  1. Correct Multi window (currently pauses)

    Can you please allow waze to work correctly in multi window mode.Android 7.1.1 if you have Waze open in a multi-window configuration, it wouldn't actually work as expected. As long as it had focus and was the last app you interacted with, Waze would work as expected, updating your location and orientation on the map. But if you interacted with another app in multi-window, Waze would stop updating until you go back to it.

    Similar issue with Google maps which just got fixed:

  2. electric vehicle mode germany

    Der electric vehicle mode ist bisher nur in der USA und Kanada verfügbar. Europa wird schon bald signifikant steigende Zulassungszahlen für BEV ausweisen, Google Maps hat Ladestationen schon als POI ausgerollt. Auf geht's, Waze, das schafft ihr locker.

  5. Waze on cluster screen over Carplay

    Apple Maps and Google Maps are able to display a map on the cluster screen when connected via Apple Carplay.
    Can an option be implemented for Waze to do the same thing?
    Thanks!

  7. Faster Voice Navigation Cadence

    She speaks much slower than, say, Google Maps navigation. Speeding the prompts' delivery minimizes interruptions to other audio you might be listening to.

  8. Adapter le trajet et la vitesse pour la conduite accompagnée

    Bonjour, pourquoi ne pas ajouter une fonction incluant la conduite accompagnée pour éviter les routes les plus difficiles et modifier les limitations de vitesse en fonction de la vitesse maximum. Par exemple : lorsque la limitation est de 130 km/h, la limitation de vitesse pour la conduite accompagnée est de 110km/h.

  9. Congestion color code

    I recommend the color of the road be shown based on the current speed motorist are experiencing; potentially if traveling at or above the speed limit, green, 10% below orange, 20% below yellow, and 30% or lower red.

  10. Zoom - integrated car displays (Android Auto)

    The zoom functionality is awful currently when using Android Auto with an in-car display. Google maps allows easy zooming using the rotatable knob (identical and in line with volume on a VW). Can this become a feature for Waze?? It's so distracting and dangerous trying to zoom when driving, a quick turn either way (like Google maps has) will be much better.

  12. expose intents

    for all clients expose an API

    for Android expose:

    • intents
    • broadcast intents
    • application shortcuts

    for the slightly savvier user this allows accelerated navigation by macro (Tasker, Llama, OmniDroid, et al)

    API allows for similar macro- or automation apps on iOS (ipad, iPhone), windows mobile, other platforms surely

    instead of

    ° load waze
    ° click or swipe to open navigate to UI
    ° search for address
    ° select match
    ° go
    ° pick route

    the macro app could accomplish this in

    ONE click

    this is employing merely one of a panoply of time saving waze measures

    add to…

  13. Waze needs a proper pinch to zoom

    Waze needs a proper pinch to zoom/unzoom. It really bugs me so much that I can not do that when it is a basic function on most Sat-Nav's these days.Little Plus and minus symbols are like something from the days of the first navigation retail units.
    i'm going to go back to Google Maps for now and check back every few weeks in the hope that it is implemented.
    If you are reading this and feel the same way as me, please make yourself heard and maybe we can get this changed.

  15. Friends

    Hi!
    I think it's time to add new methods to add friends in the app.
    Not everyone has Facebook so I thought, how about using these services too?

    • Whatsapp (Chat Link)
    • Google
    • Email (Link)

    They are methods used in millions of apps. Hope Waze adapts to these systems soon!

  18. stop asking for access to my contacts!

    Google, you're supposed to not be evil. But demanding access to all my contacts before letting me use the app is evil. Stop it.

    And making me add an email address to make a comment is just an asshole move, which is what the contact requirement is, incidentally.

  19. Show border line on map

    Since the corona virus crossing borders in Europe isn't that easy as before. So it would be nice if I could see the border line clearly on the map. A thick red line for example (like google maps) or something similar would be neat.

    It also makes things easier to navigatie if you know whether you entering a different country when planning your route. In Europe, this sometimes could be the case.

  20. Make Bluetooth connection the same as a Google Maps (not a phone call) and no ads covering of the route in progress

    Thanks for writing back.

    It’s just hard To use Waze when (ads) they cover the route it makes it difficult to visually see.

    And then the way Waze’s Bluetooth connection works Diles my phone number instead of just connecting to the car itself.

    I understand you’re a separate thing than Google maps but being google product I thought maybe you would share that technology.

    Hope you’re having a good week
