Hazards voice input
The hazards should be voice input via phone. Wake WAZE with a command such as Waze hazard, then state the hazard. I don't report a lot of hazards since it's a distraction to look at my phone to select a screen of options.
Thank you. For the consideration.

Extra Opt-Out Box
I'd like to suggest that the 'my waze' and 'where to' boxes that now automatically sit at the bottom of the screen have a opt-out check box in the display section. As they are most annoying when using Waze without needing or wanting to input a destination.

When I arrive at my destination it just says “you have arrived at your destination” but it doesn’t tell me what the house number is.
When I arrive at my destination it just says “you have arrived at your destination” but it doesn’t tell me what the house number is. It also does not say the house number at the top of the screen if I copied it from my calendar. It should be in BIG numbers at the top of the screen and say out loud “you have arrived.. look for 8212 amhurst st. 8-2-1-2”

Toggle Map View to reduce info screens
I think it should be a toggle option to increase map view and reduce/minimize turn by turn directions and ETA info size. These two information displays take up a large portion of the viewable scree when full screen. The minimized/reduce view would be greatly reduced to a single line. A user could touch the single line and then the view go back to normal, if needed or desired.

Carplay issue
I have a 2021 Honda. When I disconnect from carplay after arriving at destination and reopen waze for trip home, waze is “asleep” and then shows my car at some place in the middle of a street I was on close to destination but not at the destination. I then have to restart Waze and then calculate my trip. I have to choose my route before connecting with iphone cord because route options don’t show on carplay screen. Very frustrating.

iPhone.
Suggestion: app can push brightness to max like passbook or Starbucks app for daytime colors, possible user preference? I find it an inconvenience if the iPhone is adjusted for normal screen brightness for the interior of a car, but this isn't bright enough for ease of viewing when driving.

Economic mode
Hello,
The last time, when I used Waze, I have the opportunity to switch on the economic mode. Thank to what the brightness of the screen decreased during the paths without change of direction. It was a very good idea, because the energy consumption of your application is very High.
Do you intend to re-enter this option? Or allow the screen to turn off between the instructions between long paths ?2 votes -
Easier way to report an incident
I have an suggestion to make it easier and faster to report an incident.
On the map screen above "Where To?", have "report an incident", tap that and show all the options (traffic, accident, road hazard etc.). When passing something in the road, it's too difficult to find the proper screen to post it when you're still near it (especially on a highway or high traffic road).

Waze car icon display fix
When using Waze with iPhone 14 PRO on Sync 4A in 2023 Ford Edge and a route is selected, the car icon is cut off on the bottom of the screen when using AppleCarplay wireless and the Sync screen is set to the large display. Please have it shift a little more upward as to not cut off part off the icon showing where your vehicle is on the road.

Removal of turn by turn view via auto android via phone
Could you adjust the phone screen when connected to android auto, main screen on the display in the car, the turn by turn to be removed so you can view the navigation on your phone rather than the display.
Honestly looking down rather that looking across slightly seems alot more safer when driving. I'm resorting to not connecting my phone through the usb connection due to this change.2 votes -

Journey playback would be useful as appeared on the screen during the journey

Changing directions due to traffic
When Waze changes current route due to traffic conditions, the splash screen that says why only remains on the screen a very short time. It needs to be on the screen longer to be read. Perhaps stays there until user acknowledges it's been read.

A simple 3 route choise window before "Go"
Add a 3 split screen with map overview of route choises instead of automatically taking the shortest and presentinf just the "Go" screen
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.

Traffic status sidebar on a route
It would be very useful to add to the navigation screen, as happens with traffic jams, a bar that always shows us the traffic status on the screen, identical to the one we see when clicking on route summary but as I say, always on the screen on the same side. than that of traffic jams and that it would be updated by adding problems later without having to touch the screen to see it.

Audio alerts for speed and red light cameras
My audio alerts for speed and red light cameras stopped working a few months ago. I'm running waze directly on my phone (Google pixel 7) with the latest version of Android OS and waze app installed. My settings for alerts are correct. I see the flashing camera on the map and text alert on the screen but audio alerts are not working. I live in NYC where cameras are on every other block. Constantly monitoring the phone screen for visual alerts while driving is annoying and dangerous. I see lots of similar posts with replies from waze that…
