New UI prevents sleep after starting a drive
Sleep button used to be accessible via the bottom left menu. Now it’s inside the top right new UI which is not on screen (not clickable) when a drive is started…
The UI changes need to be better tested for usability because this is frustrating and not needed…3 votes -
Knowing the direction of the closure
Hi>
Why isn't the closure displayed in the app the same way it is on the Waze map editor?
We often encounter misleading reports where users believe the entire street is closed.
I believe it would be beneficial to add small arrows to the traffic closure, similar to those in the map editor, to indicate the direction of the closure.thanks!
3 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Plan a Drive Functionality
As many people are noting, the relocation of the Plan a drive feature in the cheeseburger menu is awful. In addition to that, if you make a change to anything within Plan a Drive, it then kicks you all the way back out so you have to click on the menu cheeseburger again, then click on Plan a Drive again, to do the next thing in Plan a Drive. Who thought this anti-intuitive, clunky process was good for users????

Close app on iPhone.
Go back to the old system of closing the app. Like many other people, I use my phone for directions and the recent changes are so annoying that I’m seriously thinking of removing the app. I could live with the annoyance of being automatically connected when I’m in my newer car via apple play - but now this is just backward to close the app via my iPhone.

Leave time on Home Screen
Whenever you plan a drive, always display the time to leave for the next planned drive(s) on the landing screen of waze. This already exists but the frequency of it being displayed on the Home Screen of the app seems random. Please consider having the leave time at a glance on the home screen whenever a drive is planned or allowing the user to toggle the box for always on, recommended on, or off. Thanks!

Revert your recent update
Your recent upgrade has brought my rating from 5 stars to 2 stars.... Did you test this??? Or just release it and cross your fingers. As someone with experience in software upgrades and testing I would have been sacked for the mess now masquerading as Waze. It wasn't broken so Why??

Change the colors when speeding
The dark red on dark gray is difficult to read when speeding. I needed to use Waze as a speedometer while in Canada (KPH not MPH). And it was often difficult to read the speed.

Current Update Moves Eyes Off Road
The new version works well with Android Auto Coolwalk, however: navigation buttons (i.e. routes) are now smaller and on the far top right corner, report button is now smaller and black and white instead of big and red. All this causes more eyes of the road, please review. Other than that like the work you're doing. Thanks!

search favourites function
It would be good to be able to perform a search/filter function for your saved favourites. If you have 30+ saved favourites it can be quite difficult to find what you want, a quick search function would be good I think.

Auto cancel the "Where to" and "My Waze" bars
When we use the map and do not choose a destination, the "Where to" and "My Waze" bars at the bottom of the screen - especially in the landscape position - occupy almost half of the screen, which makes it very difficult to read the map. They should disappear after a few seconds and reappear when you touch the screen. I would like to ask you to introduce this minor and very helpful modification.

Flipable destination and start
In the plan your drive area, if you could flip the destination and starting point it would be super handy

Why did you make it so difficult to schedule a trip for a future time? Please put the function back where it was.

Consider making UI change so Hazard reporting is faster and requires less scrolling
Make faster Hazard reporting by reducing scrolling. Make choices by a Tile interface so driver doesn't have to scroll so much. Touch screens are variable in their scrolling. Would be simpler.

Please make There/Not There notice different distinctive colours
Make it easier and faster to respond to hazard alerts. Less distraction for driver to respond. Safer.
