Pop-up banners hijack CarPlay functionality
Trying again...
Navigation pop-up banners hijack the functionality of other CarPlay apps. Whenever a Waze banner pops up, it overrides the ability to select any other function in CarPlay. It complicates the simplicity & minimal distraction for which CarPlay is designed. My car has a joystick knob to scroll through & select a CarPlay function, & there is no way to stop these banners from popping up. Turning the knob a click, or selecting one of the console buttons hides the banner for a fraction of a second, but the banner keeps incessantly popping up. When I move my cursor…

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:

BMW idrive 7
Dear Waze Team,
I am a dedicated Waze user and BMW driver, and I would like to raise a feature request that I believe would make Waze significantly better and safer to use in BMW vehicles: proper integration into the instrument cluster and head-up display.
I currently use Waze in a BMW G42 M240i xDrive, model year 2021, equipped with iDrive 7, Apple CarPlay, and the latest iOS and Waze versions. While Waze works well on the central CarPlay display, navigation instructions are not shown in the digital instrument cluster or in the BMW head-up display. This means that important…

FIX the CarPlay map disappearing after driving for a few minutes
First off, it's infuriating that PROBLEMS can't be reported on the Support page.
The CarPlay map disappears after a few minutes of driving. All the control buttons remain, but the moving map is just a white field. This is a failure that makes Waze absolutely useless on CarPlay. This problem started with the latest iOS 5.19.1.0 version of Waze.2 votes -
Average speed zone - keep indicator on screen in car play
If we can’t have the calculation of our average speed at least keep an icon on screen in car play. If we miss the notification we entered an average speed zone we may not realise we are in one.

Waze on CarPlay not re-rendering the map when screen size changes
It's started recently, I drive Acura RDX 2024, its screen is split into 2 parts, the main screen part and the additional information part. The CarPlay has a button that allows to toggle the CarPlay to be shown only on the main part, or full screen on both parts.
After the tapping the toggle button the CarPlay display size changes and the map disappears and not re-rendering again until switched to another app and then back to Waze.2 votes -
Avoid Specific Countries When Routing
Hello Google Maps/Apple Maps/Waze Team,
I would like to propose a very important routing feature that is currently missing from all major navigation apps:
📌 Feature: Avoid Specific Countries When Routing
Users should be able to select one or more countries they do NOT want to enter during navigation.
Similar to “Avoid highways” or “Avoid tolls,” but for entire countries.Why this feature matters:
In many regions (especially the Balkans, Eastern Europe, Middle East, etc.), some users are not allowed to enter certain countries due to political restrictions, documentation issues, or border regulations.
Currently:
• Google Maps/Waze/Apple Maps will often…2 votes -

motorcycle display preferences for carplay
I have 5" carplay units on both of my motorcycles. (no this is not a display size issue). My preferred map software in carplay, is Waze, as I want the most crowdsourced information such as cops, traffic, construction, etc. My only problem on the motorcycle with carplay/Waze display is that the map is way too FINE and small print, the speed is too small, and red/black which are fairly impossible to read as they're both dark colors.
My ask, and idea, and suggestion... either basically control over the display SIZE to make the fonts and boldness of the roads and…

Increase the map speedometer when using Apple Carplay after iOS26 upgrade.
After the iOS26 update when using the Apple Carplay the speedometer was changed to a tinny version, very hard to see when driving. The overall experience with the carplay was better, the new carplay itself changed to a better resolution that fits better the 10inch display of my car, the only exception is the small speedometer used by Waze. Please, add an option that allow the user to configure the size of the speedometer when using Carplay.

Show directions in vehicle Dashboard
Recently Google Maps had an update so the turn to turn directions and are now shown in Ford Sync 4 vehicle dashboard. Apple Maps also has this feature for years. Can Waze also bring this functionality helping to see in the dash or head up display so we can keep more focused on the road? It would be fantastic if Waze can be on the same level as other navigation apps.

CarPlay voice reporting optional
Please make voice reporting optional in CarPlay. I’m seeing significantly less reporting since this feature was installed. Plus, I get an error every time press the button and it won’t let me use voice if I wanted to.

Reporting Turns of Apple Music in CarPlay
Since the "Talk to Report" feature was introduced for user reporting of road hazards etc, as soon as I touch the Report button Music stops and Waze chimes in. This works, but the music won't turn back on. This regardless of the fact that "Talk to Report" is turned off in settings on the iOS App. So far the only cure for Music is to reset the phone (and never report again)! This is a shame, as I like to be part of the community, but the current price is too high.

Work with Apple to bring back Siri support for Waze
I found on a Google forum that you removed Siri support since Apple's new privacy policy "prohibits apps from collecting data about users' location without their consent." But arguments can be made that everything here is consensual. Please work to bring this back since it was a VERY useful feature for Car Play, in an era of dangerous touchscreen in our vehicles.

L’affichage de la vitesse locale est vraiment trop petit, presque illisible.
Bonjour,
Je suis un heureux utilisateur de votre application, j’ai une suggestion que me paraît très importante :
L’affichage de la vitesse locale est vraiment trop petit, presque illisible sur mon écran sur le tableau de bord. Ce paramètre est essentiel pour moi puisque l’affichage des vitesses limites sur la route est presque inexistant vu la distance exagérée entre deux panneaux. Je constate fréquemment que je ne sais plus à un moment donné quelle est la vitesse réglementaire actuelle. On peut être facilement en infraction non souhaitée.
Je vous remercie de votre aide.2 votes
