calculated average speed of average speed segment
There are some road segments which have average speed cameras. Almost always the human beings unable to calculate average speed, so instead they simply don't exceed the enforced speed, the max speed, not average. In case if there are obstructions, slow vehicles, turning vehicles in the average speed segment, the real average speed may fall significantly below what was requested by Road Code rules.
Please add indicator of calculated average speed of passing of the current average speed segment45 votes -
Add a music player which can play local files, such as VLC
The new music player feature looks nice, but it only seems to support streaming apps, with no apparent way to play media stored locally on the device. VLC is one such media player which supports a wide range of file formats, but there are many others.
Please support at least one such app for those of us who don't want to use streaming services.

Long Time Report from WME or Livemap
I think this is something that has been asked and requested for a long time from all over the world.
I think that it would be very useful to be able to insert Long Time Reports from WME or Livemap, also in order to better manage crisis or event situations.
The Report should Be:
Work on Road
Narrow or Low Road
Dangerous Road
Landslide
Changing lane
One way alternatively controlled by traffic light45 votes -

In road hazards, include an option for "rough road".
There are a number of times when traveling and the road I was on was in terrible condition. It was extremely bumpy, some pot holes, loose gravel, etc. I would have liked a warning regarding these conditions. While there is a pot hole warning option, that does not clearly express the quality of the road in toto. These rough road conditions apply to paved roads as well as dirt roads. In reality, in some places where I have driven the dirt roads were in better condition than the paved roads.

Randy Marsh (South Park) navigation voice.
Hi, if you could make a Randy Marsh from South Park navigation voice, it'll be one of the very few things you could do, to improve Waze.
Thank you for one of the best apps/navigation service I have ever seen :)45 votesThank you for your suggestion. We will add this voice request to our User Request wish-list.

Add estimated battery percentage when arriving at destination (for electric cars)
Via Google Maps in my electric car (Volvo xc 40) I see an estimated battery percentage at arrival. The app is installed on the car itself, not car play. I would love this functionality in Waze.

Big "stop Waze" button
Sometimes (often) you just want to stop and close Waze. But you have to go through menus, which is DANGEROUS while driving. There should be a big readily-visible X on the main navigation screen. Or alternatively, a big readily-visible MUTE button.

You should be able to fully adjust the volume of the voice separately from the volume of music playing.
Add a volume bar to customize the sound of navigation voice over music. If listening to music at a higher level the voice is overwhelming.

S-Turn penalties
In case of traffic even light, some ways become impossible to cross, mainly ave. with more than 3 or 4 lanes.
Proposal to include a S-Turn routing penalties in case of traffic in the crossing street.
This will avoid routing in ways with less than 200m (safe length for lane change is S-Turn even with traffic).

Put app in Tesla S
Partner with Tesla to have Waze added (or replace Google Maps). I have a Tesla S and the customized Google maps that comes with the car is often VERY wrong about directions and traffic. I end up using Waze on my phone to find the best alternative routes. Give Elon Musk a call!

Add DUI check point report button
Add a DUI check point alert, report button that is seperate from police reports. This can be linked with online area reports plus waze drivers can report. But it would help if could say which direction on the street the checkpoint is set up on.

Support for dimensions and combinations such as caravans
I propose that Waze allows users to save multiple vehicles, each with their own dimensions, including height, width, and length. It should also be possible to add vehicle combinations, such as a car with a caravan or trailer, where the additional dimensions are automatically taken into account during route planning.
Users could then manually select the appropriate vehicle or combination before starting a trip, or Waze could automatically detect the vehicle via CarPlay or Android Auto.
It is essential that Waze takes infrastructure limitations into account—such as bridge heights, narrow roads, sharp turns, and low tunnels—so that any routes that…
