  1. Car Play Apple Maps, Google Maps, Waze Turn By Turn Dirrections Appearing On Instrument Cluster

    Please allow users to enable and disable turn-by-turn directions in the instrument cluster. I don’t want to see it on my instrument cluster when I already have it on my navigation screen. Turn-by-turn directions on the instrument cluster were only available before on Apple Maps, recently Google Maps added it without any mention in the app update notes and no option in the settings to turn it off. I’m glad it’s not yet available on Waze because users can not turn off this feature in vehicle settings CarPlay settings, phone settings not even steering wheel settings! The only way to…

  2. Always choose WME items over Google Map items

    A place (area or point or residential) or House number entered into Waze Map Editor should ALWYS be chosen over a Google Maps import in Waze’s Search.

    This is very frustrating to users since they are often routed to the wrong location. It is also very frustrating to editors since their work to update the map is ignored.

    If a person searches 123 Main St, City, State, then their search should show the 123 Main St, City, State (From WME) as the first item and not 123 Main Street, City State from Google Maps.  (With 133 Main Street, City, State

  3. Create an alert for animals (Deer) as a road hazard

    I have a Waze user in my area that is good about reporting animals (specifically Deer) on or near the roadway. I understand Waze disabled this feature for unknown reasons, I wish Waze would bring this feature back.

  4. Disposition du bouton d'alerte vocale

    Le bouton pour alerte vocale se trouve en bas à droite de l'écran.
    Les voitures actuelles ont des tablettes d'info divertissement de plus en plus grandes et lorsque waze est affiché le bouton d'alerte vocale est très éloigné et du champ de vision et des mains, pour intervention ( véhicules conduite à gauche )...
    Il serait plus judicieux de le situer à gauche à la place ou en dessus l'info de kilométrage des itinéraires programmés...
    Qu'en pensez vous ?

  6. Horse

    I’d like an option to identify preferred routes based on vehicle size/towing. Some routes are quicker for a car as they can navigate bends and turns quickly however when driving with a horse float on or a large SUV with a caravan these routes are not conducive and slow others down.

  7. Waze saying in 1,000 ft of when to turn

    What happened when waze say in 1,000 ft of when to turn instead all I hear every time is in 0.2 or 0.1 miles turn left or right onto this or that road I like it when it says in 1,000 ft because it gives people a heads up of when to turn so that way they don’t past their turn by mistake I like the idea of in 0.2 or 0.1 miles part but I prefer the in 1,000 ft one

  8. Adding prohibited signs

    Is it possible to add prohibited signs like no left turn no u turn or right turn no left turn/u turn signs so people would know where to turn and stuff so that way they’re not lost and confused and that includes durning specific times like 7am-4pm Monday through Friday for example at an intersection that does not allow it on the map display wether it’s on your smartphone or in your car infotainment system because a lot of new cars these days have wireless apple carplay and android auto and I would like it if it alerted you ahead…

  9. Alerting of when a broken traffic light

    I want waze to alert wazers of when a broken traffic light is coming up so that way people know when to stop when the traffic lights are out so it can cut down on close calls just like what it does to when there’s a car on the shoulder for example

  10. Keep Navigation Active After Arrival

    I would like to suggest a feature that allows users to keep navigation active even after reaching the destination. In many situations, especially when it is difficult to find parking, drivers need to circle the surrounding area. When Waze automatically ends navigation upon arrival, it becomes harder to maintain orientation and understand nearby traffic conditions. Allowing navigation to remain active until the user chooses to stop it would provide better spatial awareness, improve safety, and offer a more flexible experience in real-world scenarios.

  12. Let users change the colour of the arrow and route line

    Blue is too hard to distinguish, especially in dark mode when driving at night. This would also help those that are colour blind.

    I am aware that one can choose a different icon but I prefer the arrow style as it takes less time to figure out which direction I am facing.

  13. add new alert

    Hello,
    I have two feature requests that would significantly improve the user experience:
    1. Please add a notification when the GPS signal is lost.
    In the current version, the app can lose GPS without warning, which causes confusion during navigation.
    2. Please add the ability to select the starting point directly from the map.
    This is very useful when planning a route from a different location or checking a route for someone else.

    Thank you for considering these improvements.

    Best regards.

  14. auto reroute

    Hi Ella and colleagues, I have a waze suggestion. Please ask the Waze engineer to please add an option in the Settings of the App for the end-user: please let me explain first. Waze no longer is asking for re-routing permission - Waze now just dynamically (automatically) re-routes now in the middle of navigating. And I understand why, this is because to minimize distraction. Please ask the Waze developer-engineer to please add an option inside the SETTINGS of the APP to allow the end-user to either: ALLOW automatic (dynamic) re-routing or ALERT user prior to dynamic (automatic) re-routing or to…

  17. Allow negative speed offset (reduce the speed warning threshold)

    It It would be really helpful if Waze allowed us to adjust the speed offset in both directions — not only to add km/h, but also to subtract.

    In my case, my car’s speedometer consistently shows 5 km/h faster than the real speed shown in Waze/GPS. I tested this many times and it’s always the same difference.

    Because of this, I’d like to set the speed alert to something like:

    ✅ “Warn me when I’m less than 5 km/h below the speed limit”
    (or essentially: allow a -5 km/h offset)

    Right now, Waze only allows adding extra km/h above the…

  18. Adding Fisheries, water police, and marine parks for greater crime detterence.

    If fisheries (as they are called in Australia), water police, and marine parks were added as an alert option, many illegal activities could be prevented. Especially in places such as Australia with fragile ecosystems, overfishing could be prevented by knowing that fisheries, water police or marine parks are active and that people should only take what they need. These alerts could be added like police alerts, at boat ramps or on the water for each respective branch of enforcement to keep out marine wildlife safe.

  19. New reporting features

    New features to consider:

    • police booze bus (Australian feature)

    • object on other side of road
    • bush fire
    • police monitoring camera (Australian feature)
    • incorrect sign post

  20. Do not dim navigation on opening audio. Make track skip buttons bigger. Allow nav controls to be adjustable on nav Screen

    Allow users to customise their nav screen so they can position and size the features they need.

    Most importly, just because I want my audio player open with bigger track skip buttons and current track listing DO NOT DIM THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE MAP SCREEN! I’m still navigating, why make it dark and hard to see because I want to see what I’m listening to?!

    your UI choices make impede some useful functionality. Let users choose what nav information they need, where on the screen it is and how large it is. Maybe I need a larger speedo and bigger…
