Give us back familiar voices.
Many people have expressed their disappointment and frustration that the voices in Waze have been changed with claims that the new voices are more "natural". On the contrary, many of us feel the voices are cold and we want the former versions back. We use the Italian Sofia and the new voice has no warmth or connection for us. Many other users have said the same of the English Thomas and Kate and other voices from varying languages. Please return our familiar navigators! The world is alienating enough without these changes!

Suggestions to Improve Waze User Experience
Dear Waze Team,
My name is Fabio Martinez Coello, and I am a Colombian user who relies on your application on a daily basis. I would like to thank you for the great service you provide, which has become an essential tool for navigation.
Based on my daily experience, I would like to share some suggestions that could help improve the application and make it even more user-friendly:
1. Always display the programmed destination address:
It would be very helpful if the selected destination address remains constantly visible. Sometimes, due to typing errors or…1 vote -
Very irritating problem
I am using an iPhone 14. Waze constantly starts itself without me opening the app. This interrupts meetings phone calls video I’m trying to take and my sleep!
Can someone please tell me how I can prevent this from happening otherwise I will have to delete the app. I have used Waze for years and never had this happen before.1 vote -

Option to remove quick access on sound/mute from map display
Please give us the option to remove quick access sound button from the map display. I prefer a clean map without all the unnecessary button on the display. The settings button is fine, should be allowed to remove everything else on the display. I never use sound navigation, it is a distraction otherwise.

Add Ideastream Public Media back to Waze
Ideastream Public Media app was available to be played through Waze up until about 3 weeks ago. Now it's gone. Please bring it back.

fuel prices by payment method (cash vs credit)
In Israel, many fuel stations have different prices depending on the payment method (cash vs credit card).
Currently, Waze allows entering only one fuel price per station, which often leads to misleading or incorrect information for drivers.
Please add support to enter (and search) separate fuel prices by payment method
This would significantly improve price accuracy and user trust, especially in regions where payment-based pricing is common.3 votes -

Hazard Alert - Animal on Road
Could there please be some sort of function within Waze that could give the user the opportunity to report deceased animals along the road so that the competent entities could come and collect them? Or even for pets that were just run down for a vet to come or something? Could it be connected to automatically give the competent entities the location of the animal? It’s a win-win for everyone and it keeps our road safe. Also, for objects on the road, while I’m not sure what entity would be responsible for removing them, somehow also connect to the responsible…

Suggestions being commented on
I've been scrolling though the most recent suggestions, and it seems like there's no response from anyone unless it's an admin saying "This is not a suggestion", can we at least get a "seen" mark or something so if our ideas are being ignored we'll at least know?
I'm not asking for a personalized comments telling the sweet mom the intricacy's of IP licensing and why we can't get cookie monster permanently, and I know you can't respond in a way that's going to satisfy every person. But just leaving them in ignorance to something that's never going to happen…

Option to Disable Auto-Rerouting After Route Is Set
Hello,
I’d like to suggest a feature that allows users to disable automatic rerouting after setting a route.
As a driver, it’s not always possible (or safe) to constantly check the device to notice when Waze changes the route and tap “No thanks” in time to stay on the original path.There are countries where you must follow a specific route due to legal or financial reasons — for example, vignette zones, road restrictions, or toll obligations. When Waze changes the route automatically, it can cause problems such as fines, invalid route logs, or entering roads not suitable for the…

Bring back the old speedometer position (bottom left corner)
With the latest update, the speedometer on the mobile app has moved from the bottom left corner to the center of the bottom edge of the screen. This new position is distracting and interferes with map visibility, especially when checking upcoming turns or traffic info.
The previous placement in the bottom left corner was much more intuitive and out of the way. Please consider giving users the option to choose the speedometer position, or revert it back to where it was.

WayPoints
While driving down the road, I should be able to press my cat icon and set a waypoint or point of interest using current location. This allows me to save points of interests for future trips. This would be very helpful

Feature Suggestion: Truck & Travel Trailer Routing Mode
Hi Waze team! It would be incredibly helpful to add a dedicated routing option for trucks towing travel trailers. This feature could generate safe routes that account for:
- 🚫 Avoiding sharp or narrow right turns
- 🚧 Identifying height restrictions and bridge clearances
- 🛑 Bypassing roads with trailer or truck limitations
This would go a long way in improving safety and convenience for recreational drivers and towing vehicles. Thanks for considering!13 votes -

Temporary Route Avoidance Settings (Per-Trip Only Option)
Suggestion:
I’d like to suggest adding the ability to apply route avoidance settings (such as avoiding highways, tolls, or ferries) for a single trip only, rather than changing global navigation preferences.
Currently, when a user enables options like “avoid highways,” the setting remains active for all future routes until it is manually turned off. This can lead to confusion or unintended routing on subsequent trips if the user forgets to revert the setting.
A more flexible approach would be to allow users to select avoidance options specifically for the current trip during route setup. Once the trip is complete, the…

Allow "Map Problem" UR reporting using the 'Talk to report' feature to assist user to leave a UR while driving.
Currently the 'Talk to report' feature allows for reporting road hazards but does not allow for reporting 'Map Problems' such as 'incorrect speed limit' or 'no u-turn allowed.'
As a volunteer map editor, if I could tap the report button and say, "Drop UR here for ... " to open a UR with the UR type listed as 'Voice report' and the UR comment pre-filled with the voice to text input from the report, then I would be able to fix 90% more of the map problems that I notice while driving every day.11 votes
