worrisome design trends lately
I'm noticing some worrisome design trends lately in Waze, please don't ruin an app that was almost perfect as it was!
Examples:
1) forcing Google Assitant down our throats, when the voice recognition Waze used before was flawless;
2) those arrows on top (lane guidance) telling which lane to use are completely unnecessary and redundant and take up screen real estate;
3) the new speed camera warning in white down below is ugly af, contrasts with my dark color scheme, and again, takes up valuable screen real estate unnecessarily and reduces the part of the map we see, it was perfect before.
All these pointless changes and few others lead me to believe that there's a new designer in charge who somehow needs to justify his salary with bogus and unnecessary modifications that only ruin the app.

Hello. I also drew attention to this. But I thought that we do not get used to the new immediately, so these updates seem unusual in the first place. However, the main thing is that it is convenient to use.
