Speed limit/autovelox notification when screen off
It would be great to have a speed limit notification and autovelox with a big pop up (like the speed limit signal 50 km/h) even when the screen is off. Often when the smartphone is connected with bluetooth I cannot hear the speed limit alarm. I'll be always aware of the speed limit and autovelox on my route saving battery!

BT, Waze audio message presilence and setting (secs)
Please add presilence and related paremeter (in seconds) in settings for Waze audio messages.
Beggining of Waze audio message is cut (around 2-3 seconds) if phone is not connected all the time to car bluetooth system and connects only during the message. For exampe I am listening car stereo system and waze connectes to car audio system BT only in case of message. This issue can be resolved by adding presilence to waze audio message and adding parameter in settings for the length of presilence (2-3 seconds should be enough).
Currently as workaround I am using Xposed framework on rooted…6 votes -
Missing the first part of the directions when connected to car bluetooth
With a previous update this started happening in one of my cars. The first audio that came out of the car speakers would be several seconds into the directions so you would hear for instance "turn right". You missed "in 1/4 mile". I just updated to ios14 and my other car is now doing it. It's disappointing Waze has chosen to ignore this issue. I was an early adopter but will be looking to Apple Maps in hopes of not having this issue. Waze is losing one of it's champions.

Use Waze app when connected to Android Auto
While connected to android auto you cannot use Waze on your phone, would be good to have the function of inputting addresses and cancelling routes, issue is to input anything from a phone you have to switch off Bluetooth or the car :(
Unfortunately using android auto in your car can be very tedious rather than simply doing it from your phone.

Sound to Car Infotainment Connection Test Button
Setting up / integrating WAZE with a car's infotainment system has a large number of variables with cable, Bluetooth and WiFi being examples. It would be really handy to have a test button that would run through WAZE's range of warnings to test such connections in a stationary vehicle.

obd2
Poderiam adicionar um plugin no Waze para se conectar ao OBD2 para usar a velocidade e a quilometragem real do veiculo, quando dentro de um túnel, ou até quando cai a conexão com o GPS, para poder postar um aviso, já vi carro parado em rota dentro do túnel em local perigoso, existem varios programas de obd2 e os aparelhos bluetooth estão baratos.

Add a car's engine coolant temperature display to the Waze screen
Many cars don't have a display on the dashboard, but can display the data via a Bluetooth connection with a wireless adapter in the OBD2 port.

Mute re-routing sound
The constant re-routing sound waze makes when I choose not to take the exact route she wants me to, or because I kiss a turn is loud in my Bluetooth and even though I have the sound turned down its still annoying. I know she is going to re-route me so I don't need that loud Beep she makes. No other GPS device does this. If we could please have an option to mute this, then that would be amazing. Thanks.
96 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Individual Volume Settings
Please implement a dedicated sound/volume setting allowing for volume to be increased to as loud or as low as wanted. Some vehicles and devices are having issues selecting louder volume for Waze, especially when using other infotainment features like Bluetooth music or CarPlay.

Waze to initiate pre-determined reply to texts when driving
I want waze to initiate a pre-determined text reply automatically when I am driving, note automatically, so it switches on and off according to when I am driving using Waze. I would set my reply to say: "I'm driving at the moment so please call me as I can't read your texts but can speak to you using bluetooth. This text has been sent to you by Waze navigation app."

Don't connect to the speaker when voice is muted
I like to listen to music streamed via bluetooth from my phone. While running waze, even though I have the spoken navigation disabled, every time directions would've been announced, the music volume dips briefly. It appears that waze is trying to attach to the speaker even though it isn't saying anything. Please have it check for being muted before taking control away from other applications that use the phone's audio.

Mudar o tipo de veículo no CarPlay
Actualmente não dá para alterar o tipo de veículo na CarPlay, apenas dá se o fizermos a partir do telemóvel. A minha ideia era implementar essa opção no Waze versão CarPlay. Ou até mesmo dar a opção de quando está ligado ao Bluetooth do carro mudar automaticamente para “veículo Privado “, quando está ligado ao Bluetooth da mota mudar automaticamente para “motociclo”.

autoplay
Add a feature that allows the app to automatically start when driving. A feature similar to spotify that starts music whenever it connects to the Bluetooth in my car.

Volume
When getting Navigation audio through my cars Bluetooth, I find that the Navigation volume is half or less than my cars music volume, so the Navigation voice sounds like it's being spoken by a mouse in comparison! I would like to see improvements made to the Navigation volume.

BUG: Using phone speaker option not working in CarPlay (latest iOS)
Waze should play sounds through the phone speakers when connected to CarPlay and when this setting is set in the Waze options. Situation right now is, that this option get fully ignored. This is bad when the phone outputs to a different audio device e.g. through bluetooth and the CarPlay sounds are muted. You have no change to get any audio from Waze in this situation. Please fix or at least also support output to different bluetooth device while connected to CarPlay.
