Missing the first part of the directions when connected to car bluetooth
With a previous update this started happening in one of my cars. The first audio that came out of the car speakers would be several seconds into the directions so you would hear for instance "turn right". You missed "in 1/4 mile". I just updated to ios14 and my other car is now doing it. It's disappointing Waze has chosen to ignore this issue. I was an early adopter but will be looking to Apple Maps in hopes of not having this issue. Waze is losing one of it's champions.

Option to use Bluetooth HSP or A2DP
Waze uses bluetooth A2DP for navifation instructions. But a lot of car sets only uses bluetooth HSP. There are apps that convert A2DP to HSP but these apps always mute the car radio. So it would be great, if Waze can send navidation instructions via HSP to a bluetooth car set. So it will mute the radio, give the navigation instruction and then unmute the radio. I think that would be a big feature, cause google maps can't do this right now.

Feature Request: Co-Drive Functionality
Every year, I go on vacation with my family and friends, and we always rely on the Waze app, which has been incredibly helpful for all of us.
I’d like to suggest a new feature that could enhance the experience for groups traveling in multiple cars: a Co-Drive functionality. The idea is to allow users who are part of the same travel group to see each other’s locations on the map during the trip. This would be especially useful if one vehicle makes an unplanned stop—at a gas station or store, for example—so the rest of the group can…

Allow viewing on mobile while connected to android auto
When my phone is connected to Android Auto, viewing the app on the phone is disabled but not all features are enabled on the car display which are often needed. I cannot change my vehicle type (car/motorcycle), I cannot share my ride, if I am not currently navigated I cannot change alert settings.

Wrong direction
A mapping service is directing drivers the wrong way on a one way street (maybe waze). The location is in Vineyard Haven, Ma. The street is William between Church and Center. That section is one way heading north. Cars using a mapping service are being directed the wrong way on that one way street. Please see if you have a flaw in your dataset.

Please extend the over speed alarm tone as it is too short when using bluetooth phone connect setting
When using "Bluetooth Phone" connection on Audi the connection time is so long that the short overspeed alarm tone is not played over the car speakers, all that happens is the cars entertainment system is turned down and dead air is played.

Waze bluetooth-Kopplung
Mich stört an Waze, dass Waze sich im Auto zuerst mit meinem bluetooth Hörgerät verbindet und nicht mit den Auto Lausprechern.
Um das zu korrigieren muss ich zuerst das winzige bluetooth-Symbol auf dem iPhone treffen, anschließend auf den Knopf Tonausgabe tippen, um dort die Senke auszuwählen. Das ist viel zu umständlich!
Bitte verbessern!I'm dissapointed by Waze that ist couples in my car first with my new hearing aid and not with my cars loudspeakers. Trying to change this, I need to click on a too tiny bluetooth button, then to click on another button for adressing the sound sink…

HOV depending on people in car
As you plan a trip, if there are HOV lanes, the app should ask how many people are in the car so that you can be directed to HOV lanes if you pass the requirements for those lanes. Thx :)

allow for users to pin a point for fake police
In my area there police have been placing unmanned police cars at the side of the road as if using radar. These get marked as police and people really slow down. Which is a good thing, but sometimes people slow down under the speed. Please allow for a way to mark these as police decoys or something.

2 ideas for routing
Have an option to base economic routes on the cars MPG. It would basically be googles econ route but made tailored to your MPG rather than on car average. Another thing would be to add traffic lights and stop signs to account for on the trip.

In Chatham township stop directing cars to turn onto spring st from Lafayette Ave instead of staying on Lafayette until southern Blvd to make a right. You are directing too many cars onto quiet residential streets- please keep the traffic on the main roads in residential neighborhoods- the speed limit on the quiet streets is 25 vs 35 on southern blvd

Hgv mode
I am new to the HGV industry and like many of us it costs a lot to own a satnav. Many of us use Waze and have done for many years it would be good to incorporate a HGV function mode into the app where you can create a profile and have HGV mode and this can help drivers going out buying satnavs and making the Waze app more effective for overall as it can be limited to just cars. HGV’s need to know height restrictions width restrictions and weight limits of roads but this would be a great…

editing maps as a non-user
I don't have a car so I don't have the WAZE app. I want to prevent cars from entering our cul-de-sac street and want to edit your map, but I cannot because I am not a user. Please could you send this info to the correct person/ team. (I also cannot log in via google or facebook, there seems to be a bug)
Europe - Belgium - Brussels - Laken:
You cannot enter Rue Tivoli from Rue Andree de Jongh, there are blocks on the road at that crosspoint. These blocks are currently temporary, but will become permanent.3 votesAdminElla (Waze Team) (Admin, Waze) responded

Share route from car screen
Add a button on the car screen to share route with a pre-selected favorite contact.
I only share route with my wife, but I do this everyday. Currently I must start and share the route on my phone before Android Auto connects to the car wirelessly. A simple button to share to one contact using one app (eg: Whatsapp) would be very useful.
