  4. Implement user-configurable delay (in increments of 0.1 sec) for voice alerts

    Some vehicle Bluetooth implementations have lengthy handshaking which prevents the first second or two of Waze voice alerts from actually being heard. My car has a feature that ramps up the volume of a Bluetooth phone incrementally on first connection. However, the impact is that in most driving situations, the first two seconds are simply too quiet to be heard!

    For example, instead of "In 500 metres, turn right onto Main Street.", all you hear is ".. to Main Street". Obviously, this information is unclear and confusing, forcing the driver to glance at the map on the phone to verify…

  5. It would be great if Waze had an ODB2 link

    It would be great if Waze had an ODB2 link so that you could track fuel economy, see if you have enough fuel for your journey, warn you when fuel was getting low, and suggest navigation to the nearest cheapest fuel station. Bluetooth ODB2 interfaces are cheap and it is an internationally standard protocol which is easy to read the data from. You could do so much with this.

  6. Currently playing music shown on map

    I use my phone to listen to music while driving (through Bluetooth) a lot of the time and I also use the screen of my phone to see what song is playing, I just thought it would be a cool thing for the app to tell you what song is playing on your phone while having the map open. I have seen other apps do this so I know it is possible.

    Feedback & update request for the latest version. I'll start by saying I'm a huge fan of Waze. But this version has some major issues. I'm on an iPhone 6 running 9.2.1 (and now updated to 9.3). I have performed two hard restarts and uninstalled/reinstalled the app. I'm using a turn-by-turn voice (same as always)
    1. There are no distance announcements
    a. You get a 'turn right' command when you normally get a 'in half a mile, turn right' command
    2. The street names are not announced
    a. You only get street names at the turn
    3. The voice fades…

  9. Zero risque d'accident avec cet ajout

    Bonjour j'ai regardé un reportage sur coyote et waze et j'ai eu une idée c'est d'ajouter une barre sur l'application en bas du téléphone pour choisir si accident, contrôle de police, voiture arrêté ou par exemple vu que l'application est gratuite fabriquer une barre de bouton avec les icones dessinées dessus, avec contrôle du telephone par branchement auxiliaire ou Bluetooth,à coller sur le tableau de bord par exemple

  10. Allow me to change audio source in Play Sound Via menu when using CarPlay

    Waze audio defaults to CarPlay audio and cannot be changed while connected to CarPlay. I would like to be able to select an alternative Bluetooth source other than CarPlay while connected to CarPlay. The fix would need to be made in Settings -> Voice & Sound -> Play Sound Via. Allow user to select any sound output they desire and NOT default to carplay.

  11. Stop playing an audio tone when we click on "still there" even with sound on.

    With sound on, if you click "still there" for road hazards, you now play a tone. This tone interrupts the playback of bluetooth audio in the car and is very annoying. We WANT other sounds to play, so turning to "alerts only" or "sound off" is not a solution. We just want that little feedback sound gone.

  12. Alarma para Waze fuera de servicio y corregir bug de desconexión

    Muchas veces voy conduciendo escuchando las indicaciones por bluetooth (conduzco motocicleta) y frecuentemente Waze se desconecta, no hay notificación auditiva y quedo perdido justo en el peor lugar. Waze debería tener una alarma o notificación al desconectarse voluntaria o involuntariamente.

  13. Keep the app from turning off navigation

    If you have the app open in the background, or while the screen is off or locked, navigation can stop if you are stopped for too long. This is beyond frustrating. When I am riding my motorcycle, I listed to the navigation on my bluetooth system. I keep my phone screen locked in my pocket. However, if I am stopped in traffic or at a stop light too soon, then navigation will completely stop. I have to stop, unlock my phone, and then when I open waze, it asks if I want to resume navigation. DO NOT AUTO STOP NAVIGATION.…

  14. Tasker intergration

    Tasker is a automation system for Android based on profiles that contains states and actions.

    For instance when Tasker sees the bluetooth in my car it begins to reject most calls, reads texts aloud me, and sends a automated reply. Currently that reply just says I will get back to them when I reach my destination. Waze knows that destination and my ETA. I would like to send that in the automated texts. I would also like for Tasker to be able to tell Waze a destination. Using this info it would also be possible for Tasker to do events…

  15. The "mute during calls" and "play on phone speaker" sliders need to be interconnected

    Here is the problem with the "Play sound via: Play on phone speaker" setting. With both "mute during calls" and "pause spoken audio" turned off, I noticed that if I have airpods in and they are being used as the device's default audio settings, I will hear all Waze alerts, as expected, on the phone's speaker.

    However, if I'm on a call with the airpods, then all alerts and spoken audio are absent. I would like to hear my alerts and directions from the phone's speaker while I'm on calls with my airpods. However, my experience is quite different. It…

  17. Que los usuarios podamos modificar los avisos (carro a la orilla, policias etc) es decir que la notificación aparezca con mas anticipación

    Que aparezca la notificación 1 milla antes de llegar o al gusto del usuario, porque algunas personas tenemos el problema que el Bluetooth tiende a estar atrasado, y cuando se da cuenta es casi al momento de donde esta dicho aviso.

  18. I'd like to be able to use the voice controls without breaking my ability to stay synced with itunes in my car

    if you use the "ok waze" feature, it breaks the itunes bluetooth sync with the car... and then you are required to jump through too many hoops to get your music back. would be nice if the hands free feature didn't break itunes

  19. Waze android auto

    There needs to be a way to use Waze on car stereos with Android auto WITHOUT forcing you to use the stereo as a Bluetooth device to answer the phone. I like the sound of my Headset better than the radio sound for calls.

    As you may know, Waze is already supported on Android Auto. Stay tuned for more feature updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

  20. Hey, Waze. There seems to be a problem with IOS 9.1 on Iphone 5S for Version 4.0.1.1.

    When Bluetooth is connected to car, and the voice directions override the radio, after the voice direction, the radio remains overridden and the Iphone starts to play from the Itunes library rather than going back to the radio. This is a pretty annoying bug because you have to switch back to the radio on the car. This did not happen prior to IOS 9--it would automatically switch back to the radio when the instruction finished.
