Sorry if there's a post for this already that I can't find but is there a way to prevent/stop/disable banner notifications from OTHER apps w
Disable all iPhone notifications while using waze to drive, iPhone notifications are distracting while driving and the driver is sometimes forced to remove the iPhone notifications while they are driving which is very unsafe

Speed up the opening page
App lacks responsiveness when first open. This has gotten worst over time.
When open. I want to select or enter location, but WAZE is none responsive “tapping on screen has no effect”. This all happens during initial entry.

Stop route button in landscape mode
Why is there no stop route button in landscape mode? It doesn't seem like to be a wise idea to not have all the same user interfaces as you do in portrait mode.

More set locations
add the option to add more set destinations that are interchangeable for things like school or a second or third workplace.
trying to scroll through while driving to have to find my school as my set workplace is inconvenient when i have to also need a workplace but having to scroll through all my past drives to get to my workplace/very common destinations is quite annoying to do while driving or even at a red light

Phone Charging Indication while navigating with app
It would be great to have an icon on the map display indicates that your phone is charging or plugged in while navigating with the waze app. There have been several times while driving and my phone was accidentally not correctly seated in the car charging cradle. I was navigating on battery power and the only indication was when I received a low battery warning notification from the phone OS. This can be very inconvenient when going on long drives or a safety concern when in unfamiliar areas or if one is stranded and the phone has no or low…

My "home" and "work" saved addresses used to always be above all other recently used addresses. Why isn't this happening anymore?
My "home" and "work" saved addresses used to always be above all other recently used addresses. Why isn't this happening anymore? Once I enter any other address, home and work are bumped down. I drive to several places a day, so this is very annoying. And I do NOT go to the office every day.

On Android the "report an issue" isn't available
I tried to report a freeway entrance closure, but the "tapping of arrows" wasn't working.. when i tried to do it.
After finding how to report the issue.. i found that the "report an issue" option wasn't an option in settings as described in the response to the Waze support email i sent.

Improve vertical UI on iPhone
Please fix the vertical user interface on iPhone! It is a complete mess, with large blacked out areas unnecessarily blocking the useful map space, therefore limiting our map vision and app experience, also the shortcuts or pop-ups are difficult to reach/click. Moreover, it doesn’t show a green line when entering part of the road under avg speed radar control. It should be an easy fix, just look at the carplay version, or maybe take ideas from google or apple maps. I am literally switching to other map providers because I have a terrible experience of using waze in vertical mode.

1-3 physical button for dashboard mounting
I don’t want to use a screen interface to do my critical input reporting (roadside hazards, police). Nor do I want to use voice, which is messy and impractical when traveling with several people in the car. The ideal solution (IMO) would keep people from shifting their eyes to a screen or using their voice in scenarios where they have multiple people (ie kids!) in the car.
Instead, I would love to see either Waze offer a programmable hardware button set that we can map the most important actions to the buttons for easy tactile reporting. If Waze doesn’t want…

App issue iPad Pro 12.9
The app doesn’t center the map when I use any sort of split screen on my iPad Pro 12.9. Even when it’s full screen it tends to push everything to the right with any view.

Waze App - Landscape/Horizontal Mode - Time, Mobile Signal & Battery%.
Hi.
When you switch from Vertical mode to Horizontal, the time, mobile signal/service and battery % disappears from behind the map.
It would be great to have this also for this mode so we can see the current time rather than just the ETA alongside the other icons.
Thanks!

Waze app horn
I don't think the Waze app's horn is necessary.
If the sound is played as a prank, there is a risk of being surprised and causing an accident.I would like the function to be stopped.1 vote -
On iPhone 15 Pro Max, text takes up far too much of the display in landscape mode.
My idea would be to have the option of splitting the display in two when in landscape mode, with the map on the right taking up the full vertical space available, and the directions, ETA and other info on the left. Or vice versa.

june update
Hi,
Could you explain the decision behind the latest update which moved all of the buttons to the far top right corner on the Android Auto/Apple head unit screen. If you're in an American car you have to reach across your entire head unit to hit them. This is dangerous and less intuitive than the previous version that had them in the bottom left (closest to the driver). Very poor decision by the Waze staff.1 vote -
Allow access to all report types through phone interface when connected to car
The Carplay and Android Auto interfaces have been lacking critical reporting features for YEARS. There has been no movement on the part of Waze development or Waze Admin to correct this glaring oversight. Since we can't get buttons added to the vehicle screens, you should have the phone screen pop up with all report options instead of saying Waze has to be disconnected.
The current system is extremely unsafe and represents a potential liability to Waze/Google if a user is to crash while trying to make a report in an unsafe manner.

Navigation avoid freeway is buried too deep add a choice for both to appear in routes as in Los Angeles always getting on and off freeway
Navigation is buried now I need to drive street or freeway all the time. Have a choice for freeway and street routes to appear when starting the app going back and forth is cumbersome and difficult if I need to leave freeway. Or bring choice to one click instead of three or four.

I also want to point out this setting can also potentially miscalculate traffic flows. A few days back, during heavy rain, waze was showing
I want to point outthat vehicle type setting can potentially miscalculate traffic flows. A few days back, during heavy rain, waze was showing the route to be congested, when in fact traffic was smooth flowing, albeit at a slightly slower speed due to heavy rain showers.
In Malaysia, when it rains, motor cyclists take shelter under flyovers and bridges. Therefore, if their waze was on, it would make your app think traffic is at a standstill.
Another issue with motorcycles is, in Malaysia, Lane Splitting is not an offence, and most times, during slow traffic, motorcyclists travel at much higher…
