Make the speed limit and speed bigger
The speed limit and current speed are so small on the screen you can’t really see it when glancing - needs to be a similar size as the one on Google maps abs Apple Maps and make it so it’s easily readable

Please make the speed-limit circle and number much larger and clearer. 60/80 and 100/120 can look very similar from a distance, especially with the phone mounted in a car.
This is particularly important in Saudi Arabia, where there is no 20 km/h margin like in the UAE. If the limit is 100 km/h, even 101 km/h can result in a fine. So clearly seeing the exact limit is very important.
The temporary enlarged display when the limit changes is much easier to read. Please consider making it larger permanently or adding an adjustable size option. I received 4 speeding fines in one month partly because of this issue.

+1 for this!
As a motorcycle rider, taking your eyes off the road even for a second to squint at small numbers is a major safety hazard.
A simple toggle in settings for a Large / High-Visibility Speedometer (or a dedicated Motorcycle Display Mode) would make a huge difference in readability and safety.
Waze is all about driver and rider safety—this small UI addition would be a game-changer! -

We need a method to increase the size of the Speed Limit Icon, so that it can safely be seen at a glance.

I'd also like the arrival time and miles left made larger or at least have the option to enlarge them.

Would help with checking speed limits. A digital option might be even better.

It would be very useful if the speed limit could be increased and if there were an option to choose where the display overlay is positioned.

This feature is very important especially when you are driving and having a bigger font size makes it much easier to read and stops you from changing your concentration

The current Waze App speed limit sign is way too small to be usable; please make the size User Selectable with an extra, extra large setting.
In addition, please add an optional feature where an audio tone changes pitch in accordance with how much the current vehicle speed exceeds the posted limit. (User settings with a warning speed threshold, warning volume, and variable warning occurrence would be especially helpful.) An audio warning would be a great way to notify Waze Users excessive speed without forcing them to take their eyes off the road.
For me, the speed limit is the most information from Waze.
Thank you! -

If one speed display has to be larger than the other I would prefer it to be the speed limit display. A quick glance to confirm the limit is extremely useful. If I want to know how fast I’m going, I can just as easily check my vehicle speedometer. Google Maps has it this way around and it is the ONLY part of their App that I prefer to Waze.

As it is now the small speedometer is not a glanceable feature for many people.

Hi Waze team,
Could you please consider adding these features?
1. Make the displayed speed limit larger and easier to read while driving.
2. Add an option to set a speed alert threshold below the speed limit, for example 5 km/h under the limit.
3. Add an early voice warning when approaching school zones or reduced-speed areas.
4. Allow users to customise the speed-limit display size and alert sensitivity.These features would help drivers stay below the limit, especially in school zones and high-risk areas where early warnings are important.
Thank you.

Please give the option to customize the speedometer size. Needs to be larger to view at a quick glance.

Increase size of speed limit sign option . The current one is to small, and requires more eyes of road time.
Increase in size so speedo is readable at a quick glance. Possibly make larger and more particularly when there is a change in the speed limit

The speed limit icon is far too small. Not too bothered about the current speed icon as I can always look at my cars speedo
