Thank you for creating such a wonderful navigation app!
I’ve been using Waze for quite a long time, and I truly appreciate the quality of your map service. It’s very user-friendly, thoughtful, and considerate, especially with its strong focus on driver safety. Even speed bumps are clearly alerted, which is impressive.
There are a few improvements we hope you could consider to make Waze even more widely used, helping more people travel safely and conveniently:
The Waze icon may feel cheerful, but it should also look more professional and clearly represent a navigation or map app. The current icon feels a bit too childish and doesn’t seem related to maps or directions at first glance.
Please consider working with Apple to enable navigation directions to be displayed on the car’s HUD when connected via CarPlay.
A satellite view mode would be very useful, as it provides a more realistic and familiar perspective.
Please add voice alerts such as “You are exceeding the speed limit” or “Please slow down” for speeding warnings. Simple alert sounds may not be noticeable enough, and drivers could unintentionally exceed the speed limit and face heavy fines.
We look forward to seeing these improvements in the near future.
Thank you again!

מניעת שכחת ילד ברכב
פיצ'ר "מצב ילד" - מניעה אקטיבית של שכחת ילדים (ללא מטרת רווח)
הצורך: התזכורת הנוכחית היא פסיבית וגורמת ל"עיוורון התראות".
הפתרון:
1. בתחילת נסיעה: הוספת מתג מהיר "יש ילד ברכב?" (יופיע חכם לפי שעות הגן/בית ספר).
2. בסיום נסיעה: האפליקציה תדרוש פעולה פיזית (אישור בסליידר) כדי לוודא שהרכב נסרק, ולא תסתפק בהודעה שנעלמת.
3. רשת ביטחון: התראה קולנית חריגה אם הנהג התרחק מהרכב מבלי שביצע את האישור.השורה התחתונה: הופכים את Waze מצופה מהצד לשותפה אקטיבית בהצלת חיים, באפס עלות חומרה למשתמש.

Suggestions to Improve Waze User Experience
Dear Waze Team,
My name is Fabio Martinez Coello, and I am a Colombian user who relies on your application on a daily basis. I would like to thank you for the great service you provide, which has become an essential tool for navigation.
Based on my daily experience, I would like to share some suggestions that could help improve the application and make it even more user-friendly:
1. Always display the programmed destination address:
It would be very helpful if the selected destination address remains constantly visible. Sometimes, due to typing errors or accidental input, an incorrect address is entered. Having the address always visible would allow users to quickly verify and correct it before reaching an unintended destination.
2. Avoid mixing languages in the interface:
When the application is set to English, some terms still appear in Spanish (such as “calzada,” “calle,” “sur,” “norte,” “oriente,” “occidente”). For a better user experience, the app should maintain consistency and avoid mixing languages.
3. Allow multiple stops in a route:
Currently, it is not possible to program multiple stops efficiently. It would be very useful to allow users to add several stops (ideally up to 10) within a single route.
4. Different colors for route segments:
When multiple stops are added, it would help to display the first segment in the current blue color and the remaining segments in different colors. This would reduce confusion and improve route visualization.
5. Ability to review each programmed stop:
Users should be able to click on any programmed stop and verify its exact address. This would help ensure that all destinations are correct before and during the trip.
I hope these suggestions are helpful and can be considered in future updates. Thank you for your continuous efforts to improve the application.
Kind regards,

Navigation distance decimal points not showing on digital gauge cluster in 2026 Subaru Crosstrek through Android Auto
On the 2026 Subaru Crosstrek (and I'm assuming other newer Subarus with the digital gauge cluster), the turn by turn navigation display in the corner of the cluster doesn't show decimal points on the distance to the next turn. This leads to the display just showing "1 miles" then "0 miles" until you get close enough for it to display in feet. This does work correctly on Google Maps, showing 1.1, 1.0, 0.9, 0.8, etc. so this does seem to be technically possible. Hopefully this can be looked at in the future

