Activate "picture in picture" (PIP).

Activate "picture in picture" (PIP). With Gmaps you can have the map superimposed on another application

    In Google maps, this is a very useful feature, you can simultaneously watch the navigation and turn on some kind of application.
    And also thanks to this mode, there will be less lags, since now, when switching between applications, the vase may no longer adequately determine your location.

    I only use Google maps because of this feature would switch to waze permanently if waze had this

  • Jonathan Livni commented  ·   ·  Report

    Unfortunately I'm switching to Google Maps until this is ready

    Can you make Display over other Apps available on IOS ?

  • Gretchen Paden commented  ·   ·  Report

    A floating Waze map, so I can use other apps it while walking. I have to switch to Google Maps a lot in order to do that.

    I think you're being ironic. We asked for this a long time ago. I think the company that owns Android imposes some sanctions. Business are business.

    Allow the map to minimize to a small floating view. So that it can be used while other apps/windows that are open. I'd say similar to a certain competitors. Just remember not to copy copy. Those companies would love to own you. ***** them, ❤️ waze!

    Waze 100% at least needs the option to run in the background. Very important for motorcyclists who navigate via Bluetooth audio with their phone in their pocket.
    Not to mention changing music (apps), and overall battery saver to turn off screen.

    PLEASE ENABLE THIS!

    The only reason why I'm not using Waze. I can't understand why people upvote navigation voices by some random person and not a critical feature like this. It's plain dangerous not to be able to see the map at all times.

    I really don't like having to choose between Google maps with their picture in picture and you know constant ly available navigation or like the nice reporting abilities on Waze like ways is very much a superior app it's just the whole not having a picture really stinks

  • Nathan commented  ·   ·  Report

    Picture in picture mode. You mean overlaying a the speedo over other apps

  • Petr Hlavac commented  ·   ·  Report

    It might be useless on cell phones, but there are thousands of users running 3rd party Android radios in their cars. It would be great if there was a navigation widget or at least PIP option (similar to Google maps) which could be integrated into custom Android radio launchers. Is there any chance we'll see it in future?

  • Robert Deadwyler commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please add picture in picture mode that way when you minimize app you can still see the map in the corner of your map while you do other things on your phone and instead of having to open app everytime

  • WBGV Mountaineer commented  ·   ·  Report

    I absolutely love this App and would never use another. Wondering if there is an option or way to make it minimize like google maps does while looking at something else, then click on it to enlarge no normal size?

  • Pedro Viegas commented  ·   ·  Report

    Indeed, Waze looses to GMaps because of such simple and yet extremely user friendly options not available.
    Mini floating window is one of them, please do this
