  1. Avoid road

    While following a itinerary, have a option inside the “report” button called “my road” which bring back the current map but let you “highlight” with your finger a road you want to avoid, is the option just for this trip, for similar trip, or similar time, or always.
    When making a new itinerary the system will then ask “this include the road you want to avoid, do you want to include it ?”

  3. Verbally Say Speed Limit on Road

    Waze needs to say what the speed limit is on the road verbally. It is dangerous to look down at the phone screen for the speed limit when it is not posted on the road, and you have no idea what it is, especially for those who have difficulty reading small print.

  4. Colourblind friendly options

    It would be great to be able to choose colour palette/s that are colourblind friendly (those who have trouble with particular colours and their shades such as reds, greens etc - such as protanope, dueteranope, tritanope).

    While it would be good to have preset colour palette options…it would be better if we could choose our own set of colours that suit our individual preferences and saved into our profile.

  5. Penalise routing through unpaved roads

    Problem:
    Users with "allow unpaved roads" attribute on the client are oftenly routed through unpaved roads. They complain on why they are routed through these when other routes are available.

    Description:
    Unpaved roads are often rough, uncomfortable and dirty. When the user has selected "allow unpaved roads" they expect to see better routes. When there are no other available options to get to a place, or when the paved option is tens of kilometers longer, then unpaved roads make sense. However, when there are several routes with paved roads and some unpaved roads, users are not expecting to drive through…

  6. Gas price.

    I like to look up the gas prices around me but, you should also place the cash price at stations as well.

  7. Leaderboard: top x% of users

    Congratulations on the relaunch of Leaderboard!

    To enhance the monitoring experience over time, I would like to propose a ranking system based on a percentage of total users within a specific universe. For instance, suppose I am ranked #200 in a country with 1,000 editors. In this scenario, I would be in the top 20% of the rankings.

    If, over the course of a few years, my ranking drops to #300, it might initially seem discouraging. However, this change could be attributed to the local community expanding to 3,000 editors. Consequently, I would still be in the top 10% of…

  8. Refresh cached destinations

    Waze should auto-refresh cached destination locations periodically, for example every 90 days.

    Wazers routing to a prior destination that has been updated are still routed to the old location, because Waze caches the location on the device.

    Wazers are routed to closed businesses. When a Wazer requests a location update and an editor updates it, the Wazer will still be routed to the wrong location, unless they manually go through and clear out the destination.

    Often after an editor updates a Wazer's home address, the Wazer submits multiple reports that it wasn't updated, because the Wazer didn't clear the address…

  9. Adding "Storage" as a category for locations/businesses

    There is currently no "storage" category for facilities that are built for people to, well, store items. Places such as Self Storages and warehouses. Currently, I've been saving them as "other." I want to propose this category addition not just for easier mapping, but easier searching for Waze drivers.

  11. Option to disable new message pop-up

    Can you please give users the option to disable the pop-up when opening the app?

    Active editors will look at replies to their messages while are editing the map.

    Busy editors will reply to dozens of URs every day, and this pop-up is guaranteed to show every single time we open the app.

  12. Add Libby to connected apps

    I use the Libby app for all my audiobooks as it increases library usage statistics and helps with funding for one of our most important public resources. I would love to see it gain more traction by being included as one of the connected apps with Waze like you've done with Spotify & Audible.

  13. Add Exhaust Microphone cameras to “What do you see?” Feature so other drives can report it. Please NYC

    Will Waze add Exhaust microphone cameras to the map? Or can drivers report it? Please add It to “what do you see feature”, so other drivers can confirm.

  16. customize Shortcut buttons on map screen

    I think its better let users to add 3 shortcut buttons(floating or fix) to map screen like ( vehicle stoped, police or anything which user decide) then user can report by one click ,its fast and safe
    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.

  17. Better Apple car play support

    I was driving the other day when I had a road closure. I went to report it on the map via Apple Car Play, but I didn’t have all of the options available to me that I needed to make the report and had to disconnect my phone from the car and try to futz with that while driving (dangerous). Please give us the same reporting tools for Apple car play as we have just on the regular version of the app. Also would be nicer to have an easier way to report road closures, as it’s pretty buried/hard to…

  18. adding no commercial plates filter

    Allowing a filter for choosing passenger cars only routes or commercial vehicles allowed. This would be helpful to plan routes and side routes avoiding parkways or roads in the NYC area which do not allow commercial plated vehicles on those roads

  19. One Touch for vehicle stopped on shoulder

    For me 9 out of 10 hazard reports are a vehicle stopped on the shoulder. It takes 3 taps. I suggest to create a new button on the main screen that does the report in one tap only - like a macro. It will be safer and easie

  20. Schitts creek cast option- this would be amazing

    I know Moira Rose has been suggested-maybe do a whole cast option- this would be amazing - Diff voices for different things - Patrick and MrRose for corrections, David Moria Alexis for dramatic voices, etcetera. It would be spectacular!
