Activate "picture in picture" (PIP).
Activate "picture in picture" (PIP). With Gmaps you can have the map superimposed on another application
Great thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Why the vote button is inactive?

This is the reason I use other nav apps and the only feature that is stopping Waze from standing above all others

Please have the app designers enable app to draw over other apps when you minimize it. It does play in the background well and call out alerts. In app permissions settings you can turn on draw over other apps but the function doesn't execute.

This is the reason I don't use waze. If you would not lock the voting on this suggestion, it would have million votes...

Multi-Destination and pip are absolute no-brainers for Waze
It's pretty shocking they haven't been implemented yet, given that Waze has a more professional user base than Google Maps, when used in the app form eg. by drivers, couriers and taxi drivers

Can't believe it's been 5 years and this hasn't been added yet. It's the one reason I don't use it.

Please add a thumbnail for directions when the app is minimized. Google Maps has this feature and it's great! Waze directions disappear when the app is minimized.

The fact this app doesn't have this feature these days is insane. It's been out for years on Google maps, Netflix, Hulu, etc. The most irritating thing about Waze. Makes this app feel 15 years old and outdated in current technology.

I would like to have the feature that when I leave the app but have the directions still running to have “turn alerts” or “direction display” the top of my phone or an alert when a new direction is coming up. Instead of having to go back to the app for the directions.

Unforgivable that this is present on iOS but not in Amdroid when it was forst released in Android...

This should be a mandatory feature for any map app on the phone.

Add PIP to Waze, come on, its the 1 thing that is reallly missing. Its hard to go back to Waze after using this in Google Maps.

Lacks PIP, not useful. For people like me who depend on GPS on the road on a daily basis, it is critical that the map stays on top, regardless of what other tasks we may be using our smartphones for. It appears that Waze fans have been asking for this feature for several years and that Waze has acknowledge the requirement, yet to this date nothing has been done about it, which means that there are also gaps between what users want and what Waze customer service does.

In Google maps, this is a very useful feature, you can simultaneously watch the navigation and turn on some kind of application.
And also thanks to this mode, there will be less lags, since now, when switching between applications, the vase may no longer adequately determine your location. -

A floating Waze map, so I can use other apps it while walking. I have to switch to Google Maps a lot in order to do that.

I think you're being ironic. We asked for this a long time ago. I think the company that owns Android imposes some sanctions. Business are business.

Allow the map to minimize to a small floating view. So that it can be used while other apps/windows that are open. I'd say similar to a certain competitors. Just remember not to copy copy. Those companies would love to own you. ***** them, ❤️ waze!
