Toggle current road to current town
There are many times as I drive through different states, that I want to know what town I’m currently in. Copilot, another GPS program, allows you to tap on the arrow (your location) and the display would toggle between current road and current town. This is especially useful when notifying a friend your location, or looking for a hotel/food.

Improve Road Directions on Android Auto
The road signs show the exit numbers in the green aesthetic boxes but it's hard to see on android auto as it's small and negligible, hindering driving.

New road segment for yields
Currently the routing algorithm assigns a penalty where ever a junction is located in the editor. I believe no penalty should be assigned to a junction with a connecting yield segment, as traffic typically isn't slowed down at these junctions. I believe that creating a new yield road type segment would improve routing accuracy. I've seen many URs that could have been prevented if such a segment already existed. A junction with signal lights should not be treated the same as a junction with a yield.

Route Alerts
The shortened route alert should have user specified times. I do not care about saving 3 minutes on a 6 hour drive. There should also be a limited number of times Waze asks for this route. My last trip I ended up just letting Waze reroute me onto a toll road costing money because it wouldn't shut up about the 10 minutes I would save on my 3 hour trip.
There should also be a user settable feature where you can select how much you are willing to pay to save money. If an alternate route is faster but a …

Ignore Traffic Option for Real Time Road Closures
For Real Time Road Closures, please add the option to "Ignore segment traffic". Currently if there is any traffic detected on a Closed segment, the Closure will be put into Suspend mode. This can be problematic since some Waze users choose to ignore a closure, because they can't "see" any backed up traffic due to the closure, and will cause the closure to be paused until enough traffic has been stopped behind the closure and the segment detects no more movement. By then the closure should have been in place warning Waze users well ahead of time to find an…

Current road conditions ( 511 integration)
The State of Minnesota has an app called 511 (website is https://511mn.org/ ) that gives users current road conditions. It would be nice to have those show up on the maps... Especially because I have a long commute and it would be super helpful to see if the roads are bad after a snow storm .

On some roads the application announces "N" or "S" or "E" or "W" instead of North, South, East and West. As an example: "Take NJ Turnpike N Cars Only towards ...."

Show cost of travel (toll + fuel + maybe parking values).
When choosing a destination and between different paths, toll routes could have the cost of those tolls.
As an additional feature it could calculate fuel cost (having the car/engine information, average speed and total distance).1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze calculates and displays toll prices in many parts of the world. To know when this becomes available in your country, stay tuned on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

Highlight Slow Traffic by Changing Road Colors
Currently, when there is traffic congestion ahead, Waze does not clearly change the road color on the map. Sometimes it only shows thin orange borders, which is not enough for the driver to quickly recognize the slowdown.
It would be much more effective if, whenever there is congestion or slow traffic, the road itself changed color (instead of remaining purple). This would make it easier for drivers to anticipate and react to traffic conditions without relying only on borders or icons.

Waze/ Carplay crashes at toll booths in Spain and France
Had Mercedes C300 rental car 2025, driving through Basque country in NE Spain and SW France. Ever since time I passed through a toll booth carplay and waze would crash and it would take some playing around to restart. Does anyone else encounter this issue? Major safety issue getting the app and carplay restarted. I think there may be a frequency from toll booths that disrupts the wireless carplay

Capture Entry/Exit Locations On Tool Roads - California Visitors
When visiting California from out of state, toll roads come into play. Most often they are the most direct route. But the challenge is knowing when and where you have actually entered and exited them. So when you visit TheTollRoads.com to pay your toll, you need to know the date, time, entry point and exit point for the fare calculation. When you don't know these facts it's impossible to properly fill out the bill. In a rental car, if the data doesn't match up, you'll pay the toll commission AND the rental company will double…

Enable road closure selection for freeway offramps
when reporting a road closure there are little "X" marks all over the map but i never see one specifically for the freeway offramp. i have tried reporting freeway offramp closures several times around Los Angeles County (most recently on the 170 north Magnolia Blvd. exit) and the "X" never shows up for the offramp so i am unable to report. oddly enough i always see an "X" appear for freeway onramps, just never for the offramps.

Flag when route contains tolls
Yesterday I was going from Kfar Saba to Tel Aviv in the morning and the route ended costing me over a 150 NIS.
I often use Waze and trust it so I put in the address and followed the route. At some point I realized that it was taking me to Road 6 (which I didn't want to take because I am with a rental car at the moment and they charge extra) it was too late to turn back at that point so I proceeded. Only to discover that the route was now taking me to the fast lane…
