasses! - not happening when I'm trying to drive. My husband is Iphone and Waze. From now on, it's my Mazda, my Android, and Google Maps. Jeep and Waze need to enable us to change font size if you want to maintain your customer base.

I use your app a lot of time as a passenger but when I use it as a driver I find myself not being able to press the choice buttons.... "Not there" and "Still there" The buttons seem to be on the small side. Could a setting be added in the settings for LARGE buttons? Maybe buttons the size of a postage stamp.... as tall as they are wide now. It would really help us people with big hands.
Thank You
John

Having the ability to increase the font size is CRITICAL, and it becomes a safety hazard for not doing so. Suggestions date back as far as 2013, and Waze is still ignoring this important request. Even having just a few preset options would be helpful. I am going to have to go back to Google Maps, as I'm sure many others are doing or have done.

Why not to implement a way do adjust the fontsize? Very small to read even in a 10" multimedia device.
Street names and speed are unreadable while driving. -

Seeing the option in driving mode in Waze regarding it's tiny font is not possible. Is there a y chance to add font size in it's option.

That’s not very smart. Essentially tough luck if you’re over 50 yrs. Kind of arrogant actually. Users should be able to change the font.

I tried out Waze instead of my usual Mazda navigation primarily for red/speed camera notifications. While my distance vision is decent my reading one not so much thus the street names and icons are way to small. There needs to be an option to increase fonts and icons.

Hello, Is it possible to increase the font for street names? I am using Android Auto. I have small font in my car 10.25 inches screen. I would like to have a bigger font. Thanks Anton
