Sleep the screen
Carplay makes my phone overheat on carplay. Its done this on many phones (Iphones) over the years and on long motorway journeys go back to the home screen and the issue goes away and the phone cools down. Its happened on multiple head units too (android). A sleep button for the map display might help this.

Less clicks for Carplay reports
It takes three clicks in Carplay to make a report. However, with FlitsMeister, you only need two clicks for the most common warnings. Making a report takes too long now, and since you're driving, you can't look at your screen for an extended period.

Car Play phone view switch
When connected via Car Play, the map can only be seen on the car. The turn-by-turn list is the only thing you see on the phone screen. I want the ability to see the map on the phone too. When re-routing occurs I often want to view the route to see if I want to go a different way. Trying to pinch/move/navigate the car screen is hard, and becomes unsafe very quickly. Pinching/moving on the phone is much easier and ultimately safer.

When using Apple car play there is no option to add a stop with the closest available location on route
When using Apple car play there is no option to add a stop using the closest available location on your current route. It only shows by mileage but that can sometimes backtrack you.

Please fix dark mode in Apple Carplay.
It’s been broke since last update. It only works right when I open the app on my phone and radio at the same time, which negates the purpose of carplay being handsfree. I’ve been patiently awaiting an update for weeks, but I’m about to delete your app for burning my retinas every morning when I drive to work in the dark.

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.

Helping the police
I’m a police officer. I always have my Waze map pull up on my CarPlay. But I have found that it does not provide the names of every cross road while driving. I found that is does not have the name of the current street that I am on unless I am navigating somewhere. These are not critical changes as to how the app works in general. Mile markers on the highways would be great as well, specially if I’m trying to find the location of a reported accident. As little as these changes are, they can help save lives.

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.

Waze to issue Alerts when using CarPlay split screen
According to Waze support, when using Carplay split-screen (where Waze splits screen with other app like music), Waze won't issue traffic Alerts by design!! That's true, I have confirmed it. As soon as Waze returns to "full screen", it resumes issuing traffic alerts (danger, weather, radar, etc).
Split-screen is a quite usefull feature of Car-Play as it simplifies greatly audio/music control on the road, without the issue of messing with several buttons.
Although in split-screen mode the screen area that Waze has to show information is reduced, there is no reason why Waze could not keep issuing the alerts by…3 votes -

Cannot read reports from Wazers (green ...) when in CarPlay
When in CarPlay I can sometimes see a report (green ...) but cannot click on it to hear it play nor - when I am the right-side passenger see it on my phone to find out what is ahead. I wish it would play as alerts do - or that my phone would mirror the CarPlay display so I can better navigate from the right seat.

Distance
When CarPlay is in tiled mode (where it shows what song is playing and Waze only has half the screen) Waze shows me the ETA and the minutes remaining—distance remaining is left off due to the smaller screen real estate. Since I can derive time remaining from the ETA, how about showing distance remaining instead? So instead of:
10:31am 42 min
show:
10:31am 35 miles3 votes
