Change interface back to old version for horizontal users
Old interface was much better in horizontal view. I use waze on my android Car unit that only can be used in horizontal mode. The icon is on the right side of the screen now with search on the left. The icon was much better in centre of the screen. Its now unusable and annoying to use in horizontal.

Waze speedometer is reading less than (<8 km/hr) the car speedometer.
Waze speedometer is reading less than (<8 km/hr) the car speedometer.
Is there any calibrating feature to correct the speed on the mobile screen display?
I am sorry, if this is a problem for my own mobile phone.
Thanking You…1 voteWith high probability this is not an issue of the mobile phone or app, but the issue of the car speedometer.

Xc40 recharge
Hi , I’m using a 2022 xc40 recharge p8 which using an android base automotive, is it possible to show the map details and navigation on dashboard screen instead of a symbol on it?
Since waze and google map are the same base navigation system, Google map can show it on the dashboard screen instead. Thanks for helping2 votes -

Get rid of splash screens after a drive is set
When I have selected my drive location, I don't want to see another 2 splash screen prompts 1) confirming that I want to drive there and 2) confirming that I want to take Route A out of 5 different options. I find it incredibly inconveniencing.

reduce size of alert box and still their box after iOS 16 update cannot see directions on screen
Since the iOS 16 update, the alert box is so large on the left side that you can’t see your next turn or miles or anything until you click still there or not. I still need to be able to see directions with the alerts as it’s caused me to miss, turns quickly when it pops up or it makes me just click still there instead of actually waiting to see just to get the box to remove. Please show a way to reduce that alert box size or move it to the right corner. Thank you!!

Put the GUI back to how it was in the previous version
The new user interface looks childish, but more critically you guys seem that have forgotten that the primary purpose of Waze is navigation. There's an empty grey bar hiding the bottom 10% of the map, and whenever a road feature comes up the top of the map gets hidden, meaning that a full third of the map is obscured. A phone screen is small enough as it is - with a third of the map hidden navigation becomes really difficult! To top it all off, there's no way of getting rid of the top banner - there's just a greyed-out…

One select to report
To report an issue whilst driving is dangerous and requires 2 presses and some looking at the screen. Why not let driver press the report button just once, at an incident and when vehicle is stopped a reminder comes up on the screen to complete the report. Waze has already logged its location and the driver can then report the issue as normal.

Ability to turn off "tool bars". ie. Carpool, My Waze, and Search bars
We need a way to turn off these tool bars if not being used.
They make this app mostly unusable, especially in landscape orientation, as they take up a large part of the screen.
I don't carpool, i dont need the search bar on when I'm driving. Same for My Waze.
Just a small button to access this would be fine.
Please make a way to turn these off.2 votesThanks for your suggestion. Search bar automatically hides after around 30 seconds driving without navigation.

reporting vehicles on the side of the road
when reporting a vehicle on the side of the road, if the "vehicle stopped" icon were on the second screen and not buried, would be safer. 5 user inputs vs. a possible 3 - less time looking away from the road and at the map/device

progress bar
Hello, Your application is very good except for people who pollute the screen with cunning reports by making a police report while it is a danger zone. Problems recurrent to remedy. There is no progress bar in a danger zone when the phone is horizontal.

Obstacle overview in navigation mode
I love the overview I get when I start my journey. Very clear with the color coding in light blue with yellow, orange and red markings along the way, showing possible obstacles. I would though like to have this feature incorporated the whole time when I navigate. Sometimes, in mute mode, you miss important messages of hurdles ahead, and a thin strip of color coding directly below the black direction plate in the screen top would easily warn me visually of troubles on my path. In this way, I get a chance to plan an alternative route much earlier.

Contribution to avoid multiple accidents and make Waze a more important tool
The central idea is to interface a two-way communication between the application and the car's computer (this makes it easier when the vehicle has an integrated screen, which would allow Waze to access vehicle information. All this information is impulse electronics that activate lights, warnings or any device to generate corrections, low pressure in the tires, lack of fuel, defect in some mechanical part, etc. Etc. etc. the idea that is waze read them and interpret them as warnings, in this In this sense, the human time to carry out or interpret an emergency is reduced, this could generate…

Make trip info screen to refresh itself when opened with the ^ button.
Trip info window that opens with ^ button should refresh itself every time when it is called. Right now if I want to update it I have to stop navigation and close Waze and start it again and set my destination again.
Sometimes I want to look what is ahead without scroll the whole navigation map (which sometimes I do) and that distracts me from the road.
Sometimes I want to check how soon are the speed cameras or something else.
Currently trip info windows just shows static info from the beginning of navigation which is not convenient for long…1 vote -
Variable Speed Limit Camera Audio Cues
Hi, based in the UK here.
When a user drives in a variable speed limit zone on a motorway in the UK, Waze thinks the speed limit is 70 mph all the time when in fact the speed limits can be changed from anywhere between 20 mph and 70 mph.
These variable speed limit zones have several speed cameras that can detect speeding for a variety of speed limits.
When navigating on Waze, when approaching a speed camera the audio cue for alerting to speed cameras does not play when driving within the speed limit shown in Waze, only when…

Less clicks for Carplay reports
It takes three clicks in Carplay to make a report. However, with FlitsMeister, you only need two clicks for the most common warnings. Making a report takes too long now, and since you're driving, you can't look at your screen for an extended period.

Allow us (the users) to turn off &/or permanently disable "Drive with The Fraggles"
Every day I say "No thanks" to that fraggles thing but it continues to reappear. Please allow us users to turn off that cutesy crap. I'm not a teenager, I'm an adult and do not want this feature and never will. It takes us precious screen space and is absolutely of no use to me...and probably most adults. I appreciate others may want it, so I understand showing these things, but they should be able to be disabled so those of us that don't want to see it aren't forced to. Please let us be able to make that choice.…
