Suggestion to add 'vehicle stopped in lane' in the 'hazard on road' option.
I often encounter vehicles stopped in the lane on the interstate as well as the surface streets. It would be helpful to have an option to report that hazard just as you can report a vehicle stopped on the side of the road. This would definitely help drivers so that they are aware and prepared for that hazard.
138 votesGreat news! The option to report a stalled vehicle is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

2 offers: navigation and user play journey
Hi, my name is Nirit and I have 2 suggestions for you:
Offer 1# - a feature that allows a faster route to the destination
I want to reach my destination, but it is not always important for me to reach exactly the specific number on the specific side of the street.That is, I don't mind walking a few meters and parking on the side opposite the destination, or near the destination further down the street - especially when the other side or a few meters nearby will save me time and allow me a faster route,…

Add address numbers when arrived
Need to add address (number and street) when on final street instead of saying "you have arrived at your destination". Uber and Lyft drivers use waze and need to know address. We look at mail boxes as we drive down the street. Sometimes the x is not in the same location as the address but we can't see the address.
Thank you for your consideration.17 votes -
Mutual location
It will be perfect if we could plan a route, connect on the map with the other driver friends on the road.
Example: 2 buddyes, 2 cars, same destination. By being connected to each other on the map, we could see each others location.5 votes -
Have a genshin imoact character to voice!
Genshin Impact is a well-known game. Most of its player would for sure enjoy their journey by listening to some of their favorite characters guiding them to their destination!

Random route generator
I was thinking, something that would be cool is a random route generator. Punch in your destination and waze will give you random indirect options. Perfect for nice days to take a cruise. Just a thought

Remettre le bouton plus tard
Lorsque l'on regardait un itinéraire d'une destination cherché, il avait un bouton "plus tard" pour voir le temps en fonction du trafic éventuel. Maintenant il faut absolument passé par l'onglet "planifier" et après chercher la destination... C'est vraiment plus long et désagréable. Svp remettre le bouton "plus tard" lorsque l'on regarde une destination.
Merci!

Evacuation zones
I know these currently exist via Champs/Coordinators, this is a suggestion on how these work.
We in NC have had a big issue with DOT not knowing every closed road and considered almost half the state as closed. NC leadership worked with champs and coordinators to get an evacuation zone set up. However, we noticed that routing through this zone was still enabled. Based on this here is 2 suggestions we came up with.
1 - Route Around - This suggestion is to restrict travel from outside the zone to outside the zone through the zone…
25 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Display phone contacts while navigating
Display the phon's contacts on the map while driving. As a sales rep i'm on the road all the time, often driving large distances for 1 or 2 clients, it then would be usefull to see which other contacts/customers are nearby my destination or route.

Allow showing route without starting voice navigation directions
Their time to when you want to see the route and know how long it's going to take without actually starting voice command navigation. I would suggest adding another button in the route dialog box next to the go button or the routes button that just says "Route Only", or have a checkbox there that turns off voice navigation (so when you tap Go it just shows the route and time to destination).

sound icon
The sound icon in the bottom bar is good, but to turn Sound On, you press the left side, but in the Settings you press the right side to turn Sound On. The Sound On should be on the same side so i don't have to try to read the label.

EV filter for fast charging (DC) and filter for slow charging (AC)
Choose to search for fast OR slow chargers exclusively (instead of mixed list currently showing).
Add a restrictive filter that on selection ónly displays Fast chargers (DC) when traveling long distances.
Add a separate restrictive filter showing only slow chargers (AC) for destination charging.
Please make the filter option available for Android auto as well.

Add dedicated buttons for most common things (police, car at side of road), with no defaults in case I accidentally hit. This is one click.
Add dedicated buttons for most common things (police, car at side of road), with no defaults in case I accidentally hit. This is one click.
99% of the time I report either police or car at side of road. Make these dedicated buttons so i don't have to mess with one more level of menu.

Add option to select car pool when navigating
Lets popup "carpool?" button after choosing destination in carpool times. This will help to get corresponding exits and more precise calculations. Sometimes traffic stopped while carpool is open and I dont want to get average estimation and alternative route. Thanks!
5 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Quick Submission Links PLEASE!
I got to think 70%+ of what we report is 'car on side of road' or 'Police (Visible) on side of road'. How about quick submission links on home screen? I would think with just those two buttons the amount of submissions would go up huge! #EveryoneWins :)

I used to be able to provide traffic and hazard data for the "other side." These disappeared in a recent revision. Please restore.
It is really the restoration of a former option - reporting a traffic jam or traffic hazard on the other side of the road.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion!
This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being. Adding more and more options to reporting, especially for less popular types of reports such as other side which will also require another window/card, is not something we are aiming for at the moment. Please be aware that other side reporting is already available by voice using the Google Assistant! We believe investing in voice can create essentially a better and more scalable experience and we hope to bring it to more languages soon.
Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram. -

Zoom level resets after waze shows alerts while stopped
If I'm driving and set my zoom at a certain level and stop, waze shows nearby alerts... great! But when I drive again my zoom level is not what I've set it at. Also, please make the app show the alert on the side of the screen and put the pinpointed alert on the other side while in landscape mode. Sometimes an alert is useless without seeing it and currently the warning covers the map!

Navigate to Intersections
Waze app does not accept intersections as a search destination. This is sometimes the easier choice when I'm picking someone up rather than attempting to find a house number. Please add this functionality.
