  2. Hola, debido a el aumento de precios y que a los conductores les bajaron el pago, toda la comunidad que tenemos contacto en un grupo que usa

    Hola, debido a el aumento de precios y que a los conductores les bajaron el pago, toda la comunidad que tenemos contacto en un grupo que usabamos nos vemos en la necesidad de irnos por nuestra cuenta y desinstalar la app, pues ya no conviene, además de que ya no la recomendaremos, diciendo a las personas que hagamos lo mismo con nuestros conocidos. Sin embargo, si se les paga a los conductores lo justo, conviene más, y hablo como raider, a mi no importa que me cobren 20 o 30 pesos, me conviene, pero a ellos no les conviene. Ojalá…

  3. Bring back "All Reports"

    Please bring back the "All Reports" functionality. This feature existed in the original Waze interface but was removed in the newest iteration (as of October 2015).

    I used the All Reports tab to keep track of nearby accidents, police officers, and hazards before and during every trip. It was the tool I regularly used to get an overview of what my morning and evening commutes would look like, as I travel over 50 miles each way to work.

  5. Make alternative routes tappable directly on the map like GMaps.

    Hoping for tappable alternative routes on the map, which also shows time difference from the suggested route. This was a feature I liked a lot in GMaps.

  6. Allow alternate start point

    For trip planning purposes would like to see preferred rout from A to B, rather than wait until I start the trip. i.e. It's 8 am today on Tues, what rout and calculated times would Waze report for a trip from Baltimore MD to Alexandria Va, when I'm planning the trip while in LA.

  7. Toll Road prompt

    After selecting the destination, Waze should prompt (as his famous brother Tom does) if toll roads should be allowed or not. In this way I could leave the option "Toll Roads" unchecked (it should be also removed) and before each journey I can choose depending on the case which route to follow...

  9. Add more levels too Avoid Highway option

    With the Avoid Highway option off, Waze is way too aggressive in routing to freeways. The the Avoid Highway on, all types of highways are avoided from minor to freeway. There should be additional options to Avoid Freeways, Avoid Major Highways and Freeways.

    Yes, Waze is supposed to figure out the best route based on information without this level of direction, but in fact it does not, at least in some areas. These options would allow some user input based on experience in directing the routing.

    This would be especially useful for trips that include multiple type of environments such…

  10. International Land Border Wait Time Predictions

    Dear Waze Team,

    I would like to suggest a feature enhancement that could significantly improve the accuracy of ETA predictions for routes involving international land borders, such as those between the USA and Canada or the USA and Mexico.

    Current Situation:
    At present, it appears that Waze calculates ETA for routes involving international land borders based on general traffic data. This approach treats the border crossing as a regular segment of the journey, comparing travel times between points A and B without considering the unique delays associated with border crossings.

    Proposed Enhancement:
    To provide more accurate ETAs and better routing…

  11. Show unpaved roads differently in-app

    In the app, unpaved/dirt roads appear identical to other segments of the same type. It may be helpful for users to tell when a segment of street is unpaved, while navigating. Maybe the segment could be 'speckled' or 'hashed'.

  12. Add Rest Areas to Categories

    Show rest areas and allow users set notifications for distances between rest areas or services (fuel, restrooms, food.) Driver fatigue is a significant contributor to vehicle accidents and some highways have few services or rest areas.

    Hey,   


    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2023 and this idea won't be implemented this year. We hope to have it included in our plans for later years and will keep you posted. Thanks!

  14. Route stops editing

    The existing ability to “add stop” is great but, if this is done in error, there is no way to edit the list of stops or re-arrange the list without cancelling the drive and re-doing it. Which in affect, messes with the drive history which I use to log my business mileage.

    Please add the ability to edit your drive and stops: add a stop, edit a stop, rearrange stops, delete a stop.

    Thanks

  16. Waze - Plan my day route scheduling

    A great addition to the Waze App would be to have it plan my entire day or something as simple as errands. Start by entering a start time and a list of addresses to visit (e.g. drop-off kids, grocery store, and other errands....getting me back home in time to pick-up the kids at school at the end of the school day), Waze could optimize my route and schedule based on traffic and ETA. It might even choose the most effective route by reordering the destinations/waypoints. Other applications are for small businesses to do route planning to save time and fuel.…

  18. max parking height

    At work we can choose between a VW Caddy (height 1,89m) and a BMW 316 (lower :P ).
    Today only the BMW was available, so we took that one.
    At Brussels I drove into a parking, close to our destination thanks to waze.
    The parking is very low, the max. height is 1,75m. Luckily we were there with the bmw and not the Caddy.
    It would be a nice feature if the max. height would be announced of parking space.

  19. Add route style 'safe and simple' & 'eco-drive'

    Selecting 'safe and simple' route will navigate you with safe wide roads without to many small cuves and turns. It might nog be the fastest of shortest but will avoid danger. Selecting 'eco-drive' caculates the most environmental friendly route and minimizes fuel consumption and pollution, just add you car and engine type in the settings menu and Waze will calculate your eco-ride.
