Bugs in the new version
After android auto/waze was updated to the latest version, I see many bugs there:
1) When I disconnect the phone from the car, application remains working on the phone. In previous version it wasn't the case;
2) Hey google is not working anymore on the new version. On older version understood voice commands;
3) New black squares on the screen hides half of the route? Why have you added them? Maybe it would be better to add it to transparent box?
4) If you enjoy the current layout, maybe the user can choose, which layout should stay on his screen?…5 votes -
The ETA on the shared route (My Drive) website is no longer visible on older browsers
The ETA is visible only for a very short time before the map is overlaid. Older browser is the default browser of an older Android phone (Samsung with Android 2.3) and IE9.
Also tried the current Firefox and Chrome versions, and both are OK.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, a live map is available as a web version, which you can use to see real time traffic reports. Search for Waze live map.

Waze app for Adroid 7
I recently replaced my Android 4.2 phone with a new Android 7 (Nougat) phone and to my dissappointment that there is not a Waze app available for my phone. Waze is such a useful navigation tool, now I have use a second rate nav aid.

Route list as secondary display
I like how on Apple Carplay the iPhone is used to display the route list. Can this be implemented with Android Auto? Also, is there a way to display the route list in Android Auto? This is a big feature that seems to be missing.

Allow for non numeric numbers in address for places.
Today twice I tried entering two business's that were not already on map. Because I was not allowed to use the "-" (dash symbal) to represent the suite number, technically the address was NOT completely correct. In a large complex that could be only way to find a business. You already allow numeric keypad to come up for inputting so why not allow the minus key to actively work as well. It also causes you to earn less points because it thinks you are inputting same address as entered by a previous user. I was inputting from my Android phone…

Make the "speed camera" warning smaller in landscape
Hi :-)
I've been using Waze for a long time and I enjoy using it a lot.However lately the bar that shows arrival time has grown, leaving less space for the map.
That's not the worst though. The worst is that, when nearing a speed camera or speed enforcement zone, the warning covers almost half the screen, pushing the speedometer behind the directions. As you can maybe surmise, I'd really like to be able to see how fast I'm going when nearing a speed camera.
I use the app in landscape because that's the least intrusive way to fix…

Add Multitouch Support for Waze on CarPlay (iOS 26)
Starting with iOS 26, Apple officially added multitouch support for CarPlay apps (confirmed on Apple’s developer website).
However, Waze still doesn’t support multitouch gestures such as pinch-to-zoom — which makes map navigation less intuitive and even unsafe while driving.Currently, zooming in or out requires multiple taps, forcing drivers to take their eyes off the road.
This is not only inconvenient but also reduces overall safety.It’s especially surprising because:
On Android Auto, Google Maps already supports multitouch, and it works great — smooth, natural, and safe.
Even in the Waze mobile app (without CarPlay), when the phone is mounted…

Alternate routes color text
On the alternative routes page, on an Android phone, reading the best route information is difficult because the text and green background are bright. I would like you to improve the contrast, maybe changing the text to black.

Waze felhasználása vezérlésre
Mivel a navigáció pontos hely adatokkal rendelkezik, ezért fel lehetne használni gépjármű, más eszközök vezérlésére. Így például mivel a KRESZ 44 § 8. bekezdése alapján "Lakott területen kívüli úton a forgalomban részt vevő gépkocsit nappali menetjelző lámpával vagy tompított fényszóróval ki kell világítani" igy erre való figyelmeztetés vagy vezérlést be lehetne építeni a szoftverbe. Ugyanígy elterjedt ha valaki hazaér akkor egy x km körben "vezérlőjelet" küldjön ki a navigáció a garázs/kertkapu nyitására. Ez a vezérlés akár történhet valami bluetooth-os wifi-s, de akár ma újra népszerű Tone-DTMF adatátvitel segítségével is.

Allow the app to work without google play services/store/post it on github
As Google will be breaking normal downloading and forcing a lot of android users to use the app store (which is already a pain), and if this happens a lot of users who use android exclusively for the lack of restrictions will move away from android to open source forks which possibly won't even support google services at all...
Please post a version of Waze on github with its own internal services/dependencies! (Similar to how it works on Apple, no?)
Clippy grows larger every day...

Show as Navigation Option
Waze does not show as a navigation optiot in the Google Navigation System. Other apps, such as, Scout, Google navigation, Google Maps, show as navigation options. Waze does not appear on the Android Navigation option screen.
It should be an easy fix for the Android system to recognize Waze navigation.

Incident/slowdown on map view when selecting route
About a year ago, when using the map view to select a route on the Android app, you were able to see traffic slowdowns. This was super helpful when trying to decide which route to use. Currently, when you view the list, it shows traffic speeds by color and incidents/hazards/police, but there is no way to know exactly where the accident or slowdown is located. If you look at the map view, the proposed route is all one color, and doesn't show slowdowns or incidents.
It would be great to at least see the orange, yellow, and red colors for…

Userabolity improvement
Please provide an option whereby I can get rid of the wear too line or the my waze line on my phone. It takes up way too much space to have both of them and it didn't always used to be that way. I am running android 12 it's android 12 on a Samsung S22 and this was the same thing that happened on my android sandroid Samsung S5. 5. This is really annoying and you're forcing me to look for an alternative to waze

Display bug onAndroid Auto
I can't find a way to notify a bug, so here it is as an improvement proposal:
When I plan a drive on the phone before plugin the phone to the car, I don't get anymore alerts and display of speed in Android Auto.
If Waze is off on the phone when I connect to the car, and I start the itinerary in Android Auto, everything is fine.
I connect using USB-C cable, and phone is Fairphone 3 with Android 10, but I saw it on other phone brands as well1 vote -
Orientações de direções no celular
Aplicativo Waze é mal elaborado para o Android Auto em comparação com a Apple CarPlay.
No Android Auto não é possível obter as orientações de direções no celular enquanto está ligado na tela do carro. Isso causa muito desconforto.
Na Apple CarPlay o Waze está completamente redondo e sem apontamentos à fazer.1 vote
