Routex Fuel and Charge card support
Many car leasings in Germany are supported by Routex PB + ARAL fuel and charge card. Routex is spanning on a network of charging providers beyond just BP and Aral, but I have not found a list that allows me to enter these into the charging provider list. Any way you could add Routex to your menu of charging points? That would help many users in at least Germany and I also think Austria, if I am not mistaken. Thank you for considering it.

Low visibility, not fog
There is the option for Bad Weather > Fog. This doesn’t always apply. It could be fog, but also snow squalls, general snow, smoke (wildfires), heavy rain, etc. Could a general Low Visibility selection be offered?

We need the road blocked button back. There is no way of signalling that a road is blocked and no way through.
There used to be a road blocked button. Now only lanes blocked. I have numerous examples of Waze showing a route through a blocked road. Alerts on road works or lanes blocked but still we a guided through where a road is blocked.

Dragon icon features.
Thought it would be neat if other members appeared as sheep while using the red dragon or toothless icons or if they shot a little flame while passing other users on the map.

multistop saved routes
Every weekday morning I drop my daughter off at school on my way to work. I set my work address in waze first and then "add a stop" and put in my daughter's school. It would be nice to have an option to set saved route with multiple stops so that I could select it each morning in one step.

Move control button to right hand side on right hand drive vehicle vehicles in Australia
Randomly sometimes the reporting buttons come up on my right hand side of screen close to my steering wheel on right hand drive car in Australia but doesn’t stay there. It usually opens up on the left-hand side which is a bit far to reach across the car to work anything can this be made? So it stays on the right hand side of the screen for a right hand drive car in Australia.

Turn by turn on headup display (windshield)
Latest update 5.14.1.0 still does not enable turn by turn to show on the head up display (on winshield). There was a post that waze just needs to flip a switch. Google and apple maps already have it on. Can you guys please enable it? https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-waze-suggestion-box/suggestions/50043126-prioritize-full-carplay-integration-hud-instrum

Reducing Redundant User Click Confirmation Fatigue
The current Waze user experience is hindered by an excess of interruptive confirmation requests, which compromises both safety and efficiency, violating the principle of "what if it was simple."
Core Issues:
Navigation Initiation: Upon selecting a destination, Waze requires multiple unnecessary confirmations (e.g., "Are you really navigating there?", route selection) instead of immediately starting guidance. This adds friction to the primary task and is unsafe to manage while driving.
Unnecessary Resume Prompts: When restarting the app, Waze redundantly asks, "Are you still driving to X?" The app should automatically resume navigation if the user is actively moving and remains within a coarse radius or direction of the planned route.
Safety and Goodwill: These excessive confirmations interrupt the user flow, decrease the feeling of application responsiveness, and force the driver to interact repeatedly with the screen, directly decreasing road safety and user goodwill.
Recommendation:
Prioritize the "just work" methodology by eliminating unnecessary default confirmations. If these "nanny" prompts are required for certain users, consolidate them into a single, easy-to-access opt-out setting to ensure a safe, responsive, and uninterrupted driving experience.

