Use Waze to help fight traffic by including tips encouraging the Zipper Merge (merging every other car), not rubber necking, etc.
It seems like a lot of people don't know how to merge. So you're forced to wait for a gap or force your way into a lane. Waze could be very helpful to build better driving habits. These tips could be sent via message or when the app is opened.

On this waze version, a new icon ( add friends...) located on the close to bottom right of the screen partially hides the speed meter.
Either get rid of this almost useless icon or at least move it up in such a way it does not overlap the speed indicator

Reporting of traffic jams in filter lanes or turning lanes
Hi, many times while driving on the highway I would pass a filter lane or turning lane at a traffic light that is extremely long. I would like to be able to report this so other users who might be coming up to the turning lane would know its present status and can decide if they want to continue there or go to another turn off. Currently, I can only flag whether there is traffic on the "main road" that I am traveling on.

Don't inundate me with popups on startup. . . EVER
I'm happy for you that you're updating your app, but PLEASE STOP throwing popups at me when I start the app afterward. That will only do three things: 1. Piss me off. 2. Endanger my safety and the safety of others during the most dangerous time of driving (pulling out of a parking spot/driveway) with the distractions. 3. Ensure that I never actually see the information you're trying to get me to see.
Please. Use common sense. Don't do this.

Option to say "not here" for traffic and construction.
Wake feed alerts seem to be old and inaccurate with no way to clear or report completed. Allow drives to vote construction and traffic reports off the map

Suggest the "Major Accident" icon be outlined in red to stand out
Suggest the "Major Accident" icon be outlined in red to stand out. There currently is no differentiation between a minor accident and a major accident. Since a major accident can significantly affect your driving time (avoiding the resulting traffic jam) where a minor accident (fender bender on the side of the road) won't, it is important to differentiate. Suggest a bold red outline on the icon.

add a note
Would be nice if it would be possible to add map notes, maybe visible only to the user who created it.

positions of reported locations are too far down the road, probably due to entry time. Suggest capture location on first screen touch
Add feature to disable audible directions but keep audible alerts. Directions when I know the way are annoying.

Reduce FPS and disable animations to save battery
Some navigation apps save battery by refreshing less often, except around instructions points (ie. turns, exits, etc.). When the user is supposed to simply follow the road for a long time, the refresh rate could be as low as once every 5 seconds.
Waze could also offer an option to disable transition effects (smooth rotation around current position, streets fade in and out, menu animations, etc.).

How about moving the "add friends" icon so that it doesn't cover the speedometer display?
Either move the add friends icon to another part of the display, or make it an option to shut it off. Covering the speedometer makes it totally useless.

Allow update of gas prices to 3 decimals
It is a mistake to assume that all gas prices end in 9/10. Gas in Canada is sold not in dollars, but in cents. For example, gas may be listed at 124.9. Wazers can correctly update it to 1.249. But if that price is 125.0, the closest it can be updated to is 124.9. Another Wazer may see that as incorrect and change it to 125.9 It is not at all uncommon to find gas with prices ending in .4, .5, even .0.
I have witnessed long lineups at competing pumps where one station is charging 3/10 of a cent…2 votes
