New Alternate Routes requires too much attention
Firstly, I was unable to find the alternate routes option the first time I used the latest update. The screen was unfamiliar, and in the moment, while driving, it’s not a great time to discover new design choices. I would have appreciated an in-app notification or walkthrough showing the update before embarking on my drive.
Secondly, I’m not yet a fan of the redesign. The x-minutes slower/faster is a bit cumbersome, requiring that I do mental math to determine when I’ll arrive based on the route option.
Third, needing to swipe across the screen to see the detailed info requires…

Add a simple 'pause navigation' button.
The idea is to add a pause navigation control, to allow you to do any number of things while keeping the route active. I stop to visit a store on the way, and the phone is nagging me the whole time to go back to the route.
Closing the route an resuming afterwards is not a perfect solution, as I sometimes navigate in areas without good cell service. I can't pick up the route and continue until I find a way back to data.
As a suggestion, have an option to 'Pause' appear when the user is off course. If…

Battery Saver always on
Option to have battery saver always-on by default. It's a poor user experience to have to set this manually for EVERY journey for those that want to have the battery as high as practitable before exiting the car and/or save their OLED screens from burning. Not everyone uses a charger in the car. And most phones use OLED screens.
'Automatically turn on' is there as an option, but it waits for battery to become low before kicking in, which rather defeats the object of saving battery (it's too late if it's already become low!) and meanwile you risk burning the…

Simple route option - fewest turns/instructions
Many times the added efforts of following the maze routes created/generated result in negligible time/distance savings. Why not reduce the driving effort, reduce driving distractions created by the route, and improve attention dedicated to driving safely, instead of turning frequently?

Roadkill

Allow us to create multiple waypoints
I don't understand why Waze only lets us create a destination and (only) 1 waypoint. This makes a great app unusable for many drives. Worse, Waze keeps saying the idea is "Not currently planned".
This idea gets submitted over and over and over. It is clear Waze users WANT multiple waypoints. Come on Waze - time to step up!

Roundabout
Hi I m really enjoying using wage navigation. Everything is so perfect except one thing. And that one thing is on motorways if you are arriving on roundabout (taking exit on roundabout) it suppose to show like 100 yards 200 yards for exit but way it's shows makes most of people confused. I my self and many of my friends taxi drivers very confused when we approaching exist on roundabout. I kindly request to change only one last thing to work 100% perfect. We will be very appreciate.
Kindly regards

Shortcuts for Hazard Reports
When using the Hazard Report feature in Waze I often find that:
1) I use 1 to 3 reports a LOT more often than any others.
2) I often find that selecting these hazard icons using the current method is fiddly, dangerous when driving, and slow, resulting in the report being sent late, often about 100 meters or more past the hazard.
My improvement idea is to add 1 to 3 hazard SHORTCUTS that "slide out" for selection from the existing hazard report icon (yellow triangle) on the FIRST touch, they would then "slide in" again after selection to avoid…

Add Volume button before entering destination
To reinstate the volume button at before entering destination, like the past version. This is to allow users to mute the volume if they are in a meeting and would like to check traffic without every single person in the meeting knows when Waze goes "Begin driving...".

Remove visible address from Home/Work display
Default to not display Home and Work address. Think of it like this: you're driving colleagues to lunch on the spur of the moment. Why do they all need to know your address? Not safe for females is it? That's lawsuit territory. This is such an oversight that I've set a home address of a shop nearby. Another example; female has a date and has kept her employment information private. Gives date a lift, now date knows her address. If something happens to her, that's a pretty big lawsuit for you guys. It's showing it on the screen, to everyone…
