Great app. But will be nice to provide ability to choose location for notification in CarPlay mode (drive notification like bumps and etc). Because currently they located in left bottom corner and on large screen that part are covered by arm and not visible. And it’s dangerous to move hand and head to see what the notification

CarPlay issues
Aliaksei_Ivanou
Please, improve Apple CarPlay experience. First of all, the search doesn’t work for me at all - there is even no such button available for me, only Favorites and last destinations. So, the only way to add the destination is to use a smartphone which is really inconvenient, dangerous and nonsense considering you use Apple CarPlay anyway. Secondly, the stability of the application while working with Apple CarPlay is really poor. Usually, I face the problem with voice navigation stops working unexpectedly. Also, when I run Waze from my car display, it switches the system to the radio screen (VW Tiguan 2019). It does not happen with Google Maps or any other app. I do understand that Apple puts some limitations for functionality in CarPlay, but even when I use find the nearest parking place feature on the smartphone connected to the car, the app just crashes. So, if you decided to add CarPlay support, please, do it on a proper level. Thanks.

Make it possible to enter house number after street selection

It’s awful that if you need to go to some street with the long name (especially it it includes special characters eg in polish or German) you have to write the full street name and after that the house number. But when I write part of the street name you suggest the full name. Why after selection I can’t enter the house number? Pay attention at Yandex Navi
