I started using waze today out of curiosity, I'm going straight back to Google maps because of this absolute stinker of a UI issue.

I don't care at all what some random street I'll never pass again is called.

I care what the road layout is.

Any testing at all should have surfaced this issue, surely?

And If it's not a simple Boolean toggle - I'd be amazed.

Madness.

Sugiro uma correção:
Os balões com nomes das rua, eles aparecem na frente e atrapalham muito em conversões difíceis, fica confuso a visualização do percurso no mapa.

Is it possible to make changes so that the street name pop-ups do not cover the route at intersections?
There are situations where the intersection is completely hidden, and it’s unclear what maneuver needs to be performed. If nothing can be done about it, then at least please consider adding an option to disable the pop-ups.

One more thing — would it be possible to add an option to adjust the zoom level during maneuvers?
In my opinion, the navigation doesn't zoom in enough at crucial moments, and sometimes it’s hard to tell which way to go.

after last update street name covering "car arrow" on the map. can you move it away or give us on option to switch this street name off?

In cities, street names don't make it possible to see intersections where you need to turn or change streets. They should be removable. Thank you

I feel like the Street name tags are important, at times. Maybe a better idea would be to make them lighter in color, than the street that you are turning on.

The blue street names on the map are often hiding the blue route line. It’s confusing. I would like to have an option to hide them or to change their opacity

This feature is very annoying.
The name of street can be the same as others.

Ontzettend irritant deze street tags

I actually see very little of the map and often times when I need to see it to make a quick decision on direction, I cannot see anything because of the enormous bubbles.
It seems you cannot change the size of anything in the UI and just about everything is way bigger than it needs to be.

bubbles masks intersections
urgently offer the ability to erase these street names

Please change the location or remove the balloons with the names of the streets on the map. Whoever had this idea should be fired!

Please let us remove this street name tooltip. I don't understand why dev put that, we don't care 300km far from our destination to know the street names and we can't see anything. It can be dangerous. I stoped using your app because of that
And we are 7years after this post you just don't care about our remarks you prefer to put batman, or federer voice. Really good choice.. It's just common sense

Totally agree. It's annoying because it appear over everything making impossible to follow the route. Make it optional, if you like it - use it, but for a lot of us it's a cause to use other navigators as it's impossible to disable it.

Need an option to display or not names, making the map confusing and hiding important road design

Add button to remove street names from display, they are to big and hide major junctions along the route this applies to phone display and android auto

The street name balloon annotations often get in the way of intersections/junctions, it makes navigating new junctions very difficult... Please provide an option to remove these balloons

On several occasions, balloons cover streets and intersections, making it impossible to see the route clearly. I suggest an option to disable these balloons

would be nice to have an option to switch off the street name bubbles altogether or at least make them a seethrough, thanks
