Remove Interstate Markers
Allow kids to remove the interstate markers that display every few miles so that they don’t keep saying, “after the 40 there is a hazard”.
1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Android Auto issue started roughly a number of months ago
Usually on my car display, Waze icon shows up by default along with Google Maps when I plug my phone into the car. Now it doesn't. I have to start the waze app on the phone for the icon to appear on my car display. I use a 2021 Toyota Corolla LE. Also when I try to use Waze on my car screen, when I use the Uber driver app along side it, Waze freezes saying "kill" the app or "wait" as choices.
Either chosen option, the app doesn't work on the car display. I was wondering…

Incorrect Symbol in HUD and Widget for Roundabouts via Android Auto
Issue: Incorrect Symbol in HUD and Widget for Roundabouts via Android Auto
Vehicle: Smart #3 Brabus
Phone: OnePlus 13
Problem: When using Waze through Android Auto, roundabouts show incorrect navigation symbols in the car’s HUD and media widget. This does not happen in Google Maps.
The main screen shows correct instructions, but the HUD and widget display incorrect icons — often showing wrong turn direction or exit.
Please verify if the Android Auto metadata (like NavigationTemplate or TripInfo) is being sent correctly by Waze for HUD integration.3 votes -
Show the same traffic animation of the Waze App also on the Livemap
Every time I watch the traffic around me on the Livemap I'm bothered by the traffic jam indication.
In the app I like the animation which shows the direction of the traffic jam, the colours and also that the average speed is shown.
In comparison to that the solution of the Livemap is fairly ugly in my opinion. There are just little lines that vanish from time to time with different zoom levels. They are very pale and have no glowing colours like it's displayed in the app.
I'd like to see beautiful traffic jam animations within the Livemap.

Remove limits on saved places
Remove the limit from number of saved places. (its limited to 100). As a taxi driver, i found myself saving many places. Its easy for me to type the short letters and my saved places come on top. I want to use waze all the time even if i know where am going because it gives me alerts about speed cam, traffic..... Please kindly remove that limitation.
There's another thing that needs fixing. For example, am in Abu Dhabi where there's Malls that begins with same letters in there names, like; Marina Mall, Mushrif Mall, Mazyad Mall. So the best…

Southpaw mode for UI layout
Have a toggle to mirror the layout of buttons on the screen in CarPlay. My vehicle has a wide display which puts the hazard button far away. In fact the buttons I use the most are the furthest from me. Having a way to flip or even pick where UI elements sit would be great.

Make pop up navigation banners informational only
Please add the option to make navigation pop-up banners in CarPlay informational only, and not only an active selection option. Too frequently when I am trying to select something while in the Music or Podcast app (previous track, pause, jump ahead, etc.), the Waze banner keeps incessantly popping up with a navigation direction, and when I think I am selecting an option in the Music or Podcast app, it then selects the banner, taking me to Waze on my car display. In the most ideal scenario, I should only be looking at my screen for a very brief moment…

Be able to see and select on map individual addresses
I want to be able to see and select individual addresses instead of just blocks. It's very annoying when I want to look for a specific address but Waze stubbornly doesn't show it. There isn't even an option for it. My idea is to have an option to display individual addresses in the 'maps display' setting, and when it does that, it displays the addresses and roads like Google maps, which does it way better.

Removal of turn by turn view via auto android via phone
Could you adjust the phone screen when connected to android auto, main screen on the display in the car, the turn by turn to be removed so you can view the navigation on your phone rather than the display.
Honestly looking down rather that looking across slightly seems alot more safer when driving. I'm resorting to not connecting my phone through the usb connection due to this change.1 vote -

Arrival address size and displayed before arrival.
Show arrival address sooner, maybe a block or two away, and also in larger type face... a much LARGER TYPEFACE. It is hard to read the address when driving so, is distracting and unsafe. There is a need to start looking at house numbers to know which side of the street the property is on. Thanks!!!

Alerts covering the speed limit icon
As my car doesn't have Android auto, I have to connect my phone and mirror the screen in landscape orientation onto the car infotainment display.
With the new update, the Speed limit icon gets covered when a speed camera notification pops up. I use waze alot in the UAE
Please fix this.
Thank you! Much appreciated!

A confidence meter
Essentially a meter that displays a grade of confidence in current reports based on the amount of wazers passing through an area. A highway in the middle of LA would require a higher amount of wazers as the chances of a new speed trap being set up or a blown tire happening is more likely.
Let say the H1 here in hawaii gets 100 wazers driving through every hour in busy times. During busy hours it would require 5 wazers every 10 minutes to get a grade of A in cofidence. If it dips down to 5 wazers in…

Popup messages for multiple road reports
On the way home tonight, Waze alerted me to several road problems ahead (police, stopped vehicles, etc.). The reports were in such close succession (less than a mile apart) that the popup message for the first report was still on screen when the popup message for the second report appeared. Unfortunately, the second popup was on top so I could no longer see any information about the first report. When displaying multiple popup messages simultaneously, Waze should layer them such that the hazard in closest proximity to you is on top, followed by the next closest, and so on.…

Have Android auto function like apple car play
When you connect to apple car play you can see the upcoming turns on the phone. When Android auto is connected Waze doesn't let you see anything on the phone and says to do everything on the car display. This is frustrating because there's no way to see past the next upcoming turn for android auto.

Virtual cockpit and android auto - improved turn by turn signs and sugestions in VC
When using Virtual Cockpit in VW group cars I can have waze or google maps turn by turn indications displayed in the middle of the virtual cockpit screen, only the next turn.
