Add a general route view to Waze in Android Automotive (AAOS) in cars with two screens available (similar to Google Maps for Android Auto)
Add the possibility to see the general route view in the main car screen, while having the navigation route view in the screen behind the steering wheel. In this way, it is possible to make use of the two screens in the cars - one showing the navigation, the other showing the overall route (as it is available on Google maps for Android Auto). Thanks

Show speed limit only in Android Auto
I have a speedometer in my car that I can look at to see how fast in going. I don't need that. Just show the speed limit... By itself.. as it sits now it's just plain silly, it's like 1/16 of an inch and no way to get rid of the speedometer.
2 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

Android landscape
When using my Galaxy Note 20 in Landscape mode, the orange notification button overlays the map orientation button on the screen (north up or direction up). When I try to mark a notification, the map orientation flips instead of bringing up the notification page.

add a plugin method, e.g. radar detector
There is an iPhone app called "radar active" that allows realtime updates of speed traps. The sounds various radar detectors make (or dataports like on the Valentine V1) could be used to automatically add speed-trap / false alarm information to the map. Android has easy ways to add external hardware, but the microphone could be used on any platform with the right audio processing software.

Add to Android auto the touch and hold option existing on the Waze phone app report icon
Add the existing touch and hold option to the report icon to Android auto. This option, which already exists on Waze phone app allow you to access two or three preset reports types. This is reducing the time you take your eyes out of the road and it will allow you to access faster two or three preset reports types. As you touch and hold the original report icon the preset icons are displayed instantly surrounding the original report icon and allowing you through a single touch to swiftly choose to report something important (potholes, police, hazards, etc)

Improve basic Android Auto functionality for adding stops and liking pre-existing reports
Waze on Android auto is a solid start, but it's missing some critical functionality.
1) Adding Stops: I recently tried to search for gas stations along the way while on a trip. Waze showed me gas stations where I've already been. Not great.
2) Liking Other Reports: Waze will give you a pop-up on the bottom left of your screen on Android auto when there's a report that needs your input. E.g. a stopped car, a speed trap, etc. however, if you try to click the icon of a pre-existing report from another user on the map so you can…

The car (Alpine iLx)! represented on the screen shows on the bottom edge. I get you are trying to show as much as possible about the future, but I think it'd too low on the screen. Could you move it up half a representative car length?
Thank youDave

No highway override [Android Auto Projection Mode]
I have a 2016 Yukon and using Waze as primary nav in projection mode. While I'm aware there is an "avoid highways" option in the settings, however, it requires the unplugging of phone from car, set option as needed, plug back in and proceed etc etc.
Is there an audio voice prompt when setting a new route search like:
123 yourstreet here, city, state "no highway" option that can override the apps current setting?
I ask because I work in Rhode Island and work in Massachusetts (northern) so turning "on" avoid highways is not practical to my daily commute. However,…

Spotify voice commands
It's very dangerous that someone has access to Spotify when driving with Waze but can't use voice commands to interact with it. By not implemening voice command compatibility with Spotify, Waze makes it dangerous for drivers to control their music. Compare that to Android auto, which does let you use voice commands to control your music.

Missing the first part of the directions when connected to car bluetooth
With a previous update this started happening in one of my cars. The first audio that came out of the car speakers would be several seconds into the directions so you would hear for instance "turn right". You missed "in 1/4 mile". I just updated to ios14 and my other car is now doing it. It's disappointing Waze has chosen to ignore this issue. I was an early adopter but will be looking to Apple Maps in hopes of not having this issue. Waze is losing one of it's champions.

Android auto delen route
Route delen met bijv. thuisfront kan niet, zoals bij Google Maps wel kan. Dit zou een goede toevoeging zijn.

Integrate with cobra iRadar
Cobra has a radar detector that works with android and iphone. They upload/download radar locations for their own community. There may be an opportunity for the two companies to work together, and integrate with each other. Imagine: turn by turn nav, automatic traffic condition updates, user reported feedback of accidents and automatic reports of police radar points all in one cohesive application.
