  1. Road Avoidance

    A way to tell Waze to avoid certain roads in the app, similar to tolls etc. but any road of my choosing.
    I sometimes drive vehicles that can’t go down some roads and it would be really useful to be able to tell the app to never navigate me down roads I tell it not too.

  2. Add "HIGHWAY FIRST" to route preference

    When there are several routes available, I've noticed that Waze may calculate a route that combines both ground roads and highways. This is done to save a little time or reduce toll fees but can result in entering the highway from a distant entrance or exiting the highway too early. This approach leads to more instances of entering and exiting, as well as increased interactions with other drivers, which is unnecessary and more dangerous.

    I suggest implementing a "HIGHWAY FIRST" preference. When a highway is available, the system should calculate a route that prioritizes the use of highways, even if…

  3. Improving on route and more functions.

    I been using waze daily for work as uber driver. There is time can be annoying when waze divert me to another route which is less traffic and mileage is far than origin route. This may cause additional cost on the fare and some riders may not feel comfortable if any route change. My suggestion to waze is have a option for waze as below:-

    1) Option to ignore traffic jams so we can maintain current route without any diversion to other route. Let waze user to choose to stuck in traffic or find alternative route. :)

    2) Option to…

  5. Suggest a faster route with Vignettes/passes

    This happens very often: You plan a trip. It should take e.g. 12 hours using highways.

    Then you open Waze and forget to add the pass/Vignette. The Waze offers you a route. You glance at it and don't see it is taking back roads on the overview, so you accept it and start driving...

    After 10/12 hours you realize you are only halfway there and you won't arrive to your accomodation on time (happens more than you'd think)... what happened? Waze didn't prompt you to add the pass/Vignette for a faster route.

    Yes, I have the option to offer the…

    Hey, 

    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.

    We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

    Thanks!

  6. Avoid paid routes

    In one of previous versions of waze was option "avoid paid routes" which was replaced by an "avoid highway". We would Like to opportunity for return "avoid paid routes" option. Because, for example here in Slovakia, we have so-called "bypasses" - highways around large cities, which are part of highways but are not tolled.

  7. Insert the complete destination location above the data of missing kilometers

    Che ne pensate di chiedere waze di inserire queste due piccole indicazioni nella schermata dai il navigatore.
    1) Inserire la località di destinazione completa sopra ai dati di chilometri mancanti e tempo mancante per raggiungere la meta in pratica la meta non è più visibile dopo averla inserita se non riducendo la schermata in cerca del punto d’arrivo.
    2) Inserire un’icona rapida che consente velocemente di scegliere il tipo di percorso cioè se strade con pedaggio autostrade strade bianche traghetti eccetera.
    3) Inserire l’icona dell’automobile o del pedone in base alla scelta fatta in precedenza

  9. Restricted area

    Much like being asked if it's okay to travel on a route with tolls. There should be an option or a prompt to ask about driving through a restricted area/military base on your route. I used Waze the other day to find a post office and it took my right to a security check point of a military base. Would have been nice to know that's where the app was taking me.

  10. Emergency Route Mode

    "Emergency Route Mode" – a new Waze feature that instantly calculates the fastest route in urgent situations, bypassing all preferences (tolls, traffic, dirt roads, rural routes, highways, etc.). It builds user trust in real time, strengthens brand loyalty, and opens strong monetization channels via smart emergency ads, premium upgrades, and city partnerships.

  11. Safety and crime based routes and reporting

    Waze should introduce a feature that allows users to report unsafe or crime-prone roads—especially relevant in high-risk areas like South Africa. Based on personal experience, Waze has sometimes routed users through dangerous neighborhoods, which can be especially hazardous for tourists or those unfamiliar with the area.

    This feature should allow users to flag roads where recent crime has occurred or where safety is a concern. These reports could be time-stamped and reviewed by the community, similar to how speed traps or traffic accidents are currently handled.

    In addition, Waze should add a toggle in the app’s navigation settings—like those for…

  12. Put the avoid freeways option on the route page. Stop hiding it.

    Avoid Freeways option needs to be moved to the routes page. Make it as easy for us to change as the avoid tolls is.

    Right now you have it buried and it takes a few clicks to get to it. And we all know that Waze does not give alternative routes UNLESS Avoid Freeways is turn off.

  14. crucial alerts should be more informative and different from normal ones

    Please inform user about Vignette condition and effect on the routes (in Switzerland)!

    I am an avid fan and frequent user of waze. literally anywhere and anytime I am planning a route I use waze, and I always suggest and inform people about its benefits. But Yesterday we had a very bad experience using it.
    Our trip was from Vaduz to Grindelwald (Switzerland)
    Waze always alarms about C- Zones, Toll roads at the beginning of choosing the route, ... and it did the same about vignette but the confusing thing is that it did not say that we have to…

  15. Quality of road surface w/ permanence

    Allow users to report the quality of the road surface (beyond the occasion pothole / object in the road). A crowd sourced critique of how smooth/good the road surface is that has “permanence”. Like construction notices, when planning routes out of town, this could help drivers avoid bad sections of Interstate/ State routes. Add this category to reporting button so drivers can share their assessment, recheck every mile (“still a road quality of rough?) once a driver flags the road surface as poor / rough / bumpy / etc. Not to be alerted, but to be used in route planning…

    Life-threatening routing in South Africa – urgent safety issue
    I am reporting a serious and ongoing safety problem with Waze routing in South Africa.
    Waze repeatedly routes users through extremely dangerous areas and known hijacking hotspots in order to save only a few minutes of travel time. This has placed myself, my family members, and many others into life-threatening situations, including multiple attempted hijackings.
    This is not hypothetical. There is documented precedent of fatal incidents caused by GPS routing into unsafe areas in South Africa, including the widely reported case of an elderly couple murdered in Cape Town after following…

  20. Tip drivers for Police sightings

    Allow me to tip drivers that post a police sighting, potentially saving me from a ticket. I’d give $0.50 every time I passed a police officer that was noted by another driver. I see the report that says “you helped this many people” give them the option to tip so I can pay for coffee and tolls on the road.
