  1. Recenter car in landscape mode

    In landscape mode, the vehicle is to the far right of the screen. This HAS to be a bug. Not a suggestion. Please fix.

  2. Stop route button in landscape mode

    Why is there no stop route button in landscape mode? It doesn't seem like to be a wise idea to not have all the same user interfaces as you do in portrait mode.

  3. Re-arranging the waze application display for "landscape" screens

    On a 7" car display, which is a "landscape" display, the Waze application displays the "Next turn" box, including the turn description, on about a quarter of the screen, sometimes even larger. The Result is that the on-coming road map is covered by the box, and the "turn area" shows only at the last minute. For such a "landscape" display the screen display should be re-arranged so that the important part of the on-coming map shall not be hidden until the very last minute, similar to the standard "portrait" telephone display.

  4. Give us centered landscape mode

    I'd like for the vehicle icon to be in the center of the screen on landscape mode. Having it so far off to the side is infuriatingly dumb.

  5. iPhone4G - landscape mode not correct at time zero

    more of a bug really.
    If Waze is running before I rotate the phone then the switch to landscape mode works. If I launch Waze after rotating the phone (like I do when I snap the phone into my car mount before starting Waze) then the display is stuck sideways.

  6. More visibility in a landscape mode (tilted screen)

    Waze is great, I like to keep it running without any navigation / destination. In mobile's landscape mode (tilted screen) there is menu + search bar that takes about a half of the screen. Please make it as a pop up when touched or as a slider from the bottom/side of the screen. The visibility is close to none even with my 6.7" screen.

  7. Bottom menu on left or right in landscape mode

    When in landscape mode, top and bottom bars decrease the height of the interface a lot. Bottom bar should be on the left or on the right to have more height for the map

  9. Opening Music Controls in Landscape obscures the speed limit and speedometer

    When using the app in landscape, opening the Music Controls will open on the left hand side, which then obscures the Speed Limit indicator and some of the speedometer.

    It would be much better if it moved the speed limit to be down next to the speedometer, and didn't obscure either. Or, even better, if it moved the speed limit and the speedometer to the upper right corner!

    Or better still, let us choose where to put these UI elements so we can improve information density and readability! As a motorcycle user, I only use this app in landscape

  12. Landscape functionality and ongoing waze issues

    1. Never block speedometer including with photo request, sped limit reached, text box. Never!
    2. Return and always keep speedometer in bottom left corner - currently often blocked including when speed reached which increases chance of speeding (landscape use). Squish main screen and do not cover with limit reached warning.
    3. Adjustable text size and speedometer size independently. Shrink window for police and other notifications to show under content and have banner push up to shrink... currently banner pushed speedometer up which is blocked by directions s panel (landscape use).
    4. Allow AI camera report and via voice.
    5. Remove default route pop…

  15. Make the "speed camera" warning smaller in landscape

    Hi :-)
    I've been using Waze for a long time and I enjoy using it a lot.

    However lately the bar that shows arrival time has grown, leaving less space for the map.

    That's not the worst though. The worst is that, when nearing a speed camera or speed enforcement zone, the warning covers almost half the screen, pushing the speedometer behind the directions. As you can maybe surmise, I'd really like to be able to see how fast I'm going when nearing a speed camera.

    I use the app in landscape because that's the least intrusive way to fix…

  16. Optimize spotify integration on landscape view (ios)

    When the Spotify window is open and the device is in landscape mode, the window overlaps with the bar shown below. For example, it is not possible to open the “Spotify browsing list” because the action button is covered by the bottom bar. It would be great if you could redesign the layout a little to fix this problem.

  17. Please make the 2 bars on Waze disappear in Landscape mode

    in Landscape mode the 2 bars stay on the bottom of the screen and literally cuts the visible part of the map in half.

  18. Position des Navifensters bei Landscape Verwendung auf IP13mini

    Seit Kurzem wurde das Fenster mit den Navi-Anweisungen im Landscape Mode links oben in die Mitte verschoben. Früher war sie oben links in der Ecke. Wenn sich das Fenster automatisch vergrößert, zB wenn man AudioApps anklickt dann kann man das GUI nicht mehr bedienen weil das Fenster zu groß wird.

    Helfen würde:
    - Fenster wieder ganz oben in die linke Ecke verschieben!!!
    - Zusätzlich die Möglichkeit anbieten, zwei unterschiedliche Anzeigegrößen zu konfigurieren. Aktuell oder „so wie früher“.

    Auf dem IPhone 13 mini ist das GUI im Landscape Mode aktuell kaum bedienbar…

  20. Landscape mode with North Up needs to be east/west sensitive

    I insist on North Up and travel and east/west route often so Landscape mode makes sense. But when I travel east, my "car" is way over to the right of the screen, leaving no room for the road ahead. You need to move the "next turn" display or make it be narrow across the top. Going west does not have the same problem because the "car" is again way over to the right. So the "car" and "display" need to move around when traveling east to give a much better display.
