Better head-up-display directions at roundabout
The head-up-display shows directions through waze in my VW ID.7. At roundabouts it shows an arrow, instead of (part of) a roundabout with which exit to take.

iPhone Vs Android. Detailed Directions on iPhone, missing on Andoid.
When plugged in via USB an iPhone shows the map on car display and detailed instructions on the iPhone display. Android phone shows map on car display but a blue screen on the phone display, why? Show directions on Android instead of a stupid blue screen! This app is superior on iPhone for that reason. This needs to be fixed ASAP. Blows my mind this feature is not in Android. I want to know 4-5 streets in advanced where I'm going and the turns I need to make so I can get into the proper lane ahead of time.

Safety road is follow one way circles
FOLKS, PLEASE READ THIS IS URGENT.
I have 20 years o driving experience, well my friends died on roads too.. Last time technical failure caused the truck in opposite direction lost its trailer. 80 + 80 = 160kmph = HE DIED.
Therefore I have imagined how ie. distributors (PpL, DHL,UPS..) travel in circles... In general average, I better don't want to meet these guys in opposite direction. In mathematical model I want to minimize other Wazers passin by. I'd like to get SOME model applied in general and follow just because I am scared of front crash. SOME could…1 vote -
Please fix the CarPlay issues,
Please fix the CarPlay issues. Directional information covers the speed limit, move the speed limit to the top left? Speed camera notifications cover too much screen, make these transparent? Show the average speed camera distance like on the mobile version of the app. After turning a corner the map takes too long to realise you’ve turned meaning you scan easily miss your next turn if it’s close after.

Annoying issue with the App
Bonjour,
Il y a « problème » récurrent avec l’application.
Exemple concret :
Je renseigne une adresse, je valide.
Et parfois l’application remplace toute seule cette adresse par mon favori « home »
Si je ne m’en aperçois pas je file direction la maison au lieu de l’adresse inscrite.
Je précise que ce bug s’est produit pour d’autres personnes !
Merci pour votre attention

please improve asap and make things more convenient to customers.
It should not be so ******* hard to set a new start point and map out my directions. this is horrible. I've tried it so many times via. google, and other people's suggestions and nothing. this is terrible and unbelievable that you all would not make this option a convenience to customers.

Checklist
Waze should have a pre travel checklist. For example: When you start your commute to work, a notification to remember your laptop would pop up. The user could tailor this pop up reminder to their specific needs.

Live Alerts Notifications for my favorite/default routes
Currently there is a feature for Travel planning to schedule departure times, but not always used for most common routes or favorites (for example going home), and I think need to be set every time you plan a travel...
The idea is to be able select routes from my favorites or set specific routes (start to finish points) and if some specific type of alert (that we can define, e.g Accidents, or delay time, etc) is posted in Waze on that way, we can receive a real time Waze Notification, Message and/or email with that type of alert at…

Unblock phone sleeping when idle or parking - to preserve battery
It happened to me several times and I find it very annoying.
When I park the car waiting for someone out if I leave phone in the car when I reach my destination and I forget to turn it off, Waze will prevent the screen from turning off and will drain out my battery quickly.
My suggestion is that I'd Waze detects that I'm parking or not driving for over a minute or so, it should automatically suspend the navigation activity and enable screen shutdown and sleep until user starts driving again.5 votes -
Resume drive notification
A toggle to send silent notification.
Resume drive notification option when waze was stopped without exiting navigation.This could be a nice option to me and for everyone that eccidentaly closes the app by clearing apps. And also when you are driving and waze is stopped by system.
For me the app closes automatically on my mate 20 Pro while I'm navigating with sound direction via headphones. And I am not even aware when it happens. With this option I would be able to change the notification sound for that and know waze has closed and resume with one click.

local voices
Have directions read to you in local voices. Choose your town and the voice would feature someone from that area and use local vernacular and dialect for personalization and added fun. Start with @pardonmewithp in the Detroit area.

Establish a Waze instance on Mastodon
With Twitter (X) becoming more and more unusable as a social media platform, some of us have migrated to other social media platforms to continue communicating about Waze. One such platform is Mastodon, which is part of a defederated network of social media servers that is gaining popularity, particularly among tech folks. If Waze could establish its own Mastodon server, then we could ensure that there is a dedicated space for us to spread the word about Waze, and it could be managed by the same folks that moderate the forums. To setup a server, you can start here: https://docs.joinmastodon.org/

Alert police on both sides of the road
Currently, waze only provides an alert when approaching police on the same side of the road. In Australia, police will check vehicle speed in both directions. Waze should have the option to provide alerts when approaching police on the opposite side of the road.
