Add an option to fix the display orientation
When you go through a bad road with stones and stuff, the symbian nokia N8 shakes a lot, even with a proper holder. Then the waze client freezes and goes off. This is even turning off all other programs, avoiding processing overcharge.
I don't know if it's a client problem, but seems to be.
You could add a button to fix the desired view, horizontal or vertical, in case you don't want your waze-client display orientation switching all the time 'till die.

New map face display
My vote is to go back to the old map display. We’re only the route you’re taking is highlighted or colorized. All these colors on the map display gets very confusing specially, when you’re traveling down the highway at 60, 70 and yes even 80 miles an hour you got to be able to look real quick and now you have to stop and kind of look at it. Sorry if this doesn’t read well, but I am using voice display. Thank you.

Map display for CarPlay
Please make the map display for CarPlay more floating and gliding, similar to how it glides in google maps for CarPlay. Love your map and it’s much much better than google, just the graphics needs to be nicer and smoother please and thank you!

Display High Crash Locations
Would it be possible to display high crash areas on my display? We see traffic jams, and shorter routes and even speed traps ahead on my device. Maybe you can show high crash areas ahead as well.
The information is free and attainable in Maine. Is this something Waze would like to explore?Tom Reagan
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.

Use ⛽icon to display station prices along route.
Add a ⛽ icon to main screen - when tapped, it would display gas prices from stations along your route within the next 50mi. Tap again to toggle off. Select preferred fuel type in settings. Current options are not driver friendly.

improve display showing more upcoming directions
Display the next 3 turns and distances on the main screen / apple car play screen / android auto screen
2 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Display setting fix.
Waze app is not changing display settings from night to day or day to night when you select auto. Every time I have to do it manually. Please fix it.

Separate quick access components, especially compass, for display
I want the compass to always be visible, but to do so requires having ALL quick access stuff visible, and I don't want the display settings shortcut or zoom controls always showing. These different components should be able to be individually enabled or disabled for full-time display. I also like the idea someone else had in another suggestion of using the recenter icon/button as a compass to reduce clutter.
1 voteBy default compass is displayed on screen tap.
To always show it go to Settings – Map display – Quick access – Always show. In Map display settings it is also possible to lock North. -
Display tunnels as hashed/broken lines
Tunnels should be displayed on the Waze client as hashed or broken lines.
Currently, tunnels are displayed on maps almost the same way as roads. This is confusing as you are not exactly sure when to turn, as Waze makes it look like there is another road to pass before you turn. If tunnels were shown to be dramatically different to roads, it would make the navigation experience better for all users.

Carplay display is glitching
Simple idea: make the display refreshing often enough so that the app is useable… and make the “still there” button working…?

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.

The map should be able to display on the phone, even if CarPlay is active
Please can there be the option of keeping navigation running on the phone screen, even if CarPlay is enabled. CarPlay Display Units are often down low (where car radios used to be), and looking at that as your satnav is dangerous and distracting. Keeping the map on the phone will enable safer driving and a happier Apple and Waze customer base

Decouple map display from light sensor
The current version of Android Waze always uses the information from the light sensor to display dark or light mode. My car doesn't have a light sensor (even though it is a 2023 model). Therefore, my map display is always dark, making it very hard to see in bright sunlight. Could you make it possible for users to select whether to use the information from the light sensor or not? Thank you!

when connected to carplay would be great to have graphic map displayed on iPhone instead of being forced to display turn-by-turn.

Improve display for alternate routs
When alternate routs are displayed, the route description is displayed in small, grey, hard to read font. A larger and darker font would help.
This option of alternate routs is useful during drive to conclude if a suggested "exotic" route really save significant time.6 votes -
On screen alert display time needs to be increased greatly when getting close.
Being able to choose “still there”or not disappears from the display long before one can confirm the alert either way.
