latest waze version in Android Auto is a disaster
So the lates waze version was so frustrating, that I uninstalled it and went back a version.
1. The map is very slow - if you try to move the map around to see what's ahead it moves very slow and advances very little.
2. The Navigation menu, that was once located in a rectangle in the lower left part of the screen is no longer pressable. As a result the menu it self, that it once had ,are now permanently on the screen. But the moved to the far side from the driver. to the top right side. The…5 votes -
hide street name
Good morning,
Would it be possible to create an option to hide the street name? At certain intersections, the purple sign hides the white arrow. Additionally, with Android Auto, the street name is already indicated. Sincerely. RR18 votes -

New UX in Android Auto is terrible
April 2023 changes to the UX are terrible.
- More complicated, and needs more clicks to get anywhere
- Initial suggestions don't include Work or Home, requiring extra fiddling to select them.
- Many more clicks to get to routine things like reporting traffic.
- There/Not There options for hazards are virtually unusable - it constantly pulls focus back to the search icon.
Also sometimes get nothing other than "Welcome to Waze" on the main part of the screen.

Affichage de la zone de danger (bargraph) sur Android Auto comme sur le Tél ?
Bonjour,
Serait-il possible d'afficher la distance de la zone de danger (le bargraph vert) sur Android Auto comme c'est le cas sur le Tél ?
Celà ne prendrait pas trop d'espace sur l'ecran gauche d'Android AUTO et permettrait de savoir si on est encore dans la zone ou pas, car des fois, l'alerte sonore n'est pas entendue.
Merci

autoplay
Add a feature that allows the app to automatically start when driving. A feature similar to spotify that starts music whenever it connects to the Bluetooth in my car.

Waze on my car screen
GM now allows Google maps and several other APPs to be projected on my car screen from either an iphone or an android phone. Would be a great addition if we could get the WAZE APP to come up. I would happily toss the google map.

introducción en Android Auto de botones como si fuese en la app
Hola buenas, he visto que a través de Android Auto faltan muchos avisos que a través de la app de Waze se muestran... sería genial poder utilizarlos también, y por otra parte que se puedan mostrar los comandos de voz para cada función ya que conduciendo suelo utilizar los comandos de voz pero no me hace caso en algunos casos, quizá sea que el comando de voz no sea el correcto o simplemente sea un error.
Muchas gracias, saludos1 vote -

Sound Alert in LOCKED phone
I think Waze could enable an option to be able to keep warning (Radar, Hazards, Accident, Police, Heavy Traffic, etc) even when phone is LOCKED. When I lock my Android 4.3.1 it doesn't alert anything.
6 votesGreat news! This is now available in Waze for Android OS. Install the latest app version to check it out.

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…

App for Samsung Galaxy Watch
Create an app for the Samsung Galaxy Watch? Or at least integrate the watch into the Android Application so the directions show on the Watch.
6 votesThank you for your suggestion! We are currently not planning on adding support for Watches or other wearable devices.

import addresses
While I have an Android phone, I think that this may be of general usage.
I'd like to see an import/export capability, perhaps to Dropbox, etc.
I have had to reinstall Waze, and I lost my addresses, so it would have been nice to be able to simply import the book back. Also, my wife and I have many addresses in common, so it would have been nice to not have to enter them both.

Android auto direction on second screen
On the Honda Civic, the directions (i.e. a picture of a roundabout with the arrow coming out the right point) appears on the other screen behind the wheel. Google Maps correctly interfaces with this, but Waze displays every roundabout as a full U-turn, take the exit you entered on. Could this be fixed?

Waze map doesn't respond to screen touches (Android waze app)
Hi there,
For the past 3-4 updates, while on a planned drive, Waze will become unresponsive to screen touches. I end up having to click the back button on my Note 9(Android 10) for Waze to respond, prompting the 'do you want to close Waze?' message to appear. If I click no, then try again to get Waze to respond to screen touches it does not. I'm forced to close Waze then restart it on each occurrence. No other app that I have installed has this issue.1 vote -
Quick report buttons
It would be a good idea to place some (2??) customizable quick report buttons on the main Map/interface; in such way we can report speed traps/ dangers/ police while we are driving with a single touch (or double to exclude unintended reports)!
There are too many menu/options to make a report... the only way to put them live is to stop the car and going trough a jungle of options... ( :geek: and I'm used to that! I'm an android user)
Heavy traffic is fine... you're stuck in your car and you've all the time to browse the options but…280 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

The "mute during calls" and "play on phone speaker" sliders need to be interconnected
Here is the problem with the "Play sound via: Play on phone speaker" setting. With both "mute during calls" and "pause spoken audio" turned off, I noticed that if I have airpods in and they are being used as the device's default audio settings, I will hear all Waze alerts, as expected, on the phone's speaker.
However, if I'm on a call with the airpods, then all alerts and spoken audio are absent. I would like to hear my alerts and directions from the phone's speaker while I'm on calls with my airpods. However, my experience is quite different. It…
