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.

Correct Multi window (currently pauses)
Can you please allow waze to work correctly in multi window mode.Android 7.1.1 if you have Waze open in a multi-window configuration, it wouldn't actually work as expected. As long as it had focus and was the last app you interacted with, Waze would work as expected, updating your location and orientation on the map. But if you interacted with another app in multi-window, Waze would stop updating until you go back to it.
Similar issue with Google maps which just got fixed:

Előtérben marad iOS alatt/Stay in foreground in iOS
Kérem, hogy iOS alatt is lehessen beállítani ugyanúgy, mint az Androidos verzió alatt meglévő “Waze előtérben marad” funkciót! Android alatt futó waze-ben “Általános beállítások/Waze előtérben marad” gombbal lehet ezt beállítani, hogy mindig lásd, hívás közben is. Ez iOS 12.4 alatt futó 4.52.5 verziójú wazeben nem áll rendelkezésre sajnos.
Please be able to configure it on iOS as well as the “Waze stay on foreground” feature on Android! In waze running Android, you can set this with the "General settings / Waze stay in the foreground" button to always see it during a call. Unfortunately, this is not…

The problem with switching to night mode
I've encountered several issues with the automatic switching to night mode.
If Android Auto HiFi is not connected to the internet, it uses the daytime color scheme instead of the night one. When my Android phone connects wirelessly to the car using Android Auto, it doesn't automatically switch to night mode.1 vote -
Recent change has made reporting more difficult when using a selection wheel in Android Auto
Previously, rotating the selection wheel (non-touch screen operation) when on the map display all the way to the right would select the report icon and stop there. Since a recent update, it instead loops back to the first icon and goes through the selection again.
However, turning the scroll wheel all the way to the left still stops at the first icon and doesn't loop back around.
The previous operation made reporting things much easier, as it was possible to select the report icon by rotating the selection wheel to the right without having to look at the screen to…2 votes -
Affichage
Afficher en permanence l'adresse de destination en haut de l'écran. On a parfois des doutes sur la destination qu'on a choisi.
De plus, lorsqu'on saisie une destination un message propose d'activer le Bluetooth pour les zones de tunnels (perte de la connexion GPS), quand on clic dessus on ne trouve pas l'endroit où il faut cliquer pour activer. Il serait bien de préciser la manipulation.1 vote -
Hi dear waze team. Now we have highlighted lane on express way with 3 or more lane on the top of navigation screen, that very helpful .
Hi dear waze team.
Now we have highlighted lane indicators on the top of screen which is very helpful to drive in the express way with 3 or more lane. Thanks for this great improvement.
The only thing missing in this App is the Bluetooth and FM transmitter
With improving this two option, waze will be the top and best in the world.
Thanks1 voteGreat news! One of the most requested suggestions – Lane Guidance, is now available in Waze. Thanks for your suggestion. Drive safely!

Dark mode - black background
We need darker dark mode! Gray streets on black background, as the Android Auto screen is now too bright, when driving at night!

Share route from car screen
Add a button on the car screen to share route with a pre-selected favorite contact.
I only share route with my wife, but I do this everyday. Currently I must start and share the route on my phone before Android Auto connects to the car wirelessly. A simple button to share to one contact using one app (eg: Whatsapp) would be very useful.

Waze app does not display correctly recently on Android phone
For some reason the Waze app is not correctly displaying on my pixel phone anymore. The speed limit and actual speed are in the middle of the screen versus off to the left where they used to be. When a dialog box pops up such as police reported ahead and your speed is covered up, it's not a good day. Please revert to an older version to prevent this loss of function when it's needed most

An Instant Mute Button on the Screen
When I press the Waze speaker icon on the radio navigation screen when using Android Auto a list of options pops up. One of them is to turn the sound off. I would like just a simple mute button on the nav screen that instantly toggles the Waze audio off/on if I'm trying to listen to a news update and Waze is giving me detailed directions at the same time without having to select it from a list and taking my eyes off the road for an extended period.

Volvo V 60 crashes every time it starts with android automotive hooked up to iPhone
This crashes on two different Volvos every single time it starts. I must wait for it to restart or I must manually close the Waze app and restart it before it works properly. This occurs when the app is displaying in the drivers display.

Some bugs encountered with the application
I use Waze very frequently for my work. Both as a GPS and as an assistant for road hazards.
I've noticed a few anomalies in Android Auto.When I approach a speed camera, Waze informs me about it and the distance. As soon as I have passed the zone, the "Speed camera" indication remains on the screen and Waze does not provide any other information.
I have taken some pictures of the problem encountered. If you want them, let me know where I should send them.Thank you.

View map on mobile to select point on map, law enforcement
Similar to Google Maps interface, in which I can pin a point on the mobile app and start navigation on Android Auto. I frequently use Waze to safely navigate to reported accidents, debris and disabled vehicles. Waze reports are significantly more location-accurate than my dispatcher saying "Respond to the area of Exit 45 for a crash." Before the last update, I could force stop Waze on my phone, reopen the app to the map, pin a location next to the incident and start navigation, then reopen the app on Android Auto to navigate. With the latest update, I can no…

Ne pas afficher ou va t'on quand pn veut kuste afficher la carte
En mode paysage sur téléphone Android on a toujours une ligne "ou va t'on" ce qui reduit d'autant la visualisation de la carte quand on veut simplement voir la route sans avoir un itinéraire précis. Ce serait bien de pouvoir enlever cette ligne à la demande
