automotive
Hi,
when can we expect Waze be compatible on the Android Automotive OS (so not Android Auto, but Android Automotive as the new OS for the Polestar 2 car).
thanks for you reply601 votesWe plan to work on Android Automotive in the near future. In the meantime, make sure you’ve got the latest version of Waze for all the latest features.

Both Android and IPhone users on the same map
While driving with a friend who had an iPhone5 (I have a Samsung S3), we noticed that our maps were not showing the same wazers or reports. Displaying both will give more accurate reports and be more fun! I want to see all reports and friends, not just those on Android!

Mute navigation during phone call.
When making or taking phone calls using bluetooth, waze navigation prompts often interrupt me. The person on the other end of the line can't hear the prompt, but it means either I miss what they're saying, or my train of thought is interrupted mid-sentence.
It would be useful for the client to auto-mute during a phone call.
2,370 votesThank you for this suggestion. As you may already know, Waze supports the option to mute during calls. To set that, go to Settings > Voice & sound and toggle Mute during calls.

Auriculares
Me gustaría que los que utilizamos el medio de transporte como la moto podamos utilizar la aplicación con los Auriculares o el Bluetooth, sin necesidad de tener el celular en la mano cosa que sería muy peligroso para uno como conductor.
Espero mejoren este GRAN inconveniente para los transportadores en moto.42 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Turn off Speedometer in new Android Auto
The new Android Auto Waze interface is very busy. Forcing us to have the Speed and Speedometer always on just adds to the clutter. I have the setting disabled in the app, why doesn't it honor that setting in Android Auto.

Voice Input and HOV Options in Android Auto
Allow for voice input (for stops/searches) while driving and give options for HOV travel while in Android Auto. Having to pull over while on a freeway to add a stop if it is not within your most recent stops is really frustrating and dangerous.

Trip Suggestions on Android Auto Waze
When I bring up Waze on my car's dash screen with Android Auto, Waze displays a list of trip suggestions. This only started happening within the last month, prior to that it did not do this.
I would like to disable the auto-display of trip suggestions when Waze on Android Auto starts up. There should be a user selectable setting to do this.
I find it really annoying since 99% of the time I do not need Waze guidance to drive where I want to go, and manually closing the list each time I start the app just wastes my…

Portrait Display for Waze on Android Auto for Vertical Screens Like Volvo
Because Waze/Android Auto does not have a portrait mode setting, Android Auto puts Waze on the bottom third of the display on all Volvos from '21 and back [1000s of Volvos out there]. This makes Waze almost too small to use, especially when those horrible ads pop-up and takeover what little real estate Android Auto gives Waze.

Android Samsung galaxy note 3 multi window feature.
Would love to use it with other apps. This limits me to only use one app. With Google maps I can listen to YouTube or a music app while I see and hear directions. Thanks.

Add Road Closure Reporting to Android Auto
I’d like to raise this again because it’s a major issue. A report was already made last year about adding Road Closure Reporting to Android Auto and it gained hundreds of votes and comments, yet there’s still been no visible progress or update.
Right now, Android Auto users are stuck driving into the same closed roads multiple times because we can’t report closures directly from the interface. Using the phone is unsafe (and illegal without a holder), and even when pulling over to try, the route often recalculates before the closure can be reported.
This feature already exists in the…

Android Auto Feature Parity
Android Auto is lacking a lot of features as opposed to the mobile phone app.
Many of them are already requested here, but I just see Ella (Waze team) marking them all as "NOT RIGHT NOW", without much extra info as to why not. ("Great thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.")
@Ella please take the time to think them over a bit more critically, some are just absurd why they are not going to be implemented.
For example one critical missing feature is reporting is road closures, triggering a reroute without that road.…1 vote -
Switch map and directions on android devices to left or right
My car is a left hand drive vehicle however while using the app on an android headunit the directions are on the left side of the screen while the map is on the right hand side of the screen which is very hard to see. I suggest an option if your car is a left hand drive vehicle to swap these two and revert back if it is a right hand drive vehicle.
