Fuel efficiency
It would be a neat feature if you can enter in your odometer reading, and gas volume purchased, and every gas up you could bring up your miles/gal (or km/l). You can also tie in with gas prices to get a $/mile. You can also include a stat on the amount of CO2 released per mile.

Hazard descriptions
I would like to see the hazard description when it pops up to alert me that one is coming soon. Currently, to see what kind of hazard it is, you have to find it on the road and click on the icon. Then you will know if it's a car on the side or something in the road, etc. The pop up alert should tell you what it is so you know what to expect.

Option to delete route
Please add an option to delete your route while keeping Waze running. Currently the only way to do this (Windows Mobile 2.0 version) is exit to Waze, restart it and quickly reply No to the resume question.

Flock camera NOT police
Please stop treating Flock Safety license-plate reader cameras like police/enforcement cameras.
Flock cameras are automated license-plate readers, not police officers running radar and not necessarily speed or red-light enforcement cameras. When Waze alerts drivers to every Flock camera as though it is an enforcement/police camera, the warnings become excessive and make the useful alerts less meaningful.
Please either remove Flock/ALPR cameras from enforcement alerts or create a separate ALPR category that users can turn off independently.
And YES — give me police ahead. Give me speed trap. Give me red-light camera. I do not need Waze yelling at me every…

I have a Mazda CX 30 and i have noticed that only Apple Maps can deliver HUD directions, i use only Waze but this does not have this option, is this a Waze issue or Carplay refuses to deliver HUD directions from Waze?

User Report: option to share destination
Editors often receive User Reports (URs) categorized as “map issue” that actually refer to problems with the route suggested by Waze to the destination.
However, editors currently have no way of knowing which destination the user entered in the app, which makes it difficult - and sometimes impossible - to properly analyze the reported issue.
I fully understand the privacy concerns involved. Still, I suggest offering users, on an optional basis, the ability to share their destination when submitting a UR, especially in cases related to “incorrect address” or “incorrect instructions.”
This would allow editors to investigate issues much more…

Speed camera alert distance
It would be very useful to be able to increase the distance at which speed camera alerts are triggered. Currently they are way too short (too little notice) - speed cameras can now detect cars at a significant distance away, and multiple times I've had the alert triggered only after I could see the camera and it could see me (usually on a motorway bridge).

Waze truck
Hello. Waze could implement a GPS feature for trucks, such as restricted areas, rotations, roads that have space for long trucks like trailers. I believe this feature would help thousands of truck drivers like me.

Add missing public EV charger networks (here for Belgium)
For Belgium, I noted a few major players of EV charging stations are missing in the EV charger list. Like Sparki, Optimile, Electra. Also smaller ones , like EnergyVision , novoeco , Porsche Connect , Road BV , Volvo Charging , ...
As this is a dynamic world (and I expect further consolidation etc), it would be great to link your database to a reliable online source / catalog(s) of EV chargers / speed chargers.
And I indeed believe it makes sense to show them per country, it would be great if I could select the relevant networks of other…16 votes -
Show if a result search is Waze place or Google Maps place
Show if a result search is Waze place or Google Maps place. Sometimes we search a place and shows first the google maps result and in the end of the list the Waze place result. Maybe a G and the Waze symbol instead the pin on results list would be better to know what is what.

Battery Saver always on
Option to have battery saver always-on by default. It's a poor user experience to have to set this manually for EVERY journey for those that want to have the battery as high as practitable before exiting the car and/or save their OLED screens from burning. Not everyone uses a charger in the car. And most phones use OLED screens.
'Automatically turn on' is there as an option, but it waits for battery to become low before kicking in, which rather defeats the object of saving battery (it's too late if it's already become low!) and meanwile you risk burning the…

width
I've been using Waze for numerous years now. Any option of caravan and trailer specifications to prevent narrow, unsuitable roads? I would be more than happy to pay a subscription as the maps are great.

Trucker Version
Develop a trucker setting, or perhaps an entirely separate 'Trucker Waze' app for those of us running larger vehicles. We need to know about low clearance overpasses/bridges, narrow lanes and one lane bridges, weight restrictions, etc. For example, I pull oversized trailers up and down the East Coast (USA). I am 14'6" high, and 10'6" wide. You could even buy Trucker Path and add all the Waze functionality...

Speed trap
Speed trap notification should ALWAYS sound. If you are not over the speed limit, you risk accelerating before the trap and getting a fine.
Other alerts sound at any circumstance. At least, give the option to activate always on notificatios for speed traps.16 votes
