I want to always see both the speed limit and the speed I’m going on screen at all times. Right now the speed limit pops up only when I get to 5 miles over the speed limit - the speed I’m going is always on screen. So how do I get the Speed Limit to always show?

In the Waze app, click the magnifying glass in the bottom left corner, then click the gear icon for the Settings page. You’re looking for:

Settings \> Speedometer \> Show speed limit: Always show speed limit

That only appears for Android. If you are on iOS - use command ##@debugspeed on search bar if you always want to see speed limit. Hope that helps!

iOS should now function the same way in the latest iOS release through the means that Thadius856 described.

But it doesn’t. The option exists in the menu as described, but the SL still isn’t displayed when below the alert speed.

Hrm… I will try to play with it because it does work for me.

Worst to worst, ##@debugspeed?

It’s likely a bug in the iOS version. The double-hashtag codes are for testing only and are only supposed to work for beta testers in beta versions.

? I was not aware.

##@debugspeed has been working for non-Beta users for iOS only for the past two versions last I recall. That’s how I was able to see the speed limit at all times before the SL UR’s came in. Though once the iOS update came in, it always stayed for me o\_o.

FYI, with today’s update to version 4.12 on iPhone, the “always show speed limit” setting seems to be working as intended.

Same here as noted in the Official Feedback Thread for iOS 4.12
