  2. Allow option to turn on old landscape mode. This new mode sucks and takes up too much of the space and often gets in the way of road.

  3. Move compass lock icon when in Landscape mode

    The compass lock icon is hidden behind the contacts icon when the phone is on its side. Please adjust where these icons are located so that I can lock/unlock North!

  4. On iPhone 15 Pro Max, text takes up far too much of the display in landscape mode.

    My idea would be to have the option of splitting the display in two when in landscape mode, with the map on the right taking up the full vertical space available, and the directions, ETA and other info on the left. Or vice versa.

  5. Show distance of trajectory control zone

    In portrait mode you can see how long the trajectory control still is but not in the landscape mode. I would like it if this would be added.

  6. Upside-down interface

    Without a car dock, the iPhone rides upside-down in my cupholder since the car charger plugs in the bottom of the phone. It would be awesome if Waze supported 180-degree rotation in addition to both landscape modes.

  8. Landscapes near you and you did not know about their existence

    On an excursion in Europe between Germany and Austria and Switzerland, we reached our destination, like any destination. But it is also important to enjoy the road and breathtaking scenery. Sometimes it's worth stopping for a moment .. (That's how the idea came about)

    Sharing landscape photos (located on / near the route I'm going through) of users will help those who do not know the area, reach the landscape that is on my route. Stop for a moment and watch from the vehicle and then continue on a trip

    It will be possible to operate it as a feature…

  9. Turn by turn (next turn) panel too big

    Is there a way to make turn by turn (next turn) smaller in landscape mode. Takes up to much of display. Possibly be able to hide it until you are within a certain distance from the turn. (This is on a Note 3)

  10. Full screen view

    My Waze and search fields take almost half of the screen space in landscape mode. This is getting out of hand. Add an option to hide them when I drive without navigation please.

  11. Allow me to select the position of the vehicle cursor or icon.

    Allow me to select the position of the vehicle cursor or icon on the map manually. Currently the Vehicle icon or cursor is only positioned in the middle of the map when in landscape mode and only at the bottom of the map in portrait mode. I would like to be able to manually select the ideal position on the map for the vehicle icon. Or allow options like top, middle or bottom of page.
    This will really assist when in landscape mode.

  13. iPhone 14 and dynamic island

    I got a new iPhone 14 and in landscape mode the dynamic island covers up very important information on the map, including what road is next and in how long. Please fix this!

  15. add a parameter for choise a for mode orientation

    Add a parameter for choise a orientation manualy of the device, and not set with the gyroscope.
    I propose :
    Automaticaly => giroscope
    Landscape => manual
    ReverseLandscape => manual
    Portrait => manual

    its better for choise for user :)

  16. Alternative feature for traffic jam bar

    The traffic jam bar is automatically shown in the portrait WAZE map view mode but it can't be automatically shown in the landscape WAZE map mode. Actually, this bug is already exist in the previous WAZE GPS app versions & had ever reported to the WAZE support team.

    You can witness this bug when in navigation mode & the WAZE map is rotated from portrait view mode to landscape view mode & vice versa.

    Perhaps a countdown timer, say to be placed either beside the speedometer or beside the orange reporting traffic/hazard type button, showing the elapsing estimated time in…

  18. Car pointer more centered

    Especially when in landscape mode, the car pointer is at the very bottom of the screen, what does not allow to have a good view of the roads and surroundings.
    Please make at least an option to have the car pointer more centered on the screen.

  20. fleche trop grosse dans la derniere version et trop haut placée, en version landscape, elle est quasi au milieu donc on ne voit rien.

    la fleche trop grosse dans la derniere version et trop haut placée, en version landscape, elle est quasi au milieu donc on ne voit rien.
    pourquoi les indication prennent tout le haut de l ecran ainsi que l indication de danger? avant c etait sur le coté et cela ne prenait pas de profondeur de champs. Je n ai pas trouvé l utilité du mode auto dans l affichage 2d ,3d ou Auto, ce soft est genial, mais manque d option comme avait Igo quand ce dernier fonctionnait bien
    continuez !! et merci