Funcion cambio tamaño visualizacion
Hola, llevamos unos años, que muchos usuarios estamos actualizando los gps integrados del coche por pantallas android más modernas, así como usuarios que no disponian de gps integrados están instalando pantallas android.
Los usuarios de waze se dividen en tres tipos, con gps integrado moderno, los que usan el smarfone teléfono y los que hemos instalado una nueva pantalla android. Para los dos primeros el tamaño de visualización está optimizado, pero para los usuarios con nuevas pantallas android no, y es una lotería.
Esas pantallas llevan un software predefinido, que no permite jugar con el tamaño de la visualización de las aplicaciones.
Con un tamaño de 9 pulgadas los menús se quedan de un tamaño tan reducido que es imposible contribuir a dar en marcha al icono de avisos en carretera.
El mapa de visualización de calles en ruta es muy grande aparecen muchísimas calles de la zona pero muy pequeñas, exagerando como una vista de todo un barrio. El autozoom acerca por unos momentos algo pero aún y todo es más extenso de lo que sería una vista generalizada del mapa de la zona.
También la flecha o el icono del vehículo se muestra a parte de diminuto, en el borde inferior de la tablet.
También no se si por la gran perspectiva dependiendo de los giros y el recorrido en algunos momentos se llega a perder la imagen del recorrido al esconderse por la parte inferior de la tablet.Es una pena que no exista opción de poder ajustar la visualización ya que no hace posible usar la aplicación.
Somos muchos los usuarios que nos encontramos en esta situación y creo que es un error dejar sin solución a una parte importante de la comunidad.
Cada día somos más los usuarios en esta situación.
Una pena que después de tantos años waze falle en sus dos bases más importantes, la de la comunidad y la de tener una interfaz sencilla y clara.
Los usuarios de waze somos unos usuarios un poco más inquietos, y colaboradores y más propensos a instalar gps android.
Entiendo que es un cambio tecnicamente complejo, pero creo que necesario para no perder a una parte importante de la comunidad.

Road labels bigger
Dear Waze Support Team,
I am writing to propose an enhancement to the visibility of road labels within the Waze app and its Android Auto integration. Currently, the road labels and directions displayed are often quite small, making them difficult to read at a glance. This can lead to distraction and may impact driving safety.
By increasing the font size and improving the clarity of these road labels, we can significantly enhance user experience and safety, both in the main app and on Android Auto. This adjustment would be especially beneficial for users with visual impairments or those driving in challenging conditions.
Thank you for considering this suggestion. I am confident that these improvements will make Waze even more user-friendly and safer for everyone.
Best regards,

Request for Satellite Map View in Waze
Hello Waze Support Team,
I’m writing to request that Waze add an option to view the map in satellite mode. The app currently only shows the default map style, and having a satellite view would be very helpful for navigation and for recognizing locations more accurately.
Many navigation apps offer both standard and satellite map modes, and I believe this feature would greatly improve the user experience in Waze.
Thank you for considering my suggestion.
Kind regards,

After IOS update from 18 to 26 the size of informations are too big at CARPLAY, I'm sure to old and smal car midia screen with less than 6”
After IOS update from 18 to 26 the size of informations are too big at CARPLAY, I'm sure to old and small car multimedia screen with less than 6 inches this is so hard to use, you guys have to have to implement size screen option or characters size options, for example to chose rote options is impossible to see, and in the IOS 18 version was perfect. My car is a Civic G10 and multimedia is one Panasonic .... Think about, some people haven't new cars with big screens!!!!!! Compare the settings between IOS 18 and 26, to me 18 is 100% better experience to those users like me!!!!

Permanent “End of Pavement” Alert
In several regions, especially on state highways and rural roads, there is an abrupt transition in pavement—for example, the end of the asphalted section and the beginning of a dirt or basalt-stone road. These sudden surface changes can catch drivers by surprise, particularly during low-visibility hours, adverse weather conditions, or on higher-speed roads.
Technical and Road Safety Justification:
Changes in pavement type can pose significant risks to drivers, such as:
Rear-end collisions, when the vehicle ahead suddenly slows upon noticing the change in pavement;
Loss of control and roadway departures, due to loose gravel, irregularities, or reduced traction on dirt or basalt surfaces;Increased braking distance, especially when transitioning from asphalt to a more unstable surface.
A similar situation is already recognized by road authorities, and several highways physically signpost “End of Pavement.” The alert would follow the same usability logic and importance as the current “Sharp Curve,” “Complex Intersection,” and other warnings already implemented in the app.Implementation Proposal:
Create a new type of permanent alert that allows editors to map points where the following occurs:
End of asphalt pavement, or
Transition to gravel/basalt stones/compact dirt.This alert would be displayed to drivers with adequate advance notice, allowing for planned speed reduction and improved operational safety, aligning with good practices in road signage and accident prevention.
