Problem with newest update
Hello.
I would like to give some feedback regarding latest Android auto update:
New ui is worse than old one. First way old speedometer worked was better (it was smaller and it only showed speed limit when going above the limit (and showed points around the circle as you approached speed limit). That was much better than current one.
Second thing is that new Drive now feature and other text messages on app are too big and take up too much screen from the map.
Also, forcing dark mode for messages is not a great ux choice since it can be hard to read during sunny days (also, it's bad in contrast to light mode map, specially during the day). It would be great if you could revert it back to light mode when map is in light mode and dark when map is in dark mode.
Thirdly, whenever I am parked, waze thinks I'm driving and I can't search for destination in search box on car's screen (I have to disconnect phone, type in destination on phone and then reconnect phone to car (voice controls don't work fine since I don't live in English speaking country and lot of places don't have English sounding names and voice recognising struggles with place names)). Just to make sure that it wasn't a car issue, I tried same feature on google maps and it works fine there.
For reference, car where I use waze is 2019 Kia Rio (for European market)
It would be great if you would give option of choosing between old UI and new UI along side with fixing Search bar bug (Also, every once in a while when using the app while parked it gives me that safety break thing even though I am parked, and also I can't go to info menu and it only says that is it unavailable while driving (although I am parked and hand break is up, and gearbox is in neutral (manual car (Kia rio 2019)) (also, forgot to mention that the car is a manual with manual hand break, if that gives you some insight))
