  1. Route change warning due to traffic or closure

    It would be nice to get a warning of when a route is changed from the original route, especially taking local roads instead of freeway due to traffic or closure. I could see a few traffic pins before navigating, but usually it's not a big deal because it's typically a minor slowdown. At times, there are no pins before navigating because the route is different than normal. People are accustomed to their daily routine route that it can cause temporary confusion on why the route is changed.

  3. Yellow Box Junction Cameras

    TLDR Version: At the moment on Waze you can only report either speed cameras, red light cameras or fake cameras, having a 'yellow box junction' camera would be a logical and great addition imho.

    Non TLDR Version: Yellow box junction cameras drive me nuts (for those not UK based these are cameras that make sure yellow box junctions - ie boxes marked on the road to stop drivers stopping at the entrance to a side junction and blocking it), mainly because not all yellow boxes are enforced with cameras (so drivers from all angles enter it and the only way…

  4. Suggestion of inclusion of hazardous areas

    Hello, I would like to suggest an inclusion of tagging by users or even by the developer of dangerous areas and if it is marked by the user, after a certain number of markings, that the area or street is marked for a longer period or permanently

  5. Garage sale app

    Waze should add a garage sale app where people could for a fee, post an address and the day and time they will have them. Then the garage sale will appear when the event happens. People could search for garage sales. Garage sale hunting is big business and it is currently being done by people hanging signs on street corners. People have to drive to search for these sales which waste a lot of time and gas. It harms the environment.

  6. Breadcrumbs

    I still have to use my Garmin gps with breadcrumbs trail enabled so I can quickly backtrack out of neighborhoods. It would be great if Waze would step up and make this option available so we can trash our Garmins.

  8. Award points for stopping at or using advertisers.

    Maybe 10 to 20 points for buying gas or eating a burger at an advertisers location. Could be tied to a code you have to enter for the points which you get when you use the location. Might be a big plus for advertisers ie feedback on advertising dollars spent.

  12. Hagamos un mundo mejor con waze

    Seria bastante efectivo en muchos paises que agregaran una opcion muy similar a la de "policia" pero esta opcion seria para encontrar perros perdidos. Deberia de estar por ejemplo un icono de un perrito que le permita al usuario indicar donde lo vio perdido, y este icono que tenga las opciones de raza, color y de si tiene collar o no.... asi ayudarian a muchas personas a encontrar a sus mascotas cuando se pierden. Ya que muchos salen en auto a buscarlas.

  15. Safe Area

    It would be great if Waze gave some kind of general warning for areas that are no go areas due to crime. Sadly South Africa has too many of these areas. I am a South African and use Waze daily. Its also dangerous for tourists. You can literally within 2 roads find yourself in a very dangerous and dark area that is full of crime.

  16. Add arrive button

    Sometimes when arriving at very large places, Waze thinks that you arrive only when you are in the front door of the place. Think for example in a mall, the parking lot will be huge, but Waze already traced the route until the front door.
    An "arrive" button will help Waze to understand that you are already at your destination and there is no need to recalculate the route while you are looking for a parking spot

  17. Add TIME ELAPSED TRIP to main screen. Sometimes is useful how long it took from A to B.

    Add TIME ELAPSED TRIP to main screen. Sometimes is useful how long it took from A to B. also a comparison between initial ETA estimated time arrival and final TIME ELAPSED, and a final report if you were earlier or later xx minutes from original point.

  18. Emergency Mode

    In states of emergency, such as natural disasters, hurricane, floods, earthquakes. It would be nice if Waze switched to "Emergency Mode" in this mode you can mark gas stations as having gas or not with notes about long lines. Ads would be removed and replaced with the location of emergency services (Hospitals, shelters) and locations can be marked with water/canned food/ propane..

  20. Change your password rules! Asking for a minimum of 8 characters, numbers and special characters is STUPID!!!! You are not a bank!!!

    relax your password rules. If people want to use 20 characters and weird symbols lets them. BUT i dont see any reason why I would need a complex password for this type of app.
