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.

I just switched from the Galaxy to an iPhone and I am unable to read the text and Waze it’s way too small I’m not sure how to make it bigger

The navigation text needs to be adjustable (above the map). With bigger iPhone screens, the text looks too small but it's not adjustable even with native iOS text size set to extra large.
For older folks (or anyone with not-so-perfect vision), this is a big blocker and DANGEROUS as they may need to take their eyes off the road longer while trying to read the tiny text.
PLEASE allow adjustable text. There needs to be more accessibility settings in the app.

The font size is too small and makes it dangerous when driving. How can the font be enlarged

It is unsafe for many drivers to use Waze due to the small font size for street names. Why is this not adjustable? It seems that should be a standard feature by now. Incorporate this asap, PLEASE!

Even zooming in at home I can't read the pale grey motorway junction numbers and many road labels. This badly needs to be addressed.

At this moment it is difficult to find big cities on the map to orient yourself.
With the text size of the city name in relation to the city size the readability of the map would improve a lot.

it is almost impossible to see the font in Waze on my iPhone. I live in Florida and I 4 changes almost weekly. I may have to stop using Waze because it is becoming a liability.

For iPhone even setting the text size to larger doesn't work. It's mostly impossible to see the names of the upcoming cross streets. This would be a useful option.

Why hasn’t Waze provided this ability? The street names are way too small by default and some of us like to know what is on and around the route, not just blindly follow the directions.

I can't see the speed limit. Like WTAF, no one has eyes that good. Need to be a lot larger like Apple CarPlay. Makes switching to Android feel like a mistake... Please change or make an option for those with sight issues. Supposed to make driving safer.

This is the number 1 fix IMHO. Perhaps have 3 size options.
While addressing the size we should reconsider the Red on Black when overspeed as it is hard to read.
A buffer limit either in units of speed or percentage before alarm would be great, ie 100kph zone but alarm doesn't kick in until 105kph

I agree. The dash already has the speed the vehicle is going. Why would that number be larger than the more important piece of information... the speed limit. Just have the speed limit and surround the limit in red if the car is going over.

So frustrated!! Everything Waze should be larger text... It seems to be ok on Android, but so tiny on iPhone... Very dangerous indeed!!!

Agreed. Especially when the "Speedometer" kicks in and makes the speed limit even smaller. I can no longer read the speed limit when that happens (and I am using it via AA on a large dash screen). I have a speedometer in my car, so that adds insult to injury. ;-) Making the info I want unreadable because of info I don't need. ;-)

I'm sure I'm not the only that struggles reading the text on the fuel prices screen. Currently the 4 fuel categories are spread across the screen in a single line with acres of blank space below them. It would be much better if the prices were in a 2x2 matrix, which would allow the font to be twice the size.

Font size on map is definatly should be resizable.
Its impossible to see street names.
I tryed to increaze and scale fonts on android general settings and that affecting evrything except waze.
I dont think this is additionsl feature, font size is a basics of serious products like waze
