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 must agree with this comment as I believe that attempting to read a message on my Ipad 4 screen mounted on the dash could lead to serious distraction resulting in a potential accident. Text should be legible clearly from a distance of 1 meter or so. Either have a zoom feature when tapping with finger on the text or offer various text sizes as an option.

note that android "accessibility" enables pinch-zoom (very handy) ... or consider getting "driving" glasses (bifocal or multifocal glasses designed to improve instrument reading)

Waze great idea, but it is not safe for the driver to use in fast or busy traffic.
Driver cannot read the small print and recognize features on Galaxy s7 phone even with the device fixed as close as possible on the dashboard or wind sheild.
Unsafe. ...
Needs human engineering by a perception psychologist to design the screens.
Please advise
Thanks

Set all information about time, km, and all written regarding traffic, warning, accident and so on, with bigger letters and icons dimension to be seen easely while driving. Or let user set their own letter configuration. (I use 10" tablet android with waze.)

An option in settings is needed to adjust font and speedometer sizes like small, normal, large, X large. I have the most trouble seeing the small speedometer.

Please increase the size of the text for kilometers so it is as big as the size of text for the time of arrival. The time of the duration of the trip is not as important to me and it could be eliminated if there is no space. The size of the text of the kilometers and the time of duration are too small to see without reading glasses (which anyone over 50 years old cannot use when they are driving)!! Thank you.

Also..please bold print for all print and not light colors. Hard to read with sunlight. Address is in bold...city is light color font...same street in two cities and often hit the wrong one. Thank you.

If Waze would implement MirrorLink standards they would also fix this ... more info at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kzeE7MmHns ... it's a video on mirrorlink.

Since you updated the looks of the app recently the font size has become to small. Also the contrast - it is grey on grey at lot of the text. It is dangerous when driving to have that low readability. I have 20/20 vision, so that is not the issue and using an iPhone 6 Plus. The device is usually used at twice the distance compared to holding it in your hand when navigating in a car.

Sometimes it would be handy to be make the map bigger so I can see the street names which are also hidden

I can't read the phone from more than a foot away. Please give us option to increase font size.

I would recommend making the whole popup window into two buttons - Left side for "not there" and right side for "there". Each side could be highlighted separately to indicate the two halves. I find that I spend a lot of time trying to hit one of the tiny existing buttons while driving.

I fully agree. I am 78 and need larger fonts to read.

Font size for directions is so small that it requires the driver to take eyes off the road for too long. This makes it unsafe for use while driving. Display should be similar to the one used by its sister Google maps which is much more user friendly.

+1 Please increase font size for directions and street names.
Also, the speed information is behind another icon on the screen and impossible to read. 7 inch tablet Lenovo. Thank you.
