Waze for ANDROID AUTO and 'avoiding' settings
Please add, in the ANDROID AUTO VERSION of Waze, the setting options for 'avoid freeways' etc... (Mazda MX-5 ND)

Choose Route in Android Auto
When using Android Auto, allow users to choose from available routes, regardless if Avoid Tolls, Freeways, etc... is selected.
Route choice is available directly in the Waze app, however, when connected, Android Auto locks the Waze app preventing the user from accessing it directly from the phone (love that safety feature)!
Please allow users to choose a route when using the app, including tolls or no tolls.

Hide notification bar in Android
Hiding the Notification bar would give a little more screen real estate, but the big deal here is that newer phones have AMOLED screens which can suffer from burn-in, and the notification bar in Android with the screen turned way up while navigating for hours is surely going to cause this. Can we PLEASE hide the notification bar so it doesn't damage our screens? Nexus One, Desire, Incredible, likely others will all be possibly impacted by this.
8 votesthis will not solve the issue with these screens, as waze has its own bar (right below the notifications bar) which will not be removed. So we need to think of a better solution that will prevent the burn-in, but hiding the notifications bar will not help.

Report Traffic lights in Android Auto
The button to report faulty traffic lights is already in the mobile version of the app. Can we please get it ported over to the Android Auto version? At any point in time at least 30% of South Africa's traffic lights don't work and it would help many users if a few of us could report from our car displays.

Bug in Waze + Android auto
There is a bug in the Waze when using the Android auto app. When I use Waze and switch to another app, then switch back to Waze, the top that indicates the next turn is not visible anymore. To get it back, I need to restart Android auto.

Android Auto parked location
On Android Auto, Google maps pops up a little box that you tick to save your parking location. Not ideal but it works. I would rather have it work automatically. But it's better than nothing. Which is what Waze has. Waze has no option on Android Auto to save a parking location. Automatic or otherwise. The Carplay version of Waze does this. Please implement.

Roll it back. The new version is unusable in Android Auto
Roll it back to last version
It no longer works correctly with Android Auto
Adding addresses by voice no longer works.
There are too many buttons now that used to be under 1 button that was way easier to get to rather than dialing through this mess.
Tha map is covered by big black text balloons that don't need to be so large.
It doesn't load correctly half the time.
I literally have to disconnect my phone from the car, enter my destination, start it, then hook it back up to the Android Auto.
Harder to report police or hazards. …53 votes -
Zoom - integrated car displays (Android Auto)
The zoom functionality is awful currently when using Android Auto with an in-car display. Google maps allows easy zooming using the rotatable knob (identical and in line with volume on a VW). Can this become a feature for Waze?? It's so distracting and dangerous trying to zoom when driving, a quick turn either way (like Google maps has) will be much better.

I'd like to be able to add a stop along a drive in the Android Auto implementation.
In the normal Waze UI, I can add a stop along my trip. In Android Auto, I cannot do this. The Google Navigation app on Android Auto allows it and makes the UI for such a feature pretty simple to manage.

Sound output in a new iOS version not working
Please fix sound output in a new iOS version: Bluetooth/phone speakers. Sound is set to phone speakers, but goes to Bluetooth after recent update. I listen to the radio, not Bluetooth (bt is on for phone calls and the car is connected), as a result I do not hear Waze sounds - missed turns, missed notifications and trip alerts.
Please fix it, this feature was so useful while working :)
Thank you!

Allow planned drives to show up via Android Auto
Ever since an update came out earlies this spring, Waze has taken a giant step backwards. In the following updates they have remedied a few things (except the awful user interface via Android Auto)...and they still haven't added back key features when using Waze in the car with Android Auto...like PLANNED DRIVES. Duh!

More options on Android auto
Hi there,
Why waze has limited options when using throw Android auto?
When you press the location icon it doesn't give all the options as when I am using it directly from the phone(options such as road ahead close) Why is that?
All new cars have got android auto, I think I should be able to access all options of waze throw Android auto, but that is not the case.
Thanks

Minions Theme Breaks Landscape Mode on Android.
When I switched to the minion theme, the map would no longer switch to landscape mode on my Android phone. I deleted all data and restarted waze, and landscape worked again. I loaded the minion theme again and Landscape broke again.
