  1. Don't inundate me with popups on startup. . . EVER

    I'm happy for you that you're updating your app, but PLEASE STOP throwing popups at me when I start the app afterward. That will only do three things: 1. Piss me off. 2. Endanger my safety and the safety of others during the most dangerous time of driving (pulling out of a parking spot/driveway) with the distractions. 3. Ensure that I never actually see the information you're trying to get me to see.

    Please. Use common sense. Don't do this.

  2. Option to say "not here" for traffic and construction.

    Wake feed alerts seem to be old and inaccurate with no way to clear or report completed. Allow drives to vote construction and traffic reports off the map

  3. more traffic options

    You should add the ability to report light traffic, such as when you're somewhere that's abnormally uncongested.

  4. How about moving the "add friends" icon so that it doesn't cover the speedometer display?

    Either move the add friends icon to another part of the display, or make it an option to shut it off. Covering the speedometer makes it totally useless.

  7. Add a report feature for disaster reporting so emergency responders have real time info

    In today's Napa earthquake, it took many hours for emergency responders to collect, report and analyze data, do triage, etc. let the crowd report details of disaster events (type, severity, help requested, etc) and generate dashboards for emergency responders to see a summary and details of the data

  8. Bluetooth power saving causes voice to be cut. Play custom sound file before.

    Some phones and car radios have a power saving feature that mutes sound if no sound is played. Then, if a voice directive comes, it SHOULD be:
    "in 100 meters, turn left"
    but it IS:
    "ers, turn left"

    So an option to let the user play a custom sound file befor every directive would be useful:
    "[BING] ... in 100 meters, turn left."

  9. "View Drive" should be able to stay in landscape mode

    When used in landscape mode, pressing "View Drive" on a shared drive invitation switch to portrait.
    I think Waze should be able to stay in landscape.

  11. Please remove the daily limit on alerts.

    Daily limit on map alerts for police and vehicles on shoulder is WAY too low. Please raise the limit. On a long trip of 600 miles i passed through major cities and the amount of alerts goes up of course. This limit should be related to the WAZE score for the user. The higher the points, the more alerts per day you can send.

  12. Forward road-hazard reports to Highway Patrol

    Sometimes I see the same dangerous road hazards day after day and I think local authorities would take care of it if Waze could only pass on the report (if only reports with a lot of "confirmations" from other Waze users).

  13. Routing quality has plummeted after the Google acquisition - please get it back in shape!

    (copied over from https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=96033)

    I am a passionate Waze user who has converted many friends to the app, and has become a top 4% reporting contributor (I don't participate at all in any other gamified apps or websites). But now my support is waning fast.

    Ever since Google bought Waze, routing has progressively become worse and worse. I initially switched to Waze because Google Maps routing had become horrible - inefficient routes when there were obviously better ways to go, etc. Waze does awesomely creative things like telling me to get off the freeway at an exit then immediately…
