Static Zoom Level
It's very distracting as a driver to have the map constantly zooming in and out every time you change speed, or approach/depart an intersection. When a user change the zoom level, it's because that's where they want it.
There should be a toggle that sets the map to follow your location, but maintain the zoom level to wherever the user manually sets it.
It should also no longer follow your location if the entire route is on screen.

android auto - location of icons
It would be great if the location of icon is on the side of where the driver seated. For example, if Waze is used in USA, the icons should be on the left side of the screen. If waze is used in India, icons should be on the right side of the screen. If not all icons can be moved around, at least the speed and speed limit icons placement would be good enough. That way a driver do not have to reach farther for an action or look further to see the speed/speed limit.

BUG: Knob controls selection box skips around
My Mazda interacts with Android Auto via control selector knob rather than touch screen. When an alert pops up for police, it gives two options to pick from: not there or still there when I rotate my control knob to move the highlighted selection box over to one of those options, the system will automatically jump the selection box back to the default position up top before I can even make a choice. Please fix so the selection box stays where the user moves it to. It times out almost instantly.

Revert user interface android auto
New interface is unusable on non touch screen interfaces. There should be an option to change back. The left menu now obscures half the map, making it harder to see where you're going. Confirming obstructions is now impossible with a scroll wheel, as you scroll along the options by the time you notice the button is highlighted its skipped to the next button but you are then unable to reverse the scroll back to the option, you have to scroll forward through everything again. Trying to access the menus or report obstructions is also pretty impossible with the new interface…

Black buttons on Black backgrounds are terrible
Your recent Android Auto updates have been horrendous. Instead of having colorful, vibrant, easily identifiable buttons, everything is now pure black with headache-inducing white text. Black buttons overlay black menus, and the driver cannot distinguish between any of the controls without taking their eyes off the road for long periods. Controls are scattered around the screen in tiny black dots like a spilled bag of marbles. Waze is now a dangerous app to use. Bring back color!! Bring back black text on light backgrounds!! Bring back menu bars!! Or at the very least, let the user CHOOSE to have the…

If no route chosen, hide previous drives menu so i can see the map.
There is a menu of previous drives that pops up when Android Auto (using Waze) starts up. If I don't choose a destination on that menu (or, create a new destination) after I'm underway please minimize the previous drive destinations so I can see the map. This drive I don't need guidance, but would still like to see the map. Thanks

screen area usage is very poor. Bulky information boxes, too generous black margins - not much left for the map itself

colore percorso da seguire
Buon giorno, vorrei proporre un suggerimento, poter cambiare il colore del percorso da seguire ,quando è impostata una destinazione, attualmente è di colore viola, se si usa la mappa predefinita, e abbastanza ben visibile, ma se si usa la mappa chiamata “gli editor della mappa” il colore viola del percorso da seguire non si distingue bene tra i colori della mappa, io suggerirei di trovare un colore che spicca meglio usando questa mappa , o in alternativa sarebbe bello poter personalizzare il colore del percorso, così come posso scegliere il tipo icona auto, poter scegliere il colore del percorso tra…

After updating to 4.94.0.3 Waze is very difficult to navigate in Android Auto with a rotary knob (non-touch screen).
When using a car without a touch screen, it is extremely difficult to navigate the new interface. For example, the Cursor used to default to the "Pin" icon while in navigation. This was great because it allows you to quickly report Hazards and Police.
Now after the update, it defaults to the "Magnifying Glass" icon. This means you have to scroll past SEVEN, yes... 7, other icons to get the to "Pin" to report a hazard. I tried moving the cursor to the "Pin" Icon and leaving it there, but after a few seconds it defaults back to the Search…

Joystick map navigation is difficult to use on CoolWalk update
After the Coolwalk update, you introduced a new feature so we can navigate on the map using car controls. When using this feature with the car joystick (Mazda), isn't smooth, it's too laggy and difficult to use, making this awesome feature useless. Please see how Google Maps handles this. That works perfectly.

New UX in Android Auto is terrible
April 2023 changes to the UX are terrible.
- More complicated, and needs more clicks to get anywhere
- Initial suggestions don't include Work or Home, requiring extra fiddling to select them.
- Many more clicks to get to routine things like reporting traffic.
- There/Not There options for hazards are virtually unusable - it constantly pulls focus back to the search icon.
Also sometimes get nothing other than "Welcome to Waze" on the main part of the screen.

Roll back to last usable version (fixing voice command and display issues)
The recent update added the gimmicky split-screen feature at the expense of everything that made the app usable. Until you can fix the following, please roll back to the last non-coolwalk version:
• Google Assistant voice commands do not work
• Speed limit is too small to see
• "Time Remaining in drive" is missingI would also like you to rethink the decision of replacing all the icons with ugly little black pills, but that isn't really a technical problem in need of a fix.
