  1. Stop playing an audio tone when we click on "still there" even with sound on.

    With sound on, if you click "still there" for road hazards, you now play a tone. This tone interrupts the playback of bluetooth audio in the car and is very annoying. We WANT other sounds to play, so turning to "alerts only" or "sound off" is not a solution. We just want that little feedback sound gone.

  2. There is a problem with the application on the Android system for car screens

    The problem is that the search option covers part of the display and the area containing the map is unacceptable, so that the left half is useless while the right half only contains the car and navigation. The search should be minimized and the driving should be placed in the middle and not only in half of the screen

    The second problem is that the zoom system is not practical. When I accelerate to a speed of 80 km or more, the automatic zoom is very, very far away, so that you can discover the whole city, but you will…

  3. Automatically open keyboard after passenger confirmation

    At least on the Android client, after hitting the passenger confirmation button, the keyboard does not automatically pop up. The user must press in the blank a second time. Please program the keyboard to open immediately after pressing "passenger".

    Feedback & update request for the latest version. I'll start by saying I'm a huge fan of Waze. But this version has some major issues. I'm on an iPhone 6 running 9.2.1 (and now updated to 9.3). I have performed two hard restarts and uninstalled/reinstalled the app. I'm using a turn-by-turn voice (same as always)
    1. There are no distance announcements
    a. You get a 'turn right' command when you normally get a 'in half a mile, turn right' command
    2. The street names are not announced
    a. You only get street names at the turn
    3. The voice fades…

  6. Alarma para Waze fuera de servicio y corregir bug de desconexión

    Muchas veces voy conduciendo escuchando las indicaciones por bluetooth (conduzco motocicleta) y frecuentemente Waze se desconecta, no hay notificación auditiva y quedo perdido justo en el peor lugar. Waze debería tener una alarma o notificación al desconectarse voluntaria o involuntariamente.

  7. Fix android automotive - Apple car play Waze map disappearing on center wheel screen if not on tablet

    Fix android automotive - Apple car play Waze map disappearing on center wheel screen if not on tablet

    Only Google map is working, and not as great yet as Waze for EV except EV recharge calculations and suggestion.
    This is really annoying, from security perspective, wish to switch radio, on tablet, map disappear on cwnterwheel display.
    Constantly have to get back to tablet radio, change station, back to CarPlay, Waze, reset center wheel console to display Google map.
    Worst if you select Google map, it disable automatically Waze on tablet and cancel trip.
    Make it work or keep independent.

  8. NEW FEATURE

    Add a new feature that allows waze to voice out hazards ahead like road kill, traffic, and stopped vehicles. Also, when police are reported ahead. This new feature would allow drivers to get all alerts even if they are not using the waze app as a navigation tool. Drivers would be able to set this feature on and off by Bluetooth in their car as well. This would be helpful for everyone driving even if they do not need a gps.

  9. expose intents

    for all clients expose an API

    for Android expose:

    • intents
    • broadcast intents
    • application shortcuts

    for the slightly savvier user this allows accelerated navigation by macro (Tasker, Llama, OmniDroid, et al)

    API allows for similar macro- or automation apps on iOS (ipad, iPhone), windows mobile, other platforms surely

    instead of

    ° load waze
    ° click or swipe to open navigate to UI
    ° search for address
    ° select match
    ° go
    ° pick route

    the macro app could accomplish this in

    ONE click

    this is employing merely one of a panoply of time saving waze measures

    add to…

  10. Share trips from phone to car running aaos

    Hello everyone, I do uber full time and recently switched to waze. I was very happy to see that waze is available on my polestar 2's aaos but as an uber driver there's 1 option that would be a killer feature for us.

    When I accept a trip on uber it automatically opens the waze app on my phone, but I am greeted with a message saying "waze is open on your car, user here or exit". Even when I choose use here and then switch back to my car, it doesn't pick up where I left off. Hence why…

  11. Notification staying up too long and makes information unreadable in the new android auto vehicle display. Close button non functional

    Either fix the response of the android auto screen controls so buttons don't require multiple touches or long press (literally 5 seconds at times, even in the report window, literally any button). Cut the time stuff sits on the screen, fix speed sensitive notifications duration, or add a setting to change how long notifications remain on the screen. Incredibly distracting when you have to touch a button 5 times or hold it until the system notices you.

  12. speed camera popup

    The speed camera warning popup obscures the lane guidance when used in Android Auto. Lane guidance is more important than the speed warning, especially when getting close to highway exits or when the upcoming turn is close to the speed camera. Please reduce the speed camera pop up or move it elsewhere!

  13. The "Keep Waze always on display" no longer available on Android phone (it worked for a while). Why is it gone? Google Maps allows this.

    The "Keep Waze always on display" is no longer available on my Android phone (it was working for a while). Why is it gone? I want to see the navigation screen by waking up my phone but without having to unlock it (which is dangerous while driving). Google Maps does this, and Google owns Waze.

  15. Stop stealing voice command/recognition

    I have no problem using the Galaxy S6 voice command to send texts while driving.

    However, once I invoke the voice command in Waze (by 3-finger salute) I can no longer use the regular Android voice command.

    It seems Waze steals and won't release the voice function until I shutdown Waze.

  16. Android Auto Coolwalk ha quitado funciones

    Desde que la funcionalidad Coolwalk está activada, se han perdido dos funciones muy clave. 1. Ya no se indica el tiempo restante de trayecto. 2. Al indicar el destino no aparece la funcionalidad de "Aparcar aquí". En cambio aparece de forma fija la indicación de peaje (que haya o no) que, honestamente, bastaría con verse a la hora de selecciona la ruta. Creo que se deberían de reactivar las dos funciones porque haberlas quitado empeora la experiencia bastante.

  18. Make the planned trips feature an option in settings that can be turned off, in Android Auto.

    Make the planned trips feature an option in settings that can be turned off, in Android Auto. Currently, you need to search for the destination first then confirm if you are going to that destination right away or go later to save it as planned drive. I search for a destination, the results pop up and I press/select my desired result. Then there’s an additional destination popup that has to be selected. I’m told the purpose of the additional steps is to have users an option to plan for a route in a later time. Google maps does not require…

  20. UK / Android camera notices need fixing.

    UK camera call outs have gone to pot.
    Static speed camera's are not 'Speed Trap's - a copper hiding behind a bush is a speed trap.
    Used to get "speed camera reported ahead"; now a really brusque "SPEED TRAP ahead".
    Average Speed Cameras are not true Speed Cameras and do not need calling out every 3 lamp posts.

    Can we also have the "Speed reduced ahead" warning back - really useful for the 70-40 mph drops.
