  3. Banner At Top of Screen

    It would be nice to have a banner at the top of the screen to make getting back to the Waze app easier. Google Maps does this.

  4. Suggested driving speed based on traffic

    Based on current driving conditions, the app would let you know how fast you should be going to keep traffic moving (i.e., if it was heavy traffic the app would recommend a speed of 10mph vs. moderate traffic with a recommended speed of 35mph). The feature would also suggest a lane you should be driving in, based on GPS speed, so drivers who prefer to go at a modest highway speed are in the middle or right lanes.

  5. Bring back old version

    I previously liked the Waze App, it was easy to read. Then you made everything a lot smaller and I can't use it because I can't see it. I am not the only one. Why did you change a good thing. Bring back the old version!

  6. Saving Lives Warning People in Brazil

    Hello Waze and Everyone! For the third time I heard a really sad story here in Brazil. First let me tell you: waze made a revolucion in how me and everyone moves around here. But the thing is that in Brazil we have a thing called favelas. Favelas are wood "homes" made by poor people because they dont have anywhere else to live. Favelas are very dangerou places, and once you get in you'll probably end up dead, just like how happened this weekend in Rio because a 70 year old couple end up going there via waze. They typed…

  7. Synchronize points and levels across all Waze servers

    Perhaps most Wazers won't realize this until they go on vacation but points earned in another country may not be added to your profile when you return home. Say you live in the UK and you go on a road trip in the US. When you run Waze for the first time in the US you will have zero points, and you will be relegated back to a baby Wazer. And nothing you earn while on that trip will be added to your profile back in the UK. This is a real dis-incentive to participate in sharing information. Please find…

  9. Áreas de Risco, postos de combustível e estacionamento

    Sugestão para:
    1-Permitir marcarmos área de risco. Vez ou outra o waze manda entrar em Comunidades e ruas perigosas;
    2-Na configuração disponibilizar "mostrar no
    Mapa", postos de combustível e estacionamentos.

    Sobre área de risco, essa semana uma atriz da globo teve o carro baleado com percurso numa área perigosa.

  10. Waze Application Shut Down Conflict

    On an iPhone -- there is a scroll up feature on the screen which allows access to several APPLE setting conditions. On the WAZE application, the SHUT-DOWN or TURN-OFF feature is near the proximity of the Apple SWIPE UP (screen) location. The CLOSE swipe should be located away from the Apple Swipe area.

  11. Spoken Turn-by-turn Directions (Bug Report)

    First, I don't think you could possibly make it more difficult for a user to report a bug that needs attention.

    Now, on to the problem. I run Waze on an iPhone 5s. Since I upgraded to iOS 9.3, the spoken turn-by-turn directions have become clipped or truncated. Previously, Waze would say, "In a quarter of a mile, turn left ..." Now, Waze says, "In a qu, turn left." This truncation or omission occurs on all directions that anticipate a turn, i.e., "in 1000 feet" or "in 500 feet" is now completely omitted. This results in the driver being directed…

  12. Make changes to the suggested route by touching the route I want on the map.

    Sometimes I want to make a specific change to the route by touching the map. For example; if I touch and hold a place on the map to signal that I want to go via this road instead of the suggested road, but still remain within the general route chosen.

  13. Stop alerting drivers to automated enforcement cameras.

    When you alert drivers to upcoming automated enforcement cameras, you defeat the purpose of this lifesaving technology. The purpose of the cameras is for drivers to receive a warning or a summons, and permanently alter their speeding or red light running behavior. By offering these alerts, Waze encourages drivers to continue driving recklessly. It is the most anti-social thing your company does.

  14. Voice guidance only sound option

    Allow users to disable alert sounds, but keep guidance instructions.

    I like voice guidance, especially when waze directs me to do something weird in an unfamiliar area to avoid traffic.

    I find all alert notifications extremely annoying, and do not use the app for that purpose. It would be nice to be able to disable the annoying sounds and keep the useful ones turned on.

  15. Arrows to change lanes

    it would be interesting to show the application in the phone display, arrows stating that he has to change lanes at one point to get into the next street, for example.

  16. Navigation to area instead of address ניווט לאיזור במקום לכתובת ספציפית

    Driving to an address to find nearby parking? Going to drop a passenger somewhere?

    When navigating to a specific address (current option) you won't always get the shortest way. For example the house you want to get to is just across the street from you- wayz can take navigate you to a U turn or worse.
    My suggestion- add on option "drive to area"- you put an address and radius (or make few radius options) and wayz will create the fastest way to that radius.

  18. Add a random voice option to keep things interesting on long trips

    On long trips, the same voice and sayings get old pretty quick. By adding a random voice option, it would be fun to hear what the next voice and saying is each time

  19. Use smart-band's vibrator to notify a danger zone

    Because I'm a motorcycle pilot, I need to be more focus on the road than any other vehicules.

    I just got a Xiaomi Mi Band which is a BLE health tracker.
    This BLE smart-band contains a vibrator and has libraries available for iOS and Android to communicate with (eg. vibration control).

    It would be just AWESOME if my smart-band could vibrate when I enter a danger zone. Like that I would not have to always take a risk by looking down on my phone while driving.

    A pattern could be defined for the vibrations. Like 3 vibrations = entering a…

  20. Bloquer quelqu'un

    il y a les amis et il y a certaines personnes que l'on aimerait pouvoir bloquer
    faire en sorte que cette personne ne nous envoie plus de demande d'amité,
    qu'elle ne puisse pas nous voir sur la carte et qu'elle n'ait accès à aucune information nous concernant.
