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.

Need an update for overheating phone!!
When using Waze on CarPlay it causes my phone to heat up quickly and end up stop charging and kills my battery ( 40% in an hour) by running Waze on CarPlay. This needs addressed. It started happening after the iOS 16 update and doesn’t do it with any other navigation app or any other app period.
Please fix this. Oh and add stop signs yield signs and traffic lights to the app as well.

Access Phone’s Calendar from Apple CarPlay
At the moment, you can access your iPhone’s calendar from the Waze app on the iPhone. This allows you to select the calendar item from Waze, and then Waze will automatically commence navigation to the address associated with the calendar entry.
Unfortunately this same feature isn’t available from Waze within Apple CarPlay.
This feature enhancement request is to request the same calendar access ability from Waze in the iPhone app is made available on the Waze Apple CarPlay app,
That way, you can get in your car, and from Apple CarPlay Waze, select the calendar entry appointment you are driving…

Make Map Chats readable on Android Auto and CarPlay
Map Chats often contain useful information on lane closures or other hazards, but while their icons show up on the car's nav screen when using CarPlay or Android Auto, they can't be tapped on or read.
It is far more hazardous for me to unplug my phone, open the Waze app, and read the Map Chat than it would be to simply glance at my dash nav and tap the chat - you could even have the phone's TTS read it out while displaying it, then give the option to give it a thumbs-up.

horizontal screen error
Hello, I usually have waze on the screen without setting the route, but in the latest versions if you use it in horizontal mode the search bar is not hidden, and it occupies a quarter of the screen, before with a double tap on the screen if it was hidden, please re-implement this option.
Greetings.

Hide “Work” shortcut in CarPlay when not set
When selecting the magnifying glass for an address in Waze on CarPlay, the first two options are the Home and Work shortcuts/favorites, which appear regardless if they have been setup in the app or not. This request is to hide either or both if there is not an address assigned (or have an option to hide them altogether).

CarPlay end navigation with voice command
I’d like to end my navigation early with a voice command. I’m surprised it’s not already available.
For example saying “hey siri and navigation” and it stops the navigation. Right now Waze gives an error “ Waze hasn't added support for that with Siri.“4 votes -
Enhance Waze on CarPlay’s Instrument Display
Thank you for adding Waze to the instrument cluster on CarPlay - it’s a huge improvement! However, the current implementation could be refined for better usability.
• The resolution is too low, making the map appear overly zoomed in with limited visibility of the road ahead.
• Key details, such as potholes and hazards, are missing.
• A higher-resolution option with a more zoomed-out view would greatly improve navigation.
• Adding a 3D perspective or allowing users to customise the zoom level would make it even more useful.Having Waze on the cluster display is fantastic for quick glances, but…

Toll
I was using Waze in CarPlay today taking a ride on the PA turnpike. It showed that the toll rates were $22.00. This is the accurate toll price if I was paying cash or using toll by plate where they take a picture of my license plate. But people who have an ezpass pay significantly less than that rate, sometimes 50% less. Could you add an option in the Waze account to show the ezpass toll rate vs the cash rate toll rate? Perhaps a toggle button that you have an expand transmitter.

Closures
I would like Waze to alert closures as well, not just lane closures.

Please keep arrival time on screen during alerts.
Please keep arrival time on screen when alert pops up while driving. Whenever I get speed, red light camera alerts, the arriving time disappears and comes back only after alert goes away.
There is enough room in car play screen for both or make the alert smaller please. I would like to see, arrival time and remaining time left at all times.
Thank you very much.
I love Waze. Keep doing great job and happy holidays!!!!4 votes -
Change Waze user interface on CarPlay (with or without Touch screen) to DEFAULT cursor position is ‘Report’.
I have no Touchscreen on CarPlay, controls therefore are scroll buttons on steering wheel. Whenever I’m driving it take several (4 typically) button presses just to toggle the ‘report’ button (like if there is a car on side of road). I’m recommending that the CarPlay cursor defaults to this button so user just presses ONE click to file a report, confirm a warning or whatever - much safer (eyes on road) and more likely to use as it’s a pain & by the time you reach the selected report button on screen, hazard is past / behind you.
