CarPlay UI Improvements
1st Make the Confirmation / Not there road notification buttons to be in opposite screen location and not right on top of the other to avoid “fat fingers” (common on bumpy roads with touchscreen interfaces).
2nd Add route selection information to include if journey has tolls or not, similar to smartphone version

Waze is reminds of the most common hazards
Hi everyone! I would like to Waze the most used reports remains "top" for example, I use a lot "car stopped on the low side," although it will Waze detects and leaves in the foreground, to avoid have too many unnecessary to manipulation. (Sorry it's a google traduction, I'm french)

Stop avoiding intersections with stoplights and routing to dangerous intersections.
I drive rideshare and I am constantly routed away from stoplights only to end up a very busy intersection that Waze wants me to cross or turn left onto a super busy cross-street that have low visibility due to cars parked along the side or large shrubbery. There is usually no way to turn around and I am stuck with having to wait for quite a long time for a safe time to cross or turn into high speed traffic. It seems to me the app is trying to avoid stoplights and I have no way of turning off the…

westbound interstate 40 Ingram Blvd exit
westbound interstate 40 Ingram Blvd should exit 279A Traffic should NOT exit from 40 at exit 5 because they have to cross 3 lanes of traffic in the span of less than 100 yards. This is a VERY dangerous maneuver and the scene of several fatal accidents trying to make this exit.

Police avoidance
Like when a jam ahead is getting worse, Waze should tell you “police reported ahead. Do you want to divert? (2 more minutes)”. This should be toggleable in the settings just like speed alert is

Modify Waze CarPlay
Waze in CarPlay does not correctly visualize the routes to choose them, it does not correctly show the distance, nor does it show the costs of tolls or highways, that information should be available on the CarPlay screen, since according to current laws you cannot take your cell phone while driving.

Lane suggestions
Recently went on a road trip where google maps told me what lane to be in when I was exiting the highway but Waze just said exit.
My understanding is that Waze determines if the situation necessitates telling you what lane to be in but shoes it visually.
I personally use a voice navigation system so I don't HAVE TO LOOK at a screen while navigating through traffic. This is especially important in places I am unfamiliar with. It might be easy for locals to know to go directly left, and your data might show that most cars go directly…

New speed alert mode
It would be nice if app can get something like new speed limit mode, allerting us (by sound) every 1/2/3 sec about excessed speed limit all the time, until car decrease speed. It will be very helpfull to avoid tickets and points but especially make road more safety.

I've received advertising messages via the inbox from Claro, a Phone Company . I would like to avoid spam from other users.
Anti-spam filter instead of disabling the message system.

Add tollbooth locations from menu
In South Africa, we have a number of toll booths on our major roads. Would be very informative to know where they are.
1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

High occupancy lane
Waze prompts drivers to leave a high occupancy car lane. The app should ask if you have more than 1 person in the car.

Your new app is BAD. THE “plan a drive” is buried, there still isn’t an easy way to add a stop. I’ve quit using Waze as my regular map.
Make the app ACCURATE, and easy to use, plan a drive, change starting location, correct lanes to be in.- NO, I can’t “ stay in the HOV lane” , and exit the freeway at the same time!
I can’t be in the leftmost turn lane, and exit right to the freeway!
I’d like it to be easy to use-change start location, add a stop, maybe even help me route a drive- which stop in which order ( start and stop location, with 2-3 stops on the way)1 vote -
"We have a shorter way" - Option available "Okay"
I intentionally choose NO TOLLS when I travel. It is less expensive and usually a more scenic route. I have been having trouble that the We have a shorter way pops up and I don't want to choose Okay because I already have the route I want so I ignore thinking that must default to keep as I'm going.
Seems it does it anyway because all of a sudden I'm on toll roads. I think you should have a yes or no option.
I also found out then when you choose a route (perhaps no toll as an example;…

Resident zones
Providing a function so that you can avoid prohibited resident zones would be great. For example: Sint Niklaas in Belgium has many prohibited zones!

Provide an auto-reroute disable function.
Provide an auto-reroute disable function. I was going through Atlanta and routed off of I-75 HOV lane (75 mph) to surface streets, only to be routed back on to I-75 slow lane (10-15 mph). That cost me about 15 minutes trying to get back to the HOV lane.

Let me view routes while using CarPlay
New update has disabled viewing different routes on phone, feature was very helpful as it displayed toll prices.

make alerts omnidirectional
Alert users to incidents on both sides of the road when there is no divider on the road. On two lane highways voice alerts for police and accidents are directional. Meaning it only alerts you to reports that were made in the direction you are traveling. It should alert you to all reports on the road regardless of which direction you’re heading. Helpful for police and accidents when they could affect both lanes.
