  2. The ability to make certain areas a 'black list' or 'no go' zone that will be avoided by the routing algorithm.

    Sometime the routes are through areas on roads that are either dangerous or just needs to be avoided. The ability to black list or create certain no-go areas that will be avoided by the routing algorithms at all cost, unless the the final destination is in-side the area. I would rather spend more time travelling than go through these areas.

  3. In your "Contact Us" function, add a way to communicate with a Waze employee. Via email, if nothing else.

    I want to know why WAZE doesn't have St. George Island in its program. When I clicked on "Contact Us" I discovered there is no direct way to contact you except via a "Suggestion Box". How very user unfriendly.

  5. message car to car

    It would be useful to add the possibility to send a message to another car using the car license plate number
    This is useful when a car has a taillight out of order or when you forget the back foglamps on.
    In any case in all situations in which you want to warn a car of a potential danger.
    Naturally, the message is only received even if the target car has the active waze application.
    What do you think?

  6. Change the voice for police or red light camera.

    I tend to tune out the monotone voice of the Waze speaker and when there is a police or red might camera I don’t register in my mind that it’s there. Would be nice if I could change specific alerts like that to be a different noise alert like a beep or a different voice.

  7. Waze Icons "float"

    When you do a lot of driving with Waze open, the icons end up "burning" into the screen because there is no movement. Waze should have the icons "float" a bit to prevent this from happening.

  9. Mark parking permit

    I live in a big city where a parking permit is used. I would like to mark the streets where the permit is valid. An idea is to fill in the streets names where I can park, and mark them with a color on the map. After the street names are filled in, the map will show me if it's allowed to park my car of not.

  12. Narrow street flags

    Here in Pittsburgh, we're a city of hills, bluffs, and narrow, winding roads, and listening to Waze help navigate me has led to $400 in repairs and 3 near accidents in the past 2 months by taking me through poorly maintained streets and roads so narrow that, while not legally-required to be one way, nevertheless make for perilous travel with few opportunities to turn around and try another route.

    If users or editors could flag narrow streets and if an option was labeled to avoid these streets, similar to the options to avoid toll roads, it would be a major…

  14. Control audio warnings as a user option

    In the audio, there are only 3 options. Please add a 4th option as a " user option" There you can not only set the type of warning, but also control the amount of " before exit/turn " warnings. Today, you either have all of them ( 3 ) or nothing. I would like to have for example only 1 waning for exit + Police + speed camera and nothing else. Anyone can chose and set his own preferences on the audio notification.

  15. Avoid Tollways Toggle Switch on app home screen.

    Is it possible to have the "Avoid Tollways" toggle switch on the app home/map screen? Some days I'm happy to pay toll, others not so much. But to get to that switch in the app you have to hit search>settings>navigation>avoid toll roads. Would be much easier/quicker to have the switch on the map screen. Would also mean you could compare the two different travel times (toll vs non toll) quicker and see if the toll is worth paying.

  16. Concentrating on driving mode

    Hi
    I would like you to add an opening window which will ask me if I want to disconnect from texting apps while driving before I start driving with waze.
    Lately we are witnessing too many car accdidents that happen because of texting while driving..
    I would like to drive only with wasze working and having the opportunity to answer important phone calls with out texting.
    I don't want to see the text messages popping in my phone while driving with waze
    Thanks
    Ilana

  17. Haptic alert

    Hi

    I want all speed alerts to be vibrational - via Apple Watch. I need the feature to be active all the time, so when I run out door and jump in car I know I will be alerted every time I exceed a speed limit. I need the vibration to continue until speed is back within limit.

    This is essential for a motorcycle rider and I think best option for car driver also, you can be looking at phone or expecting to hear a ph in noisey environment, let alone feel a vib from phone in a loose coat…

  18. CarPlay directions box option to hide?

    Firstly might be useful to a CarPlay area in drop down box above?

    As you can have directions listed on your iPhone whilst using CarPlay / you might know the basic route it would be great to be able to optionally hide the Directions box as it takes so much map real estate. Or maybe move to top left. It always seems top right is where I am going....

  19. Update Search to Show Closest Locations at Top

    Search should list closest locations at the top by distance.

    For example my wife searched for "New Balance" stores in Waze and the first location was in Woburn, MA... we live South of Providence, RI. There is a New Balance store further down on the list half the distance closer in the Wrentham, MA Outlets.

  20. Please fix the CarPlay issues,

    Please fix the CarPlay issues. Directional information covers the speed limit, move the speed limit to the top left? Speed camera notifications cover too much screen, make these transparent? Show the average speed camera distance like on the mobile version of the app. After turning a corner the map takes too long to realise you’ve turned meaning you scan easily miss your next turn if it’s close after.
