  1. 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.

    this 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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. …

  6. 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.

  8. 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.

  10. Allow a longer delay before voice prompts

    When using my iPhone with bluetooth handsfree kit, I miss the first word of each prompt while the kit detects bluetooth audio and mutes my radio in the car. Please increase delay between starting the announcement (or add a selectable option to do so) to overcome this problem.

  13. have the entire app bluetooth to the radio screen so you can have map and voice not just voice

    have the entire app bluetooth to the radio screen so you can have map and voice not just voice. I have to use the phone for the map and the directions comes out over the radio. It would be ideal to be able to have the app extend to the radio screen

  14. 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
    Georgi

  16. Android auto screen

    We let you know an potential error. After the latest versions, when you are navigating with android auto and you click on phone to navigate with Waze, there is a new advisory screen that says to look at android auto car screen to follow the navigation. This screen may be temporary, because when you are professional driver using another app, and you need this another main app for continue working, you have been blocked by this advisory screen, and you need to close and restart the apps on your phone.

  17. Waze on Android head unit: Send ETA by SMS or instant message via connected phone

    I have an Android-based head unit. It gets an internet connection from mobile data via Wifi tethering to my phone. It is also paired to my phone via bluetooth.

    I'd like to send my ETA on an SMS text to a phone contact on my connected phone, as opposed to email through the tethere internet connection.

    It would be good to see integration with other messaging & social media services, i.e. Whatsapp, Google Hangouts and Facebook.Messenger, for the purposes to sending ETA, or linking a tracking beacon.

  18. 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.
