Map Zoom
If I am on a Waze path trying to see where I go next, the zoom feature does not work all that well. I'd like to be able to zoom out to see where I am going and to check traffic, but the zoom only will go out for a second, then zooms back in. NOt a fan of this feature and finding myself using Google maps to check traffic and see a path on the map as opposed to Waze zoomed in on the next 500'. I cannot get the map to zoom out to a decent level.

Android Auto Split Screen Support
In Android Auto full screen mode and using 2 apps for example Waze and YouTube Music, if you select music on the main screen (left) then the split screen (right) just shows Date/Time. Expecting Waze map to show in the split screen.
That's how it works with Google Maps. It shows up in the split screen if another app is in the main screen. Why can't it be same with Waze?

Media controls for carplay
With Carplay and cars that do not have touch screens (or media controls on dashboard - like Mercedes C and GLC class) there is no way to control media playing now. So a podcast, or apple music, google music - whatever may be playing in the background, just keeps going. To control it, one has to switch apps and in many cases, the app is not available for carplay so you cannot even do that. Could you add skip forward, skip back and pause to Waze to control the currently playing carplay sub-app? Would be HUGE.

Saint street OK waze TTS
When I use OK Waze, it always pulls the google result which uses St (no period) which Waze pronounces as STREET and not SAINT. The Waze result is correctly spelled as St. Augustine. Can OK Waze pick the Waze result first before the google result or have an option to which one the user prefers?
OR
Make Waze TTS read context clues so it knows which one is street and which is saint. For example if the Google result has a city field you can tell Waze that Google results don't use periods and that the city field is probably…4 votes -
Allow the user to copy and paste locations/directions
Why doesnt Waze mobile allow the user to copy and paste locations but instead creates a long and convoluted way to send directions to others or copy them for sharing. Other apps like google maps allows a one click copy to clipboard to share. It should be that simple, i cannot ever share the location with anyone because it creates a link for people. Why a link, just copy the directions only. Im surprised its not a part of the app already.

STOP signals
Please consider showing STOP signals when possible. An optional sound alert would be a plus. It will be an extra of confort for a safer trip.

Truck routes
Waze dev team,
Please consider an option for drivers (Waze users) to enter in their vehicle height so that Waze can provide them with suitable routes, avoiding routes with low bridges/clearance?
This would be applicable for truck drivers, tradespeople with work vans and work equipment on roof as well as casual drivers with trailers.
Reason for this is to avoid the frequent low bridge collisions or congestion due to truck having to back out of road.
In Australia, prior to GPS maps such as Waze or Google Maps, we used to have truck edition of paper maps or map books…

Larger arrows in colour coding for traffic congestion
The colour coding for traffic congestion arrows are hidden when on your route. They should be larger in order to unhide from the pink line representing your route.
This idea is near to https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-waze-suggestion-box/suggestions/3415622-the-traffic-congestion-icons-should-include-an-arr

New "Recent Locations" Screen
New feature with "Recent Locations" is of no value to me. The recent locations were already on your landing screen. There was no need to create this extra navigation step. I now have to take the extra step of navigating away from it and go to the old screen to type in an address. The extra step is time consuming as I use the app quite a bit, slows my day. Less is more folks, this is 2021, simple and quick was working well. Would be great if you can add an option to revert back to the old landing…

Floating window on exit
Would like Waze to implement "floating" window on exit. Or atleast have pop up notification of the next direction, like Google maps has. When I close out Waze, I have no way of knowing the next step unless I reopen app.

'Plan a Delivery'
I'm a fast food delivery driver who uses Waze to get around it would be nice to have next to recent, saved places & plan a drive a plan a delivery option where you can quickly add multiple destinations similar to add a stop apart from you can add more than one and it automatically does the nearest locations first, obviously this isn't useful for people not working in delivery so I'd suggest hiding the option by default and have a delivery driver setting to reveal it
Also a must have for delivery drivers is to show the postcode…

Aplicación se bloquea
Cuando conduzco moto me gusta usar Waze con manos libres, pero si bloqueó la pantalla se pierde la conexión con la aplicación y se cierra automáticamente. Debería seguir dando las indicaciones inclusive con el celular apagado, como lo hace Google maps

The google AI response should be conversational as this will help user to search about the topic and then have a conversation with ai response to dig more into the topic or alter the result. Right now it just show the static response from AI and that's all.

Voice modification
In Google Maps the voice says "at the light" Waze should incorporate this to aid in navigation. For a motorist in an unknown are a voice that says "at the light" is extremely helpful. Plus an idea of "at the stop sign". These cues would help and aid the driver

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 ) !

boutons pour confirmer un danger
Pour confirmer la présence d'un danger, ou pour dire qu'il n'y est plus, les deux boutons sont petits et proche l'un de l'autre. En conduisant, c'est pas toujours évident d'appuyer sur le bon.
L'idéal sera de séparer l'écran en deux à ce moment. En appuyant n'importe où à droite on confirmerai la présence d'un danger et en appuyant n'importe où à gauche on dirai qu'il n'est plus présent... on gagnerai en rapidité et surtout en sécurité.4 votes
