  1. Similar ETA

    Google maps will show you routes with a similar ETA right on the map. It would be great if Waze showed this too.

  2. Adding report options "Oil Trace" and "Lane Closed" for Germany

    I've seen that in Hungary there's the option to report at least a Closed Lane. This is also relevant for Germany. For example a closed lane on a relatively well known route of a driver could be dangerous. He's expecting a certain amount of lanes but doesn't know the newest conditions on road.
    So please enable this option for drivers in Germany.

    The "Oil Trace" report could be helpful as well. Often such reports are mentioned in the radio. It would be a step forward to more safety in Germany and the rest of the world to add this kind…

  3. Rain mode / mode pluie

    Bonjour
    Je suggère une amélioration pour waze.

    Un mode pluie !
    Je m'explique
    La législation est claire (OK surtout en France je ne sais pas chez nos voisins européens ou même outre atlantique) avec un abaissement de la vitesse de 20kmh sur autoroute limitée à 130 et de 10km sur rocades ou autoroutes limitées à 110.

    Le développement d'un mode pluie avec un "bouton" pluie sur l'affichage principal du guidage ainsi qu'un e suggestion de passer en mode pluie si des alertes météo sont détectées dans le secteur traversé pourraient ajuster le temps de parcours à la réalité du terrain.

  4. Suggestion: Can we get an auto-reroute or a stalled traffic ahead alert?

    Couple of years ago I was headed home from a 6 hr trip with a 98 yr old man riding shotgun. I was less than 20 miles from home and ran up on a traffic jam on the interstate that added another 3 hrs to my trip.......an auto-reroute would have helped a lot

  5. Put the speedometer back to black numberson a white background.

    Why can't you people leave a good thing alone. I don't need you to tell me what the speed limit is. Making the display black on red is too hard to read, day or night. I know how fast I'm going. I hate Waze now.
    SIMPLICITY PLEASE.

  6. show song playing while navigating using Android Auto

    While using Waze on android Auto I would like to see what is currently playing, when using spotify or even on infotainment (Radio, XM, Ect.) There is a nice open spot at the top of the screen that could be used to display this info. I know that there is a quick popup when i change songs but would like the ability to display permanently.

  7. Multi-day future planned routes + Weather condition integration & notifications coinciding with future route planning

    It would be helpful if Waze allowed for planned routes that are regularly occurring to be set e.g. (Mon-Fri 8am-5pm). As well as a notification if there are any weather conditions that may affect that planned commute. If so, a general recommendation of what time to leave to allow for possible traffic build up in order to arrive on time. Essentially it would require weather integration, possibly AccuWeather.

  8. Bigger buttons for CarPlay

    Car Play - instead of tiny buttons and lines for the report an issue, bigger touch targets would be good. Instead of a scrolling list, a grid with taller, more square touch targets would be good

  9. Add a "hazard" or lone category to report panhandling

    Can we add a feature to report panhandling at corners to other drivers? There are a ton of aggressive panhandlers and reporting them will allow people to take precautions because I've seen many lash out at drivers who do not give.

  10. prioritize search results in the direction of travel.

    When traveling long road trips, it there some way to prioritize searches only in the direction of travel? In the current setup When looking for restaurants, or shopping, it never fails, Waze is constantly trying to send me backwards 5, 10 or 20 miles behind me to get to something, I would prefer to have it only look ahead, even if its 40 or 50 miles ahead of me along my travel route, and not have to turn around and go back 10 miles for a business. Or at least give me the option to prioritize the business ahead of…

  11. CarPlay directions box option to hide?

    Firstly might be useful to a CarPlay area in drop down box above?

    As you can have directions listed on your iPhone whilst using CarPlay / you might know the basic route it would be great to be able to optionally hide the Directions box as it takes so much map real estate. Or maybe move to top left. It always seems top right is where I am going....

  12. Accident Tracking - High Risk Areas

    Use reports by fellow Wazers to track and show areas on the map where multiple accidents have been reported so as to indicate them as "high risk areas" where drivers should be extra cautious. There are a variety of reasons that accidents and wrecks occur but after tracking them for some time, trends could easily be seen and indicated on any device.

  15. Historic Markers - Option to listen to the text of nearby markers

    As a Waze user, I would like the ability to enable an option to display and/or listen to the text of nearby Historic Markers so that I can learn about historic places during my travels. Many times there is no place to pull over and read historic markers.

  16. Waze protect people on road

    Hello my idea could safe people's life and make some extra profit for Waze.

    Imagine you are cyclist, runner, wolker or group of cyclist with kids or etc.
    You open Waze app choose ''protect mode'' option and select who you are. Then everyone who will driving on the same road will have an alert to slow down because you are ahead.

    I know that almost every new car has safety systems, but no one can see behind the corner.

    Waze can sell and provide these live data to other companies like Volvo, Mercedes, Audi, BMW and they can implement them…

  17. How to increase pedestrians and cyclists safety

    How to increase pedestrians and cyclists safety
    By defining new Waze modes of operation, the central computer could get the location of any pedestrian or cyclist connected to the Waze application.
    The following safety features could be specially helpful when the weather is misty or rainy:
    The central computer could derive that a pedestrian is crossing a wide road and could inform the near by vehicle drivers. As a result the driver will slow down.
    When driving on a narrow road, any car driver could be warned that he is approaching of a walking pedestrian or of a bicycle rider…

  19. Electrical Map in Puerto Rico will attract millions users

    Adding and Electrical Map, will give Waze a millions of users!
    Since Hurricane Maria, hundreds of roads and bridges where destroyed, signs that does not exist anymore, and roads with a mile of holes. Lately it is so dificult to drive on some roads. Specially those without electricuty jet, 7 month later of hurricane Maria.
    Letting people tag place without electricity, not only give the driver the alert, but will atract a thousand, even million ppl in the island, to repport their house or street.
    Also with a so worldwide use app, will make pressure on local agencies to accelerate…

  20. Zoom - integrated car displays (Android Auto)

    The zoom functionality is awful currently when using Android Auto with an in-car display. Google maps allows easy zooming using the rotatable knob (identical and in line with volume on a VW). Can this become a feature for Waze?? It's so distracting and dangerous trying to zoom when driving, a quick turn either way (like Google maps has) will be much better.
