I can’t imagine that I’m the first to suggest this, but it would be helpful to be able to have directions repeated. I
Is there a way of doing this already? Is there a reason that this hasn’t been done already?

Alternating Traffic
Could you create an icon to report alternating traffic during roadworks, using traffic lights?
Because everyone uses your icon for traffic lights that are out of order, even though that hardly ever happens...
Ideally, you should create a new, more descriptive one, as it would be used all the time.2 votes -
Construction Flagger / Pilot Car
Add a user-reporting option for “Flagger / Pilot Car” to notify drivers of temporary traffic control on active construction zones. This alert would indicate the presence of flaggers directing traffic or pilot cars leading vehicles through one-lane or restricted sections of roadway.

Increase notification for destination
The first time I used waze I completely missed my destination. Im used to my old map app zooming in and notifying me if I have missed it. Waze just assumes you have arrived and so I was lost after I missed my destination. There was also no notification to turn, it just assumed where I was going was in the middle of the road, with no sound to let me know when I have arrived and if the directions had worked. This makes the app unusable for me as rural areas sometimes houses and places are very hidden!

Opciones "Sin tráfico" y "Transitar con precaución"
Me gustaría que hubiera la opción de "Sin tráfico" para los casos donde el trancon terminó y pues ya no hay tráfico.
Además de la opción "Transitar con precaución" para zonas que pueden ser peligrosas para el vehículo y las personas.2 votes -
Speed limit indicator
Change the colour of the 'proportion of speed limit' indicator line from grey to green which would make it easier to read at a glance and mean less time looking away from the road - especially useful in built up areas where it's sometimes not clear whether the limit is 20mph or 30mph

Lack of Context in Rerouting: Security Risks and User Autonomy
The current Waze algorithm often reroutes users on long-distance trips without providing the underlying reason (e.g., specific accidents, road closures, or incremental traffic). While this "silent optimization" might work for short urban commutes, it represents a significant strategic failure for long-haul navigation for the following reasons:
Safety vs. Efficiency: By prioritizing the ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) above all else, the app frequently diverts drivers from well-monitored, high-infrastructure highways to poorly maintained or dangerous secondary roads to save a negligible amount of time. Without knowing why the route was changed, the driver cannot assess if the time-saving is worth the…2 votes -

Improve motorcycle mode and route suggestions
It’s great that Waze has a dedicated motorcycle mode. However it does not feel like a dedicated mode. We get the same road suggestions as with a car. A motorcycle can move fast through smaller roads and not be stuck in traffic. If I choose avoid motorways, I may miss a part that would be better done there. Moreover, proposals and ETA are impacted by lane splitting. But this does not always work or is allowed, so it should not be taken on board. And on the interface side, you still need to push buttons - there is not great…

Button Layout
This isn’t a new feature, but a slight change to an existing feature. When I am driving and I get alerts for a vehicle on the side of the road or police ahead I get two long horizontal buttons to report if it’s still there or not. I believe these buttons would be easier for drivers to touch if they were side-by-side as they would be more square and still utilizing the same screen real estate. Many times, I press the wrong one because the horizontal buttons are too narrow.

I need a good Female English (Ireland) voice. Male voice? How about Ethan Peck, who plays Spock on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds?

Speedometer Alarm Customization
Hi, the main reason I found and installed Waze was to help manage my speed on long trips. As others have mentioned in the past, the alarm is somewhat subtle and short, which reduces its effectiveness. I would encourage you to add several styles of alarm for someone to choose from, and/or an option to keep the alarm on or beeping until under the desired speed threshold. I'm envisioning something like a seatbelt alarm, because those are very effective!
Thanks for your consideration!

Road closure zoom UI interface
Reporting road closure should cause the app to zoom in slightly when roads overlap or are bunched together; there's less distraction and more precision. Leading on from that, there should be a mode to allow multiple inputs without getting locked out when reporting closed roads along a route. I got lost one early morning around 3AM and those features would've been a massive help.

Feature request: Improved lane guidance in instrument cluster / HUD
I’m using Waze on a BMW 420 (2025, G26), and I’ve noticed a limitation when displaying navigation in the instrument cluster.
When approaching exits or roads with multiple gradual splits, the arrow indicates the direction, but it doesn’t clearly show which lane or side to keep. This makes it difficult to follow navigation using only the cockpit display.
On the main screen, lane guidance is much clearer — it shows multiple lanes and highlights exactly which one to take (e.g., far-left lane). This is very helpful and improves driving confidence.
It would be great to have the same lane-level guidance…

Product Gap
Limiting routes to only one stop is a major usability gap—most navigation apps support multiple stops, and this is a basic expectation, especially for Android Auto users.
Also, the inability to edit destinations after adding a stop and the lack of address visibility for saved contacts are functional limitations, not feature requests.
This impacts real-world usage like errands, deliveries, or multi-stop trips. It reduces Waze’s practicality compared to competitors.
Please confirm if these are actively being worked on or planned. Redirecting to the suggestion box doesn’t resolve the current usability problems.

multicolor traject controlled side bar
The side bar appearing when you are in a speed controlled zone (traject control) is always green. If the average speed of this zone is 70 can the app constantly calculate your speed and keep the bar green when you are in this average speed but turn yellow when you reach 70 and red when you cross the average speed (71-up) so you know you need to slow down to stay on the average speed, or you have room to speed up a little when you had to stop for any reason without overspeeding the average speed.

Véhicule arrêté
Bonjour
Des véhicules garés (comme les camions) sur des bandes d'arrêt d'urgence très larges ( sont sur un de mes trajets réguliers)
ces véhicules ne gênent en rien la circulation ni l'arrêt d'un autre véhicule en urgence pourtant la notification ne differencie pas le caractère dangereux
Je n'y prete plus attention résultat l'autre jour un véhicule arrêté en partie sur la voie de droite m'a dérangé
Il faudrait créer 2 types de notification pour signifier le caractère dangereux ou non.2 votes
