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.[ Monitor fuel usage ]
Things like planning a gas stop could be automated. When the tank gets below a certain…31 votes -
Lost Pet Section
How many times has your heart gone out to a dog lost at an intersection? What if you could help reunite the owner with two clicks of a button?
With Waze Lost Pet section, it is that easy.
Adding to the possible list categories, an option for Lost Pets would allow users to prevent accidents, reunite owners with missing pets, and even impact their local shelters by relieving some of the burden of overpopulation.
Waze is ideal for such concepts due to it's updates in real time and photo capable posting system. Such a concept would mean the difference between…21 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Salve, uso waze su ipad e moltissime volte se si scrive via e non viale il programma ti manda alla cittá più vicino quando sbagliando.
Salve, uso waze su ipad e moltissime volte se si scrive 'via' e non 'viale' il programma ti manda alla cittá più vicino quando invece ho ben specificato anche la cittá...in pratica non c'è una scelta come invece c'e nei navigatori portatili comuni.

Waze always sends me on a route with 2 tolls, I want to limit to 1
Waze always directs me to a route that requires 2 tolls, when for 2 extra minutes I only have 1 toll. It's not worth it to pay a 2nd toll for 2 minutes - and Waze hasn't recognized that I almost never follow its suggested route.

Contact search should include company name. Currently waze looks for Names in my address book; not Company names
Currently if I have an iPhone contact that does not have a First Last ne but has a Company the Waze search engine ignores it

Categorizing Favorites
With my Garmin, I can quickly look at my favorites list relative to my current location. ADVANTAGE: I'm hungry.....it tells me where my favorite restaurants and coffee shops are and how close. Makes it easy to return there when i'm in the area.
UPGRADE: Ability to share your favorites list with a friend, so that they can choose a place and navigate there as well!

Time-based Map Topology
In Washington, DC specifically, and in other cities around the United States (and probably around the world), certain turns are illegal between 7:00-9:30 am or 4:00-6:30 pm. More challenging, Rock Creek Park - a major commuter route that is often utilized by Waze - allows southbound traffic only between 7:00-9:30 am on mon-fri, and northbound traffic only between 4:00-6:30 pm on mon-fri. Waze is unable to factor in these restrictions, and becomes of limited usability during these times. Its really frustrating for me, and my partner. Please, please, please fix this? I'm afraid one of our phones might go flying…

Push notification regarding traffic on your regular routes
I would like to receive push notifications at predefined times, for instance every morning at 8:00, regarding traffic on my usual route to work as I don't turn on waze for driving routes I know at regular times. Waze could notify me of an accident and display the name of the alternative route, that way I don't even have to open the app.

Wazer message notifications (i.e. private messages) need to be more visible to be effective
In the Past few days I've "private messaged" wazers who were ahead of me on a route to find out about traffic conditions or a slow downs. These messages went unanswered. I didn't think anything of it at the time. This morning on the way into work I just happened to go to "My Waze" to view my ranking... and saw that I had a Private Message from another wazer- from 10 days ago - and never knew it. The message was basically the same as what mine had been. -- I told you all that to tell you this:…

Read/Write locations to NFC tags
Android app should be able to write/read NFC tags with locations.
In ideal case user should be able to run Waze and set navigation to specific address in just one NFC-touchIt's better to store universal GPS coordinates, address instead of Waze name so other apps can still use it if they want.

grabar el viaje en el tiempo que uno vaya manejando
la nueva opcion serviria para grabar video de nuestros viajes en coche, muy útil en caso de accidente, como prueba para algun acciedente le pongo un ejemplo de una app que ya existe que hace esto, pero completaria la app de waze con esta opcion mas, ah y que los videos se guardaran en la nube y nos dieran ciertos GB gratis https://itunes.apple.com/mx/app/coche-video-registrador/id592376034?mt=8 espero sus comentarios

Can we please utilise groups that are more than 62 miles away?
Seems a bit pointless in this smaller Internet enabled world that you can only join groups within 62 miles of you?

Accident icon
Accident icon is not easily recognizable in version 3.6 specially while you are driving and only take a glance in the phone's screen. New icon is pretty similar to traffic jam reports. I think it could be redesigned as a overturned car, or adopt the design used in older versions.
