CarPlay reporting button
The buttons to report “Still There” and “Not There” are stacked vertically in CarPlay, this leads to accidentally pressing the wrong option a significant number of times due to a badly timed bump. If the buttons were next to each other this wouldn’t be an issue.

Driving directions on virtual cockpit
Hey Wazers, I have found out, that when you use Apple Maps app through CarPlay, it is able to transfer information about next driving direction (for example "in 100m turn right" and an arrow) to the control unit of my car and it then shows it to me on my virtual cockpit. Since anothe iOS app can do this, I hope others should be able to, arent they? It will be really good to implement this...

Modify Waze CarPlay
Waze in CarPlay does not correctly visualize the routes to choose them, it does not correctly show the distance, nor does it show the costs of tolls or highways, that information should be available on the CarPlay screen, since according to current laws you cannot take your cell phone while driving.

Show turn by turn navigation on the main car dashboard using carplay

Update the car play / android auto app of Waze
Waze should be updated for car play user and android auto. We do not have full functionalities like the iOS or android mobile app. For example we can only report police, not hides ones or in the opposite side. Same for errors in the map, we can’t add a commentary if we use car play for example. All iOS and android fonctionnalités should be added to car play and android auto to have a 100% good,experience.

Change horizontal confirmation buttons to vertical YES or NO
As a CarPlay user, I find it difficult to accurately hit the horizontal button confirming if it's "Still there". I propose making the buttons a vertical side by side "Yes" and "No" with the question posed above it "Still there?"

Make speed limit larger on apple carplay
I have read the responses to this issue. It seems to be a bot responding as:
Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.
That is NOT the issue. Just remove the speedometer and make the speed limit LARGER. Like it appears on Google Maps, which owns Waze.

Apple CarPlay shortcut for reporting a hazard
To report a hazard (ie pothole) requires 4 clicks. Would be great if there was a few one click shortcuts to report the most common hazards such as a pothole, police, and vehicle stopped on side of road. This would be much safer than fumbling around to report a pothole while driving.

Display destination on screen during navigation
Lately, I have repeatedly run into situations where, after driving for 1-2 hours, I have doubts whether I have selected the right destination. To be able to check this, I have to interrupt the navigation. This usually causes distractions while driving.
My suggestion is to introduce a display of the current destination above the estimated travel time field. This feature would be especially beneficial when using the Apple CarPlay integration. It would help users like me to always keep the desired destination in view, thus eliminating the dangerous interruptions during the drive.17 votes -
Street name covering nav line
When I plug my iPhone 11 into the car play in my car and use the app, it can be frustrating that when I come to a turning, the street name often covers the route (the blue line) so I can't see the turning easily. I suggest fixing it so the street names never sit over the blue navigation line. Thanks.

ETA Box should never be hidden.

Make STILL THERE? larger
Please make the “Still there” and “Not there” voices larger and separate them. I often miss what I am going for because of a bump on the road or just because they are right next to each other. Separating them to something similar to when I receive a phone call and have the option to accept or decline would be very nice. Having large green and red buttons to say if a report is still there would result in less focus away from driving and less errors when selecting.

CarPlay Instrument Cluster Support
Apple CarPlay has started to support instrument clusters (Display behind the steering wheel), however so far it only supports Apple Maps. Developers have said this is available for apps like Waze to utilize, but you guys would have to update it to support that. I was hoping you guys could push this update as it would be very convenient and helpful. Currently using CarPlay on a Land Rover with the latest Pivi system. Thank you!

Remove submenus from report “hazard” in CarPlay/AA.
To report road works, or a stopped car you need to click report then select hazard, then select 1 of 3 submenus and then select the hazard inside the submenu, I think this is unnecessary, since there is enough space in the CarPlay main report menu to separate the “hazard” button into 3 separate icons, each corresponding to one of the previous submenus, this wold eliminate an entire step in the reporting process, making it safer, and therefore more people wold use it.

Why do some reports require two confirmations in Car Play?
Why do some report confirmations require "Still There" to be selected twice? It seems to be based on distance from the incident for some reason, i.e. if I'm very close it seems to need on, but farther away asks twice.

Ability to Select HOV Routes in Carplay
Right now, when checking different routes, you cannot select an HOV route in Carplay (they just do not show up). You can still select it in the iOS app, but for some reason the Carplay app won't accept the route when you select it from the app. It requires you to select a route on the Carplay app (which doesn't include the HOV routes).
The only workaround I found is to set the HOV route before you connect to Carplay, but if you update the route during the trip, it loses the HOV route ability unless you disconnect Carplay while…
