Have waze not kill my Sony Music app when they are both on at the same time.
When the waze sends an audio alert over my bluetoothed car audio system, it will stop the Sony Music app that is playing. Then when the alert is done, I will have to go in and tell the app to play again. This is frustrating.

Opening Waze on Apple Carplay cuts off radio - doesn't with other map apps
When I open Waze on Apple Carplay in my car my music/radio will stop playing (switches from Radio/Sirius to iPod on my Pioneer Nex). I have to manually go back and turn the music back on. This doesn't happen when I open Google Maps or Apple Maps.

Integrate Qobuz with Waze.
Qobuz is a top choice of music streaming services for audiophiles, yet it isn't integrated with Waze. It's a PITA to change apps while driving.

The music banner is too big! I would like to have it down so I can see the song but it takes up too mcuh space, make it more like google
The music banner is too large on the app. Please could you make it smaller so I can still have it up to see the song and see the map. Make it more like Google maps music banner - small and not distractive

Better 'ok Google' voice control
Since its simple enough to configure Google to auto-listen for 'ok Google' and its voice recognition is much faster than the three-finger touch version in Waze, could Waze implement a full set of commands for the 'ok Google' interface?
Examples:
* Okay Google, Navigate home with Waze (obvious)
* Okay Google, Send alert police with Waze (sends notification)
* Okay Google, Add stop, coffee with Waze (opens the add-stop interface with a search result for 'coffee')
* Okay Google, stop navigating with Waze (stop current navigation)Better touchless controls should be a major priority and the Android voice system is…

Media Control
It would be nice to have the option to have some form of media controls always showing because it is irritating having to press to open the controls and then the action you want. A small but impactful change. Otherwise love the app best in its class

Android Jelly Bean multi window support
There is a new feature in Jelly Bean, on higher resolutions I can split the screen between 2 apps, so it would be nice if Waze supported that too, so I could see Waze AND music player simultaneously.

Android Samsung galaxy note 3 multi window feature.
Would love to use it with other apps. This limits me to only use one app. With Google maps I can listen to YouTube or a music app while I see and hear directions. Thanks.

Please add LiveXLive to audio apps.
Not everyone is an iHeart or Pandora fan. I am an old lady who loves music my way. It's apparent you guys aren't gonna allow access to Amazon music. So how about LiveXLive (formally Slicker).
3 votesGreat news! Amazon Music is now integrated with Waze.

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

setup actions for use by trigger (app)
I use an app called trigger to start waze when I get into my car. It allows actions to be executed on apps. (Eg for music player it can start playing music, stop playing etc) Would it be possible to set actions that allow actions to be executed by such programs? Simple things like start navigating home/work/close?

Android Auto Split Screen Support
In Android Auto full screen mode and using 2 apps for example Waze and YouTube Music, if you select music on the main screen (left) then the split screen (right) just shows Date/Time. Expecting Waze map to show in the split screen.
That's how it works with Google Maps. It shows up in the split screen if another app is in the main screen. Why can't it be same with Waze?

Prevent Waze audio if a call is active
With the Text to Speech navigation active and a call comes in, the application will continue to speak over the caller on the speakerphone. Other audio applications like the audio MP3 player, will mute the music during the call and then resume after the call. Waze client should do the same.
148 votesGreat news! The feature of preventing Waze audio when there is an active call is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Waze to issue Alerts when using CarPlay split screen
According to Waze support, when using Carplay split-screen (where Waze splits screen with other app like music), Waze won't issue traffic Alerts by design!! That's true, I have confirmed it. As soon as Waze returns to "full screen", it resumes issuing traffic alerts (danger, weather, radar, etc).
Split-screen is a quite usefull feature of Car-Play as it simplifies greatly audio/music control on the road, without the issue of messing with several buttons.
Although in split-screen mode the screen area that Waze has to show information is reduced, there is no reason why Waze could not keep issuing the…7 votes -
Can Google Podcasts be integrated with the music player please?
I like to listen to podcasts, and I have been using Google Podcasts as my choice of player. It isn't integrated with Waze, so can it please be made available? I can still use it while I'm using the navigator, however it has to be playing in the background instead of playing within Waze.
