After updating to 4.94.0.3 Waze is very difficult to navigate in Android Auto with a rotary knob (non-touch screen).
When using a car without a touch screen, it is extremely difficult to navigate the new interface. For example, the Cursor used to default to the "Pin" icon while in navigation. This was great because it allows you to quickly report Hazards and Police.
Now after the update, it defaults to the "Magnifying Glass" icon. This means you have to scroll past SEVEN, yes... 7, other icons to get the to "Pin" to report a hazard. I tried moving the cursor to the "Pin" Icon and leaving it there, but after a few seconds it defaults back to the Search Icon. The last thing I'm trying to do while already navigating someplace is use the search Icon. I've all but stopped trying to report anything on the road as a hazard because of this change. This is exacerbated by the fact that voice commands no longer seem to work.
If future developers out there want a "what not to do" of UI updates... this is textbook.
It's almost as if Waze is sabotaging the app to force people back to Google Maps.
