Reativação de múltiplas caronas no Waze Carpool - taxa a partir do segundo usuário na mesma carona
O Waze Carpool é uma ótima ideia no compartilhamento de caronas para redução de veículos no tráfego da cidade. Inicialmente poderíamos oferecer até 4 lugares no veículo e era bom pra todos. Minha sugestão é que, invés de limitar a carona a 1 pessoa, o Waze ter a taxa de serviço de 10% a partir da segunda carona no mesmo roteiro, para que tenha recursos na manutenção e aperfeiçoamento da ferramenta. Eu já fazia o Carpool da mesma forma que a ferramenta foi lançada e o único desafio era centralizar a colaboração, algo que o Waze Carpool complementou. Obrigado a…

When Searching for "FUEL", add [Nearest] or [Along Route] selector/modifier.
Not only is this needed, but it also needs good UX to make what's happening clear.
In the OVERWHELMING MAJORITY of situations, I want the CLOSEST gas station AHEAD (or on my current) route. It could be something as easy as a modal popup that says [BUTTON] in brackets:
[Shortest Distance] or [Nearest Ahead]
Where [Shortest] = "oh my .... I'm on fumes and need fuel NOW"
And
[Nearest Ahead] just does a quick check of your current route, a little balancing to find the shortest route with a 10-minute "lookahead" and presents the user with a list that INCLUDES:…

Search results should sort by distance
When searching for stores for example, I get results hundreds of miles away. This is really bad when in the car and searching via voice returns a list of locations that I need to scroll through to find the actual closest one.
Using the city name doesn't always return the closest if there are multiple locations in a city or if I'm in an unknown city or on the highway. Search results should be sorted based on distance, not some random result.

Bring back searching on saved first
Bring back the feature that when you start typing a place on the search bar, the app would first try to find the place in your saved places. For example, I have my friend William's place saved as "William". If I start typing the letter W, the app would automatically bring as the first suggestion, "William". Now it doesn't and it slow me down a lot...

Location vs route in search
It's super annoying that when I search a location, if I've never navigated to it, I can tap on it to see its info card, where if I have navigated there before, I can only start a route to that location. The only way for me to see the info card is to search and then look around the map for the location I want, if it even finds it, and tap on the map. The listed results should be just locations, unless you've navigated there recently, then show two options, one to route and one to see the info…

Show search results on map
Waze search results are objectively inferior both in app and on android auto/carplay as compared to other popular navigation apps such as gmaps or apple maps.
Both of those apps display search results on a map view, with A, B, C etc pins with a selectable list on the side, and this works in app and on the in car head unit display. Google Maps also has a MUCH cleaner "add a stop" workflow.
This is a critical and basic feature gap that makes competing map applications much easier to use for searching9 votes -
RPPs should allow alternate street names
Residential Place Points are limited to a single entry for the Street Name field. This creates an issue when streets have multiple names, not just officially but also in signage at different intersections.
An example, local to myself, is OR-99W. This is a state route, so it has its numbered designation (OR-99W), as well as its route name, which is carried through every city it traverses (Pacific Highway West). However, signage for this road in a single city can and does vary between either of those names, plus other, more localized variations (SW Pacific Hwy, Pacific Hwy (without directionals), etc.).

Search certain area
When trying to find a spot on the map, there should be an option to update the search area. Google let us manually update it, and Apple does it automatically. I don't see why Waze users should not have this essential feature for navigating new places. Thank you

The search autofill/sugestions
When trying to navigate to certain place that I don't know the adress to exactly, I'm required to either type in the whole name of the place, or hope the right adress appears.
So why not sugest what I'm trying to find just like any other navigation/maps work?
If I type "Apple" It should show me suggestion for either applebee's locations or maybe apple store. Thank you2 votes -
To be able to add house numbers with a slash!
Should be able to write unit numbers when searching for an address i.e. '1/23 Fake Street'.
Currently, Waze doesn't acknowledge the unit number and will show up with only '23 Fake Street'.
Need to be able to make a search for a destination of a house with a different unit number which might be a few houses down from where Waze ends up directing you to. (if all the units are in a row on the street)2 votes -

Stop reversing coordinates formats in Waze Live Map
When you paste coordinates from Google Maps to Waze Live Map, what's long on Google Maps becomes Lat and vice versa. This is not the case for WME or Waze app. Can it be the same to facilitate search?

Uma ideia
Bom dia, Uma ideia!!! Há alguma possibilidade de uma junção do Waze e WhatsApp para auxiliar o Serviço de Atendimento Móvel de Urgência e Emergência (SAMU), no Brasil? Exemplo: Enviar a localização exata para a base do SAMU. e as ambulâncias chegarem em tempo habil e preciso até a vitima. Informações do estado da vítima... através do WhatsApp para o Médico regulado na Base.

Delete Google Address (HN) pin
I run into this issue often and have not been able to find a real solution. Waze is displaying both Waze results and GMaps results for a house number. The GMaps result is way off (across town on the wrong street). I’ve gone to Google and moved the pin to the correct location. I’ve received a response from Google stating the place has been updated and to give it 24 hours.
Several days later, the bad Google pin remains and the user submits more URs. I’ve confirmed the issue still remains. There needs to be a way to delete a…
