Zoom
Whenever I click the find alternative routes button. It constantly zooms me out every single time. This is so annoying I have to constantly click the plus button. Every time that I want to check if there’s a different route thats quicker.

Add favorites to a route
When I go on long trips, I enjoy stopping at rest areas, but I have no clue where they are or when they'll appear. I've ended up at a sketchy gas station, only to discover a rest area just 2 miles ahead. I also like pulling over at specific restaurant chains, but again, I don't know their locations. It would be awesome to add favorites to a route so the app tracks the distance to the nearest Chick-fil-A or Buc-ee's, then resets after you pass it to show the next one. This feature would be a game-changer.

Hi team you guys doing great job. Is there any chance you separate the speedometer and speed limit
Hi team you guys doing great job. Is there any chance you separate the speedometer and speed limit option
I believe most of the users don't want speedometer sometimes we miss the speed limit sign so it's better to have just speed limit option separate2 votes -
zone de danger radar france
Fixed danger zones are not displayed when navigation is not activated, unlike the Coyote or tomtom application where the zones are signaled until the end. "you enter a danger zone" and this disappears instantly before even passing a fixed radar. Waze must keep the alert throughout the area, even if the route navigation is not activated ( FRANCE )

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…

Allow users to choose to display routes on their Phone instead forcing on the Android Auto
Allow users to choose whether to use their phone as Waze for routes or Android Auto as the main display, instead of forcing it to display on Android Auto. Some people want to stream music using Android Auto and use their phones to see directions, as it doesn't distract them from the road. Some head units in cars are positioned lower from the direction of the road and are more of a hassle to look at while driving.

Adjust the location of alerts
In Android Auto, whenever an alert appears, it hides the search buttons, alternative routes, sound, and especially the button to create an alert. This means you have to close the alert to access the create alert button. This wastes time creating the alert and makes it unsafe, as this additional step distracts the driver.
One suggestion is to have alerts appear below the traffic directions without pushing the interface to the right.

Add support for government emergency alerts (cell broadcast integration) to notify drivers entering affected areas
As a Waze volunteer editor, I’d like to suggest integrating a feature that uses official cell broadcast emergency alerts sent by governments or national agencies (such as AMBER Alerts, severe weather warnings, or public safety alerts).
The idea is simple: when a Waze user drives into an area where a cell broadcast alert was recently sent, the app could display a notification or short message about it — even if that driver didn’t originally receive the alert on their phone because they were outside the area at the time.
This feature could be extremely valuable in real-life situations, such as:…

“See your friends on the road — drive together, even when apart.”
Idea:
Add a new feature in Waze that lets users add friends and see each other’s live location directly on the Waze map — similar to Snapchat’s Snap Map or a GTA V online lobby.
How it works:
Users can add friends through usernames, phone numbers, or QR codes.
Once connected, you can see your friends’ cars moving live on the map while they’re driving with Waze.
You can tap a friend’s icon to get ETA to their location or message them (“on my way”, “meet here”, etc.).
Privacy controls let users choose who can see them (e.g. “Visible to…2 votes -

MINION VOICE
Hi. I’m Jay from Malaysia, would like to request to BRING BACKKKKK the Minion voices for navigation. The moment it’s been taken down, I don’t feel like using WAZE or going on the long travel anymore😭 I want them them, Minion voices is not just a voice, it turned the journey stress free. Using it since a year i can understand Minion language already. Now it changes to some other boring voices. I dont feel like driving, no energy, feel stress during the traffic😭
I hope you’ll reconsider bringing back the MINION VOICE PLSSSSSS😭😭😭😭😭

satellite roads
I do understand the possible changes behind the scenes of the app but i honestly believe satellite roads is safer and more efficient for drivers as it provides a clearer view of the roads being driven on and not confusing drivers as it is confusing with cartoonish roads that nearly blend in together making it hard to understand which roads to take especially on highways. I have personally experienced not only myself but also seen other users of Waze experience missing exits and nearly and actually getting on to wrong exits because of the confusing “cartoonish” Waze maps. These situations…
