Opening Music Controls in Landscape obscures the speed limit and speedometer
When using the app in landscape, opening the Music Controls will open on the left hand side, which then obscures the Speed Limit indicator and some of the speedometer.
It would be much better if it moved the speed limit to be down next to the speedometer, and didn't obscure either. Or, even better, if it moved the speed limit and the speedometer to the upper right corner!
Or better still, let us choose where to put these UI elements so we can improve information density and readability! As a motorcycle user, I only use this app in landscape…

Please fix the audio player overlapping the speedometer in landscape more
When in landscape and the audio player is on, it obstructs the speedometer which causes me to touch my phone will driving thus making it a distraction.

Let the developers use Waze also in landscape to see their faults
When using Waze in landscape: if you touch the search icon in the lower left corner you get immidiatly your keyboard, blocking the short list with frequently used places... That's rubbish.
If developers would use Waze themselves in Landscape for 2 whole days I bet there would be a huge improvement on using Waze in landscape
(Or let the user decide how big the fonts are or make dpi settings user configurable )
Make Free floating icons (user movable) would also be a huge advantage.

Make the "speed camera" warning smaller in landscape
Hi :-)
I've been using Waze for a long time and I enjoy using it a lot.However lately the bar that shows arrival time has grown, leaving less space for the map.
That's not the worst though. The worst is that, when nearing a speed camera or speed enforcement zone, the warning covers almost half the screen, pushing the speedometer behind the directions. As you can maybe surmise, I'd really like to be able to see how fast I'm going when nearing a speed camera.
I use the app in landscape because that's the least intrusive way to fix…

Warnings are blocked by route in landscape mode on iphone
when using waze on my iphone 6 in landscape mode, the top of the screen indicates where next exit is, etc. When a warning is received it appears behind the aforementioned route and the warning cannot be read in its entirety, so it is a guess it there is an obstruction, stalled car, police etc. This just happened within the last month.

PLEASE make my position on the map “centered” on my iPad screen in landscape mode!
While using the app in landscape mode my position on the map is always on the bottom right of the screen and not in the bottom “center” of the screen. I really love this app and all of its features, but I just can’t learn to live with it this way! It’s driving me insane to the point that I don’t even want to use the app at all and have been searching for other nav apps. I really want to use Waze but I just can’t stand the position being off centered the way it is. I just can’t…

Improve the layout of the Ready to Go? popup in landscape
In landscape orientation, the Friends section crowds out the much more important Go button.
I have no interest in the Friends functionality, so the space devoted to the friends notice and the Share button are completely wasted. The Routes and Go buttons could really stand to be bigger, so I can hit them while the phone is in its dock.
Where I drive, I often need to know which direction Waze wants me to go immediately; there's no long driveway or road that I have to travel no matter what.

Auto hide the my waze and where to in landscape mode
Surely there should be a way to auto hide the my Waze and where to bar in landscape mode like it does in portrait mode. It's such a shame it takes up so much room. Sometimes you don't want to type a destination in where your going and just want to have the updates.

Move vehicle back to the bottom center of the screen in landscape mode
I use an iPad mini in the dash of my car and the arrow representing the car and the highlighted route is on right 1/3 of the screen which cuts off the right side of the map. I like to see the streets to see if there is a better route in certain situations.
Having an option to have the arrow on the bottom center or bottom right/left would be a good compromise.

Allow option to turn on old landscape mode. This new mode sucks and takes up too much of the space and often gets in the way of road.

Move compass lock icon when in Landscape mode
The compass lock icon is hidden behind the contacts icon when the phone is on its side. Please adjust where these icons are located so that I can lock/unlock North!

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.

Show distance of trajectory control zone
In portrait mode you can see how long the trajectory control still is but not in the landscape mode. I would like it if this would be added.
