Auto-Replay Messages, when in use...
I have. Razr Maxx, and everytime I drive the Smart Actions, auto answer the SMS, but only replay the SMS... A very good option for Waze, will be Auto-Replay messages from Viver, What'sApp, e-Mail, etc.

Better direction instructions - instead of current wayfinder segment work-aound
Wayfinder segments (‘street’ > ‘direction’) look like a pure workaround to me and for good reasons they are primarily used for ramps entering a freeway or at freeway intersections.
For intersections within a city or other non freeway roads outside of cities there is no satisfying solution as the street name often is NOT the best navigation instruction.
This is a critical issue in countries like Germany where “smaller” roads often are neither known by their numbers nor by their street names.
A “new” „wayfinder“ feature should not miss-use the semantics of the street name field.
Instead we should have…1 vote -

Update this with a real GPS view map!
Love this app but can't fully replace my gps navigator with it just yet. I do a lot of deliveries and when driving without navigation, a real GPS device will say on the top of the screen upcoming street also if u are somewhere and don't know where u touch your vehicle it shows u the closest address by u. This is a safety feature... Please add! This app only gives u the hundred block

Please don't have case sensitive usernames
While I understand that security is a good thing, and this does arguably make the system slightly safer by increasing the username space, it also provides usability problems: Specifically for users who create their accounts while using their phones, which often automatically uppercase the first letter of any text (IE exactly what happened to me)

Better live updates - ETA not very accurate at beginning of drive - traffic conditions (jams) do not show
using Waze for a long time - but it still bugs me when I am stuck in traffic that the road shows up as clear and not in the appropriate color. Also, ETA is way off at beginning of drive, because Waze doesn't calculate the rush hour/construction traffic correct. Today is was off by 10 minutes (on a 30 minute drive originally)

Simplify UI for lite users
I know this may seem like a facepalm moment for many users, but trust me, I have friends out there who have given me feedback that Waze is 'too complicated' and find Google Navigation far simpler. I see one option is the first screen could ask 'Would you like to "Enter a Destination" or "Just drive around"?' just to make the first impression simpler.
Other tweaks could also be made for our tech-not-so-savvy users. This could have a major impact on retaining users.

Slight modification to American English voice prompts when navigating from unnamed roads to named roads.
When transitioning from a network of unnamed roads to a named road, waze will say (American English), "Turn left at Pearl St, then turn right at Pearl St" (example encountered when navigating from the Whole Foods parking lot on Pearl St to 1620 Pearl St in Boulder, CO). These transitions frequently aren't signed, though I understand this makes sense for on-ramps. However, it would make more sense and be consistent in both situations to change the article from "at" to "toward." You'd then hear, "Turn left toward Pearl St, then turn right at Pearl St." "To" would also work as…

Make your ability for me easy to communicate to.
I love WAZE. I don't like not being able to have an account. I have signed up, I get your FB posts as well as emails yet, I am not able to communicate when on the road. Today I asked for the ability to create a new password. You send a link. I complied. Showed I was successful, yet when I go to my dashboard - I don't exist. Come on, you are better than this and I am no computer dummy. I am ready to quit and find something else and tell everyone of my friends in the process.…

In Reports, wrap up information received about a same event into a single report field instead of several notifications for the same event

Startup sequence is misarranged; initial direction; use accelerometer; easier access to 2d map
I'll describe the problem by describing my experience. Often I'm in a hurry to get directions and go. I start Waze and there's a relatively long wait (4 sec) for the splash screen to pass--understandable, but still a minor annoyance. Then I just want to get to Navigate so I can get my route. But Waze is busy drawing the map for 2-3 sec, which I don't need to see right now. At last I get to Navigate. I select my destination from my favorites and the machine starts route-searching.
Only at this point does Waze decide to display a…

Pop ups and statistics
It will be very appreciated to have pop ups when waze is not on the main screen. For example, when i phone, waze app is in minor and i don't know if there are warnings soon... It will be great to have a pop up when a warning is coming in the next 500m and waze is in minor.
I m using the app very often. It will be fun to have personal statistics like i prevent for traffic, cops,...
Thanks Waze. Keep innovating and help us!1 vote
