Show remaining KM / Miles till next turn on the "Always on display" screen.
Most of the time, we drive for many Miles / KM with no change, and this screen remains on for a long time-wasting our battery + burning the screen (which happened to me with two devices already) + it prevents us from touching the phone every second, safety first!
My suggestion is to add the remaining KM / Miles to the "Always on display" screen (the feature that shows the time and date when the screen is off), which most of the smartphones have already, a small line of text that shows only the remaining KM / Miles +…1 vote -
Show bridge height
Not once, I've heard of trucks getting into accidents by hitting a bridge that is too low to the vehicles height.
Why not display the bridges on the route and their height to prevent those type of accidents?129 votes -

Turn by turn (next turn) panel too big
Is there a way to make turn by turn (next turn) smaller in landscape mode. Takes up to much of display. Possibly be able to hide it until you are within a certain distance from the turn. (This is on a Note 3)

It would be helpful if the current speed and the permitted speed could be displayed larger in the top right corner of the carplay display,
It would be helpful if the current speed and the permitted speed could be displayed larger in the top right corner of the carplay display, or if their size could be adjusted on the carplay display. Often, both speeds are difficult to read because they're too small.

Increase the duration of display of the confirmation of an event
Good morning,
The display that asks if the event is still present should last longer.
Indeed, the question disappears just when you arrive at the event and it is better to drive, especially if it is a danger, than to answer the question.The ideal is to have the question still displayed much longer after the event concerned.

Display destination address
It is critical that you roadmap displaying the destination address, instead of 'unknown address'. It's poor not to have this as a default feature for a map app. Dissappointing that this has not been prioritised.

Enable speed and associated icons to be placed on the left or the right side of the navigation screen at drivers discretion
Currently speed icons only display on right side of navigation screen. I drive a right hand drive car and speed icons are obscured by steering wheel and indicator stalks. It would be nice to have option to display the icons on the left or the right side of navigation screen at driver's discretion to facilitate clearer display depending on car navigation screen installed position.

Display Feature Removed
Recently, my phone did an update that removed a feature that was very helpful during my commute to work. Where the ETA is displayed, I used to be able to simply tap that and an overview would pop up showing me if anything was being reported during my drive, like traffic and hazards. I would request that you please readd that feature to the app. Thank you.

revised location for hazard reporting control

ETA Only, Time Remaining Only or Both.
In the Settings there should be a feature to have the Main Screen show ''ETA Only'', ''Time Remaining Only'' or Both.
As it is now, the display switches between the two and the user has to keep looking at the screen to get the results they need.
This is NOT SAFE!
As noted on the Android Market, a lot of users want it to display just one or the other, not the schizoid way it is now.

Bug in display of upcoming turns in iOS 15.8
You guys broke the list of upcoming turns in one of the recent upgrades. Instead of showing the upcoming turns, the display shows the next turn at the top of the list (as normal), but the rest of the list contains prior turns and suggestions. I was only able to clear it by exiting the app, re-opening it, and choosing the option to continue the previous trip. This is extremely confusing and dangerous. Please fix it.

Speed limit and gps speed widgets
Would be very helpful to be able to increase the size of the widgets and select where the display them. I only have a 7 inch screen and cannot see them. Widgets should be on driver's side not passenger side.

Display Saved Time when Waze changes the route in case of traffic
The idea would be to be able to accept or deny the route change when Waze decides there is a best route than the current one.
In other words, let us accept or not to switch to the new route depending on haow much tilme is saved. For me saving 1 to 5 minutes on a new route is not always necessary.6 votes -
Better CarPlay display
Dear Waze Team,
I’d like to suggest a small but meaningful UI improvement to enhance user experience.
Currently, the box displaying the estimated arrival time, remaining minutes, and distance is located in the bottom left corner of the screen. Unfortunately, this area often overlaps with alerts and notifications, especially when there are multiple incidents or warnings, making it difficult to quickly view key travel information.
Would it be possible to relocate this box to the top right corner of the screen or offer customizable placement in the settings? This change would greatly improve visibility and reduce distraction while driving.
