Hold Wazer-reported construction blockages active for 6 hours
Keep ‘New’ user reported construction related activity displayed for six hours to allow verification by other Wazers who have yet to travel the same roadway. Holding construction-related reports for only 30 minutes is not long enough.

Journey Time in hours and minutes
Hi,
For some time now, the journey time is no longer displayed in hours and minutes, when it is longer than 60 minutes. For example, for a trip of 6 hours and 53 minutes, this gives 413 minutes.
This forces you to convert yourself, which is not easy when driving, because it is not enough to just divide by 60 (in the present example, it would give 6.88 ...).Is it possible to revert to a display in hours and minutes, or to leave the choice to the user in the settings ?
Thanks

apple carplay
Waze does not display routes when connected to Apple Carplay so I wrote them and asked for assistance and they said nothing to fix the problem. Here is my response.
Thanks for the email but this is exactly why Google is so frustrating sometimes. You write back this is the way Waze is intended to work. How could that be? Waze allows you to choose alternative routes and then the app doesn't display the 3 choices on the phone or the Apple Carplay screen? or is this how Waze gets out of it because the phone is connected to apple…

Speed cameras
Is it possible that you can add in settings on “display” that we can edit the photo size of the speed camera that is coming up on our route. And if we can change the colour of it to our interest.. as the gray camera is hard for me to see and the size of it is small for me to notice..
Thank you for your great work making Waze 🤩

Problem in route visualization when displaying alerts
When Waze displays route alerts the alert appears over the map when the phone is in horizontal position and it is not possible to see what should be done ahead. Please review this, as previous versions didn't have this issue.

How about adding “N”, “S”, “W”, or “E” inside the blue direction arrow so travelers know if they are heading North, South, etc.

Route info on widget
Currently the widget displays time to work or home and gives some indication of the traffic conditions. I wish it would show something about which route it chose for that info without having to click the Drive! button.

Show Fuel Stops on Route Map Instead of Only in List View
When selecting a fuel stop during navigation, please display the available stations overlaid directly on the map along my current route, instead of only showing them in a list. In unfamiliar areas, relying only on a list can lead to picking a station that causes an unnecessary detour. Being able to see fuel stops visually on the map would make it much easier to choose the most convenient option that lies naturally on my journey.

When reporting anything on the road, cops, accident, construction a header should pop up asling how far back (ie my loction, 150m,300m, 600m
There should be some form of a header that pops up as you're reporting a cop. For example that lets you select how far back from your current location. Same goes for any report you're making on the road. The last heading that pops up should be how far back. Just like the last heading when you report a cop is visible hidden other side of the road.

Increase the map speedometer when using Apple Carplay after iOS26 upgrade.
After the iOS26 update when using the Apple Carplay the speedometer was changed to a tinny version, very hard to see when driving. The overall experience with the carplay was better, the new carplay itself changed to a better resolution that fits better the 10inch display of my car, the only exception is the small speedometer used by Waze. Please, add an option that allow the user to configure the size of the speedometer when using Carplay.

CarPlay
CarPlay dashboard navigation mapping is unstable.
Every time I use navigation, the mapping on the dashboard disconnects after a while and shows the message “Please connect Apple CarPlay,” although CarPlay continues to display normally on the central screen. This is definitely not an issue with the phone or the car system, because I tested it in my friend’s car and the problem reappeared.
In addition, the navigation route displayed on the dashboard is too thin, making it difficult to use. I suggest making the route line thicker and more prominent.1 vote -
Current speed yellow when approaching turn too fast
App displays speed colour to yellow on turns.
In Australia we have advice sign posts "yellow triangle" that suggest
a comfortable speed for a corner (on corners that are closer to hair-pin than straight).The route navigation current speed would show white (normal), yellow (over suggested speed) or Red (over legal speed limit)
Some possibilities:
- Waze servers auto assign "suggested speed" value based an approximation of centripetal force that considered angle between two segment "points" and ignores slope.
- Waze editor allows a road to have an assigned "suggested speed" based on road signage suggestions (which take into…5 votes -
Add a simulation mode
Imagine you’re in a city or country that you don’t know and tomorrow it’s a monday, you have to be in a client’s office at 8AM. What time should I leave my hotel? I don’t know of monday morning I’ll find heavy traffic...
Maybe if waze had stored a traffic log (standards) from last week (for example), waze could give me (1 or 2 days in advance) a simulation of how long I’d take to head to my client’s office so I could get better prepared/planned.2 votes -
Enable drawing polygon areas where Closures cannot be applied
Use-case:
There is a bridge under construction where only one direction is open at a time, controlled by traffic lights. Currently, Waze often shows it as closed, even though cars are just waiting for the light to change.
Proposal:
Add a feature in WME to draw a polygon-shaped area where closures cannot be applied — useful for cases like temporary one-lane bridges with traffic lights, where Waze should display a queue instead of a closure.

On Screen Button Size
Android Auto on Ford F150 8.2" display. Buttons for "still there" and "not there" for reported hazards have a height to width ratio of about 0.16. Very difficult to press correctly as the finger moves up/down with vehicle movement. Button is too narrow.
Suggest that the "there" "not there" buttons have a H to W ratio closer to 1.0. Same screen space will be occupied, but buttons will be much easier to press.

WAZE Collaboration - Infotainment Skoda
Good day.
I am a long-time, satisfied user of the WAZE application. I use this application both for work and privately. For a year now, I have been a private user of a 2020 Skoda Octavia, in which I can use WAZE services using the Android Auto application, I am very pleased with the possibilities that your application offers in this way, I have only one reservation about the cooperation between the application and the Skoda infotainment system. My car is equipped with a HUD display and there is one serious error on this display. Every time a maneuver…

Detours
WAZE is screwing up on a lot of things that were reliable before. the detour function is one of them and it no longer works the way it did. When you come to a detour you should be able to click on any of the arrows in all directions as you may have had to turn. It now serves up one arrow based on where your car is headed so people aren’t marking new detours because they can’t anymore.
WAZE had a lot of features that are still there but no longer as functional or robust as they used to…4 votesThanks for reaching out.

Hello, I wanted to offer a good Wiz program to make it even better. And I'd like to show the display of speed cameras by tapping or flashing. Now, the user's own handset, which rings when it rises, or a few hundred meters Stay alert to the camera that you are close to the camera or if it is night with settings that the user's hand changes the alert's phone to the phone or

Obsolete or erroneous report canceleation
Toulouse, France : at regular time traffic is displayed as jumped but sometimes it is not so it would be a good idea to give client the possibility to say "traffic is light". Another example concern some events obsolete like a car stopped on road that is no more here ...
Thank you for your very good job !
