parking button always on screen
there is a lot a free unused space on the top right of the screen, why it can't be used for put a parking botton, so when you are close to the destination you can press it and waze will show you the best parking spot close to the destination!

New front screen warning
Hi all. I think we need a new front screen, just after you type your destination. This new screen will give you traffic info and route options like Google Maps does and more. Like and advanced warning before your drive starts. Otherwise you can just think, why has this diverted me? Then not bother and carry on ignoring the re route.

STOP 180° car rotation when standing still
So I come to a stop light, and after a while, my car and map (not the screen) rotates, I guess, as it thinks I actually did make a U turn. Problem is my speed is 0km/h. It happens even when you have a destination to navigate to, and then, all of u sudden, I'm turned around and I'm being shown to make first to the right. I start driving, the whole thing rotates ones again, and I miss my left turn !?!?! I think it's because it get's a satellite position which shifted a bit, so it thinks that…

I love this program... most of the time..... I does tend to send me on some really strange routes.
This isn't an idea, more than a comment and frustration vent. Quite often, WAZE will get me within sight of my destination, on a straight, correct path, and then tell me to basically go around the block or some other additional route for no apparent reason. I use the program for driving limousines and it's a little frustrating with clients in the car.

Select "From and To" plus "Stop Off" on the app/live web map
To have the opportunity to add a "From" address as opposed to where you currently are. Therefore put an address in where you want to start your trip and then add the destination, and to also add "Stop Off" during the trip and possibly multiple stops like some map alternatives use.

multiple ideas
- when navigating, esp. for Uber, Waze takes me to alleys for the destination address, not to the actual street
- why doesn't Waze show one way street direction with arrows on map?
- is there a way to stop directing me to turn left onto/cross a busy street with no stop signs or lights?
- can the step by step directions show the destination address as well as the checkered flag?
- show ahead of time which lane to be in for all off-ramps on highways

Crossing guard
Put an option to report a crossguard in the ways report section. If a crossing guard is reported (or detected), try and route users a quicker way, especially around school zones!
Multiple times Waze has told me to take a side street because it is meant to take less time, however it ends up taking more time due to crossing guards near school zones, construction zones, etc.

Screen slide to reveal friends list feels very "trigger happy"
Have noticed it quite difficult to pan and zoom the live map without activating the "Friends" sliding drawer from the right side of the screen.

I would like to tap the ETA to iMessage my ETA to a preferred recipient (three buttons - most used, most recent, or from Contacts)
Tap the ETA button and a menu would pop-up with three buttons - 1. the recipient most frequently sent an ETA, 2. the recipient (different from 1.) most recently sent an ETA, and 3. Field that searches Contacts. Then iMessage the Wazer username, destination address, and ETA. Example: WazerUser1 will arrive at 531 17th Street, Milwaukee, WI at 10:25PM in 15 minutes. See you there!

Vehicle and road type selection
I own car and motorcycle. I can only select one vehicle. While in car I don't want to go through unpaved roads. But while on my bike I'd love to be sent to my destination over unpaved roads. If there was a way to select 2 vehicles and customize the route for each. That would be a cherry on the cake. Then when starting a GPS guidance you could choose weather to use a car or bike route.

AskWazersBox - a hybrid reporting tool enhancing Wazers and Map Editors cooperation
As StreetView is often outdated or just does not exist when trying to keep Waze Maps updated with latest road constructions or changes, road configurations/restrictions/speed limits/signs etc. needs to be checked and verified on-spot. There's no chance Waze Map Editors will go and check everything themselves. We have so many Wazers driving around that could help them answering specific questions.
I suggest creating a hybrid reporting tool that would extend existing reporting functionality and help Waze Map Editors gathering specific answers they need directly from Wazers who are on-spot. This would let to keep Waze Maps updated as fast and…

Incident pop ups
The pop up incidents are blocking the turn by turn making me miss exits on freeways. Can you move them to lower right side of screen so they don’t block the turn by turn on upper left side of screen? Plus they stay on screen WAY TOO LONG. It’s a bit distracting for the driver.

Extra Opt-Out Box
I'd like to suggest that the 'my waze' and 'where to' boxes that now automatically sit at the bottom of the screen have a opt-out check box in the display section. As they are most annoying when using Waze without needing or wanting to input a destination.

When backing out of destination leave screen there instead of moving back to arrow. Like google maps
When in Google maps if you type in an address and then cancel the trip, the screen will stay there. I do this for pinpointing areas, with waze the screen resets to your position after backing/canceling a trip.

Privacy: Exposure Minimization Technique
A nice privacy enhancement would be to set this up so that when you are within a half mile, or (even better) within a user defined radius of your destination, to automatically go invisible. Another alternative would be to set it up so that if Δ(X,Y) is all within a small area - such as 10 feet to the toilet and 10 feet back (for those that can’t let go of the phone) that the client stops reporting user data.
I understand that the 2 minute delay is a way of mitigating privacy… However, my wife got home last…
