Recognize stops when close enough/stopped/disconnected from Bluetooth
When adding a stop, I can’t always get to the exact spot that Waze thinks is the destination. So even though I’ve gotten very close, stopped for two minutes, and disconnected the phone from Bluetooth, Waze still thinks I’m going to the first destination unless I stop the drive and start a new one with my second destination.

Android auto integration
Android auto integration is pretty terrible. Search has no voice option. And when I switch to spotify it's just a blank screen when loved to the side widget screen, it really only shows next turn if actively using navigation. There is such a missed opportunity like how Google maps does their integration.

Allow two planned trips as segments of a two day drive.
Currently, when I begin and the second planned drive's destination, Waze gets stuck in a loop showing the messages "Route too long. Recalculating with new arrival day." and "Please wait." It never stops nor allows me to set the second planned drive start (to the destination of the first planned drive). Allow setting start location of a (second/subsequent) planned drive.

Do AWAY with cartoonish “rewards”
Do AWAY with the cartoonish rewards! This is a useful app and not a ridiculous game. Going 75mph down the highway and I “verify” a car on the side of the road and as soon as I do I come over a small rise and there’s a car in the left shoulder partially in the fast lane and the ridiculous cartoon rewards are still flashing so I can’t press the notification button to alert other drivers!! It’s either a game or a useful app, stop trying to make it both!!

Add School as a Category
Currently, there is no way to program School as a main destination. We have WORK and HOME, but no SCHOOL. This is a huge oversight., With so many of us working from home, driving the kids to school is the majority of the driving we do these days.

Police (Median)
We need a “Police (Median)” alert that warns traffic in both directions on an interstate. Police (hidden) and Police (other side) don't always apply. This alert would warn traffic in both directions of the interstate or divided highway, since most police run front and rear radars simultaneously.

Improve Reroute Efficiency
I find that when I'm driving my morning or afternoon commute, Waze isn't automatically updating my route as highway traffic evolves. While driving, I find myself repeatedly having to shut the app off and on to get the refreshed data to find the fastest route. I don't believe this is due to my cellular service, as I've performed speed tests at various points along my commute and achieved 20 mbps down and 5 up. If you could work on improving real time route efficiency based on quickest time to destination, your Wazers would be grateful.

Apple Carplay alert notification format
Regarding Apple Carplay, the notifications for cops, hazards, etc is set up that the "Thanks & Not There" are over & under each other. I feel they should be side to side instead. 1st its already risky to take eyes off the road to press on the alert but as the car is in motion and roads flow naturally in an up & down motion, It's pretty easy to confirm the wrong answer. If they were side by side, It completely reduces the clicking of the wrong answer.

police
After making a report of police, I noticed in my Inbox that it was labeled as "police speed trap." I don't think the app should make that assumption. I report police presence ONLY to promote officer safety. Sometimes large trucks block drivers' view and they may not be able to see there is an officer (or other emergency responder) at the side of the road.

When driving on the roads there is a message that you hear relatively much about a car on the side of the road.
You can add the option to create a message for a driver who is stuck . For example "need water" or "I run out of fuel" or "need transportation to the nearest city"1 vote -
have you ever thought about making a bluetooth remote for updating while driving
create a remote that has the most common updates on it - cop - vehicle on the side of the road - object in road - traffic. you would have to take your eyes of the road just hit the appropriate button for updating. updates would be more accurate and more people would participate in updating which it the whole point.

Allow us to create multiple waypoints
I don't understand why Waze only lets us create a destination and (only) 1 waypoint. This makes a great app unusable for many drives. Worse, Waze keeps saying the idea is "Not currently planned".
This idea gets submitted over and over and over. It is clear Waze users WANT multiple waypoints. Come on Waze - time to step up!

While traveling or entering a navigation route, the user should be able to search for a Point of Interest (POI) such as "Starbucks" and save it as route POI. The app should display all "Starbucks" locations on the route with the option to add one or more POIs as a new stop. the POI will remain active until navigation is stopper or user reached destination

Add a new watch beside iPhone’s one with arrival time
My suggestion is to add another watch showing the arrival time beside iPhone’s time.
Once Waze is running an the screen get lock, the time is shown with a blue background.
It would be very nice to be able to see actual time and destination estimated arrival time with both clocks on the same home screen and not being inside the app.3 votes -
Make the planned trips feature an option in settings that can be turned off, in Android Auto.
Make the planned trips feature an option in settings that can be turned off, in Android Auto. Currently, you need to search for the destination first then confirm if you are going to that destination right away or go later to save it as planned drive. I search for a destination, the results pop up and I press/select my desired result. Then there’s an additional destination popup that has to be selected. I’m told the purpose of the additional steps is to have users an option to plan for a route in a later time. Google maps does not…

Affichage
Afficher en permanence l'adresse de destination en haut de l'écran. On a parfois des doutes sur la destination qu'on a choisi.
De plus, lorsqu'on saisie une destination un message propose d'activer le Bluetooth pour les zones de tunnels (perte de la connexion GPS), quand on clic dessus on ne trouve pas l'endroit où il faut cliquer pour activer. Il serait bien de préciser la manipulation.1 vote -
Show search results on map
Waze search results are objectively inferior both in app and on android auto/carplay as compared to other popular navigation apps such as gmaps or apple maps.
Both of those apps display search results on a map view, with A, B, C etc pins with a selectable list on the side, and this works in app and on the in car head unit display. Google Maps also has a MUCH cleaner "add a stop" workflow.
This is a critical and basic feature gap that makes competing map applications much easier to use for searching18 votes -
Ztl
good morning, the suggestion concerns waze on android auto. if the driver does not carry the subject of the ztl permit he must first delete the ztl permit on waze on the phone and reconnect it to android auto. very uncomfortable. waze may ask if the route or destination crosses a ztl zone ask if the configured permission has been used? Thank you
