Large boxes at bottom left and right for "not there" and "still there" options rather than small buttons to make them easier to press
I often miss the buttons with my finger as they're too small on bumpy roads. Also, enable Google assistant commands "Hey Google, still there" or "hey Google, not there" to save having to press the buttons at all. Much safer whilst driving.

Can you please provide sorting methods for favorite addresses! Sort by name, distance, zipcode? It's so difficult to find anything!!!

It help to make fast reports , current situation is user have to make 2/ 3 steps to make report, on busy roads its very useful.4 votes -
Latest saved addresses
Hi Good Day
I trust you are well.
My name is Brad and I'm a big fan of Waze. Been using it ever since I discovered it. Thank you for creating such a fun and practical navigating app.
I have a suggestion though, if I may, please can you make an adjustment to where newly saved addresses are shown. When I plan a new journey to a place I put in the address and save it to use later. The update I would like to suggest is to have the latest saved addresses appear at the top of the saved…

Plan a drive screen should have a 'switch direction' option
Sometimes the time I want to leave to a place in the morning will depend on the estimated traffic for when I return... It will be much easier to plan if you don't have to start a new drive plan for the opposite direction.

Full screen speedometer option on phone
It would be nice to have the option to have a full screen speedometer with speed limits. Motorcycle speedometers can be 10% off, so most of the time I use Waze as a speedometer (with a map), it would be nice if I could tap the speedometer and make it go to full screen big speedometer display, then tap again to return to the map if I need it.
I've tried other GPS just speedometer, but then I lose Waze (And those aren't very accurate like your speedometer is).

Velocímetro y notificación de exceso de velocidad configurables en tamaño y posición
Hola,
Lo primero felicitarles el nuevo año 2023.
Felicitarles también por su extraordinaria aplicación.Soy una persona con 62 años de edad, con prebicia por la edad. Esto es una dificultad al mirar la pantalla del navegador integrado en el coche. Hay que desviar la vista a un lateral y las gafas que corrigen la presbicia solo permiten ver bien las imágenes cuando los ojos están centrados, por lo que es difícil ver bien y rápido el velocímetro o la alerta de exceso de velocidad en la posición en la que actualmente se encuentra. Este problema, estoy convencido, le ocurre…

Outside temperature on screen through the vehicle systems rather than the gathered external weather data.
Vehicles gather outside temperatures as part of the computer systems and display it on on the infotainment screens. I would like this temperature displayed rather than that gathered from the weather data. It would be more accurate and use less data.

Manual sorting of places like google maps
I have a list of favorites like everyone but because it is out of order it is hard to fine (Please refer to my "More organization by..." suggestion. the list seems to be in the order of saves and cannot be sorted.
Even if it is possible to group them in a folder it still would not be able to sort it, Not Auto sorting because of the different names but manual sorting like on google maps. I feel It is a quality of life thing, same as my other suggestion.4 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

More organization by grouping locations together
My waze is sprawling with locations that I find it hard to find things fast.
We need a way to organize the locations.
Like the existing Home. Home has its own clear folder and not jumbled up among all sorts of locations.I would like to suggest other folders like "City" or "Beaches" or "Cinemas". I can place all my shops and locations that I frequent to inside it.
At the moment I have to look through a whole list to find it. Horrible!

Add housenumber (voeg huisnummer) button to the search results
Voeg alsjeblieft een huisnummer knop toe bij de resultaten van de bestemmingen zodat je niet de hele straat hoeft te typen
Please add a housenumber button to the results of the destinations so you dont have to typ the whole street4 votes -
"User state" option
"User state" option: Invite the user to each opening of the application, to choose the way in which it is going to be mobilized (always open in default with the last state)
In this way, Waze will be able to immediately segregate user data when it does not correspond to, for example, driving a car.
1) driver of (a) car; (b) Taxi driver -uber etc-; (c) buses; (d) loaded truck; (e) empty truck
2) passenger of (a) car; (b) Taxi -uber etc-; (c) bus, train, tram, subway passenger; (d) loaded truck; (e) empty truck
3) cyclist;
4) pedestrian;

Request Waze make a slight programing change to the on-screen alert display.
Put the "Still There" above the warning message with the "Not There" below it. I sometimes try to touch the correct response and my vehicle moves just a little and I end up touching the wrong response.

Link Waze with emergency dispatch centers
I work with a volunteer ambulance corp in NJ. When an emergency call comes in from the 911 dispatch center we are given and address. We have to manually enter into Waze or onboard computer. This wastes time and has many user errors - wrong spelling. Wrong number. And takes valuable time away from responding to scene. It would be great if Waze integrated with these 911 centers and the address and route is prepopulated as we head to the emergency. Thank you.

In app widget
A great feature would be an in app widget for reports. Let the users choose a report shortcut to be added on the map. Just push one button of choice to send a report. It would be much better for safety.
My reports consists mostly of car on shoulder, I’d love to add a shortcut for that on my map.4 votes -
Shortcuts for Hazard Reports
When using the Hazard Report feature in Waze I often find that:
1) I use 1 to 3 reports a LOT more often than any others.
2) I often find that selecting these hazard icons using the current method is fiddly, dangerous when driving, and slow, resulting in the report being sent late, often about 100 meters or more past the hazard.
My improvement idea is to add 1 to 3 hazard SHORTCUTS that "slide out" for selection from the existing hazard report icon (yellow triangle) on the FIRST touch, they would then "slide in" again after selection to avoid…

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 .3 votes -
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.
