  1. ETA Only, Time Remaining Only or Both.

    In the Settings there should be a feature to have the Main Screen show ''ETA Only'', ''Time Remaining Only'' or Both.

    As it is now, the display switches between the two and the user has to keep looking at the screen to get the results they need.

    This is NOT SAFE!

    As noted on the Android Market, a lot of users want it to display just one or the other, not the schizoid way it is now.

  2. Option to toggle turn on/off fade music on alerts/notifications/Turn-by-Turn

    I use my phone (Android) as a Media Center on my car, it controls the audio and video on it. I play music using it, and the fade function is nice, but I like to use the waze with cellphone soundspeaker's instead of BT and, even so, my music through BT have this terrible fade-off on alerts/notifications/Turn-by-Turn speak.

    Please, consider an option to disble that, so we have a choise to use or not the fade-of on music.

    Thanks!

  3. Headup display on windshield for carplay/android auto

    Reposting because it has not been implemented

    Hello Waze Team,

    This post is to strongly urge the prioritization of full integration with Apple CarPlay to enable turn-by-turn navigation on built-in Head-Up Displays (HUD) and digital instrument clusters.

    This remains one of the most critical safety and convenience features missing from Waze, and it's a primary reason why many drivers reluctantly switch to Apple Maps when using CarPlay.

    The Technical Framework Exists

    We understand that enabling this feature is entirely possible within Apple's provided framework. The process is initiated by implementing the mapTemplateShouldProvideNavigationMetadata(_:) delegate method. By returning true from this function,…

  4. Address links don't work when connected to Android Auto

    The integration with AA continues to be frustratingly limited by the insistence upon making the mobile app unusable while connected.

    After recent updates, I find it nearly impossible to navigate anywhere of I'm driving and connected to Android Auto. When I use the voice search, it correctly identifies what I asked to search for but then lists no results. If I tap an address link from my phone (ie: from a Contact detail view) and open the link with Waze, this integration has broken down and the address never gets passed through to the head unit. I can't search for…

  5. Allow Menu and Report buttons to be hidden or transparent

    For screens that can suffer from burn-in, the buttons at the bottom of the Android client are very bright and prominent. While I have been lucky that the burn went away on my stock Galaxy S3, it would seem a nice option to be able to modify settings for those buttons. I would think either a "show on tap", or transparent option would be best. Perhaps also changing them to a darker look when in night mode would help too.

  6. Please let us have the option to show ONLY the speed limit sign.

    Please let us have the option to show ONLY the speed limit sign when using with an Android Auto car or stereo unit. Currently, it shows both or only the speedometer with the speed limit sign too small to see easily. When I first start up and I'm parked on a street that has a speed limit, the sign is nice and big. Once moving though, the speedometer shows up and the limit sign shrinks down to where it's hard to see.

  7. Update "auto focus" on notifications

    I use Waze on my Android linked with Android Auto in my Mazda CX5. It has a display, but not a touch screen. When it comes up with a notification like "vehicle on shoulder" I can never get the focus to stay on "Not There" or "Still There" because every time the mileage updates, the focus jumps to the "Search" icon. Do not change FOCUS when mileage updates.

  8. Fermeture de route sur Android Auto

    Il faudrait pouvoir signaler les fermetures de route directement depuis l'écran de nos voitures et non via notre téléphone.

  9. Release new symbian version

    The symbian is very popular platform wich is dying, I know. But it is still popular, and mobile phones with symbian Bella are still being released. It would be great to up to date the existing version. I heard that android and iphone use opengl to render 3d maps and symbian doesnt support it, but I think it is not the cause to completely close the symbian project.

  10. Android auto - car head unit layout

    I think the app layout when on the car head unit display should be split. (It has already been suggested in a post about low resolutions)
    - A split display could make it a lot clearer, since with the current floating turn directions/menu, the map is partially hidden when your route takes you left (since the car icon doesn't have enough horizontal offset)
    - A delimited box for the map could enhance its visibility.
    - The instructions pane could take the whole height of the display and thus use larger fonts/icons or provide better overall readability

    Fix Waze! Waze, Pixel 4XL, Android Auto, 2018 Chrysler Pacifica - when using navigation, Waze freezes, goes blank, restarts multiple times. This is a known issue that has gone unchecked for MONTHS. It makes driving dangerous!

    Great news! Android Auto is now available in Waze for Lexus' car models ES 2020, NX 2020, RC 2020, RX 2020, UX 2020. Install the latest app version to check it out.

  14. Using the smartphone's front camera for alert about driver's tiredness

    In Android there is a feature named "smart stay" which allows the smartphone to recognize, using the front camera, if the user is watching the screen (in order to turn off the screen when not in use) - see

    http://www.androidcentral.com/how-use-smart-stay-galaxy-s3

    I wonder whether it would be possible to create a similar function in Waze, that would recognize (by visually recognizing when the eyes close for longer than a fraction of second) and alert if the driver falls asleep. If this is possible (even partially), it can save lives.

  16. waze for windows phone 10

    Waze was originally build by an Israeli startup and I know you paid approximately $ 3 Billion to buy the App, before the App was bought the app had a great windows phone app updates, I understand windows phone is a small community of users as compared to your monopolized market share of so called ANDROID. however why are you so scared to release new versions on Windows phone platform? you already have beaten Microsoft and you win but show some courtesy to the waze fans who use windows phone OS and they also deserve an latest version. you…

  17. 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?

  20. Better Google Integration on iPhones via Apple Carplay

    It seems not to be working at the moment with iOS aka Apple Car Play but when I want to use Waze hands free, it would be great to have Google Assistant via Waze when connected to Apple Car Play and not only Android Auto.
