Vehicle NOT “car” on side of road
Recent changes to the hazard reporting system has it calling a vehicle on the side of the road always a car, but the majority of the time it’s not a car it seems. Why did it change from vehicle on side of road to car on side of road? It’s like the folks at Waze have never seen a truck.
It’s also also still too many taps to report this. Furthermore, the Button to report this is right in the middle which makes it too easy to tap something else, it should be either at the very top or the…

Need an option in search to switch routes from current location and destination and vice versa.
I like to plan routes and take the same way to and back from a destination. I think it would be beneficial to be able to see a route and alerts from a destination to your current location. Example: A is my current location I’m going to B my destination. Switch A->B TO B->A. Just like google maps.

When I arrive at my destination it just says “you have arrived at your destination” but it doesn’t tell me what the house number is.
When I arrive at my destination it just says “you have arrived at your destination” but it doesn’t tell me what the house number is. It also does not say the house number at the top of the screen if I copied it from my calendar. It should be in BIG numbers at the top of the screen and say out loud “you have arrived.. look for 8212 amhurst st. 8-2-1-2”

Be able to set your destination remotely.
I'm out on the road and the office want to change my route. They should be able to amend or set a new destination remotely so I don't need to touch my phone while driving. Can have a feature that I preset who I give permission to be able to change my routes.

Unable to close 'Arriving at destination' popup displayed on top of map.
Occasionally, after having reached a destination while navigating, the "Arriving at Destination" popup that is displayed over the map cannot be closed. The small X button to close it is not displayed, often only showing the option to minimize the popup. This happens sporadically.

Ability to add a stop / travel to destination via another place
It would be good to have the ability to travel to a destination via another place e.g. travel to point C from point A, via point B. This would be handy if you’re maybe picking someone up and need to work out what time to leave so as to reach your final destination by a certain time. Google maps has this function.

Add option to set a destination as final destination in when adding a stop, not just the existing options of "Add a stop" and "New Drive"
Sometimes when running errands, I'm already driving to "A". But then I want to get directions on how to get from "A" to "B". With the current options of "Add a Stop" and "New Drive", I would have to "Stop", set directions to "B", and then add "A" as stop. This is very complicated and it would be much simpler if there was an option to simply add "B" as final destination while I'm already navigating to "A".

Red tint on the side that traffic is slow
The red/yellow line is thin and gets obscured by the purple nav line.
In addition to the current line, I suggest a wider transparent line in red/yellow tint. The wider line should be drawn alongside the road, rather than exactly on it. The line should be on the side that the traffic is on.
In addition to the obscuring problem, the little moving flow arrows are hard to see when driving, while a broad tint clearly to the side of the road might be clearer.

It would be nice if one could add more than one additional (extra) destination so that one can plan a trip with several destinations/stops.
Hello
I really enjoy the app and it's really helpful but it would be nice if one could add more than one additional (extra) destination/stop so that one can plan a trip with several destinations/stops. This possibility would be good both in the "plan a ride" and when one enters destinations just before driving.
Thanks

To posibility to see arriving time to final destination instead of waypoint
Many times I add waypoint to get route which I prefer. Most of time I'm not interested when I arrive to waypoint but when I arrive to final destination. Sometimes arriving time to waypoint is important so I think it should be easily chosen on display (also in android auto).

Only show gas stations on my side of the freeway
When I search gas station on my route, waze also shows gas station on the other side of the freeway. Those are not reachable, unless I turn around.
Could you improve this feature so gas stations on the other side of the freeway are excluded, or make it a settings option.4 votes -
Stop auto refreshing and zooming back in when I am trying to zoom out and see all of the possible routes to my destination...
Stop auto refreshing and zooming back in when I am trying to zoom out and see all of the possible routes to my destination... Going from city to city there are different routes. I must zoom out to look at the path they take. ...but this app zooms back to my car location as soon as I zoom out. It makes picking the best route a blind guess instead of something better.

Final/total destination information including added trip to the existing laid-out route
Feature recommendation: Whenever a rider adds a destination to an existing laid-out route, the app doesn’t display final/total destination information, such as the combined distance and time to the final destination. For example, when I lay a route, I see the total miles and timing to complete the trip, and if I decide to add a coffee shop as a pit stop, it will show the total miles and timing to the pit stop rather than the whole trip. I would like to know what it would mean to me to have a pit stop that takes up some…

Android Auto interface, select destination on map
When long-tapping the Waze for Android Auto map, a location marker appears and the road is highlighted and that's all.
I would like a "navigate to point" popup to appear, similar to google maps. Without this, it is not possible to navigate to a point highlighted on the map.13 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2023 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
Android Auto Proected is a major focus for us in this year, and we encourage you to read more about it in the Android Auto forum for updates and latest releases.

Change the voice prompt for reaching the waypoint from "You have reached your destination" to "You have reached your waypoint"
Please consider changing the voice prompt for reaching the waypoint from "You have reached your destination" to "You have reached your waypoint".
In fact you reach the waypoint, not the (final) destination.2 votes
