  1. Keep Audio Display Open After Notification

    If a user has the audio display open on their app (i.e. showing Spotify info on the upper third or so on the screen) and a notification is received - like for a car on shoulder, police ahead, etc. - once that notification is over, bring back the audio display that was already opened. It's annoying that after every notification that's received, no matter if I interacted with it or not, I have to hit the Spotify icon each time to bring it back up so that I can change songs and whatnot. I'm sure there's a way to know…

  2. CarPlay display on iPad / iPad mini > safety

    You have already developed a much more readable display for use on CarPlay. It would be very helpful if this was an optional mode on iPad's / iPad mini's. I think it would address the multiple requests for larger fonts etc without a lot of new development work.

    I was very disappointed to discover that even though the screen is larger on a iPad or iPad mini than my phone the display uses smaller harder to read text. Considering the entire purpose of the app is to be used while driving I can't understand why you are not working to…

  3. Have an option to display historic markers. It would be great for road trips.

    Have an option to display historic markers. A lot of people take road trips just to discover the world. Waze would help by providing markers along the way.

  4. Heads up when new route has toll

    When traffic is heavy on toll-free roads, waze redirected me to a new route which had toll (to save me 10 min in total).

    My suggestion:
    if the new route has toll as compared to the toll-free route: Give me a notification.
    Better yet: show me how much toll i have to pay to save me x minutes.
    I can then accept the new route WITH toll, or stay on the old route WITHOUT toll.

  7. Diable Phone interuption display when navigating

    When navigating and you receive a call, the navigation display is disabled all the time you are on a call, when most of the time I need the navigation especially around cities.
    Can you make it so that only a small pop-up reminds you that a call is being received/made and yet still displays the maps and route?

  10. I HATE the scoreboard change. Please display points needed for next level and friends scores, not strangers. Not a well thought out process

    Please display points needed for the next level again and friends scores. New scoreboard has taken all the fun out of the app.

  11. Continuous display of ALTITUDE

    It would be nice to see continuously the current altitude in Waze
    Sería bueno ver continuamente la altitud actual en Waze.

    זה יהיה נחמד לראות ברציפות את הגובה הנוכחי ב-Waze

  12. Allow Waze map to display on the driver display, for example on the Land Rover Pivi Pro system. Google maps can do it, so why can't Waze?

  13. Display direction of new road (e.g. I-10 *West*)

    Most of the time I get messed up using Waze is when I encounter a roadway or freeway turn where there may be immediate opportunity to go either way, e.g. I-10 East or I-10 West, or TriCity Parkway North vs. TriCity Parkway South. The display shows only "I-10" or "TriCity Parkway".

  14. use Iphone screen to display speedometer/speed limit when in carpay mode

    When in apple carplay mode, use the iphone screen to display the speedometer/speedlimit in full screen. Pehaps as a third tab next to the directions, notifications tab. With the phone in a cradle close to the steering wheel this avoids having to glance to the far right of the main car screen to see the actual speed limit.

  15. Display more (limited) house numbers at destination

    Short version: When approaching your destination display not only the pin for the address that you're arriving at, but also one, two or three addresses before and after the address. Example: navigating to 122 Main St would show up with the navigation pin, but also show a small number 114 and 118 before, and 126 and 130 after the pin.

    When working for a delivery app like Door Dash, Uber Eats, Uber, Lyft, Instacart, Walmart Spark, Amazon Flex, Grub Hub, etcetera you're just trying to get to the location, drop the package, and move on to your next delivery. Often…

  16. Display alternative ETA's at junctions

    When I'm driving towards an intersection junction along my route with several route alternatives, I would like a feature that displays hor much longer those alternative route choices are.

    Why?
    1) My commute has several alternative route choices that differ in meters and seconds.

    2) The first Waze default route choice is not always best.

    3) Sometimes I can plan my route better than Waze, and don't always choose the Waze route.

    4) Sometimes I prefer some variety in my daily commute.

    5) Sometimes I want to choose a different route just so I can see something different.

  17. Absolute black display

    Most of the iPhones from 10 and above have OLED displays, they can save battery on absolute black color, also at night it’s less distracting, and there’s less screen burn. A minimalistic night display with absolute black will be amazing feature. Also add a function that refreshes the screen on iPhones to reduce screen burn. Thank you

  18. Heads up warnings with distance to hazard

    Add the ability to include specific warnings along trip with distance. For example, show how far away along route that police are reported. User would be able to glance at display and see alert at all times along with distance. For example if police are spotted 100 miles down the road or 0 miles down the road, the icon would appear with a distance number below it. User could specify which warning(s) they are most interested in along with a start range for the distance they want the warning to show up. These warnings would show along the side bar…
