Android Auto default on Go button when POI selected
I have a car with touchpad/buttons to select with no touchscreen.
When I search for a point of interest (usually through voice commands) and select from the list, it displays information about the poi, but I need to move the cursor all the way to the Go button to start the trip. This is a hassle without a touchscreen.
Can this be defaulted to the Go button to make the selection quicker and safer?
Alternatively, can we start the trip ("Go") with a voice command?

Accident icon
Accident icon is not easily recognizable in version 3.6 specially while you are driving and only take a glance in the phone's screen. New icon is pretty similar to traffic jam reports. I think it could be redesigned as a overturned car, or adopt the design used in older versions.

Place NEW favorites at the top of the list.
I always add new favorites to the list while NOT connected to the car. Then, when I connect, via Android Auto, I attempt to select my NEW favorite. However, it is located at the very bottom of a very long list. Sure would like to see NEW Favorites at the top of the Favorites list

Automatic Favorites
If I deviate from my route and stop for any length of time, Waze should prompt me to add as a favorite place when I resume. For example if I stop at grocery store, car wash, gym or any other place on way home I'd like to have I my favorite places to add as stop on future trips. Likewise if I'm on a trip and stop at great place to eat, I might want to stop next time.

3D Touch menú to change vehicle type
I love motorcycle mode. Half the time I'm on the motorcycle, half the time I'm in a car. I wish there was a 3D Touch menu to change vehicle type because I'm changing from car to motorcycle many times a week.
2 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already has an ability to easily switch between Motorcycle and Car mode.
On iOS simply click on your car arrow to open the switch vehicle type menu. On Android you can do same, or you can call out this menu by clicking “Car info” at the bottom of the screen. -
Alerting when a crosswalk is coming up whether it’s marked or unmarked
I’d like it if waze shows and alerts you when a crosswalk is coming up whether it’s marked or unmarked at an intersection because here in North America I hear and see too many pedestrians getting hit by cars and injured and another thing I had in mind is I would like it if waze shows and alerts you when you’re approaching a cyclist so that way if you didn’t see it ahead of time you’d know when to slow down

switch car types in iOS
Hi, I’m using Waze both with my private car and with my motorcycle.
In Israel, the vehicle type actually affects the routing itself (motorcycles can legally use different lanes and routes), so switching quickly is very important.
Right now, every time I want to switch the vehicle type, I need to go deep into the Settings → Navigation menu, and it takes multiple taps.Is it possible to add a faster way to switch vehicle type?
For example:
• a quick toggle button on the main screen
• a Siri Shortcut / Shortcuts action
• or a URL scheme parameter…1 vote -
Self service Adblue on road for VL
Adblue is now mandatory on many diesel VL.
I suggest to add the possibility to indicate that the car ask for adblue.
We could find a gas station who have a self service adblue on the map or on the road to our target.5 votes -

Audio ducking (lowering volume)
Could we kindly request the option to disable audio ducking, similar to other maps? I would prefer to manage the volume myself and not have music or audio automatically muted. This happens when both audio for Waze and music/audio books are played from the car speakers. I do not have the same issue with Google Maps.
Thank you for considering this request.

Hazard on the road
When there is a “hazard” on the road, Waze tells me in audio that there is a hazard and only on screen will identify the specific hazard I.e. car on side of road. It would be great if Waze said out loud the specific hazard so I didn’t need to take my eyes off the road to look at the screen.

maximum speed
I use waze with different vehicles so that the
personalized ETA is still wrong when changing from car to moped. Entering a maximum speed for my current travel or for each vehicle type would be very useful.7 votes -
automatic accident
If your car comes to a sudden halt or veers off course dramatically and unexpectedly, have waze pop up with a message asking if you have been in a accident. The message must stay for 5 seconds, and if you do not cancel it or press the "NO" button, it automatically alerts a nominated friend and sends them the last known location

possibility to insert car dimensions
I would like to insert my car parameters ( I have 18 tons camper) with bigger dimensions, just to avoid low bridegs and weight limited roads, if we can get it, I'm sure the truck drivers will start to use waze as well.

CarPlay + Waze / Cluster Turn-by-turn not showing like it does on Android Auto
When using Waze with CarPlay on a vehicle with turn by turn display on cluster, the Waze don't show any direction, while Android Auto display a full direction.
The car in question is a 2024 GWM Ora 03, but the same happens on a 2023 BMW 320i.
Also, I don't know if this specific Cluster/CarPlay API is available for other apps, but this only works using Apple Maps. Waze or Google Maps doesn't show any direction on the cluster while using Apple car Play.