Inaccurate “Public transportation” Ticket Alerts for motorcycle-only routes
In Taiwan, many segments and turns (which aren’t public transportation lanes) are restricted to motorcycles only (24/7). However, the system currently assumes they are public transportation lanes by design and shows this pop-up.
As a result, when navigating through these routes, the app mistakenly shows a ‘Ticket Alert’ with a ‘Public transportation vehicles only’ warning. This causes a lot of confusion for users.
To improve the user experience, I suggest displaying a specific ‘Motorcycles Only’ warning when approaching routes restricted to motorcycles.
This would act as a great reminder for users who might have accidentally set their vehicle type to Motorcycle while driving a Private car or Taxi. Seeing this alert will prompt them to check their settings and switch to the correct mode if necessary.
Thanks!

Very irritating problem
I am using an iPhone 14. Waze constantly starts itself without me opening the app. This interrupts meetings phone calls video I’m trying to take and my sleep!
Can someone please tell me how I can prevent this from happening otherwise I will have to delete the app. I have used Waze for years and never had this happen before.1 voteThanks for reaching out.

Volume slide control needs to be the width of the screen
Volume slide control in Settings, Voice & Sound, needs to be the width of the screen on the iPhone to allow for easier and "finer" volume settings. I find it difficult to use the current slide control to where it is not too loud or too soft.
I would like the same wide volume slide bar to be on the Sound Settings pop-up screen when navigating, where you click on the speaker while navigating, and that screen has the "Sound On,", “Alerts Only," "Sound Off" options. That would be a much easier way to adjust the volume settings.

Instrument Cluster Map: Zoom, Clarity & Full Detail Upgrade
The instrument cluster map (e.g. modern BMWs) is too zoomed in, limiting forward visibility. It lacks detail vs the main screen and can become cluttered at turns, reducing usefulness.
Request:
• Add adjustable zoom with a wider “look-ahead” default
• Flatten the 3D perspective to show more of the road ahead
• Match detail level to the main display (full map parity)Fix visibility issues:
• Prevent overlapping turn/road labels
• Move secondary info (street names, overlays) to a small, bottom-aligned area
• Prioritise the active route visually over all other elements bar cameras, traffic, road works, pot holes etcNavigation clarity:
• Improve junction/roundabout rendering
• Add stable, non-flickering guidance when moving through complex turns
• Dynamically highlight upcoming junctions as you approachWhy it matters:
• Reduces reliance on main screen
• Improves safety and focus
• Makes the cluster map genuinely usable as primary navigationNice-to-have:
• Speed-based auto zoom (faster = wider view)
• Separate settings for cluster vs main screenThe instrument cluster map (e.g. modern BMWs) is too zoomed in, limiting forward visibility. It lacks detail vs the main screen and can become cluttered at turns, reducing usefulness.

Directional Hazard Reporting
When looking at reported hazards on the map its never clear which side of the road they are on. Theres a rudimentary "on the shoulder" or "on the other side of the street" but only for specific hazards and its not well indicated when looking at the map. This is an easy fix. Put a directional chevron above or below the reported hazard (or on whichever side of it depending on current map orientation so its set to always be pointing in one or the other direction of traffic on the street it was reported on even if you move the map around) to indicate the direction the person was driving when they reported the hazard by default and give the wazer an option to change the indicators direction to indicate traffic moving in the opposite direction if they noticed the hazard on the opposite side. The reverse direction option should be easy to uae and not require additional diverted attention to execute. For example after pressing the final button that places your reported hazard, the reverse direction button pops up in that buttons place for a few seconds so you only need to tap one more time in the same spot to invert the direction or do nothing to leave it as is.

דרך הקישור או קוד.
3. שיתוף מיקום חי (GPS)
כל אחד מאשר שיתוף מיקום.
4. מפה משותפת
רואים את כולם זזים על המסלול בזמן אמת.
