Changing Destination on Phone While Connected to Android Auto
I want to change my destination on my phone while it's connected to my car through Android Auto, but I can’t type directly on the car screen. Currently, I have to unplug the cable to change the destination on my phone, and then plug it back in to reconnect to the car.

Waze map on cluster screen (behind steering wheel) on Android Automotive cars
Electric vehicles powered by Android Automotive from brands like Renault, Volvo or Polestar have the Waze app ready.
However, the application only works in the main infotainment screen and does not replicate the maps in the cluster screen like Google Maps does.
This is a big miss in order to use Waze instead of Google Maps, since it is very practical to see the map behind the steering wheel.
We hope in a near future you can have access to cluster screen and replicate the Waze maps there.

Allow user to see turn-by-turn direction list when using Waze via Android Auto.
When connected via Android Auto and using Waze there is no means to pull up the turn-by-turn directions list, even if the vehicle is parked. This forces the driver to drive "blind", not knowing what to expect between the start of the trip and the destination. In city use cases, this makes Waze via Android Auto unusable.

Notifications in Android Notification bar when Waze is in the background
I would like to see an icon popup next to the Waze icon in the Android Notification bar when people send a Ping, comment to your chat, or when an event like police or accidents have been reported. This would be useful when Waze is in the background.

Allow reporting of New Incidents while an Alert is active (Android Auto)
When using Waze on Android Auto, if an active alert (e.g., speed camera, crash, lane closure) is currently displayed on the screen, the button to report a new incident becomes inaccessible or disappears.
To submit a new report, the driver is currently forced to first accept or close the existing alert. This is highly impractical and potentially unsafe while driving.This limitation prevents users from easily reporting multiple, co-located events (like a lane closure and a crash) in densely populated areas where multiple things often happen near each other.
I suggest that the Report Button should remain visible and accessible…

show song playing while navigating using Android Auto
While using Waze on android Auto I would like to see what is currently playing, when using spotify or even on infotainment (Radio, XM, Ect.) There is a nice open spot at the top of the screen that could be used to display this info. I know that there is a quick popup when i change songs but would like the ability to display permanently.

Android Auto Black Buttons
Please get rid of the black buttons. The black buttons are awful. Hard to believe iOS users have a better UI than Android users when Waze and Android are owned by Google

Android Auto - quick actions
It would be nice to have the ability to create a "quick actions" group.
For example, to report the pothole I need to make three actions: 1) click on the "chat" button, 2) select "event on the road", and 3) "report a pothole". It's unsafe. If I would be able to add this action to the "quick actions", I would only need to click this button. It would be safer, and it would motivate users to report these problems more often. "Quick actions group" might be places next to the "chat" icon.27 votes -
Android Auto New issue
Prior to yesterday, the Waze App for Android would automatically move to the background & allow Android Auto take over when launched. Used in conjunction with any Android app requesting directions this would automatically return to the requesting app to the foreground so as not to require user intervention. As of last night the Waze android app (just a grey screen with a reminder that android auto is running) remains foreground and this requires removing hands from the steering wheel to manually return the requesting app to the foreground. Please advise. Thanks.

Preinstalling Waze on Android
In Switzerland, Waze isn't really common and kinda unknown. I have no idea why, since around Switzerland (French, Italy, Germany, etc.) it's way more used.
So I thought that preinstalling it on Android devices (like google maps) could be a great idea in order to attract more users to the app.1 vote -

Synchronisatie android automotive
Het is handig als waze op de telefoon synchroniseert met Wees op Android auto motive. Dat lijkt nu niet te kunnen en het gaat in ieder geval niet automatisch.
Please add synchronisatie between waze on the phone and waze on android automotive.
