  2. "Add a stop" by default

    Hi,
    When I click on "Add a stop", I want to add a stop. I don't want to make a "New drive".
    So "Add a stop" button should be active by default instead of "New drive".

    Thanks!

  3. Warn drivers that attempt changing the name of a place.

    Recently I have seen (and rejected) many name changes on places where people attempt to change the name to one they would like to see as a shortcut name in their destinations.
    Waze should warn them when they attempt to change the name of any place and provide an option to properly nickname a routing destination without changing the name everyone sees.
    I usually send them a message via Chat when this happens and reject their changes, but it would be better if Waze did the warning .

  4. Under Fuel Type, it would be great to select 100% Gasoline

    For those shopping for 100% Gas, the first step is to be able to select such under Fuel Type. Especially when you need 100% for chainsaws, etc.

  5. Colour code hazard reporting

    colour code the hazard ‘boxes’ on the reporting screen.
    Wazers past the age of 40 may struggle to see the hazard icons and text - would be useful to have those colour coded so that eyes are off the road for the shortest possible time.

  6. Add the possibility to add button/icons on the main screen for the most important hazars,

    It would be necessary to have the possibility to add on the main screen some buttons/icons for the main hazards, like potholes, car on shoulder, car crash, so that it is not necessary to push several buttons while driving.
    The alternative are to stop and report the hazards or to don't report because it makes no sense that we have to push several buttons while driving.. Either cases the utility of using Waze would be very limited or very dangerous

  7. Updated alternate route feature.

    My account has been selected to use the updated alternate route feature.

    Based on my experience, the UX/UI of the previous version is much better than the latest, I can easily compare the 3 routes on 1 page, but the updated alternative routes features require scrolling to do the comparison, I will need to remember the routes, total distance, arrival time before scrolling to the 2nd and 3rd route options for comparison and this defeat the purpose of the update?

    Sorry to say that I don't see the benefit of this updated alternate route option.

  9. Don't move buttons and change icons in the same release

    There have been far too many times that icons for reporting things have been changed AND the icon locations have been rearranged all in one release. This leaves me staring at the screen wondering where "report vehicle at the side of the road" has gone to - the pic isn't the same and the icon in that spot from yesterday is different.

    Sure, we're not supposed to use it while driving, but hey, probably 90% of users are the only one in the car when making reports. Do NOT make it more difficult for us.

  10. Ajouter des lieux favoris personnalisable en raccourci en plus de travail et domicile (par ex école ou travail du conjoint)

    Il serait très pratique d'avoir davantage de lieux favoris personnalisables en raccourci en plus de travail et domicile (par exemple l'école des enfants ou le travail du conjoint).

  11. Allow Waze UI to be the same for both android and ios

    I have an IPhone 15 Pro max running on version 4.101.2 and I have a Samsung Galaxy S23 running on version 4.101.0.1

    When using the navigation the map on the Iphone seems accurate and the map size is very comfortable compared to the Samsung as the map size is not as close.

    Do you know when Samsung will get this update?

  12. Search bar Rework + Favorites Customization

    The search feature feels a little bit messy. Instead of having your recent searches listed under your favorites, let’s add a button for recent searches, just like the buttons for gas, food, etc. Next, Instead of having only your work and home favorites listed, let’s list all of your favorite places under the search bar. You can also add the ability to customize your other favorites with icons similar to work and home. A school icon would be very popular, and adding a boy or a girl icon for a friend’s house could be useful. You could also add other…

  13. Bug in display of upcoming turns in iOS 15.8

    You guys broke the list of upcoming turns in one of the recent upgrades. Instead of showing the upcoming turns, the display shows the next turn at the top of the list (as normal), but the rest of the list contains prior turns and suggestions. I was only able to clear it by exiting the app, re-opening it, and choosing the option to continue the previous trip. This is extremely confusing and dangerous. Please fix it.

  15. Partage

    C’est vraiment dommage que vous ayez modifié la façon de partager les itinéraires, car auparavant les personnes favorites apparaissaient directement. en deux clics, c’était partagé…
    Aujourd’hui, il faut quatre clics pour pouvoir partager notre itinéraire à quelqu’un, quel dommage !

  16. New option to “add next” addition to “add stop”

    Today, we can add a stop before the final destination. Why not all so an option to add a next destination after we arrive at the first destination?

  17. Drop a pin, select the wrong report category, but you cannot go back to correct like before

    Release 4.101 is a step backwards. When I drop a pin and mistakenly select the wrong kind of report (for example tapping Police when I really wanted to tap Hazard) you can no longer go back to make the correct choice, you have to cancel the pin drop and start from scratch. The problem is now the new pin will be a few hundred yards further down the road than the hazard, which is not useful, especially for potholes, debris and the like. Please restore the ability to keep the pin drop but go back to the initial "What do…

  19. Simpler access to placing alerts

    I suggest making it easier to reach the alert screen when trying to report police, accident etc. right now it takes 3 screens to reach the proper icon. Consider making it a shortcut where perhaps the user can select to have shortcut icons on the main nav screen so that it would only take one tap to report a situation. Maybe allow users to have 2 or 3 favorite or most useful icons, like police or disabled vehicles. Would make it safer as well since the driver wouldn’t have to be distracted by navigating multiple screens to report an jssue

  20. Add “avoid freeways” to drop down menu on map screen.

    It would be super useful to have the option to avoid freeway’s using the drop down list instead of having to scroll through all the preferences to find it. Especially once you’ve already started driving, and you want to change routes. It’s much more useful than “avoid ferries” when you live in a big city. I have 3 freeways near my home, and when I need to go just a few miles it always wants to put on a freeway just to have me get off one exit later.
