I mailed a letter to you at 240 Hamilton Avenue, Palo Alto, CA; it was returned. What is your mailing address, please?
On the app, sometimes the map is replaced by a list of turns. There is no "close." How can I get the map back, please? Linda Barth, barthlinda123@aol.com1 vote -
make alerts omnidirectional
Alert users to incidents on both sides of the road when there is no divider on the road. On two lane highways voice alerts for police and accidents are directional. Meaning it only alerts you to reports that were made in the direction you are traveling. It should alert you to all reports on the road regardless of which direction you’re heading. Helpful for police and accidents when they could affect both lanes.

Display current speed and limit when approaching speed camera
Currently speed camera alert covers whole bottom screen and hides current speed and allowed speed.
It would be super useful even just to see allowed speed!

Creating option in settings to 'Allow U-turns when available'
Currently in the UK, the Waze app will not suggest a u-turn when it is legal and available, and instead it will reroute you in big, difficult, time-wasting loops. It usually happens when you make a wrong turn or are in a rural area. A simple U-turn can save lots of time and frustration but Waze suggests 10+ minute detours instead. Very frustrating and something the user should have power over, given that the country (The UK in this case) allows u-turns on its roads except when specifically prohibited.
11 votesHey,
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!

Don't automatically start giving directions
I say where to go, then look at rout and options. But before I can decide the app automatically starts yelling directions loudly (in restaurant it's embarrassing). Google Maps waits untill I press the Start button. Maybe that can be an option setting, I HATE your presumption and being forced!

Show all addresses for contacts or use default
I have multiple addresses for many of my Google contacts, but it seems that only the last address for each contact is synced with Waze. It would be nice if all addresses would be synced, or, if only one can be synced, it would be the one marked as default in Google Contacts, not the last.

More re-routing flexibility
I would love to specify how open i am to re-routing before a journey - i.e. being able to choose ‘reroute automatically - get me there ASAP’ or ‘don’t reroute without confirmation - prefer my route where possible.’
Why: I drive a specific one of two ways out of my city when taking a long journey because while the other road is technically faster if you drive at the speed limit it is also dangerous and has poor surface conditions. This means in reality it is slower and stressful. If I do not manage to cancel the re-routing in time,…

When in an EV, also show the regular Gas stations category in the Search menu
I'm driving an EV, so Waze replaced the Gas stations category in the search menu with "EV charging" on Android Auto. However, many EV charging stations in my country are in the middle of nowhere, or at least don't have a place to grab a quick bite or refreshing drinks like the regular gas stations have. I tried using the "Food" and "Coffee" categories, but they just search for restaurants or coffee places and are not suitable for a quick stop along the way. Also, I can't enter text in the search box while driving and I can't search for…

Enhancing Waze: Traffic Mode vs. Navigation Mode
Problem: When using Waze primarily for traffic and alert monitoring (rather than navigation), essential information like the compass, speed limit, and alert icons doesn’t appear unless a specific destination is set. (I am using ipadOS 17.4)
Suggested Improvement:
Introduce a new option in “Settings: General” called “Default Driving Mode.”
Users can choose between:
Traffic Mode: Starts Waze in full-screen map mode without the “Where to?” prompt. Provides standard map elements and access to submit/receive alerts.
Navigation Mode: Retains the current default map with the persistent “Where to?” prompt.
Consider adding a button on the map display to toggle between Navigation…3 votes -
Correction
In Brazil, using English directions, many highways are designated as "SP-###", which stands for "SãoPaulo". The audio direction is calling out ALL SP highways as "Sulfur mono Phosphide" which is a chemical formula abbreviation S P. Every time an SP hwy is called out, she literally says "sulfur mono phosphide" each time, rather than São Paulo, or simply SP. Needs correction. Very annoying 😑

Famous italian people voice added
We should get famous people like "Gigi D'Agostino" or "Nino D'Angelo" and more famous people, We only got AI voices, and if we want to use the voices ad example of someone viral on tktok Italy we need to pay, or a friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend (50x) needs to share to others friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend (50x) and it's a loop (or if you don't have a Waze friend, then you need to pay) so it will be cool using like conlavocedi.com and ciaoiosonochico.it voices for an example and add into the voice navigation

Red light camera alerts
I have 4 red light cameras on my daily commute. Can there be a way for us to delete these locations so i don't have to hear them everyday? I don't want to silence alerts completely, and that seems to be the only way.

Hello,
My feedback had to do with a general issue; not with a problem or anything too debug.
Please have an option for less spoken directions when they are very long and duplicate in nature.
The Google Map app has such an option.
Once told to take an exit, I don't need to hear again to continue on the road since I just exited. And then I don't need to hear again that I need to go 5.8 miles, and then to proceed on the current route.
A simple warning 1 mile before the exit and then as I approach…

Add multiple saved addresses for quick access
In the home and work tab of the profile page, there is no option to add a saved place other than home or work, such as school, or another home address.
This would prove useful for say quickly navigating to the cabin on weekends without the address getting buried under all of the visited addresses of the past week.
Please add this in upcoming updates as I like using Waze to navigate, but I feel it lacks this simple feature that could make the app more efficient for many.
Thank you in advance
