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.

Trying to use CarPlay more and more to avoid futzing with my phone while driving. This would really help - reporting closures and accidents feel like they're the most important to me.

This important to ensure rerouting is effective.

This is crucial especially when routes don’t update

Having to pull over and disconnect my phone from my car just to report a closure is odious and contrary to the mission Waze is trying to accomplish.

Hello Team, Any news on this? It is essential to report closures because it is the only way to recalculate the route. Otherwise you are stuck in a loop

Road closures could be temporary, especially during large events, but it prevents accidents. It used to be available.

This feature WAS available in the past. Why not now??? Having to unplug my iPhone to do so is so dangerous!!

The reason why I picked restriction on my Waze was because I could not find any other option to show that there was a road closure on my map. Turns out the volunteer map editor said this was incorrect and suggested I voice my concern here. Why isn’t this a feature offered in CarPlay? This seems to be a gross flaw in Waze. This is one of the main reasons for community input to help others not get stuck in traffic. How can Waze recalculate a route for others if that option is not available in CarPlay? Please make this happen ASAP. This goes against your own mission statement: “In 2009, we created a crowd-sourced navigation app that would make it easier to circumvent literal and figurative bumps in the road. How? By working together.”

When using car play/ Apple play, it does not provide the issue of road closure. I have come across this problem twice now and was only able to place map issue, which is not the correct input. It also does not let me use the app on my phone when plugged into the car.
Please place Road Closure option on CarPlay/ Apple Play. -

This is the number one complaint I have about Waze and CarPlay. The current app creates a dangerous situation because drivers have to disable CarPlay and then use the app on their phones while driving to report a closed road. This report is the most important report a driver can make while driving and using Waze.

Yes please add this feature! I have to physically disconnect from CarPlay in order to report road closures which is very dangerous and extremely frustrating

This is a significant issue with Waze. It makes it so roads appear open when closed. It also stops reroutes when roads are closed. When you need this the most, it fails.

I have to physically disconnect my phone from CarPlay to report a closure I encounter, which is dangerous. I'm not sure why CarPlay can't be set to create the same interface for an upcoming intersection only (understand why you might not want users to move the map while driving).

NOT having apple car play road closure feature is truly annoying!! it would really be helpful for those of us that use WAZE everyday for travel to and from work :(

Please make this happen! I live in an area with road closures due to flooding. It’s not possible to mark the road as closed even - via the mobile app - unless you are in close proximity. By which time I’m in the car and can’t add it via car play. I.e if I know a road is closed 2 miles away, and Waze routes me down that road, if I click in the app “road closed” the only “arrows” I can click to advise of the closure are within the first few turns, with no option to mark the road as closed further in to the route.

Need the ability to mark a road closed via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, especially temporarily, for accurate data/use of Waze!
