  1. Avoiding Traffic notification

    Can you add a notification sound or announcement letting drivers know when Waze is avoiding traffic or hazards?

    The reason is that sometimes Waze will prompt you to take a route that seems to make no sense, and I'm tempted to say no. If Waze would just say something like "Take the next exit, avoiding traffic," it would be much easier to understand why.

  3. Speeding alert for drivers

    Waze should make a sound to alert the driver when they are speeding.

    Waze already shows you how fast you are currently driving, and it knows everything about the road you are on, so it should be simple to compare your speed to the listed speed of the road.

    Waze has always been about saving time and money for Wazers, and about creating features to attract and keep people on their service. This allows Waze to on-sell quality map data to other businesses, such as Apple. Many other SatNav clients have speeding alerts to save the driver from getting a…

  4. Add Google Maps Settings to Waze Car Play app

    Please add settings to the CarPlay Waze app navigation screen as seen on the Google Maps screen.
    I lost all sound on Waze which Waze support could not resolve.
    Inadvertently I selected Google Maps and used its settings to reinstate the sound on Waze.

  5. Audible Alert for Fixed Speed Cameras

    Every Sat Nav device that I have ever owned HAS an audible (sound) alert to speed cameras. This is because most drivers keep their eyes on the road most of the time, not on their Sat Nav. I have done some basic programming in the past and know that adding a PING (sound) to something that happens in a software program is the EASIEST thing that a developer could possibly do. So, WHY on earth are Waze developers ignoring this important feature, when so many people ask for it? Just flashing up Speed Camera in words…

  6. Chime when time to turn

    I would like to have Waze set to only sound out warnings but also a chime (or distinct noice) when my turn is coming up.
    I seem to miss my exits on country roads, but I don't want the chatter telling me what to do. Just a chime would be enough to make me look at Waze and not miss the exit.

  11. Speedometer alert threshold at 20%

    You have 5,10,15,20 km as threshold and 5%,10%,15%. In many countries, radar detection is set at 20%, so why not add 20% as well? Or even better, a custom number both in km and %

  12. Vamos mudar o waze um pouco

    Boa noite..

    To lutando aqui para poder tentar ajudar voces a melhorar mais e mais o waze. Tipo vamos ver se conseguimos colocar as placas de advertencias no novo waze, colocar nome da rua mesmo sem esta em modo de procura (quando a gente coloca endereço para chegar), poder aparecer mais e mais os radares (na lateral da tela piscar o radar ao chegar um determinado valor acima do mencionado), poder ter um botao rapido como adcionar alertas, poder colocar algum pacote no waze de alertas tipo o do iGO Primo quando colocamos (ex Mapa Radar ou do 7ways)…

  13. Ficou bom a notificação/lembrete

    Ficou muito bom a notificação/lembrete de ligar os faróis quando iniciamos um percurso.

    Mas seria muito importante que além de notificar e dar um pequeno barulho sonoro, esse lembrete de ligar os faróis fosse "falado", assim como vocês falam avisando que tem radar a frente.

    Grato desde Já.

  14. Hidden/visible police alerts

    People report police that are hiding as "visible" because technically they are visible once you are close enough but really the police are doing radar. Maybe instead of "hidden" or "visible" police it could say lights on or lights off. Also when the alert is spoken it just says "police reported ahead." it would be nice if it distinguished which type so you don't have to click the icon to see because that would be distracted driving and unsafe.

  17. Waze bluetooth-Kopplung

    Mich stört an Waze, dass Waze sich im Auto zuerst mit meinem bluetooth Hörgerät verbindet und nicht mit den Auto Lausprechern.
    Um das zu korrigieren muss ich zuerst das winzige bluetooth-Symbol auf dem iPhone treffen, anschließend auf den Knopf Tonausgabe tippen, um dort die Senke auszuwählen. Das ist viel zu umständlich!
    Bitte verbessern!

    I'm dissapointed by Waze that ist couples in my car first with my new hearing aid and not with my cars loudspeakers. Trying to change this, I need to click on a too tiny bluetooth button, then to click on another button for adressing the sound sink…

  19. Add feature to differentiate between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS

    Add feature to differentiate between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS

    John Stephen Rymell john.stephen.rymell@gmail.com
    21:34 (8 minutes ago)
    to Waze-Customer-Support, support

    I would like to ask for the following feature to be added to make things clearer for UK drivers.

    Add an additional notification icon for use in the UK which will allow us to distinguish between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS. UK drivers don't seem to understand that the POLICE icon is for POLICE SPEED TRAPS, and not just for whenever they see a POLICE car, and as they panic every time they see a police car they want…

  20. Make fully customizable alerts

    You guys should make the alerts customizable. For example, I want to get the app to make a sound when I'm approaching a speed camera or something while above the speed limit. Now, if I set the sound as "Alerts" it only makes a sound when there's a speed bump which is useless because there are 6 street signs before every bump! Make a big list of all possible alerts and allow the user to choose what they want to define as alert deserving stuff
