Suggest the "Major Accident" icon be outlined in red to stand out
Suggest the "Major Accident" icon be outlined in red to stand out. There currently is no differentiation between a minor accident and a major accident. Since a major accident can significantly affect your driving time (avoiding the resulting traffic jam) where a minor accident (fender bender on the side of the road) won't, it is important to differentiate. Suggest a bold red outline on the icon.

My waze needs a sporty mood.
I didn't feel like doing my hair today so a generic hat would be nice. Maybe some eye black to complete my game face.

System constantly reroutes then the server times out & deletes exsiting route
When I set a route the system constantly reroutes almost every quarter to half a mile. At least 50% if not greater I will then get a message that the server timed out. This wouldn't be so bad except that when this happens it deletes the route I'm trying to follow until it tries again and usually then the server returns a route. This makes Waze virtually unusable. Please make it that once Waze has a route that it continues displaying and following that route until it gets new information from the user or server for a new route. Even…

Automatically switch off 'Record new road' feature
As an area manager, it is a headache to keep deleting small segments of road alongside existing roads, caused by GPS inaccuracies where a user has left the 'record new road' feature switched on. I think it would be a good idea to have the client automatically switch off the feature if the user has been travelling on an existing road for a set period of time, for example, 2 minutes.

The target for the "Yes" and "No" buttons needs to be larger.
When you're asking me to confirm where I'm going on a navigation you have the Yes/No buttons far too close to the edge. And when you barely miss the Yes/No buttons it cancels the navigation entirely. I'm not going to be super accurate on my tap locations when I'm operating a vehicle. Make the buttons bigger and/or move them away from the edge of that popup. Otherwise I will get distracted even more when I have to start up the navigation again.

Reduce FPS and disable animations to save battery
Some navigation apps save battery by refreshing less often, except around instructions points (ie. turns, exits, etc.). When the user is supposed to simply follow the road for a long time, the refresh rate could be as low as once every 5 seconds.
Waze could also offer an option to disable transition effects (smooth rotation around current position, streets fade in and out, menu animations, etc.).

Icons Instead Of Text
I suggest that all the reporting options should appear as large icons instead of text. In fact it should take up the whole page. It is much easier to quickly press a regularly used reporting feature than to go through a few steps for the same kind of report.

Distance to drive after a turn
After a turn, it'd be nice if the distance before the next turn is said. something like "turn right and go straight for 5 miles"

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.

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?

Allow update of gas prices to 3 decimals
It is a mistake to assume that all gas prices end in 9/10. Gas in Canada is sold not in dollars, but in cents. For example, gas may be listed at 124.9. Wazers can correctly update it to 1.249. But if that price is 125.0, the closest it can be updated to is 124.9. Another Wazer may see that as incorrect and change it to 125.9 It is not at all uncommon to find gas with prices ending in .4, .5, even .0.
I have witnessed long lineups at competing pumps where one station is charging 3/10 of a cent…2 votes -
Stealthalize radar warning
As in some countries, radar warners are illegal, it would be very useful to stealthalize this function with an own text and turn off the visible warning.
I mean:
voice "radar cam reported" = illegal.
voice "attention, drive carefully" = legal.Sounds weird, but is just the case.

Clean up Navigation route
Make your navigation route easier to see in congested areas by removing all the stuff not on your route. When using navigation, remove alerts, users, and traffic that are not on the identified route. Also, allow for traffic condition to be seen under the navigation route.

using Bluetooth to update GPS devices
I can see waze incident reports in Google maps. Why not use the Bluetooth link already established between some smartphone and GPS devices to update traffic data on the GPS device? My garmin already talks to an app on my android, I'd much rather waze data was picked-up and displayed on the device screen...

I love Waze! Yet a suggestion
It would be wonderful if there was a way when that route picture pops up with traffic or other road blocks to know "where" in the commute it was exactly. Currently, I run through the whole trip to see where the warnings are located. However, if there is a way when you see the written version of the route to touch it to see if that part of the trip is clear or has warnings. Or if you touched on each road a list of where those warnings are popped up with more location detail. I realize you have pop…
