Revolutionizing Waze for Motorcyclists: A Call for Enhanced Audio Mode
Dear Waze Team,
I have been using Waze for several years in my car, and recently, I purchased a motorcycle. Along with the motorcycle, I acquired an intercom system, which has led me to primarily use Waze by relying solely on the audio instructions from the intercom, without being able to see the screen.
However, I have come across a feature that I believe would greatly improve the experience for motorcycle users like me, as well as for those who prefer not to have the screen on while driving. It would be beneficial to have an option, let's call it "Motorcycle Mode" or "Audio-only Mode," which could be manually activated or perhaps detect if the mobile screen is turned on or off.
In this mode, when Waze alerts me about a speed camera, I would appreciate more detailed information rather than a simple "speed camera ahead" message. For instance, it would be helpful to hear "speed camera ahead, speed limit XX km/h" or the same for average speed camera zones. This enhanced audio notification could also be extended to include alerts for changes in speed limits.
I believe this feature would be especially useful for those of us who rely on Waze through an intercom system while riding a motorcycle, as well as for individuals who prefer not to keep the screen on while driving. It would greatly enhance the overall Waze experience and contribute to safer navigation.
Thank you for considering my suggestion. I appreciate your continuous efforts to improve the Waze app.
Best regards.

Mapas offline com alerta de radar de velocidade
É um ótimo aplicativo, mas inútil em viagens longas por alguns motivos.
1º impossibilidade de baixar os mapas offline, com apenas alertas de redares de velocidade por exemplo.
2º toda vez que paro em um posto para abastecer e lanchar, o app perde a rota, como se desligasse. Ao abrir novamente, se estiver em local sem internet, já não temos mais a rota e os alertas de radar.
3º não informa radares de velocidade ou outros alertas, com a tela do celular bloqueada, não sei porque isso. Continua informando a rota, mas não informa os alertas.4 votes -
Can we get a known speed trap alert
Some areas are just known for speed traps. Maybe some kind of algorithm that logs how many drivers ping certain areas for speed traps for a period of time before its considered a "Known speed trap". This alert can be optional in carplay etc.

Show saved locations standerd with recent searches
With an recent update, Waze opens on Android Car with recent searches. Not shown are pre-saved locations like 'work' or 'home'. So now I need to close the recent searches, click on pre-saved locations and click the destination. Previously i could directly click on the saved location. The new update cost more clicks and is slower accessible.

Route Alerts
The shortened route alert should have user specified times. I do not care about saving 3 minutes on a 6 hour drive. There should also be a limited number of times Waze asks for this route. My last trip I ended up just letting Waze reroute me onto a toll road costing money because it wouldn't shut up about the 10 minutes I would save on my 3 hour trip.
There should also be a user settable feature where you can select how much you are willing to pay to save money. If an alternate route is faster but a toll route I'd be willing to pay about a buck a minute saved. However if the toll route is saving 10 minutes and costs $40 I wouldn't want to take it. That is a tank of fuel for most cars at the expense of not much time.

colore percorso da seguire
Buon giorno, vorrei proporre un suggerimento, poter cambiare il colore del percorso da seguire ,quando è impostata una destinazione, attualmente è di colore viola, se si usa la mappa predefinita, e abbastanza ben visibile, ma se si usa la mappa chiamata “gli editor della mappa” il colore viola del percorso da seguire non si distingue bene tra i colori della mappa, io suggerirei di trovare un colore che spicca meglio usando questa mappa , o in alternativa sarebbe bello poter personalizzare il colore del percorso, così come posso scegliere il tipo icona auto, poter scegliere il colore del percorso tra diversi colori che siano ben visibili e spiccano rispetto ai colori delle strade della mappa “gli editor della mappa” .Grazie.

Plan a drive
I'm not happy with the relocation of "Plan a drive." It's way too difficult to get to now and not intuitive any more. Please put it back on the main page.

Correct navigation. The system should say "drive ....miles" instead of "drive ... minutes"
for example, when the map shows "19 mi" the voice now says to drive "19 minutes" when it should say drive "19 miles"

Finding stops close by enroute to your destination
First, I am a highly experienced WAZE user and customer. I help with road hazards and posting to help other drivers, as much as I can. On a recent trip from New Jersey to Florida, using WAVE constantly, we wanted to find the upcoming Rest Stops or Gas Stations, that were upcoming ahead and "enroute" to our destination. I found it hard to believe that this feature does not exist?! When I was looking for a car wash or gas station, it gave every destination, all over the place in a circumference, behind us, 40 miles away...instead of enroute, 5-10 miles away, along 95?! I am missing something? How does WAZE not have this common-sense feature built-in by now?!

Speed indicator
It would be nice for the speed indicator and the time to be on the left hand side of the display rather than the right so the driver can view it easier on the car's display.

Detect different bluetooth/headunits for pre-set profile and settings.
As someone who rides a motorcycle and drives I would like to set different vehicle types based on device it is detecting. Like I would like if I connect to my car, no audible alerts and the routes that are best for that vehicle. But should I connect to my helmet communicator I would like if Waze knows that I would need audible alerts and motorcycle routes.

new version is a mess!!! do not connect with android auto
Hi!
What did you do to the application after a new version since April?
1) it does not connect with android auto to see the app on the car screen
2) to use the car screen you have to generate the route from the phone and then connect to the car
3) the icons in wase are very small that they do not allow an easy visualization and not with the same order that we were used to
4) It is very slow when you want to move the map with your fingers, it is not fast or effective
5) the information on toll costs, for example, is super outdated, and is irrelevant information
I work with people transport apps and I use waze a lot, they are making my life impossible, disconnecting and connecting the phone to be able to see the route, go back to the previous version, it is the best, and can you tell me where I can get that version to use it? while accommodating this recent version

Issues with new update
There are a number of issues with the new Android Waze update. I think it is obvious that the developers use the app on a large screen. The speed limit and current speed are far too small to read while driving. The circle with the speed in it is about 1/2" in diameter on a 7" screen. The speed text and the speed limit are under 1/4" and are very hard to read.
Also, when in full screen display, if one provides a location to navigate to, Waze shows the command in the dialog box, but does nothing. If one goes to the split screen, the destination just input is displayed and the itinerary can be started from there. It took me about 10 minutes of repeating the command, rebooting the car display, rebooting my phone, and just happened to see it on the split screen.
After using Waze, and returning to the car to head home, It was nearly impossible to get Waze to activate Bluetooth and connect to my phone (Pixel 7 Pro). I rebooted everything, "forgot" all of my Bluetooth connections, and finally got it to connect.
With the previous release, I never had these issues. So far, these are the major issues that I have discovered.
PLEASE issue a quick update so that Waze is usable again. I may need to put my Garmin back in the car.

Radar
Antes de la última actualización, la aplicación avisaba de los radares de tramos. Por ejemplo el radar de tramo del túnel de Villaviciosa (Asturias). Ahora no, solo de que hay un radar. Ya no distingue los radares de tramo de los radares de velocidad
