  1. Issues with new update

    There are a number of issues with the new Android Waze update. I think it is obvious that the developers use the app on a large screen. The speed limit and current speed are far too small to read while driving. The circle with the speed in it is about 1/2" in diameter on a 7" screen. The speed text and the speed limit are under 1/4" and are very hard to read.

    Also, when in full screen display, if one provides a location to navigate to, Waze shows the command in the dialog box, but does nothing. If one…

  2. Make the "speed camera" warning smaller in landscape

    Hi :-)
    I've been using Waze for a long time and I enjoy using it a lot.

    However lately the bar that shows arrival time has grown, leaving less space for the map.

    That's not the worst though. The worst is that, when nearing a speed camera or speed enforcement zone, the warning covers almost half the screen, pushing the speedometer behind the directions. As you can maybe surmise, I'd really like to be able to see how fast I'm going when nearing a speed camera.

    I use the app in landscape because that's the least intrusive way to fix…

  4. Planning route

    There is currently an issue with route planning, where if you are trying to plan a route the app automatically assumes that the trip is for "today." However if the time to travel the route will take you past midnight, then the app essentially gets stuck in a loop of trying to recalculate the arrival time, without letting you change the day for the planned arrival. This should be rectified so that you don't need to wait until after midnight to plan a route. This is problematic especially for longer routes.

  5. Afficher un symbole quand Éviter les autoroutes est actif

    Quand on roule en moto, on aime éviter les autoroutes. Mais parfois, pour gagner du temps, on doit les prendre. Afficher une icône pour signaler que l’évitement d’autoroutes est activé ou non serait bien utile quand on définit son itinéraire.

    There are new red light cameras in effect in Honolulu. Many are active and more to come this month. I wish this would be shown or easily marked because they are stationary cameras

  9. New app idea

    I work for a county road and bridge department. I was wondering if there was a way to use the Waze app to report things like washed out roads, trees in the road, or other things we might have to fix.

  12. "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;

  13. Display alphabet and voice guiding

    Hello Waze developres!

    I just drove through countries that use other alphabets than latin (cyrillic, greek). Waze gave me two nasty surprizes.

    First: place names are displayed using the local alphabet, ignoring my interface language choice. Reading names / finding a place was impossible while driving, although i partially know those alphabets. Imagine having to stop on a highway just to find a place. I had to blindly follow the path to intended final destination, without being able to recognize anything on route. I strongly suggest displaying place names in an alphabet matching the user selection for interface language. Or…

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. Add option to drop pin at the location we want to go AND to save as special destinations (Home, Work, etc).... instead of just key in the ad

    Add option to drop pin at the location we want to go AND to save as special destinations (Home, Work, etc).... instead of just key in the address. Been years, but still so typical... in the name of minimalistic 🤦🏻‍♂️❤️🌌✨.

  20. Simplify feedback buttons

    Currently there are two option buttons on the display, regarding a reported event. These are "Still there" and "Not there". But as your default setting is "Still there" in case of no action from the user, I think it would be better to have a single button, and that should be "Not there". In this way would be more easy for the user to push that button while driving. In the current situation sometimes I miss the right answer because the two buttons are close and I have to be attentive to the road while giving feedback.
