Rettungsgasse / Rescue Lane - Reminder while traffic jams
In Germany and most European countries, you are supposed to form a rescue lane whilst being in a traffic jam on a highway/Autobahn.
This emergency corridor is always between the very left lane and the one next to her, so all cars need to move to the very left / very right on those lanes, making enough space to let emergency vehicles through.
After several incidents where people died after emergency services being stuck in the traffic jam, the German government wants to increase the sentence on ppl not making space for the rescue lane.My Suggestion:

It would be great if I could add a custom date for Planned Routes
It would be great if I could add a custom date for Planned Routes. I have an event I'd like to plan a route for, but it's in September. Other times, I don't know what day specifically it will be. Other times I know the specific date, but not what day of week it is.

Team up with Pokemon for rare pokemon locations.
Rare pokemon are hard to find, but they are always in set locations for a small period of time, just like a traffic accident. You could easily piggypack the popularity of Pokemon Go and get a ton of people to use your app for finding and reporting rarer pokemon locations.

We offer special voices for holidays, events, and just for fun.
You can use these for the length of the promotion. When the promotion ends, your voice will reset to the default and the voice will no longer appear in the Sound menu.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!

Hazard Acknowledgement
Hazard Acknowledgement:
I meet way too many “out of date" hazards, so this is my suggestion.
On Waze, when a driver is approaching a hazard, a dialog box should appear. In the dialog box it should read: “Hazard still here?” The driver should then have the option to press a “Yes” button or a “No” button.
There should also be a timing and a colour code system. i.e. If the “Yes” button is pressed the clock will reset to zero, the hazard icon will stay/change to red. Other drivers can then click the hazard icon and see that this hazard…

sync favorites
Why can't Waze sync my "Favorites" between my multiple devices? This is an issue that's been requested for years now, by many Waze users, and I just don't understand why it is so difficult to implement, especially since so many other apps have managed to figure it out!

Police on East Coast using Waze?
My friends and I, spread out in a few states on the east coast have noticed the police are using waze and Untagging themselves at the location of speed traps. This actually has been confirmed by an officer in Central New Jersey. Since many Waze users use the app for the police notifications I suggest in order to remove a police notification 2-3 DIFFERENT waze users must hit "not there"... I would seriously consider adding this sooner than later, maybe in the next update
Thanks for the great app

Allow default sharing of route to android share rather than internal sharing mechanism
Currently sharing is done to an alphabetical user list from my contacts. This is of course kind of silly since most of us use waze for navigation but not as a means of communication. I would like to see the old sharing back as default (share via other app), or even better - remember which app i used last to share and offer it as default. In the past 4 years I have shared my ride not via whatsapp only once, and that was into facebook chat.

When I hit the park button, make it so that I can find my car later (with an arrow and distance) so I can find my car.
They make apps to do this and Waze almost has everything you need. It could be great if Waze suggested it after you stop moving for a period of time at your destination.

TTS language setting
TTS is currently forced to a single language based on the country you are in. If you travel to other country, waze will speak wrong words.
Just a setting to change it will be enough.23 votes -

Rerouting dialog is obtrusive
When waze reroutes or changes ETA it pops up a dialog "Rerouting" or "Your ETA has changed due to ...". Especially the rerouting dialog is annoying as it obstructs a clear view of the map which you most likely need at that moment. A small spinner in the corner of your screen (maybe in the green nav-bar?) and the audible warning should be enough. Maybe a "Don't show again" button on those dialogs?

Use special tiles for not downloaded areas
Let the waze client use a special tile for not downloaded areas. When on a slow connection you sometimes realise there's no road where you are, so you enable construction mode just to realise a minute later that the roads in the area just weren't finished downloading to your phone yet.

Bring back the old speedometer position (bottom left corner)
With the latest update, the speedometer on the mobile app has moved from the bottom left corner to the center of the bottom edge of the screen. This new position is distracting and interferes with map visibility, especially when checking upcoming turns or traffic info.
The previous placement in the bottom left corner was much more intuitive and out of the way. Please consider giving users the option to choose the speedometer position, or revert it back to where it was.
