Auto-restart app and continue navigation to last entered destination when crashed or shutdown unexpectedly
Hi,
Sometimes the app crashes for some reason. I would like Waze to auto restart the app (use an iOS/Android command like Skype that checks if the application is still running, if not, then start application)
The reason for the auto-restart is that I do not want to touch the device while driving. Especially when on a motorcycle.

Add places you want or need to visit, when you are near.
I am forgetful. It would be amazing to add places you should visit somtime. Like going to a special store or picking up something you bought. Or even jobs you need to do.
You could set a nearby limit, like when in aprox 3km away you get a popup of this place, do you want to visit this place on your route today?
You should be able to add vital information as phone numbers and links to items or places.

Update to run on background on Sync 3
The iPhone and Samsung devices recently released will show signs of burns when a picture is on for a long period of time. In this case since the screen has to be on in order for the car to run app its very bad for phone screen and can also make device get really hot and may start fire inside vehicle . I drive for hours at a time and i have noticed the heating problem. Please update app to run in the background with screen off.

Ask before you grab a persons time.
Before the app goes through all the set-up screens please ask the user if they just need directions right now and set-up later. They might be in a difficult situation and not have time for an app that keeps trying to build their profile. Your product us used in a dangerous environment and insistent / persistent distraction is stressful at the least and at worst potentially life threatening.

Flash écran pour les alertes et/ou les changements de directions.
Bonjour,
je n'utilise pas les alertes vocales parce que j'écoute souvent la radio et que celles-ci viennent couper le fils des discutions.
Par contre je passe parfois à coté d'alerte parce que mon oeil n'a pas capté qu'il y avait un danger devant ou un changement d'itinéraire par rapport à d'habitude.
je propose une option qui consisterait a faire une flash rapide avec l'écran (par le flash de l’appareil photo ... il est derrière l'écran ...) pour avertir de ces alertes ou des changements de directions.8 votes -

Stop changing language when you cross the border
I don't know if it's my phone or waze, but I'm taking a trip around Europe and every time I cross a border the voice commands change language. And it's not even the language of the country, I'm in Italy now and it switched to French. My native tongue is Dutch but I'm from Belgium so I speak a bit of French but it would still be nice just to keep the language I selected.

filter places by distance and open.
my idea is to add new filter in the search which will be very helpful for all the clients,
1 - we will ask all the places to put the open time, for example on Sunday we open from 8:00 tell 17:00.
2- new search filter will be added to the clients which will give them the ability to search by category and closed place and open at spastic time.i will give an example:
now its 23:30 and i need a particular drug,
And I need the nearest and open pharmacy at this time,
so the filter which i…5 votesThank you for your valuable feedback. We're pleased to confirm that this suggestion is planned and we appreciate your input as we continue to enhance our product.

Make turnings and exits more clear (Using arrows or different color)
I have missed an exit or taken the wrong exit multiple times with this app. I do not have this problem with google maps. It would be helpful if turnings could be made more prominent, using different colors or an arrow shown on the actual map.

Lane closure reports made easy
I'd like a report button that would indicate lane closures.
Could press to report the beginning of the lane closure, then press again to report the end.
Then you indicate whether it's the left, right, or center lane.

Waze has turned my little side street into a FUCKING FREEWAY. How do I get it to stop?
Do not direct traffic down residential side streets. They are ruining quiet communities.
