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 was driving the other day when I had a road closure. I went to report it on the map via Apple Car Play, but I didn’t have all of the options available to me that I needed to make the report and had to disconnect my phone from the car and try to futz with that while driving (dangerous). Please give us the same reporting tools for Apple car play as we have just on the regular version of the app. Also would be nicer to have an easier way to report road closures, as it’s pretty buried/hard to find in a pinch. Thanks!

If you're having issues with a specific app on CarPlay, you might consider the following steps:
App Troubleshooting:
Check if the app in question has any reported issues or updates. Visit the app's page on the App Store or the app developer's website for information and troubleshooting guides.
CarPlay Settings:On your iPhone, go to "Settings" and select "General."
Tap on "CarPlay" and choose your car.
From the CarPlay settings, you can rearrange or hide app icons, but detailed app reports may not be available in this interface.
App Feedback:If the app has a support or feedback option within its settings, you might find a way to report issues or provide feedback. Check the app's settings on your iPhone when it's not connected to CarPlay.
iPhone Feedback:You can provide feedback about CarPlay directly to Apple. Go to "Settings" on your iPhone, tap on "General," and then select "Feedback." Here, you can submit feedback about CarPlay.
Check for Updates:Ensure that your iPhone, CarPlay-compatible head unit, and the apps in question are all running the latest software versions. Updates can often address bugs and improve compatibility.
App Developer Support:Reach out to the support channels provided by the app developer. Many apps have customer support through their websites or direct contact options.
Apple Support:If the issue is related to CarPlay itself, you can contact Apple Support for assistance. They may be able to provide guidance on common issues and troubleshooting steps.

Why can’t the same report options be on CarPlay.
For example if a road is closed you can only report it if you’re on your phone and on the app. I drive mainly by myself and so if a road was shut I wouldn’t be able to report. Or do other certain reports that you can on the app but not on the CarPlay.

Since while driving and on CarPlay, we are limited in how we can share partial or complete road closures, this feature will absolutely help.

Please add this feature! I just had to report a road closure because I didn’t have this on my CarPlay, therefore leading to a wrongful report of issue and waste of volunteer editors’ time.

Critical feature, as it leads to distracted driving without it and is not giving back to the community when you do not report it.

Upvoting pretty much all the comments- it's distracting to use the Waze app to get rerouted instead. Road closures have become more and more frequent and I end up switching maps- not the experience I desire, hence an update would be helpful!

This is insane it hasn’t been implemented in the 4 years since this suggestion!!

Need this in CarPlay for crying out loud. It's a huge inconvenience at best, and a safety issue at worst. How can you expect people to stop, unplug, and report a Closure, re-plug...all while they are driving? "Map Issue" is the only option available, which I what I have been using, and creates a problem for volunteer editors not seeing the issue in time.

Yes it makes total sense for users to pull over, unplug car play and report a closure
It couldn’t possibly be on the development team to implement such a feature

I totally agree! We need a road closure button on carplay and AA versions of Waze! This is extra important in Michigan where they make you do a "Michigan Left" aka turn around on a split median road where if one is closed for construction you may have to drive an extra mile out of your way to get to the next available one! Please add this button!

so many reports of "missing road" are actually closures. this is a pretty glaring omission to both the Android Auto and CarPlay offerings... how long has it been now since this idea was posted and we've seen nothing?
