Loading Status
I find that usually waze appears to load quite quickly, but will then freeze intermittently and loosing GPS lock whilst actually finishing 'loading' (Contacting server etc). It would be good it some form of message or progress bar could be shown so that it is obvious that it is still loading and not actually frozen

Option to move Report Button to the left side on CarPlay
As a left-handed driver sitting on the left side of the vehicle, having the CarPlay report button permanently fixed on the right side of the screen is very inconvenient and counter-intuitive. It forces me to reach across the entire screen with my non-dominant hand or awkwardly with my left hand.
Please add a manual setting in Waze to toggle the CarPlay layout/UI buttons between the left and right sides, regardless of the vehicle's default steering wheel configuration. This would greatly improve accessibility for left-handed drivers.1 vote -

Feature suggestion: AI-Based Wildlife Risk Alerts
I would like to suggest a new road safety feature for Waze: automatically identifying and warning drivers about roads with a high risk of wildlife crossings.
The idea is to use crowdsourced data from Waze users who report wild animals near or on roads, including deer, wild boar and other wildlife.
Instead of displaying only temporary reports, Waze could analyse accumulated data over time to identify high-risk road segments. The system could consider the frequency and location of reports, time of day, season and historical patterns.
When approaching a high-risk segment, drivers would receive an early warning such as:
“Caution: Increased wildlife activity ahead.”
The alerts could be dynamic, appearing only when the data indicates an elevated risk, for example during dawn, dusk or seasonal periods of increased animal movement.
To improve reliability, the system could use a confidence threshold and regularly update risk levels as new reports arrive.
This feature could help prevent wildlife collisions, protect drivers and passengers, reduce vehicle damage and save animal lives.
Rather than simply reporting an animal after it has been spotted, Waze could use its community-driven data to predict where drivers should be especially careful before an incident occurs.
I believe this would be a valuable addition to Waze’s road safety features, especially in rural areas and forested regions across Europe.

Subject: Black Bar Appears in Landscape Mode on iPhone
Subject: Black Bar Appears in Landscape Mode on iPhone
Hello Waze Support Team,
I would like to report a visual issue with the Waze app on the iPhone 15 Pro. When using navigation in landscape mode, a black bar appears on the screen. It cannot be removed and negatively affects the app’s appearance and user experience.
Could you please investigate this issue and consider fixing it in a future update?
P.S. The same issue has also been observed on the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 13.
Thank you for your attention.

Title: Add a One-Tap “Save Current Location” Button
Suggestion:
Please add a simple “Save Current Location” button directly to the main map screen.
Currently, saving a location requires several steps: tapping the three-dot menu, selecting “Explore this place,” choosing “Save,” and entering a name.
This is unnecessarily complicated, especially for drivers who need to save a location quickly while navigating. It also creates a safety concern because drivers may need to spend too much time looking at their phone and navigating multiple menus.
Please add a one-tap option to save the current GPS location automatically, using the date and time as the default name, with the option to rename it later.
Waze is a useful navigation app, but this simple improvement would make it much more convenient and safer to use.
Thank you for considering this suggestion.

Waze on CarPlay Stops podcast
When using Waze on CarPlay while listening to a podcast—whether through Apple’s native Podcasts app or third-party apps like iVoox—the podcast playback stops whenever Waze issues a voice alert. Although the setting to mix both audio sources is enabled, the podcast still pauses instead of playing simultaneously as expected.

NEW AI-powered cameras for unsafe behaviours (mobile phone- smoking- drinking etx)
New permanent AI-powered cameras have been installed to detect and report drivers who fail to wear seatbelts or engage in distracting and unsafe behaviours while driving, such as talking on a mobile phone, smoking, eating, or drinking.
A new warning icon must be created to warn drivers about these cameras. these are permanent standstill cameras

CarPlay Integration
Hi Waze Team. Would really appreciate integration into heads up display and in the display screen. My 2023 Mercedes integrates with Google Maps for heads up display and display screen. Waze still doesn’t. I enjoy Waze UI, would benefit greatly with its integration into car software and hardware.

serious distractions when loking for alternate routes
When using CarPlay, the process of searching for alternative routes becomes increasingly complicated and causes many distractions while driving.
It currently requires three steps for me:
1. Tap “More routes” on the main screen
2. Tap “Alternative routes” again in the pop-up that opens
3. Physically scroll between the three routes, some of which are partially hidden
CarPlay is meant to reduce distractions, yet right now the app does the opposite — and this is very dangerous.
Using the app on the phone requires only one tap and the routes appear clearly. There’s no reason it shouldn’t work the same way in CarPlay.

Zip code
Post zip code when researching addresses. I know I'm not the only one who clicks Waze to check a zip cod on an address and have to go to Apple Maps instead for that specific reason solely. If it were not for this I probably wouldn't even open Apple Maps.

Feature Request: Add LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas / Autogas) as a Fuel Type Selection
Hello Waze Team and Community,
I would like to formally request the addition of LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas / Autogas) to the 'Preferred Fuel Type' selector in the app settings, as well as the ability to view and update its prices at gas stations.
Reasons for this request:
1. High regional adoption: LPG is a widely used alternative fuel for millions of drivers and commercial fleets across many countries in Europe and Latin America.
2. Navigation and price accuracy: Currently, the app only allows selection between Gasoline, Diesel, or Electric options. Without an LPG filter, drivers of LPG vehicles cannot easily locate stations that offer this fuel, nor can we accurately report or check updated prices.
3. Enhanced user experience: Adding this option would empower the community to keep the LPG station database organized, accurate, and helpful for everyone.Thank you in advance for considering this suggestion and to community members for upvoting this feature!
Best regards,
