Android Auto alerts highly intrusive, even dangerous
[On a knob-controlled UI]
Popups like “Police ahead”, and “vehicle on shoulder ahead” can be very intrusive. They seem to appear much earlier than before and there is no way to simply dismiss it without confirming or negating the alert. I would suggest that hitting the “Back” button should dismiss the alert.Responding to the alert is way too involved. When I get an alert, the “Still there” button is highlighted, however it is not the selected control. Usually, the Search button is. So, it looks like I can just click my knob to confirm the alert, but when I…

"Categories" issue in app / AA
Tapping the Where to? search field brings up another Where to? search filed, under which it shows the "Saved" "Gas" etc. menu. This menu of "Categories" is badly organized/sequenced: seems to me that during a drive the most important order of locations would be "Gas" "Parking" perhaps "EV Charging" and "Hotels", followed by Food Drive-thru Coffee Groceries Medical care Pharmacies, and finally Shopping and Parks. The fact that in Android Auto only the first of those categories show compounds the problem. Suggestion: have a more logical sequence and show all of them in AA, and/or let the user arrange them…

GPS availability recheck
When connected to Android Auto while phone's GPS is not turned on, Waze does not recognize, that GPS is turned on later and it is needed to disconnect from Android Auto and connect again. I would appreciate if Waze could somehow re-check GPS availability. Button, touch, time period...
Typical case: GPS is turned off in the phone. It is turned on automatically by the routine when phone detects car's bluetooth or wifi. When Waze starts earlier then GPS is turned on, it is impossible to use it. Thank you.2 votes -
No cambia modo noche en automático
La aplicación es muy buena, pero desde hace un tiempo no se cambia a modo oscuro ajustes esta en automático y por la noche, lo he probado también por el modo según teléfono y tampoco, en el teléfono si que cambia, pero en el coche no. Y hace dos semanas cuando supero el limite de velocidad lo marca en pantalla pero el sonido dejó de funcionar. Me avisa de radares en casi todos los sitios por voz y en pantalla pero los de la A7 solo por pantalla y no por voz. Repito me gusta esta aplicación.

Relocate speed trap notifications in Android Auto
When navigating a route on Waze for Android Auto, speed trap notifications overlap with the distance and time-to-destination information. This is a problem because in large cities we have speed traps with very short distances, which means that one of the main pieces of information is usually hidden from the driver. I suggest relocating these notifications so that the time to destination is always visible.

Half-screen display on Android Auto
Is itbpossible to optimise the half-screen display on Android Auto to show the key direction information? At the moment the road names trail off if they're too long while there are things like the exit numbers that are in green aesthetic boxes taking up a lot of unnecessary space.
Would be nice to also have the pop-up notification shortcuts to "Home" or "Work" or a chosed Saved Place like Google Maps so I can start on my journey more effectively.

Fix the phone overheating issue
Let me explain the background on this. I've been happily using Waze with AA in my car for several years. All of a sudden, mid Feb 2024, my phone is overheating, sometimes before I even leave my driveway! I added a utility to my phone to troubleshoot and what I discovered is atrocious. This started right around Feb 19th. Whenever I have Waze running in the car, Google Maps is also running in background. If I use Google Maps to navigate, the phone doesn't overheat and Waze doesn't open either. I am already in the Beta group for Android Auto,…

automatic Day night mode
On previous version was working perfectly. On sunset the night mode was being changed normally. Now the night mode must be forced manually even the automatic mode is enable. I recommend only use the time instead the dim car function because the screen on dash doesn't have the capability to check if my headlights are on. Why something so easy the apps do it complicated?

move hazard alert button
The hazard alert icon is in the lower left corner of the screen on my android auto waze screen. This results in taking my eyes off the road to reach it across the dash. If it were relocated to the lower left corner of android auto screen it would facilitate easier and safer access.

Fix user interface and make it look like how it does on apple car play or on android phones
So since roughly April when waze adapted to the new android auto split screen update also known as coolwalk waze has looked terrible and nothing like how it use to look or looks on android phones and apple carplay. It's just a bunch of black boxes and buttons. Being someone that uses waze more than more than 12+hrs a day. It would be nice. If you guys revert the current user interface to how it is on the phones and or how it looks on apple car play

Please write an option to move or change the speed size. to customize the screen.I bought a car with android auto.

Modo oscuro
Anteriormente waze dejaba que el modo oscuro fuese automatico al encender las luces del coche ( por ejemplo al pasar por un tunel) ahora sólo existe la opción de activado, desactivado o al anochecer (a partir de las 21h). Google maps permite la opcion de elegir modo oscuro a través del estado del coche (luces encendidas o apagadas). Es una muy buena opción que hemos perdido.
