Navigation does not resume after Android Auto disconnect/reconnect
When Android Auto (wireless) disconnects and I have an active navigation going in Waze on screen, when the phone reconnects Waze does not resume navigation, it just shows me the map. It does not ask to resume the route.
Phone is a Samsung Galaxy s24u, car is a 2017 Kia Sportage with the factory head unit, and an AAWireless in between.

Speed camera visual
I would like to provide feedback regarding the recent changes to speed camera alerts in Waze.
The previous speed camera warning system was much better and easier to see while driving. The blue progress bar provided a clear visual indication that a speed camera was ahead and remained visible as you approached and passed it.
The new circular camera indicator is much less noticeable and is harder to see at a glance. It requires more attention to the screen than the previous design, which defeats the purpose of having a clear and safe warning system.
Please bring back the previous speed camera alert design and allow users to use the original blue progress bar. The old system was more visible, more intuitive, and worked far better while driving.
Thank you for your consideration.

BMW idrive 7
Dear Waze Team,
I am a dedicated Waze user and BMW driver, and I would like to raise a feature request that I believe would make Waze significantly better and safer to use in BMW vehicles: proper integration into the instrument cluster and head-up display.
I currently use Waze in a BMW G42 M240i xDrive, model year 2021, equipped with iDrive 7, Apple CarPlay, and the latest iOS and Waze versions. While Waze works well on the central CarPlay display, navigation instructions are not shown in the digital instrument cluster or in the BMW head-up display. This means that important guidance, alerts, and turn-by-turn information remain limited to the center screen.
For everyday driving, this is a noticeable limitation. BMW’s native navigation system already makes excellent use of the cockpit and HUD by displaying guidance directly in the driver’s field of view. This is not only more convenient, but also safer, because the driver can keep their eyes closer to the road instead of repeatedly looking over to the center display.
From what I have seen, BMW vehicles with iDrive 8 have recently started to receive support for this kind of enhanced Waze integration. That is a very welcome development. However, many BMW drivers are still using iDrive 7, including owners of relatively modern vehicles such as the G42 2 Series. These cars are technically capable of showing navigation information in the cluster and HUD through BMW’s own navigation system, so it would be extremely valuable if Waze could support this functionality as well.
I would therefore kindly ask Waze to consider extending full cockpit integration to BMW vehicles with iDrive 7. Ideally, this would include turn-by-turn directions, lane guidance, next manoeuvre information, speed-camera alerts, police warnings, hazard reports, and other relevant Waze notifications in the instrument cluster and, where supported, the head-up display.
This would be a major improvement for BMW users who rely on Waze because of its excellent real-time traffic information, community alerts, police reports, and speed-camera warnings. At the moment, many drivers have to choose between Waze’s superior live data and BMW’s better cockpit integration. Bringing Waze into the cluster and HUD would remove that compromise and make Waze the obvious choice for many premium-car drivers.
I would be very grateful if you could forward this request to the responsible product, automotive integration, CarPlay, or Android Auto team. It would also be helpful to know whether support for BMW iDrive 7 cluster and HUD integration is already being considered, tested, or planned for a future release or beta program.
Thank you very much for your time and for continuously improving Waze. I genuinely hope this feature can be brought to iDrive 7 users as well, as it would make a meaningful difference to comfort, safety, and the overall driving experience.

Serious CarPlay Bug – White Screen When Selecting Alternate Routes
Hello Waze Support,
There is a serious and long-standing bug in Waze on Apple CarPlay that makes alternate routes completely unusable.
Every time I select an alternate route during navigation, the entire Waze screen turns white. Once this happens, the app becomes completely stuck and cannot be recovered from within CarPlay. The only way to get Waze working again is to disconnect the phone from CarPlay and reconnect it.
This issue occurs consistently and is fully reproducible. It is not an occasional glitch—it happens whenever an alternate route is selected.
Because of this bug, I can no longer use one of the most important features of Waze. The alternate route function is effectively broken on CarPlay, making the app unreliable and frustrating to use while driving.
This problem should not exist in a production release. A navigation app becoming completely unusable simply because a user selects an alternate route is unacceptable.
Please fix this issue as soon as possible.
Thank you.

