How to Set up Waze on Android Auto
Waze on Android Auto is a limited version of the app, in which you can use voice commands to navigate while driving, but not to send traffic and incident reports. You also can’t adjust settings, add or edit Favorites, share your location or route, or use any of the social features. First, make sure you have the most up-to-date versions of the Android Auto and Waze apps, then check your Waze settings to ensure they’re to your liking, including routing preferences and navigation voice.
