Reorganziable reports and reports on the main screen customization
We should be able to organize the report types so it is easier to click certain ones. Also I’d be cool if we could permanently pin certain reposts on the screen so they are quicker to choose for more common reports in our areas

Allow us to create customizable single press shortcut button for hazard reporting etc.
Too many steps to press while driving to report hazard etc can be dangerous. Why not allow users to create a customizable single press shortcut button for reporting car on shoulder or object on road instead of multiple steps of pressing buttons to get to the final issue. ie. not needing to press Hazard and then having to search the type of hazard in the small phone screen while driving. A single shortcut would be much easier. The most commonly used report for me is car on shoulder so why not just allow me to create that single shortcut.

Animals
Please bring back the option to report animals. Who decided to remove it? I can report gas prices at the press of a button but I can’t alert anyone to Bambi skipping across the road?

"Roadkill" is no longer an available option to select when reporting a Hazard! Why?
Add "Roadkill" back! 1000's of Wazers are asking the same question! Do you not listen to your followers? Geez!

Suggest reports expire when “reported not there” by a number of Wazers
Reports are expiring before they should. From personal experience I have seen reports of Roadworks, Police Speed Checks etc. expire on Waze before they are actually over. Is it possible to expire all reports when a number of Wazers report them “Not There”.
A footnote to this is what happened to me today. We went to Town to do some shopping etc. and reported three different Roadworks. Coming home the three Roadworks were still happening but had disappeared on Waze. I started reporting them again but on the last one I got a Warning for Over Reporting and would lose…1 vote -
Snabbknapp för vägskada (potthål)
Snabbknapp för vägskada (potthål) vilka finns överallt och orsakar skador på bilar samt att folk kastar bilen för att undvika dessa. Vore dessutom bra att ha snabbval för var på vägen,höger,vänster eller mitten, samt vilken fil på vägen faran finns.

“Later”
Please reinstall the “Later” feature to the app. It makes it easier to report traffic issues while driving. For example to report a stalled vehicle on the side of the road it’s easier to save it for “Later” just in case you come up on it quickly or from around a curve. This feature allowed a quick response to report accurately.

Want to be able to put in more cop info and a comment!
I want to be able to post there’s a cop what kind of car it is I want to be able to put in what type of car it is (motorcycle, truck, undercover, suv, car) and whether it’s a hidden police car. I want the ability to put in more info on my own on a comment so I can say it’s a hidden cop car that always hides by the school. Ect. Or a motorcycle bike that always hides behind a fence by the street. The police in our area tend to hide pretty well would be helpful for…

Time of report, skip option
Dear Waze Team,I hope this message finds you well. I am a regular user of the Waze app and would like to share a couple of suggestions that I believe could enhance the user experience for everyone.Option to Skip Traffic Cop Reports: Often, when users report a traffic cop on the road, it would be beneficial to have an option to indicate whether the cop is still present or has moved. Adding a "skip" option alongside "report" and "confirm" would provide more accurate real-time updates to fellow drivers.Display Time Since Report: It would be incredibly helpful if the app could…

Easier reporting
Hi
Firstly, thank you for this amazing app. I've passed on to several friends now.
My question is about reporting everyone's pet hate, Potholes!
Over the past few weeks I've submitted loads of locations while travelling but most of the time doing the average legal speed, by the time its been 'logged' either by tapping the appropriate icons or doing it via voice command, the pothole is then maybe several yards or more, behind me.My concern is that their locations won't always be spot on. Can I assume that when my screen comes alive with someone else's report that..…

Allow us to add or remove speed cameras
We should be allowed to add speeding cameras. I live in DC and the mayor adds and move cameras constantly. it’s new cameras everywhere and they aren’t on Waze. It’s no option to add them. So it doesn’t help me if I see a camera and I cannot warn others of a camera that has been added. That should be changed. We can add traffic and other hazards why not cameras too.

Speed bumps and closed roads in CarPlay
Currently we report speed bumps as potholes. If we could report them differently, nobody would expect a speed bump to disappear. And you could sell pothole information to local governments for pothole fixing planning.
I love being able to report closed roads. But I can’t do it using CarPlay. That should be possible, otherwise the app will try to send us again through the same blocked road. Please fix this.4 votes -
Quickfire pothole and road flooded button
Add a pothole report button that does not need to be found through the sub menu options and also create a flooded road button that shows the depth of flood and asks drivers if it has gone by the hour

Ability to report a closed turnaround
Waze lacks the ability to report closed turnarounds, a critical feature in Michigan where the “Michigan left” is largely the only way to cross a divided highway. This significantly impacts travel time and route accuracy due to inaccurate ETAs and suggestions, leading to frustration and potential safety concerns.

Need arrival and departure times in timeline
I need to have arrival times in the history timeline so I know when to pick up my kids or pets. I have to pick them up within a five hour window. Every place I drive to or depart from does not show the arrival times or departures. Can this be a feature? Google maps has it.

Ability to set an Editor Email
I've already seen this suggestion https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59225-map-editor-suggestions/suggestions/41506807-ur-reply-via-email but I thought this would be a nice compromise.
Let editors set an Editor Email in WME, that becomes the reply-to address on report emails (for those who don't know: there is a difference between the reply-to and sent email address). The sent email can be changed to something like userreports@waze.com and then the editor can just receive the reply to their editor email.
Just to clarify, by editor email, I mean our own email addresses we already have for editing related things (e.g. deviatefromtheplan.waze@gmail.com), rather than Waze creating email addresses for us.…