Easy Customization for Speed Bumps
Speed bump alerts need a direct, easy-to-find customization toggle rather than relying on a "familiarity limit" based on driving days. Without clear control, frustrated drivers constantly report already-mapped speed bumps, flooding the map with duplicates update requests and creating unnecessary cleanup work for editors.

Allow multiple custom voice recordings per command (randomized playback)
Please allow users to upload or record multiple audio variants for each command, and let Waze randomly choose one during navigation.
This would make custom voices far more natural, fun, and less predictable.
Even a simple “playlist” of recordings per command would greatly improve the feature.Thank you for considering this enhancement.

Stop limit for 1 intermediate stop (waypoints)
More than "one stop" limit on the route. At the moment you can set only 1 stop on my route.
I like to use waze for motorcycle trips, often a loop, staring at home, finishing at home.
Also if you have a route reset and you want to add a petrol station, it doesn't let you.
Allow more waypoint options. Much more than 13 votes -
Reduce Distance in which School Zones are Merged
Currently, two school zones with 500 m (1640 feet, or about 0.31 miles) will be merged. This can lead to the driver being told they are within a school zone for over 0.5 miles, when they are not. The criterion for merging should be a shorter distance, with no merging if the zones have different speed limits.

searching for gas stations, restaurants, or parking lots along my active route
Hi Waze Team, I’d like to propose a feature: when searching for gas stations, restaurants, or parking lots along my active route, Waze should first display the ones that are directly on my route and on the same side of the road I'm driving on, leaving the ones off-route for the end of the list. It would be much more practical. The goal is to prioritize places that don't require making detours or U-turns, showing businesses located right on the shoulder/side of the road first, and placing options that involve crossing the avenue or detouring at the bottom of the list.

Sinais de Transito
Observei a pouco tempo um recurso no mapa lançado recentemente pelo app da 99, que mostra um temporizador do sinal a frente na rota, achei super interessante e percebi que isso pode ajudar bastante na mobilidade dos veículos nas grandes cidades.
Como sempre utilizo o waze nas minhas navegacoes resolvi sugerir a vocês sobre essa implementação no mapa de navegação, e aproveitar perguntar se existe a possibilidade dessa melhoria.3 votes -
Custom route
Hello Waze team,
I would love to see an improved custom route planning feature in Waze.
Right now Waze is excellent for traffic and live navigation, but it is difficult to plan scenic or motorcycle routes with multiple waypoints.
Suggested improvements:
* Ability to add many waypoints/stops in one route
* Circular / round-trip route planning
* Option to “lock” selected roads so Waze does not automatically reroute
* Scenic / curvy roads mode for leisure driving and motorcycles
* Easier drag-and-adjust route editing
Many motorcycle riders and weekend drivers would benefit from this.
Thank you!3 votes -

Info Box and button placement: bottom / top / left / right
Currently, all info and buttons show up at the bottom of the screen.
But I placed the iPhone in the car, where I cannot see this bottom area. It would be nice if there were an option to place this info and the buttons on other parts of the screen where they are more visible (and reachable) for me.

Pothole Buffer
We have some major potholes in our immediate area that is not being repaired. However, I need to re-add these big potholes every second day on the app, Is there a way to prevent the app from removing a pothole the moment the first user selects “Not there” from the app because they see the popup as a nuisance and not to update the hazard status. You need to ideally change it so that three or more users need to say that the particular pothole has been repaired before removing it. The same goes for other reported hazards.

Move speedometer position
Hello Waze team,
The speedometer is currently hard to see in its position while driving. Please add an option to move it, especially to the top-right corner, or allow users to customize its position on the screen. This will improve visibility and safety.
