Copy-pasting coordinates from Google Maps includes parentheses.
Hello WAZE team, I have been using WAZE for almost over 8 years. Sometimes when I copy an address from Google Maps and ask for directions, the final destination ends up being incorrectly set on a highway or a blocked road, causing inconvenience as the destination is not accurately set. To solve this, I copy the exact coordinates from Google Maps and use them. Previously, when I entered coordinates like (48.1373294682532, 11.575360369297023), it would lead me to the precise location, and I would reach the exact destination. However, now it says that the destination cannot be found because of…

Yellow Box Junction Cameras
TLDR Version: At the moment on Waze you can only report either speed cameras, red light cameras or fake cameras, having a 'yellow box junction' camera would be a logical and great addition imho.
Non TLDR Version: Yellow box junction cameras drive me nuts (for those not UK based these are cameras that make sure yellow box junctions - ie boxes marked on the road to stop drivers stopping at the entrance to a side junction and blocking it), mainly because not all yellow boxes are enforced with cameras (so drivers from all angles enter it and the only way…

Stopping the app. Is still difficult. It needs to be a big easy to see END ROUTE. To stop the app. And be able to enter something else
A big easy to see “End Route “button that would take you right back to where you can enter in a new destination.

Groups on the road
Create groups, which on the road will see their members in real time, which will share their routes and destinations. This is very useful for companies and their agents on the road.

Text a person
I think it would be a great idea to add a suggestion to text someone in your contacts when you’ve made it to your destination. Sometimes I arrive to places in a rush and forget to text people and they get concerned to know if I made it safely. I think that Waze should add a reference to text certain people !

Integrate Waze for iOS into Google voice search on the Google app
Would it be possible to use Google to search the Waze map database and open a URL to navigate to the destination? Using the same idea as when you click a facebook url, it opens the app and navigates to the relavent page or event etc?

Provide an API for starting Waze with multiple destinations
10 votesThank you for this suggestion.
This idea has been being discussed for a while and recognized as an important user request.
We hear the community’s voice and would like to share that while we can’t currently commit to a timeline, we do have plans to create a way to add more than one stop pre-drive.
We’ll keep the community posted, please stay tuned! -
Carplay recherche vocale
Bonjour,
Sur l'application il est possible de parler pour rentrer une destination, cette fonction n'est pas dispoble sur Carplay ce qui est très regrettable sachant que le but du Carplay est de rester les deux mains sur le volant, hors pour rentrer une adresse il faut la taper ... Sachant que la fonction vocale est disponible sur l'application, une mise a jour sera la bienvenue !!1 vote -
POI route / info
provide switch for "tourist mode" - while you are driving to destination, provide limited notification of POI in the area (on your right is the Eiffel tower, built in 1887). "tourist mode" can allow for categories for selection (history, culture, etc). linked to this is the ability to select a POI route in your area (just go for a drive to the POIs in your area).

Link address from other apps
Most functional Waze yet! Navigation seems spot on and not obtrusive like Google's offering. Main thing is Waze is really accurate! Google Maps loses its way and gets me lost! Like the fresh look of Waze. Loads really fast on Note 4 Marshmallow. Love the send ETA so people I choose can monitor my drive in real time!
Few wish list items and believe me, not trying to turn Waze into Google Maps! So just the essentials..
Could use lane assist.
Need to get links from Yelp, Google Now, and other websites to share the actual destination not unknown street…

Restart After Stop consistently direct me to turn the wrong way
For some reason, even though I was using waze and for instance, stopped at a gas station or other stop, when I turn waze back on and program my next destination, it consistently tells me to turn the wrong way (right when I need to go left, left when I need to go right, etc). Can't WAZE store my exact orientation and location at the end of each route and know exactly which way I am facing when I turned the car off, so that it will use that as a staring point the next time I select a …

This-trip-only Navigation Preferences or Warning When Any "Avoid" Option is On
Occasionally a given trip requires selecting "Avoid" options within Navigation Preferences. However, it's easy to forget those options were set, resulting in a convoluted and potentially time-consuming routing the next time Waze is used for a different destination. Suggestion is to provide an upfront Navigation Preferences option for "this trip only" when setting up the trip or when a trip is selected from favorites. An alternate approach to this issue is that whenever a future trip is defined, via favorites, new trip or past trip, the user is alerted if any Navigation "Avoid" settings are ON.

Layout
When we get an alert such as Police ahead the response boxes are side by side and difficult to tap the correct one when responding. They need to be end to end so that the correct one can be easily tapped.
End to end horizontally or vertically but not side by side.1 vote -
Straighter/easier routes setting
There should be a way to set a preference for straighter/easier routes. Often, Waze suggests a route with a bunch of turns down small side streets or a really curvy road just to save one minute on a 20-minute drive when there was a more direct route such as a main road or highway. With this preference enabled, Waze would default to a route with a slightly longer duration that is much simpler and requires fewer turns.

Group Navigation
Invite friends to join a navigation where once joined and the navigation is started everyone in the group can see the destination and individual locations are shared between each other. This would make Waze the Number 1 navigation app for all motorbike riders.

searching for gas stations, restaurants, or parking lots along my active route
Hi Waze Team, I’d like to propose a feature: when searching for gas stations, restaurants, or parking lots along my active route, Waze should first display the ones that are directly on my route and on the same side of the road I'm driving on, leaving the ones off-route for the end of the list. It would be much more practical. The goal is to prioritize places that don't require making detours or U-turns, showing businesses located right on the shoulder/side of the road first, and placing options that involve crossing the avenue or detouring at the bottom of…

Always allow to use the options to report problems, even after arriving ;-)
Always allow to use the options to report problems like roadworks ect., even after arriving or interrupted trip. Why not? 🤷🏼♂️
My trick now is to start the navigation again to the same destination and hit the report botton who just came available again😄👍
