Possibility to add road closure on CarPlay
Possibility to mark road closed on apple carplay: ofen in Montreal, Canada we have lots of road closure, not reported on waze, causing wrong direction.
Great thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

I would love to have this. I experienced a 3 day road closure and there wasn’t an easy way to do it through car play.

It appears that i am unable to vote for this requested enhancement. Is it because the status has been set to NOT RIGHT NOW? Regardless, please enable reporting of road closures when using CarPlay.
I've seen it said that it is Apple blocking the implementation of this feature. However, Apple support is telling me that Waze should support all reporting features. Which is it, an issue with Apple or this still not being a high enough priority for Waze?

This problem with Carplay has been going on waaaaaaze too long. When we're driving, we need to be able to quickly & easily hit the buttons we've grown to expect to be there in the places we expect them to be after all these years. Can you please report this up the chain that it needs to be fixed? The report button needs "road closure" added to Carplay. Unsafe for me to be digging for and unplugging the phone just to find this button on the phone itself instead of on the heads up screen where it should be.

The only safe way to do this is via CarPlay

I can’t understand why the map try’s to have me cut through a subdivision it is not a closed road

Please add this feature! I drove an extra hour because it kept rerouting me to the same exit 5 different ways!

I use waze a lot (400.000 points) and started using CarPlay now. I was super surprised that there is a feature gap between both use cases.
I just rehistered an account here to vote for this, as the missing functionality is a real deal breaker for me - I lost in the last week twice 20 min because of this and had to use a different Navigation app.
Super frustrating when waze still wants to route you back to the closed road. -

Yeah this needs an option since I don't use my phone while driving, but i report stuff using carplay. Why isn't this an option now??? Leads to bad reports and confusion since I have to choose something other than what it really is.

Really need this on CarPlay. Not going to pick up my phone while driving. Flooding close many roads recently and most were not noted as closed on Waze.

We have untold road closures in my area at the moment and since getting my new car, I can't report them making the Waze/Carplay setup practically unusable 😟

I thought the app was broken because I remember this was an option at one point. Come to find out since I switched to CarPlay I can’t do it from my car display. There are often ramps closed around here that are never reported because we can’t do it while driving in CarPlay.

Also that the closures stay on the map!! I pass the same closure daily and it’s always taken off.

Please add this feature to CarPlay. It’s ridiculous and dangerous that I can’t report a road closure from CarPlay. Without the ability to report the closure, I can’t get a reroute, which means I have to navigate without Waze or pull out my phone to fix the route or use Google maps. There is no reason for it to be this difficult to report a closure!

@ella shouldn't this be reviewed now ?
