  1. Please put in place a repeat command/direction.

    Directions/commands are sometimes hard to hear or missed. A repeat function is essential and absolutely necessary!

    Thank you.

  2. Waze API

    Unsure in which forum this falls, but the idea is to have an API which developers could use to use Waze information on their websites or apps.

  3. carpool match

    I would like to use Waze to match me with carpool buddies. Waze has a large community of active users, already knows my origin and destination as well as time of day that I leave for and from work. It also has all this information for people in the neighborhood.

    If Wazers can indicate if they are open to carpooling, then Waze can help connect them.

    There are some apps like Avego that try to help, but because they have such few users, they aren't useful.

    Would you prefer to carpool if you could ?

  4. Allow viewing on mobile while connected to android auto

    When my phone is connected to Android Auto, viewing the app on the phone is disabled but not all features are enabled on the car display which are often needed. I cannot change my vehicle type (car/motorcycle), I cannot share my ride, if I am not currently navigated I cannot change alert settings.

  6. Make Waze more useful for buses and trucks

    Make Waze more useful for buses and trucks. So i can choose that i drive one of those vehicles and not just between only a car, taxi or motorcycle. And can specify how tall the vehicle is. And Waze then navigates you so that you arrive without suddenly arriving at a bridge that is too low, for example

  7. GPS-Provide Street Names

    GPS Feature-It would be greatly appreciated if street names are given, especially for turns, e.g., turn left "on Main Street", etc. or red light up ahead on "Stone Street". My car's GPS (which I rarely use anymore) has that feature and it's great. There have been a few times, particularly when approaching a short street, that Waze says turn left and by the time I get to the corner, I realize I was supposed to turn on "that" corner and it's too late. So I then have to backtrack. But if the street name is given as the driver is…

    Hey, 

    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.

    We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

    Thanks!

  8. Jai Haze for New Waze Voice

    Jai Haze is a well known YouTube Vape Reviewer with a comedic voice that’s a cross between Vince Vaughn and Jersey Shore, let’s get Jais Voice on Waze, Jammies and all, to bring his comedic wittiness to our morning commutes! Can you just play him in the backround of Waze? Yes you can obviously but wouldn’t it be more of a fun matrix like commute with him reviewing the new Vape Device in the backround and him also telling you to turn your Jammy left?

  9. Prefer main roads

    Please install main roads button, so in cities I take main roads instead of all those side roads just to save a minute but burn way more petroleum and drive zip zag. So if the roads will be similar time waze would preafare main roads, if time would be different fore 5 minutes and more it would take side roads. This would help especially on long journies, we're I can not zoom in every little city all the time.

  11. Rodízio de veículos São Paulo

    Na cidade de São Paulo existe rodízio de veículos pelo numero final da placa. Gostaria de sugerir uma alteração que quando o usuário digitasse algum endereço pertencente à área de restrição ou que tivesse que cruzar tal área, que fosse alertado sobre o final da placa que está impedido de circular e o horário. Seria interessante também se permitisse programar a saída para entrar e sair da área restrita no horário em que não sofresse multa, talvez com algum alerta.

  12. vietnamese

    It might be very attractive to a wide range of users here but what you need is to implement Vietnamese language, in this case we can support you as a partner. We are specialized in technical translations and working in software development since over 16 years.

    So it will be great if we can find a way to collaborate in this point.

  13. Add an "Avoid traffic" routing option

    I don't mind adding a few minutes to my trip if it means I can keep moving and not get stuck in traffic. Waze already has the data to make this type of routing possible.

    For various reasons drivers may wish to avoid tunnels when navigating. This should be an option along side with Avoid Highways and Avoid Toll Roads.

  15. navigation waypoints

    Only mapquest currently features navigation waypoints.

    On a journey from locationA to locationZ one might want to pre-plan gas fill up locations, or additional points of interest. These are waypoints, or places to stop along the way.

    LocationA to locationB to locationC ... to locationZ

    To accomplish this now in Waze is a bit tedious

    locationA to locationB
    locationB to locationC
    locationC to locationZ

    One ought be able to enter all the locations and either specify the order of the waypoints OR allow waze to optimize some- or…

  16. Radar alert with visual speed information

    I suggest inserting the speed information into the radar notification. The notification now only reports that there is a radar a few meters ahead, not to mention speed. The radar speeds are all set up in the Waze maps, being information that can be easily extracted. The feature would certainly help many users, even eliminating the use of applications that perform this function. I also recommend that in settings there be options to "always be notified", "be notified only when above speed" or "never be notified." Allowing the user to decide on notifications.

  17. Bring back Friends feature

    Friends feature was a great feature and we would like to get it back. As mentioned on multiple conferences it was a "thing" in Waze which was diffenret in Waze app, it was something close to gamification and it was bringing users to the app.

    Tkanks for every vote!

    Friend feature was removed to make some place for Carpool - that was said by Waze many times. Now, Carpool is dead and Google is trying to implement Friends feature - that's why we would like to have it back!

    Adding a feature for reporting incidents of arson in nature reserves. The feature will notify the firefighters and share the direct location.

  20. Night Mode on all User Interface Elements

    When you're in Night Mode the map is, essentially, reversed in color; light things are dark, dark things are light. This is not true for any of the other user interface elements. Search, popups, reporting... all are very bright and very distracting. These interfaces should also be reversed, that is, dark grey backgrounds with light gray text.
