  1. Map issue since the update

    Hello Waze Developers,

    I wanted to share some feedback regarding the Map interface that has been changed since the last update.

    I use Waze in horizontal mode in my car, and I’ve noticed that I am no longer able to see my speed when there’s an alert. Previously, the speed bubble was on the left side and, even when an alert appeared, the bubble remained above it.

    Now that the bubble is positioned in the middle, it seems that when an alert appears, it covers the speed, making it difficult to view. Would it be possible for the speed bubble…

  2. Ride share directly from car's screen

    Great app! One thing you should consider to add, a functionality to share your ride directly form car’s screen (CarPlay in this case); is very off hand to start a ride and if you want to share it with someone, you have to go back to your phone to do so.

  3. Allow user to report a road closure

    The slip road we needed to go on had been closed but Waze didn’t know about it. Then no matter what you keep getting redirected. It would be good to click on the part of the route that is closed in order to report, as you have to drive past to a safe spot to try find a better route.

  4. Make current speed, speed limits and warnings the largest images on the CarPlay phone companion screen

    Rather than next turns or route events shown on your phone screen when the maps are pushed to a CarPlay screen, can we have a large view of current speed, speed limits and upcoming road warnings instead (or as a third view option)?

  6. Reporting offensive comment or possible scam in map chat

    I have been noticing possible scammer on the map chat for months now. The strategy has always been the same- reports heavy traffic and posted comments asking people for money (if the traffic is 20km long, you’ll see multiple traffic reports and comments from the same account all the way!). There has been instances where I encountered people cussing and giving offensive remarks on the map chat as well.

    It is frustrating seeing them on the map. I hope the team can do something about this.

  7. Offline notification timeout

    Can the offline notification message timeout automatically, please? It obscures way too much of the screen essentially stopping functionality of the app, and it won't go away automatically when network connection is resumed.

    Using my phone on my motorcycle I cannot reliably touch the screen with gloves on to acknowledge the message. So after a however brief cell signal dead zone I get no useful navigation until I pull over, stop, take my gloves off, and press the ok button. Even an hour later this message stays blocking the screen despite point having lost signal only momentarily.

  8. Reporting counterflow option

    Currently there is a report for road works, and there are options for closure of right, left or center lane . But there are no options for a counterflow situation on the motorway, eg where northbound traffic is led onto the southbound road half and users face oncoming traffic

  9. Add the Traffic Light time to green and recommended speed to avoid red lights capability for cities that have this info. Time to red is also

    Utilize data from cities that have traffic light info available.

    Calculate red light timing where this data from cities are not yet available. Bu using existing Wyze traffic data at high traffic red light intersections you can provide most of this valuable info directly.

    With this data on directions map display:

    • Show time to red ( useful for red light cams and avoid accidents)
    • Show Time to green
    • Show ideal speed to minimize red lights

  10. Make fully customizable alerts

    You guys should make the alerts customizable. For example, I want to get the app to make a sound when I'm approaching a speed camera or something while above the speed limit. Now, if I set the sound as "Alerts" it only makes a sound when there's a speed bump which is useless because there are 6 street signs before every bump! Make a big list of all possible alerts and allow the user to choose what they want to define as alert deserving stuff

    Is there a way to turn off the announcement that there is a railroad crossing? I'm sure some are like me and think it's an unnecessary announcement

  12. Add the number of upcoming turns before your next instruction

    For example, if your next turn is a left in 300 meters, and there are 2 other left turns before that one, the number '3' should appear in the black banner at the top (where it currently says 'Turn left in 300 meters')

  13. Using back button & walking/cycling

    When Waze comes up with several route options and I choose one, then I decide to go back and view the alternate route, it won't let me. This would be a goid option to have. I also miss the walking/cycling option

  14. Google Maps to Waze routing

    With a recent update we can now look up items over in Google Maps and share it to Waze. A feature I am requesting is when we look at the routes that Google Maps gives us, if we hit share from one of the selected routes, we be able to bring that to Waze direct.

    I know that Maps and Waze routes differently. Having that Maps over is nice but I'd like to pick a route there and navigate with Waze.

  17. Suggestion:

    It would help me if Waze could tell me to turn at next stop sign or traffic light. Or if it would tell me to go past this traffic light and turn at the next one. It also is hard for me to determine how far to go before turning. Like 450 feet or 1000 feet. Or 1 tenth of a mile, 4 tenth of mile. I sometimes turn too soon or miss my turn. Any suggestions?

  18. Road block notification and subsequent re route

    When faced with a blocked road there is no way to reroute because whatever route you take initially it will try to take you back to the blocked road and this is very frustrating
