    I know neither what is going on to the app nor if it is just in Brazil. The problem is, the app is always seeking for GPS location (even though when both the mobile location is settled in high accuracy and when using supporting apps to improve location accuracy). The problem is generalized in the whole country, just take a look at the comments on google play. The app is losing thousands of active users (Uber drivers) who upload information daily into the app. Everyone has been migrating to Google maps, though we find waze better, we have been forced…

  3. Increase police warning distance

    Waze users are warned of speed traps or police presence only about 600 feet ahead of time. This is far too late of a warning. With a clear line of sight, law enforcement can detect speeders at 1-2 miles out.

    By the time the Waze warning pops up, you could have already been detected.

    This feature – while very well intentioned and thought out – is useless with so little warning.

  4. Include the official identification as an alternate name

    Include the official identification of trade places as an alternative name form so that the user can search and find his destination through this information.

    Example:
    In the USA, the Tax Identification Number (TIN)
    In Brazil, the National Registry of Legal Entities (CNPJ)

    With this we can encourage the use of Waze by users of commerce and logistics, who use this information as standard in the identification of their customers.

    EM PORTUGUÊS:
    Incluir a identificação oficial de locais do comércio como forma de nome alternativo para que o usuário possa pesquisar e encontrar seu destino através desta informação.

    Exemplo:

  5. Remove our tiny street from Waze. Not enough room for 2 cars to pass. (Lake View Avenue, 90039)

    We live on a tiny street in Silverlake, Los Angeles that is technically 2 way, but only fits one car. Waze has increasingly been sending inexperienced drivers here which creates havoc because there are no shoulders or driveways to pull into (no sidewalks either).

    Thanks!

    Please remove Lake View Avenue, 90039. Cross streets are Silver Ridge and India St.

    Thank you!

  7. Longitude and latitude is the most accurate way to find a location and leading you to. It is particular useful if you are out of city.

    Hope Waze could search by longitude and latitude point and show a point by longitude and latitude. This is useful when you are not in city area, for example, hiking in a forest area.

  9. WAZE route option for golf cart path

    I set up a route while on a golf cart path in The Villages, FL amd was given an option to use "golf cart" path. The route worked flawlessly! Is that an option somewhere in WAZE? If so, where is it?

  15. Get rid of Google

    Cuz Waze juzt plain sucks now. I love it when you give alternate routes and I pick one because I sure as hell know this area better than your AI and I also know what happens when the area has an event. Three times, THREE in 10 minutes I have to pick an alternate route today because your app ignores the route I have picked and sends me right into the area which I am trying to avoid. Your app frequently costs me time, costs me money and complete aggregation over the sheer idiocy of this exact issue. This will…

  16. Password Complexity

    I would like to be able to use a more complex password. Currently, only three complexity levels are allowed: A, a, and 0-9. This security level is far too vulnerable given the sensitive information with in the app, eg addresses, phone numbers, etc. Please consider allowing several different character useage like punctuation, special characters, ASCII, ect. The modification should not be too difficult. Instead of defining what is allowed in the string just define the string to accept anything with the exception of min-max number of characters.

  19. Support ODB bluetooth dongles

    Allow the use of an ODB bluetooth dongle to get a number of improvements. These dongles are quite cheap and provide a wealth of extra data. Possible uses:

    [ Better dead reckoning using vehicle speed ]
    Using the actual vehicle speed combined with compass, accelerometer and map matching it should be possible to have accurate positioning in tunnels/urban canyons. TomTom does this and is able to do near-perfect positioning with only one GPS datapoint every 30 minutes.

  20. Integrate with Glympse!

    You offer Foursquare check-in which is great! http://glympse.com/ is a great app that I use often to show people I'm on the way. At any time, they can see where I am and what my ETA is (if destination is set). I see you have MEET UP, which shows current location or destination, but Glympse sends constant updates showing where you are. It's available in Garmin Street Pilot and Navigon now (http://www.glympse.com/partners)!
