Button customization on Waze with Android Auto & Carplay
• My suggestion is for the following feature: Adaptive Button Placement/Customizable Controls
• My suggestion solves this problem:
• Convenience during Driving: Allowing users to position buttons based on the side of the road they are driving on could make the interface more convenient and accessible, reducing the need for awkward movements while driving.
• Road Safety: Avoiding stretches and dangerous movements to reach buttons could contribute to safer driving, reducing distractions and improving focus on the road.
• Interface Personalization: Allowing users to position buttons as they prefer could offer a more personalized experience, adapting the interface to individual preferences and enhancing overall user satisfaction.
• Adaptation to Different Driving Contexts: In countries where driving is on the left or right, the ability to customize button positions could improve the usability and ergonomics of the app to accommodate various driving modes.
• In more words:
I frequently use Waze with Android Auto, and I’ve noticed that the buttons for destination search and hazard reporting are positioned on the opposite side compared to the driving side. I would like to suggest considering the option to customize the position of these buttons based on the side of the road the user is driving on. For example, in countries where driving is on the left, it might be more convenient to have these buttons on the left side of the screen, and vice versa, or even allow users to place them wherever they prefer on the screen.
This not only would make searching and reporting more convenient but could also contribute to safer driving by avoiding hazardous movements during navigation!
