Feature: Quick Peek Upcoming Turns
For unfamiliar roads, I want a quick and intuitive way to “peek” at my next turn so I can position my car properly in advance.
Let users manually scroll the map ahead to an upcoming turn. The turn closest to the centre of the screen should automatically be highlighted and show its turn information. The turn highlight colour and turn information background colour could match, making the visual connection between the highlighted turn and its information immediately clear.
This is especially useful when multiple turns are close together. As the user moves the map, the highlighted turn would clearly indicate…

"I would like to request that the audible speed limit warning feature be made available even when a navigation route is not actively set. Many users, including myself, frequently drive on familiar routes where turn-by-turn navigation is not needed, but we still want to be alerted when exceeding the speed limit for safety reasons. Currently, the audible warning only triggers during active navigation, which makes the app less useful for daily commutes. Please consider adding an option in the settings to enable these alerts regardless of whether a destination is set or not."

Show the following maneuver at least 2 km ahead for better lane positioning
Waze should provide an early visual preview of the maneuver that comes after the currently upcoming maneuver.
The idea is to give drivers visibility of the following maneuver at least up to 2 km ahead, rather than showing it only when two maneuvers are extremely close together.
The purpose is not to start navigating to the second maneuver early. The second maneuver does not need a voice announcement, distance countdown, street name or other detailed information.
A small directional arrow below the primary maneuver would be enough.
For example:
↗ Exit right in 800 m
then ↙This simply tells…

Partner Hub Alerts with road segments included
Currently, Waze alerts are primarily point-based, which limits the ability to effectively communicate longer-stretching road hazards, such as extended areas of damaged pavement, roadworks, or adverse weather conditions across multiple segments.
I propose introducing an enhanced feature within the Waze Partner Hub that allows partners and authorized editors to define specific, continuous road segments (single or multiple) where an alert remains persistently active from start to finish.
To ensure optimal user experience and prevent user interface clutter, this feature should incorporate a smart priority rotation system. The extended segment alert would remain visible to drivers for the entire duration of…

Option to avoid specific freeways and tolls
We need an additional function wherein we can choose or exempt specific freeways and tolls from the route. For example, we are okay driving through tolls and freeways like CALAX, SLEX, NLEX, or SCTEX but want to avoid only SKYWAY specifically and not to drive through it (SKYWAY).

Feature request: Audio alerts for speed cameras when screen is locked and regardless of speed
Hello Waze Team,
I’m writing to suggest a feature that would significantly improve safety and usability for motorcyclists using your new Moto Mode.
The problem:
When riding a motorcycle, the phone is often in my pocket or mounted with the screen off to save battery. Currently, Waze speed camera alerts are only audible if the driver exceeds the speed limit . If I'm riding within the limit, the alert is only visual, and with the screen locked or off, I receive no warning at all.
The request:
Please add an optional setting (in Settings > Alerts & reports > Speed…

Feature Request: Touch Lock
Please add a touch lock feature, similar to VLC or MX Player.
As a motorcycle rider, my phone screen gets exposed to rain. Raindrops land on the screen and register as random touches — sometimes changing my route or opening settings, which disrupts my navigation mid-ride.
A touch lock would let the screen stay visible without accepting accidental taps, keeping the map view stable in wet conditions.
Suggested implementation: a lock button on screen that, when tapped, disables touch input. To unlock, the rider swipes across a designated area (same pattern used in VLC/MX Player), preventing accidental unlocks from stray…

Active Railroad Crossings
Using real-time data from vehicles, if a driver is approaching a railroad crossing with vehicles already stopped at the tracks, Waze can pick up on it by alerting the driver to "Prepare to stop".

Repeat voice navigation button

Optional Highway Traffic Jam Voice Alert
Optional Highway Traffic Jam Voice Alert
Waze already detects traffic speed in real time. Please add an optional voice warning such as:
"Heavy traffic ahead. Reduce your speed."
Trigger the alert when the average speed drops abruptly (for example, from 100 km/h to below 30 km/h within a short distance).
This would improve safety on highways by giving drivers more time to brake smoothly and reducing rear-end collisions. The feature should be optional in Settings.

Add stop - total trip time
When adding a stop, it would be great to see the total trip time. Not just the time to the first stop.

Better EV Support
In France, electric cars are now sold more than traditional gas cars.
EV drivers use Waze every day.
However, Waze is still designed mostly for gas vehicles.
Here are simple features to make Waze the best app for EV drivers.Better Route Alternatives for EVs
Current alternative routes show equal travel times. But they ignore distance and battery consumption.
One route might use much more energy.
Waze should calculate and show energy consumption for each alternative route.Vehicle Profile & Smart Charging Stops
Users should be able to select their vehicle brand and exact model.
Waze will know the real…

Convoy Mode
Subject: Feature Request: "Convoy Mode" - Real-time Route Sharing for Multiple Cars
Message:
To the Waze Development Team,I am a daily Waze user and a big fan of your navigation system. However, there is a missing feature that would greatly improve the experience for many users: a true "Convoy Mode" or Group Navigation.
Currently, the "Share Drive" feature is lagging, clunky, and doesn't clearly show the route of the other driver. When families or friends travel to the same destination in multiple cars, we need to see each other's live location directly on the highlighted route.
The proposed feature:…

Reoccuring online check
Waze appears to check for an internet connection only when the app first starts. If no connection is available at that point, it switches to an offline-maps-only mode. However, it does not seem to check again for connectivity while the app remains open.
For example, my car’s Wi‑Fi can take a few minutes to start after the ignition is turned on. If I open Waze before the Wi‑Fi is connected, the app stays offline even once the connection becomes available. To restore online functionality, I currently have to either start and cancel a route or fully close and reopen the…
