Mitigate the risk of burning pixels
I use Waze daily for about 1 to 2 hours as it's an essential tool for navigating through a crowded city. However, after approximately 3 to 4 years of consistent use, I've noticed that my mobile phone is beginning to display burnt pixels, precisely in the shape of the Waze triangle icon located in the bottom right corner, also in the speed limit sign, and along the bottom bar. I kindly request that you address this issue for future users by implementing mitigation actions, such as floating menus or options to hide them. Thank you in advance for your attention…

Touch screen lock
Lock the screen for unwanted touch. Same as netflix you can lock the touch screen but the video is still playing.
It is importent for bike user when you nevigate in the rain. The drops activate the screen and u have to put plastic bag over the phone .
Would be much easier to just lock the screen same way netflix does1 vote -
Option to sort, and save, Favourites order
Please, give us an option to sort our Favourites alphabetically and from the most recent to the older (and vice versa), and that change to be saved!
It's 2024, someone already requested it (or something identical) in 2016 and Waze doesn't seem to care.

Sorry if there's a post for this already that I can't find but is there a way to prevent/stop/disable banner notifications from OTHER apps w
Disable all iPhone notifications while using waze to drive, iPhone notifications are distracting while driving and the driver is sometimes forced to remove the iPhone notifications while they are driving which is very unsafe

Speed up the opening page
App lacks responsiveness when first open. This has gotten worst over time.
When open. I want to select or enter location, but WAZE is none responsive “tapping on screen has no effect”. This all happens during initial entry.

Stop route button in landscape mode
Why is there no stop route button in landscape mode? It doesn't seem like to be a wise idea to not have all the same user interfaces as you do in portrait mode.

More set locations
add the option to add more set destinations that are interchangeable for things like school or a second or third workplace.
trying to scroll through while driving to have to find my school as my set workplace is inconvenient when i have to also need a workplace but having to scroll through all my past drives to get to my workplace/very common destinations is quite annoying to do while driving or even at a red light

Notification prioritisation
Sometimes when there is a vehicle stopped near a speed camera, the app will prioritise showing the stopped vehicle over the speed camera. Can we have a setting to allow us to set notification priorities to dictate which notifications are shown ahead of others.

Phone Charging Indication while navigating with app
It would be great to have an icon on the map display indicates that your phone is charging or plugged in while navigating with the waze app. There have been several times while driving and my phone was accidentally not correctly seated in the car charging cradle. I was navigating on battery power and the only indication was when I received a low battery warning notification from the phone OS. This can be very inconvenient when going on long drives or a safety concern when in unfamiliar areas or if one is stranded and the phone has no or low…

My "home" and "work" saved addresses used to always be above all other recently used addresses. Why isn't this happening anymore?
My "home" and "work" saved addresses used to always be above all other recently used addresses. Why isn't this happening anymore? Once I enter any other address, home and work are bumped down. I drive to several places a day, so this is very annoying. And I do NOT go to the office every day.

On Android the "report an issue" isn't available
I tried to report a freeway entrance closure, but the "tapping of arrows" wasn't working.. when i tried to do it.
After finding how to report the issue.. i found that the "report an issue" option wasn't an option in settings as described in the response to the Waze support email i sent.

Improve vertical UI on iPhone
Please fix the vertical user interface on iPhone! It is a complete mess, with large blacked out areas unnecessarily blocking the useful map space, therefore limiting our map vision and app experience, also the shortcuts or pop-ups are difficult to reach/click. Moreover, it doesn’t show a green line when entering part of the road under avg speed radar control. It should be an easy fix, just look at the carplay version, or maybe take ideas from google or apple maps. I am literally switching to other map providers because I have a terrible experience of using waze in vertical mode.

1-3 physical button for dashboard mounting
I don’t want to use a screen interface to do my critical input reporting (roadside hazards, police). Nor do I want to use voice, which is messy and impractical when traveling with several people in the car. The ideal solution (IMO) would keep people from shifting their eyes to a screen or using their voice in scenarios where they have multiple people (ie kids!) in the car.
Instead, I would love to see either Waze offer a programmable hardware button set that we can map the most important actions to the buttons for easy tactile reporting. If Waze doesn’t want…

Waze zoom
While using Waze on Android Auto, request that the map zoom to remain active when the user uses the + or - zoom function. The + or - zoom button function currently resets to a preset full out view within a few seconds after increasing map zoom and is not maintaining the zoom view the user selects.

New interface changes are super uncomfortable and not user-friendly
Earlier to zoom out and check the route one needed to press in the bottom right corner. Now you need to tap on the screen, then press top left corner icon first and then zoom out or zoom in still in the right bottom corner. This is not good as you cover the screen with your hand while driving, and then need to make sure you will press the right button when moving all over the screen. Having these actions in the bottom left corner all together would cause much less friction.
Thank you.
