  2. Search for food on my way

    I want to see food that's ONLY in front of me an on my route. I don't care what's behind me. I want to search for Taco Bell and just see those ahead of me and close to my route. I'd also like to see all food ahead of me and close to my route. I NEVER care to turn around. That's against mans nature.

  3. Indicate both start and end of roadworks / traffic

    For users that mark the beginning or roadworks / traffic, leave up an icon that they can press to indicate the end of the traffic. From this, work out how long it took me to get through the zone and pass on the info to other users.

  4. Support event driven notitfications to zapier or ifttt

    It would be nice Waze could attach to other systems with events via for example zapier and/or ifttt. Events that I think of:

    Starts navigation to 'lat/lon' (bookmarkname)
    Arrives at destination
    Is in traffic
    Shares route
    Is 1 hours, half hour, 15 minutes, 10 minutes, 5 minutes away from its destination

    Logs drive (from/to, starttime/endtime, distance traveled, (compressed) gpx attached.

    This way everybody could easily make rules like

    log {all} journeys to a google spreadsheet.

    Or share my drive easily on facebook, twitter, etc.

    Or, when I go {home} between {16:00} and {19:00} share that drive with {spouse}.

    Or, when…

  5. An option to reduce the thickness size of streets and avenues!! Read the description to see examples!!

    This option would greatly help in cases where there are many nearby streets and avenues, and bridges above these streets and avenues, not allowing us to see clearly the way we should go, or if we must keep at right or left on the track.

    For example this screenshot:
    https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-fjkWYPuDEH8/U08lOa1x5qI/AAAAAAAADpY/NXKXb49hviI/w1080-h1920-no/Screenshot_2014-04-16-20-34-32.png

    ...and it gets worse when we are viewing in 3D mode (looks like a big yellow block), as the example of the same avenue:

    A smaller thickness for the avenues and streets could look like this examples (edited images):

  6. Add police alert on nearby roads

    If the alert (police, traffic jam) is not on the road Waze users are driving on, there is no way to indicate that. For example if I drive on a road that is near a highway and there is an accidant on the highway there is no way to report it.
    It would be nice to let users tap on the map to indicate the place of the alert. If no tap, it means that the place of the alert is the actual place.

  9. Volume Control On WP8 Not Useful

    I listen to podcasts while driving. The audio is coming out of the headphone socket.

    The Waze volume is excessively loud compared to the podcast, even if the volume control is close to zero.

    I suspect that the rule for the volume control is linear rather than logarithmic

  11. Integrate with Glympse!

    You offer Foursquare check-in which is great! http://glympse.com/ is a great app that I use often to show people I'm on the way. At any time, they can see where I am and what my ETA is (if destination is set). I see you have MEET UP, which shows current location or destination, but Glympse sends constant updates showing where you are. It's available in Garmin Street Pilot and Navigon now (http://www.glympse.com/partners)!

  12. Partnership with blablacar?

    Why not propose to blablacar users to program their trip and send it to waze account (and all planned stops), then the blablacar users can share their trip to their friends, they will be able to follow their trip through facebook (with the existing function).

  16. Plugins!

    Instead of competing against other products and services, why not allow them to be PART OF (feed info into) Waze? Plugins, if you will.

    Case in point: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOyhnwA6MQo

    Escort Live is a social driving program for people who use Passport Radars. Wouldn't it make more sense for everyone ("them" because they'd be able to enjoy Waze and its massive user database, and "us" because we'd get the real-time radar info?) if Escort Live was available inside Waze?

    Waze is great because it's so clean, so I understand not wanting to have other data services "clutter up" the experience, so perhaps…

  17. parking lot landmarks / traffic analysis

    I would like to see certain landmarks not count as traffic analysis. If an area is marked as a restaurant, parking lot, gas station, etc.. the time a waze client spends there should NOT count against traffic analysis. Wazers can't be expecte to turn their nav system on and off just to order a burger, or fill up the tank. In reality, a nav system should be as "hands off" as possible for the daily commute. start waze when you get in the car.. go on your trip, pull over at the gas station and leave waze running. go through…

  18. Add north south west east direction when reporting from iPhone

    Add preset when reporting anything to waze via iPhone to show which direction drivers will see the report. Accident. Police etc. This also should show in the text description of the report. Same lane or other can help and this may show on the map. But it's hard to tell exactly what lane it's in. Ie, car stopped on shoulder may look on map like it's northbound lane when it's really south. Add direction of travel preset similar to same lane button.

  19. Better iPad interface.

    The iPad interface is a bit cumbersome to use while driving. I find many of the buttons are too small. I have my iPad docked in a RAM mount next to the stick shift, so its right next to my shift hand.

    Different screens appear in different sizes (like the event selection screen is cut in half when reporting a hazard or similar).

    Also, display of speed and similar information in the lower right should be larger, much like the turn-by-turn directions in the lower left.
    I would also appreciate any prompt buttons to be larger. If the buttons could…

  20. Event alerts-"On Route" as a default

    I am tired of seeing like 22 event alerts (cops, traffic, etc.) while driving my inputed route. when I hit the red exclamation mark it takes me to them and then I can select "On Route" to find out which one's only apply to the way I'm going...why not make the "On Route" button the default instead of "Around Me"???
