The recent change that forces an automatic zoom-out when approaching a roundabout is counterintuitive, unsafe, and reduces navigation clarity. At the very moment when drivers need precise, close-up guidance to identify the correct exit, Waze zooms out, making it harder to see lane markings and exit numbers.
This behaviour:
Makes it harder to read the map, especially in unfamiliar areas or at night.
Can cause missed exits and last-minute manoeuvres.
Is impossible to disable in settings.
I had to switch to Google Maps in a city with many roundabouts because this feature made Waze unusable.
Please remove this behaviour or give users the option to disable it. Safety and clarity should take priority over any visual effect.
