Driving directions on virtual cockpit
Hey Wazers, I have found out, that when you use Apple Maps app through CarPlay, it is able to transfer information about next driving direction (for example "in 100m turn right" and an arrow) to the control unit of my car and it then shows it to me on my virtual cockpit. Since anothe iOS app can do this, I hope others should be able to, arent they? It will be really good to implement this...

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!

Why won’t the maps allow me to cross the dartford tunnel/ QE2 bridge
It won’t let me go through the tunnel or over the bridge. I have clicked allow the dart charge as an exemption but it makes no difference. Ive deleted it and re-downloaded it but it doesn’t work.

CarPlay Instrument Cluster Support
Apple CarPlay has started to support instrument clusters (Display behind the steering wheel), however so far it only supports Apple Maps. Developers have said this is available for apps like Waze to utilize, but you guys would have to update it to support that. I was hoping you guys could push this update as it would be very convenient and helpful. Currently using CarPlay on a Land Rover with the latest Pivi system. Thank you!

Customize your Waze map!!!

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

Virtual cockpit and android auto - improved turn by turn signs and sugestions in VC
When using Virtual Cockpit in VW group cars I can have waze or google maps turn by turn indications displayed in the middle of the virtual cockpit screen, only the next turn. Google maps shows indications correctly for roundabouts, u turns or straight left/right but waze indications in the center screen are all messed up, although the notification on phone and the next turn on the central screen with android auto is displayed corectly

Stop Taking over Car Audio in CarPlay
It is extremely annoying when Waze opens on car play that it changes my audio source to the CarPlay as well. It’s so annoying that I have gone back to using Google or Apple Maps exclusively, as they do not do this.

The "Keep Waze always on display" no longer available on Android phone (it worked for a while). Why is it gone? Google Maps allows this.
The "Keep Waze always on display" is no longer available on my Android phone (it was working for a while). Why is it gone? I want to see the navigation screen by waking up my phone but without having to unlock it (which is dangerous while driving). Google Maps does this, and Google owns Waze.

State line
When crossing into a different state it would be nice to receive an audible alert and/or a pop up notification that you have crossed into a new state like Google maps does. When on a long road trip sometimes we don’t know what state we have crossed into and it would be helpful to get notified.

Add the google map feature: swiping direction box shows next steps
In google maps on Android Auto, swiping on the box showing the next turn shows the next step. If you keep swiping you scroll thru the steps. This feature needs to be added to Waze.

Increase the number of polygons on the map
In Live-map the map is well drawed & high level detailed. But when i see same region in Waze-client its not looks so fine, because at least half of polygons was optimized. Its makes Waze-client looks badly & not so attractive.

Add a general route view to Waze in Android Automotive (AAOS) in cars with two screens available (similar to Google Maps for Android Auto)
Add the possibility to see the general route view in the main car screen, while having the navigation route view in the screen behind the steering wheel. In this way, it is possible to make use of the two screens in the cars - one showing the navigation, the other showing the overall route (as it is available on Google maps for Android Auto). Thanks

mapless mode
how about a screen that just displays the speed and any nearby alerts (range user selectable) for when we're just driving and don't need the GPS? This could cut down on data (and battery) usage by not fetching maps, but still let us provide data back to the system.

Apple Carplay waze en google maps
Het zou goed zijn om te weten in welke straat we aan het rijden zijn doormiddel van een apparte vak te tonen !
Ook zou het leuk zijn om te weten wat de volgende afslag wordt en welke de volgende straat is en of kruising !
Het tonen van verkeersborden zou ook Ideaal zijn ( eenrichtingsverkeer, verbod om in te halen, voorrangsweg, ... etc ) !

Please, remove this new feature that gives me PTSD from Google maps, where you have to tell us to go straight first, then turn left or right
Please, remove this new feature that gives me PTSD from Google maps, where you have to tell us to go straight first, then turn left or right, like obviously! It's so confusing and I've lost my way a couple times with this new update. It was more straightforward the way it was before.
