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.
Thanks! -
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 -
use speed limits to cap estimated time to destination
It seems to me that Waze uses the average speed of traffic to estimate the time to the destination of the route selected. However, this is not very useful to me if the average speed of traffic is greater than the legal speed limit. While I may be okay with exceeding the speed limit under certain conditions, I almost always prefer to know how long it will take me to get somewhere if I drive at most the legal limit. From there, I can make my own decision as to what route to take or how fast to drive.

Possibility to edit destination address
I'm a taxi driver and can suggest the next improvement:
It will be very useful to have possibility to edit address after select it from the list that appears while input the street name. Also it will be helpful to have possibility to edit the address of the current route (sometime it nessessary to change just the street number while driving) and from history list.
No problems if WAZE will recalculate the route after edit address.
Best regards.4 votes -

I suggest that the traffic reporting button, at least in countries where driving is on the right side of the road, move to the left side of the screen which is closer and more accessible to the driver.

Weather summary for current location and/or destination location
On the map screen (phone and CarPlay screen) there should be a weather summary (temp and forecast for rain/snow/etc) for either your either your current location or your destination location. Maybe have a spot in the settings to turn this option on/off and which location you want the weather information for.

As a biker I don’t want Waze to open last recent destination when starting Waze to prevent me to take off my gloves to scroll down the list.
Add an option to prevent recent destination menu to appear when starting Waze.

Accept all possible formats of GPS coordinates as destination
Let's do Waze more user friendly when entering GPS coordinates.
It would be nice if Waze would accept all possible formats of GPS coordinates (many www maps produce different formats of coordinates - usually with N/S, W/E letters - it is not user friendly always think how to transalte them into the only one current supported format...
I can imagine, that when using N/S, W/E letters even order of the longtitude and latitude can be switched, etc...24 votes -
Report cop or accident on other side of the road through carplay
I love being able to use Waze through carplay, but I miss some of the features when you use it without carpaly. Reporting cops, hazards, or accidents on the other side of the road are important I feel. Can they please be added??
5 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Improving the flexibility to adjust starting point/destination
As of now, the user must head to the “Plan a drive” feature in order to plan a route starting from a different location of his current location. In addition, to actually see the route and it’s milestones, the user have to complete the flow for “Plan a drive”, save it and then click on it again. Only then the route is showing up..
It is not intuitive at all.My suggestion is this-
After opening the app, the user is simply choosing a location (not through the “Plan a drive” flow) using the search box on the top. Once…1 vote -
Enable speed and associated icons to be placed on the left or the right side of the navigation screen at drivers discretion
Currently speed icons only display on right side of navigation screen. I drive a right hand drive car and speed icons are obscured by steering wheel and indicator stalks. It would be nice to have option to display the icons on the left or the right side of navigation screen at driver's discretion to facilitate clearer display depending on car navigation screen installed position.

The ability to make certain areas a 'black list' or 'no go' zone that will be avoided by the routing algorithm.
Sometime the routes are through areas on roads that are either dangerous or just needs to be avoided. The ability to black list or create certain no-go areas that will be avoided by the routing algorithms at all cost, unless the the final destination is in-side the area. I would rather spend more time travelling than go through these areas.

Please add an optional toggle for destination pins to stay on screen after arriving
Please add an optional toggle for destination pins to stay on screen after arriving. I find as a delivery driver that the pins disappear way to soon especially in dense buisiness/ residential areas then I have to open up different map program.

CHANGE STOPPING SIDE OF VEHICLE IN AUSTRALIA.
When using WAZE to follow mapping for directions to an address in Australia. Currently the Waze system calculates the stop with the right side of vehicle at the stop meaning vehicles either park illegally or have to make an adjustment to stop. In Australia we are meant by law to stop on the LEFT side of the carriageway to park etc, NOT the right.

Rideshare Pickup and Dropoff on Right Side of Road
I use Waze for rideshare, and would be great to have an option in taxi mode to be routed where I drop off or pick up a passenger on the right side of the road. This would be a good option as long as it doesn’t take me too far out of the way. I guess in some countries the left side may be preferred.

reporting vehicles on the side of the road
when reporting a vehicle on the side of the road, if the "vehicle stopped" icon were on the second screen and not buried, would be safer. 5 user inputs vs. a possible 3 - less time looking away from the road and at the map/device
