Searching when the car is in park. previous car I was able to type the address in when the car is in park. Now requires parking brake ON
Searching when the car is in park. previous car I was able to type the address in when the car is in park. Now requires parking brake ON
For example in the past I used to pull over, and then enter address. Now It requires the parking brake which is just odd.
Google Maps does not have the same issue

It's a good idea to have the option of adding a warning that the area, street or neighborhood etc by where will move the car is DANGEROUS
24 hours ago I had an accident that marked my life incredibly , I waze shot by an alternate route as the main highway was closed by arrangements . I collided and the worst was not that was in the area where I crashed . I do this because I want to know if there is any way that the waze app you can incorporate a notice as DANGER, DANGER ZONE between another , and so one assesses whether or not to go for it. Because I am a driver which much of the time with the app is run,…

Be a car standard
Volkswagen (in 2015) is known to build a good drivetrain and a safe car, but their electronics has been behind the times. Can Waze become their navigation standard? VW would not need to employ so many people in a marginally profitable area (at best) and clients get updates for years to come.

Bring back the old car icons
Bring back the old car icons. These new blocky icons are hideous, childish, and quite stupid looking.

The Green line - (Energy/ Gasoline)
The green line- When a Wazer checks optional routes (and also in the preferences/initial destination route) the most energy efficient route shall be marked as the "Green Line".The Wazer should provide Waze with its car model, design, and year so Waze could calculate the energy consumption.There is a difference between the routes because of distance, time, type of ride etc.At the end of the ride the Wazer will be provided with estimated carbon footprint.From Waze perspective - much more data... and from there you can think about many products and ways to monetize it

Vignette control car warning
In HU mostly on highways there are multiple vignette / tax and customs car, checking traffic and are roadside, but always reported as police which is very misleading. Should be an option for some other type, because most of the police warnings are false alarm.

A car/driver could use some help in 300m
So many times we see car on the roads, specifically the highway, but we are navigating to fast to stop last minute to help them out. Although many of us would be glad to help out, we just can't stop as we saw them too late. If there was a way people in need could put in a request (sometimes, just not being alone, panicking is already a big help - having an extra fluo jacket, need of water, lift to closest gas station if in the middle of nowhere etc.) that would send an alert "a car is pulled…

KITT from Knight Rider voice pack
So, it'd be nice to have a "Customize your drive" option that is all Knight Rider...KITT as the voice; KITT as the car icon on the map; And maybe a Knight Rider-y design, to look like KITT's voice modulator or part of the dashboard. Something cool like that...If this is not achievable, at least just the voice would be cool. And it would HAVE to be William Daniels. Either re-record his voice or use the ones he recorded for the Mio Knight Rider GPS back in like 2008. I'm not sure if it would be possible to use those voice…

Default app for car dock action
When I put my Galaxy S3 in my car dock android automatically launches a default app. My only two choices are Google S Voice, Google navigation app or the Verizon navigation app. I want to chose Waze. Please make it an option to be launched when a phone is put in a car dock.

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.

Speed before sharp curves or in rough weather
Alert when a user drive to fast before curve in the road or a coming intersection.
Waze knows the speed of the car and "knows" that we are getting close to a sharp curve in the road , alert in that case would be very important . Especillay in a rough weather.5 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Allow planned drives to show up via Android Auto
Ever since an update came out earlies this spring, Waze has taken a giant step backwards. In the following updates they have remedied a few things (except the awful user interface via Android Auto)...and they still haven't added back key features when using Waze in the car with Android Auto...like PLANNED DRIVES. Duh!

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.

App closure after Apple CarPlay shutdown
Please fix the app so it automatically closes after the car shuts off with Apple CarPlay. It used to do this until about 6-12 months ago. It’s annoying that Waze stays running when you get out of your car, draining your phone battery.

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?
