state and US highway avoidance
Will Waze include State and US Highway avoidance some day? When I want to go somewhere on the bike I want to take all back roads.

Alternate routes color text
On the alternative routes page, on an Android phone, reading the best route information is difficult because the text and green background are bright. I would like you to improve the contrast, maybe changing the text to black.

Safest route
In addition to quickest route, display safest route, incorporating factors like street lights at night, bad potholes, and animal crossing (e.g. deer crossing during dawn and dusk, when deer are out).

Improved Automatic Re-Routing for Traffic Congestion in Waze
We would like to propose an enhancement to Waze's automatic re-routing feature to provide users with greater control and flexibility when navigating around traffic congestion.
Currently, Waze offers basic re-routing, but it lacks the ability to:
Prioritize surface streets or alternate highways/freeways: This would be particularly valuable for users who prefer avoiding congested highways altogether, even if it means a slightly longer route.
Define granular re-routing preferences: A binary on/off toggle is limiting. We propose options similar to existing route preferences (fastest/shortest) that allow users to:
Set time windows for re-routing: For example, automatically re-route during known rush hour periods.

Put locations at top of 'Where To' list at set time and day
I often do things same time each week. It would be great to have the option to set a time and a day for saved locations.
This would mean if I open Waze around 5:30pm on any Tuesday or Thursday, (this) item will start at the top of my 'Where To' list.
This feature would work best in conjunction with a 'Silent' option for each saved location. Since I go to certain places frequently, I already know how to get there.
Setting a Saved Location to 'Silent' would mean directions are only read aloud to the driver IF THEY DIFFER…

Routes
When using carplay with Iphone: in oorder to see all the routes, one need to click on the arrow and then a window opens with the initial route already offered, and the request to click again on the screen to see all the routes. The second click on the screen is completely unnecessary because it is clear that if I click the first time to see routes I would like to see all the options (usually 3 ). Maybe you can check its cancellation. Thank you

Reroute traffic from Penelope Avenue in Middle Village Queens
Avoid directing cars onto Penelope Avenue in Middle Village, Queens from Metropolitan Ave and Juniper Vally Blvd. The latter two streets are much better suited for high traffic volume, particularly during rush hour. When drivers are directed to Penelope by Waze, it creates backup as the street is not designed to accommodate the same amount of two way traffic, and has also increased traffic related incidents as a result.

Avoid 70mph Roads
When driving to a location on holiday I often try to AVOID motorways so the journey is more interesting and I pass through areas I haven't seen before. However, 70mph dual carriageways are NOT seen as a motorway, so sat navs (including Waze) with often navigate you onto one. Rather than choose AVOID motorways in settings, the option to "AVOID 70mph Roads" would be much better.

The “Leave at a later time” feature DOES NOT WORK
The “Leave at a later time” feature DOES NOT WORK. It DOES NOT save the destination, and DOES NOT alert me when it’s time to go. I don’t recall whether it ever did, but certainly never my iPhone 12 with iOS 16.x.x or (now) 17.1.1. Wish it did—it would be very convenient

waze travel
I guess all road travelers would like the following idea.
It won't be a bad idea if Waze adds an option or button called Waze Travel where the app suggests hotels Airbnb or camping areas for users when they have to travel for more than 8 hours so the distance can be cut in half.
for example if I am traveling from a country to another and I have more than 8h hours on the road it takes me time to divide the distance locate the road I am tacking and then find hotels around the area.
so that would…2 votes -

Remember driver's choice
If the driver intentionally misses a turn for a different route based on his knowledge of the area (e.g. slightly longer, but better quality road) for multiple times, Waze should remember his choice and for the next time navigate through this preferred route by default.

Plan a route that DOES NOT go through a specific location
There was this HUGE traffic jam on a specific road due to an accident. Despite that, Waze acted like it is not aware about this, and all of the computed routes went through this specific road. It would be great for Waze to either add a manual option to plan a route avoiding specific place, or to understand from driver's behavior, that he has no intention or option to drive through this place. Instead, for all three available routes, it kept forcing me to turn around and go directly to the traffic jam.

Posibility to add more than one waypoint on route
Posibility to add more than one waypoint as many times waze doesn't give route which I prefer. As I use it on regular drivings to see if there is Jam or not.

Signaler les événements exceptionnels sur une ville. Par exemple aujourd’hui Paris est fermé à la circulation entre 11 et 18 heures.
Il serait intéressant que les événements spéciaux soient pris en compte par Waze. Exemple: Paris fermé aux voitures entre 11 et 18 heures, je n’étais pas au courant, Waze non plus, résultat 2 heures dans des bouchons à tenter d’entrer dans la ville pour rien. Waze m’aurait annoncé cette fermeture, Je ne prenais pas ma voiture et je participais à Paris respire 🥳
