2 major bugs affecting Carplay
For many months now Waze has had 2 infuriating bugs in Carplay
1) Stops dynamically rerouting if I try to check alternative routes. To get it to return to normal I have to close the alternative routes screen on my car's infotainment screen (OK, that's normal), but then I also need to pick up and unlock my phone so I can close the alternative routes display on the phone as well. Until I do that, Waze gets stuck following the highlighted route and stops rerouting if I deviate from the highlighted route. It took me MONTHS to figure out what was stopping it from re-routing.
2) Aspects of the phone screen are in day mode even though it's configured to be permanent night mode. The only way to resolve this is to select day mode in the settings menu, then select night mode again.
Both bugs are 100% reproducible every time.

I should add, I'm currently using Google Maps and considering deleting Waze from my phone - it's totally unusable in this bugged state
