  1. Voice control for alerts - both acknowledging and reporting

    To Avoid looking at screen to acknowledge or report warning. Tap screen anywhere and say ‘waze. Accident. Or waze traffic standstill or waze still there or waze no longer there. Looking at picking lists while driving is not a good idea I feel

  2. Kill the new cutesy animation when loading. Already too long and now longer. Annoying

    Milliseconds matter. Ask Spotify. Adding extra loading time for the sake of a cutesy animation is heresy.

  3. Change Icons for Avoiding Tolls/Highways Etc

    Right now, it's weird the way it's setup. The icons say "Avoid Tollls" or "Avoid Highways". When you touch them, they don't change their name but the image will put a line through it. To me, that feels like a double negative and is confusing. I wish it would say Tolls and Highways and when you click on it, then it would change to Avoid Tolls or Avoid Highways.

  4. טכניקת הגדלת המפה בהתקרבות לפנייה

    בעבר, כשהתקרבת לפנייה או נקודת החלטה, קנה המידה של המפה היה משתנה באופן רציף ומועיל.
    לאחרונה השתנה האופן בו המפה נעשית יותר מפורטת, והשינוי הוא גרוע ביותר.
    כעת, לאחר השינוי שנעשה לאחרונה, לעיתים (לרוב) קנה המידה לא משתנה כלל, ולא ניתן להבחין בפרטים, דבר שגורם לטעויות בניווט, ולעיתים ההגדלה קורית מאוד מאוחר, כאשר כבר מאוחר מדי לתקן. בנוסף, ההגדלה כשהיא קורית, היא גדולה מדי, מה ששם את הפרטים החשובים להתמצאות מחוץ לתמונה, ושוב- פוגע בה.
    מדוע שונה האלגוריתם? המצב הקודם היה מושלם!!!
    החזירו את המצב לקדמותו!!!
    תודה

  5. Blow up algorithm

    There has been a Terrible change in the blow up algorithm lately.
    In the past, the scale change when approaching a turn or decision making point was gradual and useful, recently the way the map scale chances is horrible.
    It changes very very late, sometimes not at all, and when it does, it blows up too much, sometimes not all the relevant info is visible.
    Why did it change in the first place? It was perfect before!!!
    Change it back!!!!

  6. Have a place where known bugs, changes to features and timelines to fix can be viewed by users

    Waze often has inexplicable outages or changes for certain features but there is nowhere to easily find out information in one place about known bugs, said that's not working, feature updates and changes. It would prevent a lot of angst if users knew that problems were known about and being fixed. Kind of like a live changelog or buglog.

  7. Make the speedometer adjustable

    Make the speedometer display adjustable to whatever the user sets. Just as a display. It should match the speed on the dashboard. Because that's what people rely on, not the satellite speed on their small screens.

    If I'm driving 100km/h and the app keeps saying 90km/h then allow me to enter +10 constantly so it can match the speedometer on the dashboard.

  8. Reduce size of lower notification box

    Lower Notification bar too high and wide:
    The lower bar that shows ETA, time and Km left occupies too much area of the screen, hiding vital information very often.
    When there is a warning, like for example, an imminent radar, the notification box gets even bigger and covers like 1/3 of the screen, hiding something as vital as the max. speed allowed.
    The lower bar could display the same info using one third or even less screen space than it uses now. I suggest you to reduce its size and maybe keep it in the left lower corner to allow…

  10. Road trip mode

    We just drove 3200 km. It'd be nice to have a way to program the length of drive you prefer, with comfort stops (for kids/dogs). A way to program favorite restaurants, gas stations, etc. a connection to wiki info for points of interest or info about towns. A wildlife on highway hazard sticker. Bathroom rating system. How's that?

  15. Add an option to change where the alert is displayed on your phone screen (eg. speed cameras) from the bottom or top of your phone screen

    Add an option to change where the alert is displayed on your phone screen (eg. speed cameras) from the bottom or top of your phone screen. As i find that for me when the alert is on the bottom i miss it due to the placement of my phone in the phone holder so if it was on the top of the screen that would be much better for me personally so give users the option to change where the alert is displayed on screen.

  17. Button Size

    I like the new smaller icons. However, they moved halfway up the screen. The ability to resize the buttons or relocate/move the buttons around would be nice. If I have the smaller buttons permanently, I would at least like to be able to put them side by side on the bottom right of the screen

  18. Better CarPlay display

    Dear Waze Team,

    I’d like to suggest a small but meaningful UI improvement to enhance user experience.

    Currently, the box displaying the estimated arrival time, remaining minutes, and distance is located in the bottom left corner of the screen. Unfortunately, this area often overlaps with alerts and notifications, especially when there are multiple incidents or warnings, making it difficult to quickly view key travel information.

    Would it be possible to relocate this box to the top right corner of the screen or offer customizable placement in the settings? This change would greatly improve visibility and reduce distraction while driving.

    Thank…

  19. Would love if - after select your destination, In the section where gas icon is -ADD rest area icon

    Would love if - after select your destination, In the section where gas icon is -ADD rest area icon, which would then populate upcoming rest areas and miles away along route. ..
    in addition. Have a specific Rest area icon that shows up as your driving the route ((just like the train tracks notice comes up or a hazard notice comes up ))
    Business justification. .. most people driving and using GPS. Are not intimately familiar with the stops or areas - this helps for safety instead of getting stranded somewhere. Thank you for your time.
