PLEASE update the carplay app to report road closures.

It makes Waze useless as I have found when there is a detour to turn off Waze and use Maps.

+1 - Please update CarPlay to allow for reporting of road closures.

What umopapisdn said

As a Waze editor and frequent reporter of street closures, can we get the full reporting options as we would without using Car Play/AA? It's almost impossible to get users to clarify a general map error when there is a street closure.

It's been requested repeatedly in the past, let's make it happen. Car Play/AA is pretty common now.

Definitely useful my area has several major interchanges being reconstructed and the ramps available change every 2 or 3 weeks right now.

Carplay is very mainstream now and this feature should be added.

Ran into this odd limitation this week

I strongly support this proposal.

It would appear that it is Android Auto and Apple Carplay who for some reason will not allow the 'Road Blocked' feature to be used. If this is the case, then as a workaround, give us the option to either make a detour from that point of the planned route or give us the option to choose a particular road that we want to avoid (the blocked road). We don’t have to report it as being blocked. It’s just telling Waze, Android Auto or Apple CarPlay that we don’t want to use that particular road. I can't understand why, after almost 5 years since the original post by xavier, no one at Waze has been able to come up with a solution to this.

Bump

I support this ask! Even if it doesn't update the map immediately it would help for the directions to note that another driver (and add how many drivers if more than one) noted an issue with this route so we can make a choice to reroute or to continue if we don't trust what others are entering. Then when your team can confirm you can update the map.

No update? Really? I've been led to multiple closed roads now, I'm assuming because people can't report them. Given the massive amount of construction in my city, I'm going to have to switch to another Nav App until this is resolved.

We've been asking for this feature since 2018.

Is it a technical limitation? Something else?

I'm sick of trying to make excuses in URs when someone reports a Missing Road when what they really want to do is report a closure. The vast majority of your userbase are not coming here to make suggestions, they're deleting Waze and going to your competition.

Do you want your volunteer editors to be doing useful work on the map, or would you prefer we continue tilting at windmills and asking for clarification from people who will ultimately never respond to us?

@Ella if you're not going to add this feature, please explain why. is it a limitation with CarPlay/AA or something else?

as a map editor, i find myself making excuses for your lack of this feature at least once a week. i'm sick of answering this question in URs!

That this isn’t a feature already is sort of astonishing. Did the developers expect folks to pull over to the side of the road, disconnect Apple CarPlay or android auto, report a closure, and then re-initialize CarPlay or android auto and continue their drive? No developer there can say they would expect this unless they genuinely would do it themselves.

Please update CarPlay to allow for reporting of road closures

Please add this feature

Please add closure reporting to Carplay!

In the Car Play App not having the CLOSED ROAD icon under HAZARD is an issue.
Very strange that it exists in the WAZE App but isn't present when connected to the car and CARPLAY is envoked.

CLOSED ROAD - on Turn Left/ on Turn Right/ Going Forward.

I assume the Closed Road status goes away when Waze notes # users are now driving down a previously reported Closed Road?
