Why can we no longer use waze on 2 devices simultaneously
Wished Waze had made that info about this change ( ie being unable to use waze simultaneously on 2 devices) available to users upfront. That’s a big change & I wasted a lot of time on a very long drive to try & get waze to work the way I’ve come to expect.
I have waze open on two devices ( iPhone & iPad) that have different cellular carriers, whenever I go on longer drives (2 hrs or more) since waze’s network connections are always spotty. This has been my work around & provides continuous coverage & also allows me…5 votes -
Alert for run-down animals
English: We members of a robotics team created a new Waze alert. Imagine how much will be feasible alert when someone saw or trampled an animal? Usually the people don’t know what do when they trample an animal, if the Waze has this option the rescue of these animals will be easier of be accomplished and the animals will not die for staying for a long time waiting to they be ransomed.
Will have an animal run-off alert (just as they already exist the camera alerts, per example) when the user to click on this alert he will notify if…24 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Delays
In the past, when there was a delay in the arrival time, there was a sound that alerted to it, and same when the arrival time was sooner than expected. It is no longer the case. Please bring it back

Icônes de navigation
Bonjour,
Le bouton orange situé en bas à droite sert à signaler différentes choses. Il ouvre sur une page avec 10 icônes, et chacune est à choix multiples : il faut les ouvrir pour savoir ce qui est dedans, et comme c’est écrit en petit il faut se concentrer dessus, au détriment de la sécurité, notamment lorsque l’on a pas de co-pilote.
Pour renforcer la sécurité, pourquoi ne pas mettre uniquement 9 icônes à choix unique (qui tiendront sur la page), avec un logo bien clair pour chacune, et une 10ème icône à choix multiple que l’on ne pourrait utiliser…2 votes -
signalement police
bonjour, nous sommes beaucoup a nous apercevoirent qu'il y a un abus de ce signalement, au lieu de confirmer le premier signalement ils rajoutent un autre signalement cela fait beuguer la voix du gps et en plus si l'application marche en arriere plan, le signalement est inutile car on vous previent 500 metres avant, sur autoroutes a 130 km/h il faut quelques secondes.... et en general l'auteur du signalement peut l'avoir signaler une fois l'avoir depasser donc dans tout les cas il est inutile... l'application serait bien mieux en modifiant la distance d'au moins 2 km ou de la supprimer…

Waze maps lag BADLY when used via CarPlay on my 2022 Kia Telluride.
The Waze map display lags BADLY when used via CarPlay on my 2022 Kia telluride. The sound / alerts are correct but the map lags about a mile behind where I am located. It’s extremely frustrating. Please fix.

Pothole alert switch off
Could you please make pothole alert awitch off independently from other alerts?
We have a lot of them, and the notifications are coming always. They can hide real dangers, because I use to ignore the alarm sound.1 vote -
Vibration-only alerts for passengers
It would be nice to have vibration-only alerts for directions, to be used by a passenger. I am often in the passenger seat and reading out the turns to the driver, but sometimes I get distracted and miss the turn. The sounds are distracting, but it would be helpful if the app would just buzz the phone shortly before the turns.

Make a police in motion icon.
The Icon will move at the with the current speed of the Wazer who tapped it. The Icon would move for 1 KM and then dissappear. This would be helpful for those speeding in the HOV lanes or going opposite traffic. Police have radars that will track you if you are approaching them now.

Shorter Alert Sounds
I often listen to podcasts while driving but get frustrated when the Waze alerts are long and tend to block the audio of the podcasts. Could we get a custom voice that says simply "Traffic" instead of "Heavy Traffic Reported Ahead", etc.

Improve the quality of your TTS voices.
Please improve the quality of your TTS voices with street names. You have all the better features from other navigation software, but Google is leaving you in their dust with the quality of their TTS. Your's sound robotic and frustrating to listen to.

There must new route selection with HOV lanes 2+ or 3+ passengers.The warning of speed cams,redlight cams,hidden police radar cars in Waze
In USA the Waze must update a new route selection when there is congestion earlier.Especially Google Maps works very well to avoid any congestion before arrival that point.There must a new selection for HOV lanes 2+ or 3+ passengers in same car with entries to HOV lanes.The warning must be often for Speed cams,redlight cams,hidden police cars.The most important update for the colors are conflicting about traffic congestion.The userface of map must be update similar vs Google Map.I am glad to have Waze ,but the aim must be a better than previous.thanks
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

Avisos sonoros de radares
Peço se possível como sugestão que o app comece a emitir alertas em geral não somente de radares sempre que o mesmo seja identificado. Acredito que até por segurança o alerta sonoro se faz mais útil, tendo em vista que não pra ficar o tempo todo de olho na mídia do carro, tirando a atenção do trânsito.

Complaint
Just want to say the sound you have for railroad crossing is extremely irritating to my ears. I use Waze to navigate when I'm doing Uber so unless you change it I'm going to have to use another navigator

English (uk) voice has changed for the worst
Hi- I am a big fan of WAZE. I use it everyday and convert everyone over to it, as well. There is an issue in having with the updated "voices".
The new ENGLISH (UK) does not say the street names as it used to do. This is a problem because now I have to continually take my eyes off road and read the street names on phone. Tonight I MISSED MY MERGE because I was looking down at phone and couldn't merge to the left in time.
The previous ENGLISH (uk) voice would say mileage, direction of turn or merge…

Adjust the location of alerts
In Android Auto, whenever an alert appears, it hides the search buttons, alternative routes, sound, and especially the button to create an alert. This means you have to close the alert to access the create alert button. This wastes time creating the alert and makes it unsafe, as this additional step distracts the driver.
One suggestion is to have alerts appear below the traffic directions without pushing the interface to the right.

Use predictive modeling to better route traffic during a major traffic event
Western Washington state experienced a major traffic event when a train derailed and shut down Interstate 5 for the whole day. 60K vehicles use that stretch of I-5 every day. I used Waze to navigate home, but a 40 minute drive turned into 5.5 hours because of the accident and using side roads.
Waze tried its best to find the best route, but the predicted two-hour drive kept getting worse and worse. Of course, there's not much historic information to know how to the side and back roads would reach to that much traffic flooding onto them, but Waze failed…
