Speed limit/autovelox notification when screen off
It would be great to have a speed limit notification and autovelox with a big pop up (like the speed limit signal 50 km/h) even when the screen is off. Often when the smartphone is connected with bluetooth I cannot hear the speed limit alarm. I'll be always aware of the speed limit and autovelox on my route saving battery!

Allow default sharing of route to android share rather than internal sharing mechanism
Currently sharing is done to an alphabetical user list from my contacts. This is of course kind of silly since most of us use waze for navigation but not as a means of communication. I would like to see the old sharing back as default (share via other app), or even better - remember which app i used last to share and offer it as default. In the past 4 years I have shared my ride not via whatsapp only once, and that was into facebook chat.

Search while connected to android auto
You have got to make it possible to voice search while driving. I use waze with my business and when I get a call I often have to change my destination or add a stop. I can't do that with waze without stopping. I legit added a manual power disconnect for my radio so I can turn my radio OFF which automatically disconnects android auto. Then I search in my phone, then I turn the radio back ON to get the new destination or stop in the waze app... Now how stupid and distracting is that? How is that safer?…

Audi A4 2017 Android Auto is not touch screen. Click defaults needs to be improved for scrolling
Audi A4 2017 Android Auto is not touch screen. Click defaults needs to be improved for scrolling. Needs a review of multitouch via MMI and click defaults. Many of the screens nothing is initally selected and I have to scroll muliple times before something is highlighted. Also would like to use the MMI in the drivers vision

Android Auto horizonatal layout is horrible
The latest update made it far worse than it was before:
1. Can not start planned drives from Android Auto at all (WTAF?)
2. The default focus (when not using touchscreen in a car, but a wheel to navigate on the screen) is always in the wrong and illogical spot.
3. Alerts cover your current location which is annoying - and the current location is not centered on the screen (horizontal layout).
4. The current speed can also be covered with other screen elements when not navigating just viewing the map
5. Too much clutter and unnecessary bubble buttons on…2 votes -
Alerte Radar android auto en mode horizontal
onjour,
Quand est prévue la maj sur Waze pour la prise en compte des zones de dangers (radar) en versions en horizontal sur les smartphones et véhicules. J'explique. Lorsque mon smartphone est vertical, j'ai bien la barre verte mais quand il est en horizontal, ce n'est pas le cas. Beaucoup d'utilisateurs de sont plaints de ça , quand est-ce que les développeurs vont prendre en compte ces revendications ?

Info widgets on Android Auto
Recently, you have changed the location of the Info widgets on Android Auto (turns, ETA) from the left side to the right side of the screen. This change causes the readability of this info to be worse, since the text and the symbols become far from the driver. If there is a justification for this change, I suggest enabling the user to configure these widgets' location; otherwise, I recommend returning them to the left side of the screen.

Waze no telemóvel e Android auto ao mesmo tempo.
Por que não consigo usar o Waze no meu telemóvel e na tela do android auto ao mesmo tempo.?
Por exemplo do Google Maps, eu uso ele no ecrã do carro e também consigo abrir no telemóvel para digitar endereço e consultar rotas.
Já o Waze só me deixa usar o teclado do telemóvel para digitar, para mim é ridículo.2 votes -
Showing speed in Android app
On Android devices when I enable in Speed menu that always show my speed, I disable always notice, but show notice only if I drive faster than 15km/h, when I hit the limit (at 50km/h the 50km/h) I get a notice with a big traffic sign which cover the real speed. Please fix this issue. If I check notice always it should work like this, but without that checkbox it shouldn't. Thx. Balázs Kovács

Volume glitch
The iPhone volume is very glitchy. When my phone is connected to my Bluetooth in my car, the sound plays sporadically. No sound sometimes. Then I shut Waze off and restart, and sometimes the sound returns. Sometimes not. Have to do a # of restarts.

Waze to initiate pre-determined reply to texts when driving
I want waze to initiate a pre-determined text reply automatically when I am driving, note automatically, so it switches on and off according to when I am driving using Waze. I would set my reply to say: "I'm driving at the moment so please call me as I can't read your texts but can speak to you using bluetooth. This text has been sent to you by Waze navigation app."

im using Sygav auto android touchscreen stereo that has Android versiuon 8 that can't be updated to version 9 nor version 13.

Android Auto Dashboard navigation information/Steering wheel control
Make Navigation information available in the Dashboard of the Car.
If I use google maps I have navigation information like "turn left in 400m" in the dashboard (next to the speedometer) and can use the main screen e.g. for music control or other apps.
Would be nice if Waze would also support the additional dashboard options.Also in google maps its possible to select the last locations in the dashboard with buttons on the steering wheel, but not in waze pleas add this also.

Add fuel station and prices to CarPlay/Android Auto interface.
You can already access favourites and search for addresses, but it would be great to access a list of nearby fuel stations and their prices (fuel type and search radius in settings).
Some sample mock ups:
https://i.imgur.com/xLONB7c.png (new fuel icon)
https://i.imgur.com/moGfVci.png (list of fuel stations, prices, and distances)
Once you select a station, Waze routes you to it.

obd2
Poderiam adicionar um plugin no Waze para se conectar ao OBD2 para usar a velocidade e a quilometragem real do veiculo, quando dentro de um túnel, ou até quando cai a conexão com o GPS, para poder postar um aviso, já vi carro parado em rota dentro do túnel em local perigoso, existem varios programas de obd2 e os aparelhos bluetooth estão baratos.

Increase selected button visibility on Android Auto
When using Waze on Android Auto (new Mazda) the buttons are selected using the touch wheel. The selection is indicated by a thicker frame around the buttons. While driving, this marking is hardly detectable. Instead a more significant colour or cycling colour pattern would help to find the selected button.
Another problem on my Mazda head unit is that it is nearly impossible to select the answer on the popup if a given event is still present or not. Using the touch wheel I'm hardly able to select yes or no, because the marking is not visible at all. This…
