Dear Waze Support Team,

I’d like to bring to your attention what I consider to be an important missing feature in the Waze app: the ability to set up automations for Waze on the iPhone.

The app consumes a relatively large amount of battery power even when running in the background. Therefore, it would be great if Waze would finally provide better control over background operations.

Users should be able to decide for themselves whether Waze is allowed to remain active in the background or not. Alternatively, a built-in sleep mode that automatically activates as soon as the connection to Apple CarPlay is disconnected would be helpful.

This would allow Waze to reduce background activity and battery consumption without having to manually close the app every time. I would appreciate it if you could include this feature in a future version. Flexible control over background activity would significantly improve the user experience and reduce battery consumption.

Thank you very much for your feedback and for forwarding this feature request to the relevant product team.

Best regards,
Marco
