I use Waze every single day and it’s honestly one of the best navigation apps out there. It works flawlessly for me — fast, accurate, and always reliable when I’m on the road. The real‑time traffic info and community reports make a huge difference in daily driving.One thing I’m really curious about is whether there are any upcoming updates planned for deeper integration with the infotainment systems in VW Group vehicles. It would be amazing if Waze could be displayed not only on the main central screen, but also on the digital instrument cluster and the heads‑up display. That kind of integration would make the driving experience even smoother and safer.Overall, fantastic app — just hoping for even tighter car system integration in the future.

Perfect app, just one request

When I use navigation, the app very correctly and reliably warns for all cameras, crashes, stopped cars etc.Could you make it so that the app does this with no navigation? I noticed the app sometimes does this, but very late.I'd love to have warnings for all the occurances mentiones above with no navigation since I use the app all the time with CarPlay. Thank you!
Developer Response
Hey Ivan, I understand you'd like to get alerts for cameras and other road events without an active navigation. Our team is always looking for ways to improve and your feedback is valuable. You can share your ideas in the Waze suggestion box: https://tinyurl.com/4auzrky3

Excellent app, but I have some bug because sometimes app voice notice me when camera is approaching and sometimes only with mark on app but without voice notification.And it’s spent lots of battery sometimes more spend the charge in car.
Great app - but!

One thing missing in this app is: there are streets where only authorized vehicles can go through so it would be very helpful if that would be noted in the route. Happened to me multiple times in Italy where in city centers can go only authorized vehicles. I think it’s the same for Germany and their zones, maybe app should - could say something like “you need vignette or sticker for this road / part of the road”... something like that. But all in all great app.
This version includes several bug fixes and performance improvements.
