Automatically sleep Waze when disconnecting from CarPlay
Hi, can an option be added to automatically put Waze to sleep after unplugging it from CarPlay? I don't need Waze to remain active once I've reached my destination, and when I get back into my car I usually start it manually myself.

Speed limit and gps speed widgets
Would be very helpful to be able to increase the size of the widgets and select where the display them. I only have a 7 inch screen and cannot see them. Widgets should be on driver's side not passenger side.

Gas station stops by fuel range
Ability to enter fuel range of your vehicle to automatically suggest stops on long trips. When driving long distances, I have to make the destination a gas station that is *** miles away, then change my destination at that stop to the next gas station, then finally add my final destination at the last gas stop. Would be nice to enter a final destination and then a fuel range of 350 miles and suggest as many stops are needed.

Enhance address with GPS Coordinates
Sometimes the destination is a small part of a larger address. It would be great to be able to pinpoint the exact location. For example, the campus where I work has a single mailing address; however there are more than one way to get to campus. If I use the mailing address, the destination ends up being on the wrong side of the campus. Most of the time I'm routed to get to a location I'm not intending to go to.
Operational behavior:
Enter mailing/street address. Be able to open a map view of the target location. Ability to edit…3 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

New option to “add next” addition to “add stop”
Today, we can add a stop before the final destination. Why not all so an option to add a next destination after we arrive at the first destination?

Copilot feature
I have a suggestion that I think would be excellent and differentiating from other applications. This is a functionality that could be called "Copilot", and that allows a device with a Waze account to establish a new destination to a different device. For example, I have Waze on my device while I'm driving, and my wife can set a new destination for me from her own device without having to touch mine, for that reason I thought the function could be called "Copilot".
This same functionality would also be very useful when navigating with CarPlay, so that I can continue…

Enhancements: Allow customization of favorites
At present, as you add a new favorite destination to the list, it is listed at the bottom of the list. It would be helpful to be able to create custom tabs within the favorites so that we could provide some organization to our favorites!

For dyslexics and/or directionally challenged individuals, please have an option instead of turn left, turn toward driver's side.

Tourist safety suggestion - prompts re staying on the correct side of road
When tourists travel to a country where they have to drive on a different side of the road it can be potentially dangerous. I am in New Zealand where we drive on the left. Accidents are often caused when tourists mistakenly drift onto the right as they are on auto-pilot, and cause a head-on collision.
Most of the rental car companies put a "keep left" sticker on the inside of the windscreen to remind drivers but I don't think this enough. My idea is that Waze would create a special "tourist" version of the audio guide that would include…

Live Map on web site
Your website used to be so easy to use. Now I have to find Live Map on the right hand side.
Then I must enter to destination address first. This doesn't even make sense?
When I enter the from address it finds addresses in other countries no where near my destination address. It didn't used to be like this. So I end up typing in the full address.
Really whoever is coming up with your new web site ideas should be fired.

Send a text message when delayed and/or shortly before arriving
Waze can send twitter-messages, but with the new APIs in iOS4 it could send textmessages (SMS) as well. When entering a destination for routing, one could also select a mobile phonenumber (of the person we are driving to) so that significant delays are reported automatically to this person. Also, waze could send a SMS some minutes before arriving at the destination. This comes really handy when you want to pick someone up!
When I say "automatically" - I mean that Waze pops up a dialog that you only have to confirm.

UK:LON - When driving at night waze should have a feature to avoid side road as traffic levels tend to be low.
UK:LON - When driving at night waze should have a feature to avoid side road as traffic levels tend to be low. Therefore, when waze is suggesting side roads at night the journey time tends to longer plus London side roads have too many speed pumbs, which is not good for a driver’s back.

Routing server timeouts - retry in the background
Sometimes everyone of us experiences routing server timeouts with an Oops/OK prompt. Then one needs to reclick the destination while driving, which is disturbing. Perhaps the client could have an option to retry a couple of times in the background, and then notify if all retries failed?

when is rush hour?
when I choose a destination, It would be wonderful if Waze would tell me when is rush hour on that route (based on past data) so I can plan ahead.
