Alternate Route
Is it possible to allow the alternate route button to be pressed while driving. When I press it, the app seems to glitche saying it's not safe to calculate while moving and I have to close the app and re-open. I think this is a bug.

Using Waze with Android Auto and large screens, it
Using Waze with Android Auto and large screens, The button to choose between different routes is far away from the driver. This causes the gaze to be diverted from the road in an attempt to locate the button while reaching out a hand away from the steering wheel. I suggest placing the knob close to the driver's seat

Nearest petrol station on the driven route
During active navigation, on android auto, when I search for petrol station I shows me the nearest one as the crow flies, but not the nearest one on my route. (As does google maps do.)
Sometimes it shows me a petrol station 2km away, but to get there i need to drive 20km, then drive of the highway, and drive 20km back.
Also zooming and moving of the map would be nice while viewing the petrol stations, to see if they are a viable option.1 vote -
multiple navigation issues with recent update
- The cancel navigation button is completely unresponsive during a trip when i need to change the destination. I have to press it at least 15-30 times for it to take effect and cancel the navigation, sometimes cancelling and registering the tap on the screen as a tap on a location from a drop down list of recent destinations (which is not the desired change). I then have to spend another bunch of taps to cancel that navigation to input the correct destination.
- After tapping on a destination and selecting "Go Now", having to press "Go Now" a second time confirming…

2026 BZ/Solterra Stop Route Issue
There is an issue when using Waze with Android Auto in a 2026 Toyota BZ or 2026 Subaru Solterra. The X to stop an active your doesn't respond. All other areas and buttons on the screen respond. I have to use voice command to cancel the route. The physical screen area works when the X to cancel the route isn't there, i.e. select saved destination still in Waze. The X to stop your doesn't work in full, 2/3, or when 1/3 of the screen.

Full HUD integration for VW Multivan T7 (Navigation Metadata & Lane Guidance).
Using a VW Multivan T7 (2025) with Android Auto, the Head-Up Display (HUD) does not show precise navigation data from Waze. While Google Maps displays dynamic arrows, lane guidance, and correct roundabout exits on the windshield, Waze only sends basic or generic icons.
Please implement full support for the NavigationTemplate and mapTemplate in Android Auto to allow lane assist and detailed turn-by-turn info to be projected on vehicle HUDs.

Ah, je vois ! On reprend l'analogie des pistes de ski pour expliquer la complexité des routes (les endpoints) de l'API. C’est vrai que c'est beaucoup plus parlant pour visualiser la difficulté du code.

Navigation distance decimal points not showing on digital gauge cluster in 2026 Subaru Crosstrek through Android Auto
On the 2026 Subaru Crosstrek (and I'm assuming other newer Subarus with the digital gauge cluster), the turn by turn navigation display in the corner of the cluster doesn't show decimal points on the distance to the next turn. This leads to the display just showing "1 miles" then "0 miles" until you get close enough for it to display in feet. This does work correctly on Google Maps, showing 1.1, 1.0, 0.9, 0.8, etc. so this does seem to be technically possible. Hopefully this can be looked at in the future

Waze navigation off on Android auto
When using Android auto, I need to pick up my phone and turn waze off on my phone to get Waze to not display on Android auto anymore WHILE I AM DRIVING! , so very dangerous and illegal in Holland to hold a phone in your hand while driving, why can't I just press a button on the display in my car (Android auto) to shut Waze off or at least stop the Waze navigation, with all other navigation apps i can shut the navigation down with a button on my car display, (it's not that you shut the app…

Disabled forced turn by turn navigation on Android Auto when Waze is NOT the active app
Last year's update was unnecessary and locks Waze on your phone to turn by turn instructions, REGARDLESS of whether or not it's the active app on Android Auto.
That just makes no sense and users have so many different use cases.
My mounted phone (legal to have a phone mounted if being used for navigation in my jurisdiction and many others), is in a much safer line of sight than the dash in my car.
Another case of when product designers decide what's best for users instead of listening to feedback.

Fix the north up bugs
If I've selected North up, I always want North up. Why are there always modes where north up disappears? For instance when I hit the home button on my console (2024 BMW) the Waze map decides to go direction up
