  1. Allow users to choose to display routes on their Phone instead forcing on the Android Auto

    Allow users to choose whether to use their phone as Waze for routes or Android Auto as the main display, instead of forcing it to display on Android Auto. Some people want to stream music using Android Auto and use their phones to see directions, as it doesn't distract them from the road. Some head units in cars are positioned lower from the direction of the road and are more of a hassle to look at while driving.

  2. Adjust the location of alerts

    In Android Auto, whenever an alert appears, it hides the search buttons, alternative routes, sound, and especially the button to create an alert. This means you have to close the alert to access the create alert button. This wastes time creating the alert and makes it unsafe, as this additional step distracts the driver.

    One suggestion is to have alerts appear below the traffic directions without pushing the interface to the right.

  3. Bring back the passenger exception

    I use android auto and my wife copilots using her phone. Now she cannot use her phone to scan for places to stop or check for obstacles especially in an rv. Waze is now useless for road trips. Back to another map because waze is the only one w this restriction.

  4. Malheureusement la mise à jour fait que sur les anciennes voitures comme la mienne jetta 2016 avec un écran un peu plus petit

    Malheureusement la mise à jour fait que sur les anciennes voitures comme la mienne qui est une Jetta 2016 avec un écran un peu plus petit j'ai maintenant de la misère lire le nom des sorties c'était beaucoup mieux avant pourquoi ne pas avoir deux versions d'interface une pour les nouveaux écrans qui sont beaucoup plus grands et une pour les anciens qui en plus n'ont pas besoin d'être en haute définition donc les images ne prendront pas beaucoup de place dans le fichier APK

  5. Make text clearer

    In android auto, smaller text on the map is barely readable due to it not having anti aliasing and the text isnt even aligned correctly, so every letter has a 1-2 pixel height difference, and the text is also jittery.
    Please, fix this. In google maps, it renders really well even on lower resolution displays.

  6. Waze on Android Auto drains battery even when charging unlike Google Maps

    Device: Samsung Galaxy S23 FE

    Android version: 15, One UI 7.0
    Waze version: 5.10.0.2

    Car setup: Android Auto, 15W fast charging

    Issue:

    When using Waze with Android Auto and YouTube Music, my phone battery drains even while connected to fast charging (15W charging is displayed).

    When I switch to Google Maps under the exact same setup, my phone charges normally and the battery level increases as expected.

    This suggests that Waze is consuming more power than necessary on Android Auto. Please investigate and optimize Waze performance/battery efficiency for this scenario.

  7. Option to not have WAZE auto start on Android Auto. I don't need/want WAZE if i'm making short around town trips.

    Many times if I'm going to be making short round-town errands, I don't really need WAZE. A simple option that would save on battery utilization and charge cycles. WAZE should initialize only when I run the app. This would extend the battery life and reduce the number of charge cycles thereby extending battery wear. You're SOL if you forget your charging cable.

  9. Adding a “Smart Location Clipboard” Feature to Waze on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

    Proposal: Adding a “Smart Location Clipboard” Feature to Waze on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

    Current Issue:
    When using Waze through CarPlay or Android Auto, drivers and map editors cannot directly save or share a location from the Waze interface.
    To save a location, the driver must:
    1. Disconnect the phone from CarPlay/Android Auto.
    2. Open Waze on the phone.
    3. Select “Share location.”
    4. Exit the app.
    5. Paste the location into Notes or another app and manually add details.

    This process is complicated, distracting for the driver, and in some cases, can cause accidents.

    Proposed Solution – “Smart…

  10. Lista completa de indicaciones en la ruta

    Por favor, añadan la lista de giros a la integración con Android Auto!

    En Android auto sería muy útil poder desplegar la lista de los siguientes giros para poder anticiparte (como en la aplicación de móvil), porque muchas veces es confuso.

    Siempre quiero saber los detalles de la ruta seleccionada; a veces, Waze simplemente se equivoca o conozco una manera mejor.

    Ahora mismo, los usuarios seguimos las indicaciones ciegamente y no conocemos más de un giro a la vez.

    ¡Gracias!

  11. Wazec recent trips on Android Auto

    When I start my car and android auto can't on, Waze will display my most recent trips which doesn't make sense. Except for my home, work offices and other locations I want saved, how often do anyone have to drive to the same locations after each trip? Please put back and pop up the saved list whenever android auto is started.

  13. Show turn notifications on phone even when Waze is active in Android Auto

    When using Waze via Android Auto I receive helpful turn notifications (e.g. “Turn left in 200 meters”) as notifications on my smartphone only when Waze is minimized (e.g. while Spotify is in focus).
    Howeve when Waze is active on the car screen these notifications do not appear on the phone.

    It would be very useful if those notifications could appear on the phone at all times via an option, i would find this very usefull
    Thanks!

  14. Using back button & walking/cycling

    When Waze comes up with several route options and I choose one, then I decide to go back and view the alternate route, it won't let me. This would be a goid option to have. I also miss the walking/cycling option

  16. allow users to input address from phone when connected to android auto like Google Maps

    this is a feature that is available with Google maps but not with Waze. its convenient to hand my phone to my spouse to update and input the address from the phone. we do use the "voice" feature but it is really hit or miss and it's just easier to update address thru the phone instead of the headunit

  17. Vox activated hazard reports in AA

    Introduce voice command reports for road hazards available for users using Waze on Android auto on their vehicle's head unit. This would mean that drivers don't have to hunt and peck through the hazards menu.
