  2. Police Heat Map

    What about a feature that shows popular police trap locations. There are locations in my town that are popular with police to setup speed traps. If those areas could glow blue like traffic areas glow red, I think that could be a great feature. If you could use the information that wazers report, then that info could be processed through an algorithm that show the high probability areas.

  3. Automatically open keyboard after passenger confirmation

    At least on the Android client, after hitting the passenger confirmation button, the keyboard does not automatically pop up. The user must press in the blank a second time. Please program the keyboard to open immediately after pressing "passenger".

  4. Improve the Waze iPhone API

    Improve the Waze iPhone API. Currently only the features are available using he waze:// api:
    http://www.waze.com/dev/documentation/

    The new google maps app has much much more capability:
    https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios/urlscheme

    I would love to be able to create a one tap navigate using waze link to all of my contacts in my address book. I can't do this currently because only queries are possible, plus the queries can't default to a specific search, further you can't navigate to a long/lat. for address which aren't known to waze... These would be very helpful!

  5. Add a service that will put pings/icons on the maps to show yard sales and allow these maps accessible on all platforms not just devices.

    Add a service that will put pings/icons on the maps to show yard sales and allow these maps accessible on all platforms not just devices. You could also expand this to all local community events, school functions for charity like carwashes etc. As far as I know there is nothing currently available for live updates of yardsales and things of that nature. As a mother in a small community that has no need for any apps currently available, this is one I would pay for. Even in this small community, with my gps, I have trouble finding yard sales.

    Hi,

    I'd just like to offer some feedback I think would get a lot more people using the app from Google Maps.

    When using Google maps and you say "Navigate Home" or press navigate (mainly when in the Uber app, just as an example) it opens the Google Maps app, calculates the directions and then just goes. You don't have to take your eyes off the road to press go.
    When using Waze you have to wait for the app to open, calculate directions and then press go. (Why press go? If it's something I can't think of then maybe…

  12. Pronunciation of close

    Can you change the pronunciation of close from Klos which is duff, and we are moving to a street name ending in close and it will drive me nuts :)

  13. Prevent Waze from sending drivers on roads with no cell coverage.

    Waze sent us onto a snowy mountain road with a 20 car pileup blocking it. There were very dangerous conditions on this road. Wazers were unable to connect to the network because there was no cell coverage on the road. In those cases where there is no cell coverage Waze should somehow check with emergency services.

  14. Favela maps in Brazil

    Favelas, in Brazil, should be mapped in Waze and users alerted everytime that a proposed traject would enter in one. From a quick search in local
    Social Media, you can find history about assaults, robbery, thefts and even murders of waze users that inadvertently followed waze in the middle of a Favela.
    Some police offices in Brazil already calls it "the waze victims". And, I'm hearing more and more people complaining about this issue. Yesterday, I almost entered in a Favela following Waze instructions and I can understand what people was talking about...

    Hope this can help to save lifes.

  18. Permanently save the metric vs imperial units

    After every app update, the units in my Waze client get reset to imperial/miles. I'm in Canada and we use metric. I have to change the setting every time!

  19. Allow a start/stop feature for hazzards/lane restrictions, traffic jams, etc.

    When traveling through a construction area allow a start/stop point so others can choose atl. routes. This can also be for speed reductions, accident sites, etc.
