Change 'Return' key to add line break, not 'Enter' when editing Places info
When editing Place info in the app (any version), currently Android does 'Enter' with the Return key,
I need to be able to add line breaks in the 'Details - About' box for data clarity, e.g. daily sub-department hours that are different from the main ones already listed.
Would be most helpful to to change the Return key response to instead add line breaks for just that box or even other sections. The Done key already takes care of accepting the edit. This behavior already applies to the WME.

Support for dimensions and combinations such as caravans
I propose that Waze allows users to save multiple vehicles, each with their own dimensions, including height, width, and length. It should also be possible to add vehicle combinations, such as a car with a caravan or trailer, where the additional dimensions are automatically taken into account during route planning.
Users could then manually select the appropriate vehicle or combination before starting a trip, or Waze could automatically detect the vehicle via CarPlay or Android Auto.
It is essential that Waze takes infrastructure limitations into account—such as bridge heights, narrow roads, sharp turns, and low tunnels—so that any routes that…

Ability to put Housenumbers into navigation on Android Auto
At the Current moment there is no easy Possiblity to put in Numbers after the Street address like on Google Maps. As a Cab Driver it is really frustrating that i have to do it manually and often don't have the times for it. On Maps, after i Input the street it gives me the option to put in the House number and then complete the search

PLEASE add Estimated Time of Arrival via SMS on mobile phone and on Apple Carplay and Android Auto without the use of a phone.
Please add ETA via SMS alerting the person that I am running late or increased traffic ahead and a SMS to be sent automatically through my phone to notify that I am running late.
Sometimes notification through the app its not that reliable as most of my friends does not have Waze installed nor they did not notice a notification but noticed more when a notification is sent through SMS.
When this feature is added please give us an option to choose between sent ETA via APP or if detected without a waze app it automatically sent notification through SMS.…

Mute warnings when not using navigation (in Android Auto)
It's very annoying when you're driving around, not using navigation, and you're listening to Spotify for example and Spotify is getting muted because the Waze voice wants to let you know there are traffic lights, speed camera's and such when I already know they're there.

Speed limit alert
Hey Waze
I have a proposal that I think would help with traffic safety. You have already created a speed alert. The problem today is that it only gives an alarm once in a speed zone. To get a new alarm, you need to enter a new speed zone. I thought it might be a good idea to make it possible for you to choose to get an alarm as long as you drive too fast, and that you can choose the alarm tone and volume. In android auto, the speedometer is placed on the right side of the screen,…

Display the next 3 turns and distances on the main screen / apple car play screen / android auto screen
2 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Cámaras de foto multas
Cordial saludo, en mi app de Android no me da la opción de avisar donde están las cámaras de foto multa momentáneas o fijas, así evitar estas cámaras para no ser multados y ser más precavidos en las vías.

Cercle indiquant taux de diabète
Serait-il possible de créer un cercle indiquant le taux de diabète provenant de son capteur relié en bluetooth à son téléphone, ceci afin d'éviter de scanner son taux avec le téléphone sachant que c'est interdit en France de tenir le tél à la main en roulant. Lors des grands trajets, cela permettrait de se surveiller et d'éviter une hypoglycémie source d'accident éventuel.

Add feature to map that is like Google Maps
I would give this app 5 stars if the Waze app developers could put the name of the road you're traveling on behind the arrow in a bubble like Google Maps. Google Maps has this not only while navigating but while just traveling using the Map on Android Auto without navigating as well. I mentioned this before. Not sure why Waze hasn't implemented this yet. I would use this App more. Other people probably feel the same way.

Latest saved addresses
Hi Good Day
I trust you are well.
My name is Brad and I'm a big fan of Waze. Been using it ever since I discovered it. Thank you for creating such a fun and practical navigating app.
I have a suggestion though, if I may, please can you make an adjustment to where newly saved addresses are shown. When I plan a new journey to a place I put in the address and save it to use later. The update I would like to suggest is to have the latest saved addresses appear at the top of the saved…

Faster nightmode detection
I have an Android car stereo with Waze.
When I turn on ignition, Android boots up and Waze starts.It seems that Waze needs GPS as well as network access to detect night mode. As after bootup, GPS and network needs a while (1 or 2 minutes), Waze starts in day mode even in the night.
Please, do not addict night mode detection to GPS and network, and look at the local clock. Possibly use last known position and the current time.
With Waze's full brightness of day mode it dazzles - driving so is really dangerous.

Pesquisa por voz
No android auto deveria ter opção de inserir o destino por voz (pesquisa de endereço por voz). Ter que digitar na tela da multimídia é terrível. Outra sugestão é deixar já como padrão a opção de digitar no telefone.

Allow closure reports when its not on your route in Android Auto. Even when I drive right by I can't report it if I'm not supposed to turn.
Unfortunately, we are no longer able to report a road closure using the closure option in the Android Auto version of Waze unless the closure falls on our route path. I thought you'd like to know. For example, I drove past a road closed sign, but since the route directions did not tell me to turn right on that road, I couldn't use the closure option anymore. I had to report it as a general map issue. This is the second time I've had to do so. So, not only does this make it more difficult to use...... while driving…

allow users to input address from phone when connected to android auto like Google Maps
this is a feature that is available with Google maps but not with Waze. its convenient to hand my phone to my spouse to update and input the address from the phone. we do use the "voice" feature but it is really hit or miss and it's just easier to update address thru the phone instead of the headunit

Route guidance Audio
Fantastic app. Well done and thank you.
In a future release, would it be possible to
Optionally have the route guidance to the drivers side of the vehicle only so as not to disturb sleeping children / passengers?
Optionally have the route guidance sent to bluetooth earbuds, not the car audio so that only the driver hears it.
Thank you for all your excellent work.

Lane display in AA/CarPlay
Hello,
I suggest changing the lane display on Waze in CarPlay/Android Auto. The display is too small although there is the possibility of having a larger display without losing the basic instructions.
Here is an example --> https://photos.app.goo.gl/yDCGB9X6EhJyWogAA
