add additional report radius
5 miles it's often to small for decisions but 25 to far on longer local journeys, such as work. Adding a ten mile radius option and maybe increasing in multiples of ten would work better than the current format

On map edit, turn speed camera image 180 degrees
The current solution where we put the red dot in the direction BEHIND the camera to set camera direction, the image indicating the direction of the lens is backwards. Perhaps turn the image 180 degrees? It adds a lot of confusion...

Monitize via radio
Waze should look to monetize by partnering with radio stations for up to date traffic reports, get someone to sponsor the report (like they do with today’s helicopter based reports) and split the fee. Would be more profitable for both and save on the carbon footprint of flying multiple helicopters over every city.

Profanity filter
Include a profanity filter in the chitchat feature.
Driving alone at night, by myself, another wazer sent me profane and very disturbing message. I flagged it, but regardles, it was emotionally horrible and hindered my ability to drive safely. I have since disabled chitchat, but there's no reason profanity/profane slang should be allowed in a GPS program.

Auto search for a route to my work, please discontinue doing this. I am retired and don't have a work site listed!
Please disable the program from automatically popping up with a route to my work, especially since I don't have a work located because I am retired. I find this very annoying. If I want a route, I will pick a route or search for a new one manually.

-- Points System limited to regional extension--
-- Points System limited to regional extension-- It is not fair to give the same amount of points to people living in Russia and, for example, Dominican Republic. We all know that you get the most of points from map editing, and people living in bigger countries get a regional advantage. I have been to Dominican Republic and there are not enough things to edit, but if you go to Russia... hurrah!. same thing when you think of China and Japan. I think you get the idea, there should be a calculation factor based on how extensive a country is.

individual vocal cue control
I would love to be able to turn the different vocal cues on and off individually. The only option currently seems to be to get a cue 1/4 mile before the turn, 1/10 mile before the turn, and at the turn itself. The 1/10 mile warning always comes immediately after the 1/4 mile warning, making it useless and annoying, so I'd really like to be able to turn that one off!
