Option to save clicking, that is, first clicking on danger and then instead of clicking on the road or on the curb or something else, give the option to drive on the road or drive on the curb or something else. At the moment it is also confusing that the vehicle is marked in red like the other warnings. On another topic, maybe in the menu you can insert a section for determining travel places in advance, for example I fly to the Netherlands, in the folder I mark places that instead of writing them or looking for them, I…

Enregistrer nos favorites sur depuis nos ordinateurs de bureau sur votre site web
Lorsque je suis au volant, je dois m'arrêter si je souhaite rajouter une adresse à mes favoris alors que je devrais pouvoir le faire sur votre site site par le biais de mon ordinateur de bureau depuis mon domicile. Je pourrais ainsi le faire en toute quiétude & sans danger.
Cela me permettrait également d'enregistrer toutes les adresses utiles avant d'envisager un long voyage avec des destinations multiples.2 votes -
Feature Request Feedback
Many of the feature requests have many votes, or multiple postings for the same feature requests. It appears that people really do want some things very much. However, the feature request for some items seems to be un-monitored.
There are a number of issues, which would normally be easily resolved with some minor programming tweaks that never seem to be addressed, either in the responses, or the program revisions.
Example: Favorites sorting - the same general feature request has been posted multiple times with post dates going back to 2010.
It would be helpful to have some feedback to…3 votes -
Show open/close state of a venue when selecting it from favorites or history
When a user searches for a new venue and then selects it from search results, Waze shows a warning based on open hours of the venue, whether it's closed, will be closed soon, or will be opened soon. But if the search results show the same venue stored in history, the user doesn't get a warning about open/close state of the venue.
Please show open/close state of a venue also when it's selected from favorites or history.

user needs
It seems to me it would be useful (and a good use of Google's AI) to be able to state my "Need" to Waze and have it solve it for me. For example, I would love to be able to say:
1) Me: "Waze, I'm hungry":
2) Waze: "Of the 3 restaurants on your favorites list, I see the most convenient one is along your route in 6 miles, or, further along your route is Restaurant #2. Does one of those sound good ?This would be much more convenient than trying to yell at Siri to find the…

App Improvement
May I suggest to Waze that they:
1) allow people to submit photos of the area in app. Photo submission would clear up problems of trying to write out what you can clearly see as a problem.
2) make it easier for people to know what to click to report errors (I had a hard time finding the report issue one. The first few times, I marked the road as closed but then it would reappear until I finally found this reporting issue)
3) expand the days to resolve an issue with Waze from 8 to perhaps 14 days to…1 vote -
This-trip-only Navigation Preferences or Warning When Any "Avoid" Option is On
Occasionally a given trip requires selecting "Avoid" options within Navigation Preferences. However, it's easy to forget those options were set, resulting in a convoluted and potentially time-consuming routing the next time Waze is used for a different destination. Suggestion is to provide an upfront Navigation Preferences option for "this trip only" when setting up the trip or when a trip is selected from favorites. An alternate approach to this issue is that whenever a future trip is defined, via favorites, new trip or past trip, the user is alerted if any Navigation "Avoid" settings are ON.

Subject: Suggestion for Faster Incident Reporting on the Main Map
Hello,
I would like to submit a suggestion regarding the usability and safety of the Waze app.
I believe it would be very useful if, on the main map screen while following a chosen route, users could configure, for example, their 3 favorite incident reports. These could be displayed vertically, from top to bottom, next to the speedometer icon.
For example:
Mobile Police
Car on shoulder
Right lane blocked
This feature would allow drivers to mark relevant incidents more quickly and safely. Currently, the list of options is quite long,…1 vote -

Adding addresses needs to be user friendly
When adding an address to "Favorites" it's almost impossible. Once you type in the address, there is not "Add" button only "Back and "Close". I tried to follow the instructions it says to touch to add and I add the address and nothing happens. Impossible to add "Home" or "Work". Frustrated.

Have a “favorites” section to store names with their addresses so we don’t have to look up the address every time. .
Have a “favorites” section where we can store names with their address to keep from having to add the address every time. I like using Waze even if I know where I’m going because my way may not be the fastest way that day.

Put it back to the way you had it I lost all my favorites you change the whole thing I liked it the way it was before
My idea is put the app back the way you had it with everything separated my favorites the stars the flags you screwed up my whole app. I liked it the way it was. It was easier to use cause all I had to do was going to my favorites and find the one that I needed now I have to go through everything to find the one that I want half of them are missing.

RANDOM DISCONNECTS: Random disconnects that report the phone is no longer connected when it is connected. I use a Samsung S20FE. Disconnecting and reconnecting the high-quality USB cable does not help. To isolate whether the issue is the cable, I've tried multiple cables. They all have the same random disconnect issue.
SCREEN DISPLAY: I've also run into something when the connection is working and I'm using Waze (my favorite GPS app). When I use the right turn signal the screen switches from the GPS display to the side camera, as it should. But when the turn…

Link address from other apps
Most functional Waze yet! Navigation seems spot on and not obtrusive like Google's offering. Main thing is Waze is really accurate! Google Maps loses its way and gets me lost! Like the fresh look of Waze. Loads really fast on Note 4 Marshmallow. Love the send ETA so people I choose can monitor my drive in real time!
Few wish list items and believe me, not trying to turn Waze into Google Maps! So just the essentials..
Could use lane assist.
Need to get links from Yelp, Google Now, and other websites to share the actual destination not unknown street…

i would prefer not to have the list accumulating every place i've been. if i could just go straight to favorites from the map that would be great

Get rid of new hamburger menu icon, put functionality back into search screen
New hamburger menu icon doesn't need to be there. Takes up too much space for rarely used functionality. Put settings and stuff back into the search screen. The idea to move that into a totally new icon was bad.
Want to add something useful to the map?
Add a "favorites" icon where when it opens we can have one-tap reporting for report features I use the most- cops, roadkill, traffic - instead of digging around in the reporting screen.
Also, should be able to EXIT waze by swiping from the right edge a couple times.

Important ideas
I’ve been using Waze for several years now and do a lot of miles with it. There are a few things that could be added to make it even better. First, I would love to see Jeremy Clarkson as a Waze voice, that would be hilarious and highly popular. Second, I know that Uber drivers’ satnav can tell them when the traffic lights are about to change. Having this feature on Waze would be great as nothing else would have it. Third, I am also a delivery driver and am forced to use google maps for navigation as Waze does…
