  1. Lock the route

    Once WAZE sets the initial route, let me press a button to lock the directions so they don't change while I'm en route. Often if I'm driving on a freeway (in LA) I will get random instructions to "make a U-turn (on the 405?)" or to turn on some surface street. I assume its because the app is re-calculating as I go or doesn't recognize that I did take the correct off-ramp, but these unnecessary commands are distracting and its hard to tell which are valid and which are not. Obviously if I DO make a mistake in following the…

  2. Let ignore users who spam a lot of fake alert

    Let's block people who usually take signs with fake alerts. I wish a personal, editable black list to collect bad guys and avoid me from their fake alerts. Thanks!

  3. Filter search results by whether a business is open

    Google Maps allows filtering of search results by whether the business is open or not; Waze should have feature parity.

  5. Passive Police Notification

    If Waze requires passive information from users, would it be possible to get a police reported notification any time, not just when within the app?

  7. Improve display for alternate routs

    When alternate routs are displayed, the route description is displayed in small, grey, hard to read font. A larger and darker font would help.
    This option of alternate routs is useful during drive to conclude if a suggested "exotic" route really save significant time.

  12. Allow routing to avoid defined zones on map (bad neighborhoods, long term construction, etc)

    Lots of people have suggested that Waze have an option to avoid "bad neighborhoods" or other areas for other reasons, but I understand that it would be very difficult for Waze to do that automatically. For a given city, you usually have to be a local resident to know that you should avoid a certain area in your daily commute.

    So, give each user the option to define avoidance zones in our apps. That way, Waze is not responsible for making that determination, the individual users do it. It could be just a simple polygon drawing function, with a checkbox…

  13. Please add/return the Separation Line on two-way roads

    It helps wazers to arrive on correct side of road.
    Give the correct route, without need to duplicate roads...

    Other option can be using the NUMBERS (houses) of roads to decide what is the correct way/side should be used...

  14. Be able to dismiss the traffic alert when traffic is gone

    It happens often to drive through roads where traffic alerts have been reported but gone at the time of driving there. It would be useful to be able to dismiss the traffic reports

  15. Indicar las Ferias Libres

    En muchas ciudades se instalan ferias libres (venta de frutas y verduras) en la calle. Cuentan con autorización y un calendario establecido. Pido que se avisen en Waze para mejorar la navegación y evitar las calles bloqueadas por las ferias.

  19. Referente aos ícones de navegação e alertas

    Boa tarde... Então galera, poderia ver a possibilidade de colocar no sistema um botão para poder aumentar os ícones do aplicativo. Digo o pq? Eu tenho do dedo grande e largo então os ícones esta muito pequeno e ate o velocímetro acho que se colocar uma função tipo Tamanho: Pequeno, Médio e Grande para a gente ficaria ótimo pois poderíamos adicionar o correto. Eu uso um Tablet de 7" com a tela 1024x600 onde o ícone fica pequeno eu tenho no meu celular Note 4 e o ícone fica ate bom, se possível melhorar a sensibilidade do toque nos botoes…
