U.K. Motorway Variable speed limits
Is there a way that Waze can receive an information feed of the U.K. motorway variable speed limits?
I am sure this must exist and have the ability to be tapped into.
The M25, is a great example, but there are many more motorways across the country, often have variable speed limits posted on signs above the lanes. These can change depending on the operators and in response to incidents or traffic conditions.
It would be incredibly useful to be able to see on the Waze screen what the current limit is, and to know that it is current.8 votes -

Waze app bug - super annoying
app runs in background after disconnecting from Apple CarPlay. Please fix this! It’s a battery killer, and super annoying to have to manually close after every trip. It’s enough to uninstall the app.

Waze should stop after disconnecting from car play
Waze starts automatically after connecting to carplay, but doesn’t turn off automatically after disconnecting from carplay. It should turn off automatically based on proximity to destination + carplay disconnect + optional couple minutes delay :) I think this will be a better user experience and will improve battery life of the user. I saw a few threads on reddit about this issue but without a solution.

turn not allowed for next turn on carplay
When the turn I need to make is not available, I should be able to say "turn not available" in the edits while using carplay.
There isn't a need to be able to edit multiple streets, just the turn Waze is asking for because I need to be able to be re-directed in a foreign area.8 votes -
Head up display
Dear Waze Team,
Please add Head-Up Display (HUD) support for Waze navigation in Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Many modern vehicles, including the new Toyota RAV4 2026, are equipped with advanced HUD systems that can display navigation instructions directly on the windshield. It would be extremely useful and safer if Waze could show upcoming turns, lane guidance, distance to the next maneuver, and other navigation information on the HUD.
Waze is my preferred navigation app, and HUD integration would greatly improve the driving experience and help drivers keep their eyes on the road.
Thank you for considering this feature

For Right Hand Drive countries, give directions from the right speaker.
I live in a RHD country and the directions from Waze come out of the front left hand speaker - which makes perfect sense in the (majority) LHD countries, but is quite hard to hear in certain circumstances.
Either the sound should come equally out of both front speakers or it should be localised so that in LHD countries it comes out of the left speaker, and in RHD countries it comes out of the right speaker so it's closest to the driver.

Enable Toyota instrument cluster navigation
New Toyota vehicles like Corolla 2023+, latest C-HR, and similar cars have the ability to partially show navigation on the instrument cluster in front of the steering wheel. For example turn right after 150 meters. This works with Google Maps, but not with Waze. Waze has implemented this functionality in the beginning of the year 2025, but not for Toyota vehicles. Please add support for Toyota.

Change colour of car on “Vehicle on Shoulder” alert icon
When submitting a report and looking at the possible report types while driving. From the corner of one’s eye the “Vehicle on shoulder” alert icon and “Object” icons are very similar.
I suggest the colour of the vehicle in the “vehicle on shoulder” icon be changed to a different distinct colour that also accounts for colourblind people.
If the vehicle was blue or green for example it would be easier to quickly tell the icons apart. Otherwise I feel like I need to distract myself from driving to double check the description next to the icons before confirming the report.

App closure after Apple CarPlay shutdown
Please fix the app so it automatically closes after the car shuts off with Apple CarPlay. It used to do this until about 6-12 months ago. It’s annoying that Waze stays running when you get out of your car, draining your phone battery.

Make map zoom buttons on CarPlay always be visible.
Currently, in CarPlay it takes several clicks in different locations of the screen just to get the map zoomed in/out just one step. Since the zoom buttons are so frequently used, please consider making them hot buttons (alway visible on the map). Seems silly to have to hunt down through the UI to find the zoom buttons, and that could be a safety issue as well.

Allow me to change audio source in Play Sound Via menu when using CarPlay
Waze audio defaults to CarPlay audio and cannot be changed while connected to CarPlay. I would like to be able to select an alternative Bluetooth source other than CarPlay while connected to CarPlay. The fix would need to be made in Settings -> Voice & Sound -> Play Sound Via. Allow user to select any sound output they desire and NOT default to carplay.

Please fix Waze CarPlay lag
CarPlay lags almost a full minute upon input. Your position in the map is also delayed. So turn by turn directions will be missed. Waze CarPlay is almost unusable.
