Add Support for Mopeds, Bicycles & Moped Speed Checks (Known as Rollerbanks)
I suggest adding support for mopeds and bicycles as selectable vehicle types in Waze, allowing users to receive more accurate routes tailored to bike lanes and moped-accessible roads. Additionally, introducing a report option for roadside speed checks specific to mopeds (commonly known as "rollerbanks" in some regions) would greatly benefit two-wheeler users by improving route awareness and promoting fair, transparent traffic monitoring.

Waze for Trucking
We should have the option to input our clearance height and weight restriction to avoid routes that we can’t navigate. When the gps sends us down a wrong street with bridges with weight restrictions or towards an overpass with low clearance, it’s hard to find a turnaround point. Restricted points can be easily sourced through driver submissions to verify information in that area. There’s been plenty of times that I finish my route and the trucking app we used will automatically kick me out to where I can’t navigate using a predetermined GPS, so I opt to use Waze, but…

Google Maps to Waze routing
With a recent update we can now look up items over in Google Maps and share it to Waze. A feature I am requesting is when we look at the routes that Google Maps gives us, if we hit share from one of the selected routes, we be able to bring that to Waze direct.
I know that Maps and Waze routes differently. Having that Maps over is nice but I'd like to pick a route there and navigate with Waze.

Road block notification and subsequent re route
When faced with a blocked road there is no way to reroute because whatever route you take initially it will try to take you back to the blocked road and this is very frustrating

Lane guidance interface
Hi, I have a suggestion to improve lane guidance in Waze.
Currently, when a turn is coming up (e.g., turn right), Waze shows which lanes can be used (e.g., both right lanes). But sometimes, right after that turn, the driver needs to make another move (e.g., a left turn).
In those cases, it would be helpful if Waze still showed the usable lanes, but highlighted the most optimal one for the next maneuver. For example, use a slightly different shade (like a darker green) to indicate that staying in the left of the two right lanes will make the next…

Common hotspots for speed camera vans/ speed traps
To have common hotspots for speed vans or speed traps added to the map. This would allow users to be aware of common spots for speed camera vans. Yes shouls be doing the speed limit but at the same time we all go over from time to time especially areas we may not no or the change speed limits.

Roundabout
A few updates back, when editing roundabouts instructions, the forced TTS available for edition when changing to Turn Left or Turn Right changed from "on the roundabout turn left" & "on the roundabout turn right" to "in 50 meters turn left" & "in 50 meters turn right", leaving left off the information "on the roundabout".
Could you consider improving that information for TTS "lovers" or "needers" and add again "on the roundabout" TTS to the string?
Thank you

Manually set Speeds for different vehicle setups
I use Waze to drive a jeep, jeep & trailer, bus and trucks.
Legally towing, bus & truck must travel at lower speeds in the cars and jeeps.
It would be really helpful if we could:
1) create different vehicle profiles for the same driver and switch between them.
2) Have the option to be able to manually input the max speeds for vehicle profile eg National roads in Ireland are 80km for bus, truck and towing and 100km for bus and 90km for truck and towing on motorways. This would be more for calculating journey times than speed warnings…

Add Timestamp to Police Reports
It would be helpful if police alerts showed how long ago they were reported (e.g. “Police reported 8 min ago”). This gives drivers better context on whether the report is still likely to be accurate.

Make ETA and Remaining Time always visible when using Android Auto
Some alerts are shown over the ETA and remaining time box.
For me it is more important to have the ETA and remaining time always visible than receiving some of these alerts.
Maybe the ETA box could squeeze to the bottom of the screen when the alerts are shown.
It is very practical to have this information always visible when receiving a call or checking if it is possible to wait to use a better bathroom ahead on the road.4 votes -
Location of the Speed Limit and Speed on Android Auto
For Australian users, I would like to see the Speed Limit and Speedometer shown on the left of the map. This is because it is covered by our left hand when holding the steering wheel, because the driver sits on the right hand side of the vehicle. I cannot see either the speed limit or speedometer without moving my hand off the wheel.

UI Problem: Speed camera\police alert covers the speed limit
I was using Waze in horizontal mode last night - the speed limit and my current speed were displayed near the bottom of the screen in the middle horizontally. I noticed that when alerts such as Police ahead or Speed Camera in x feet were displayed the notification box covers key bits of the screen such as your current speed, the speed limit and your precise location.
I think either the UI needs to shift up when the alerts are displayed, or the alert box needs to be constrained to one side of the screen.
I did take a screen…

Don’t change the route automatically during trip navigation
I don’t want Waze to change the route automatically without my permission after I chose at the beginning. It happens I choose a ruote and then, just for avoiding few minutes of traffic, I have to pay more highway and more fuel for longer route. I want Waze ask for me permission to change, despite a simple pop up “better route found” in which I can only choose yes, and if I don’t reply yes (of course I m driving) Waze change it automatically. Please make a pop up where if I dont say “yes change route” the route is…

The inability to repeat directions is a major flaw of Waze.
A button for repeating directions is critical. Please revise the software.

Reduce height of Warnings bar
Using Waze landscape on Android speed camera warnings etc cover up speed indicator, could be half the height, very frustrating and turned off all the warnings.
