Would it be possible to unlock the positions of the control elements, respectively the compass icons, messages, speed, etc. to drag (e.g. by holding) to any place on the display? This would be helpful in certain views - when overlaying the map area with these elements.

back alley
not sure if these two concerns are already part.of this new update because I'm barely having the update done:
- I think, Waze designed to.guide us using fastest route, to cross a busy street Melrose for example, instead of leading us to a traffic light controlled street where we can have our legal turn to cross Melrose. or make a left or right turn. Waze would lead us to a yield and non-traffic light controlled street where there is zero chance of crossing the busy street. and leave us with the last option to just make a yield right turn on…

A way th control texting and driving at same time.
We were using Waze for first time today, I was driving and wife was on phone. She was unable to type anything in since car was moving and suggested we stop to input info. This technology should be marketed to the phone companies, which would block people texting and driving at same time. It could save many lives and countless injuries if adapted to all phones.

Terceira faixa --- Third track
Nas estradas onde não existem pista dupla, os motoristas ficam ansiosos para realizar ultrapassagens para evitar veículos lentos. As oportunidades de ultrapassagem podem ser previstas pelo waze que indicaria na tela a aproximação, inicio e fim da terceira faixa. Geralmente a terceira faixa existe em aclives, para que veículos lentos, caminhões etc mudem para a direito facilitando assim a ultrapassagem dos carros mais rápidos. Se os wazers pudessem programas as ultrapassagens nesses pontos que são fixos, a ansiedade poderia ser controlada e inúmeros acidentes evitados! ----- On roads where there are no dual carriageway, drivers are eager to perform to…

Sound control (alerts only, off, etc.) used to able to be accessed from home / start screen. Need to have it back.
Sound control (alerts only, off, etc.) used to able to be accessed from home / start screen. Need to have it back.
Up until this month I was able to set the sound choice easily before starting a route, now I can't. This means if I'm looking at a route in a crowd before setting off I am stuck with whatever the last setting was. Often this means it starts blabbing away disturbing people. Revert to having the speaker icon visible on app start.

Critical next turn alert
The Problem
Many users disable or tune out standard turn-by-turn voice navigation because it can feel repetitive or intrusive during routine parts of a drive. However, missing a specific "critical" exit - especially on highways or in rural areas - can lead to massive detours, often adding 10–20 minutes to a trip.
The Solution: Critical Turn Alerts
A smart notification system that triggers only when missing the upcoming turn would result in a significant delay. This allows users to enjoy a quieter drive while ensuring they are alerted before a "point of no return."

Provide degree of confidence of route suggestions
When choosing a route, I would like to see a degree of confidence that I will arrive at the time specified. More of them than not, I arrive at my destination several minutes after the original estimate due to building traffic, getting stuck at lights, etc. This especially occurs during rush hour traffic. If the app offered a level of confidence based on the proposed routes then I would feel like I have more control over my route. This could be represented as a % confidence based on conditions and aggregated data from users along that route or ever a…

Improve!!
The app was amazing for the time 4 years ago... Stop taking all the data and using it for gmaps and not reciprocating by putting some money into map control and manipulation. The finger pinch zoom is horibble to put it lightly! It seems from a user's point of view that the relationship between Google and Waze is like a child who eats all of the frosting off a cupcake and leaves the rest for his dad to eat. Ya it will fill him up but looks like shit and doesn't taste as good as it could!

Motorcycle based map and speed display scale and legibility.
I have 5" carplay units on both of my motorcycles. (no this is not a display size issue). My preferred map software in carplay, is Waze, as I want the most crowdsourced information such as cops, traffic, construction, etc. My only problem on the motorcycle with carplay/Waze display is that the map is way too FINE and small print, the speed is too small, and red/black which are fairly impossible to read as they're both dark colors.
My ask, and idea, and suggestion... either basically control over the display SIZE to make the fonts and boldness of the roads and…

Audio bug
Hello,
For several weeks and despite successive android auto / waze updates, the audio messages of the alerts are truncated.
The last words are no longer pronounced completely.
Example (in French): "vous arrivez dans une zone de contrôle" is pronounced "vous arrivez dans une zone de contr."
The end of the word "contrôle" is missing.Merci

Feature Suggestion: “Group Ride / Buddy Mode” for Safer and More Connected Travel
To the Waze Team,
Good day! I am a longtime Waze user, and I truly appreciate how your app continues to innovate in keeping drivers safe and informed. I would like to suggest a new feature that I believe would greatly improve the experience of many users, especially those who travel together.
I would like to propose a “Group Ride Mode” or “Buddy Mode” where users traveling as a group such as friends, families, and motorcycle convoys can see each other in real time directly on the Waze map. Many riders and drivers often travel together, and having this integrated…

Caravan Mode / Follow Me Mode
I've been thinking in a new mode for Wazers... I've been driving with family along the road in different vehicles, not once we've been able to keep the same speed or pace and we end loosing sight of where the vehicles are. In Mexico safety its a very important matter, and everytime we are not able to see where the other cars that are driving with us we call them or text them to see if everything is fine. I imagine a Caravan Mode in which multiple Waze accounts are linked for a trip and you can watch the vehicles…

Add a day of week control to the Live Map
Traffic history on the weekends is not the same as on a work day. That makes it difficult for an editor to reproduce the reported conditions unless they wait for the next similar day.

Checkpoint
Good morning.
Men from northern Italy, Friuli Venezia Giulia precisely.
We have created a group on Telegram of about 330 people (and growing) that allows us to exchange information about places of the various State Police units Control, Police, Municipal Police and the Guardia di Finanza.
Now you can imagine how many messages arrive daily but mostly out of area messages, or alerts about a city even if I am in another.
With this message I wanted to ask if you could put in your reporting tab, the controlling authorities mentioned before so you can move the group on your…2 votes -

On CarPlay the hazard report and audio control buttons etc appear on the left of the screen in the UK
On CarPlay the hazard report and audio control buttons etc appear on the left of the screen in the UK instead of on the right nearest the driver. I did see it appear on the right just once after the latest update and thought "great!" but then at next launch it reverted to being on the right. Experts in the forum suggest this is set by region so are UK being classed as EU- we drive on the right. Can this be fixed or made an option to change in the settings in case I hire a car in the…

During radar warning speed limit is not visible
During radar warning the "current speedlimit" is shifted above and disappears under the "next direction change information". Then you can not see the speed you are actually driving during the speed control, this please needs improvement.
