100 saved
I have more than 100 saved locations. Now any new locations I save do not show in my Saved list because it caps at 100 displayed. Can this be expanded? or at least show recent saved at the top?

Re-introduce a feature. Back button (on android) re-centers map.
This is actually not new, but a feature I (and many people I've talked to) want back.
In the past, when you would roam around the map to check whats to come on your route, you could just press the default back button on android and it would re-center the map.
After recent updates, it doesn't do that anymore, and instead shows the dialog for shutting down. So not only we have to cancel that, but then find the button on screen to click to re-center.
Please, add it back.3 votes -
Remove or change the inbuilt browser in the App
Inbuilt browser in the application does not comply with the ‘family safety’ settings set for browsers and search engines on the phone. For example, adult content can be accessed via google through the Waze inbuilt browser by accessing googles website within it.

Add "unlimited speed limit" sign for Germany
In Germany, 70% of the highways have to actual speed limit. This is currently idicated by no speed limit sign at all. However, this might also mean that the speed limit is unknown.
Instead, the "unlimited" speed sign could be used that is used in Germany to indicate that no speed limit applies anymore (link to an image: https://www.bussgeldkatalog.org/wp-content/uploads/282.png) This is sign 282.This could be easily accomplished by either adding a checkbox to the editor to set that no speed limit applies, but this might requite some engineering.
An easier solution would be to only update the app…3 votes -
Option to force re-sync of calendar
I have a planned drive generated from a calendar event, but that calendar event has changed time and Waze doesn't know that. Please add an option to force Waze to re-fetch the calendar events and update planned drives accordingly.

Organisation des icônes sur l’ecran
L’icône donnant la vitesse n’est pas fonctionnel dans son positionnement. Il faudrait le positionner ou l’on veut l’idéal étant en haut à droite. Explication : lorsqu’il y a un radar, des bouchons, nous ne voyons plus la vitesse. Il faut donner la possibilité de positionner les icônes dont on a besoin et à l’endroit certain

Warn drivers that attempt changing the name of a place.
Recently I have seen (and rejected) many name changes on places where people attempt to change the name to one they would like to see as a shortcut name in their destinations.
Waze should warn them when they attempt to change the name of any place and provide an option to properly nickname a routing destination without changing the name everyone sees.
I usually send them a message via Chat when this happens and reject their changes, but it would be better if Waze did the warning .3 votes -
Drop a pin, select the wrong report category, but you cannot go back to correct like before
Release 4.101 is a step backwards. When I drop a pin and mistakenly select the wrong kind of report (for example tapping Police when I really wanted to tap Hazard) you can no longer go back to make the correct choice, you have to cancel the pin drop and start from scratch. The problem is now the new pin will be a few hundred yards further down the road than the hazard, which is not useful, especially for potholes, debris and the like. Please restore the ability to keep the pin drop but go back to the initial "What do…

Stop route button in landscape mode
Why is there no stop route button in landscape mode? It doesn't seem like to be a wise idea to not have all the same user interfaces as you do in portrait mode.

New interface changes are super uncomfortable and not user-friendly
Earlier to zoom out and check the route one needed to press in the bottom right corner. Now you need to tap on the screen, then press top left corner icon first and then zoom out or zoom in still in the right bottom corner. This is not good as you cover the screen with your hand while driving, and then need to make sure you will press the right button when moving all over the screen. Having these actions in the bottom left corner all together would cause much less friction.
Thank you.

Option to disable new message pop-up
Can you please give users the option to disable the pop-up when opening the app?
Active editors will look at replies to their messages while are editing the map.
Busy editors will reply to dozens of URs every day, and this pop-up is guaranteed to show every single time we open the app.

Lane guidance colour
The current lane guidance in Android Auto is shown such that the 1st line shows the upcoming lanes to take, and the 2nd line shows the next (i.e. then) guidance. Instead of taking up two lines, which takes up space, colour the most appropriate lane (s) in a different colour (green), and the least best lane in another colour (amber). For eg, if the upcoming highway exit is 3 lanes to the right, but the final edit is only the right most lane, colour the 3 arrows such that the right most is green, and the two other arrows in…

Program a way to pause Wyze when one is taking a deliberate detour. For example you plan a drive, on the way you decide to take a detour
Program a way to pause or stop Wyze while you are driving, using a voice command. Do this so you can stop or pause Wyze while driving and not have to touch or look at screen.

Knowing the direction of the closure
Hi>
Why isn't the closure displayed in the app the same way it is on the Waze map editor?
We often encounter misleading reports where users believe the entire street is closed.
I believe it would be beneficial to add small arrows to the traffic closure, similar to those in the map editor, to indicate the direction of the closure.thanks!
3 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

More options for Home and Work places
From some time ago, I'm looking for an option to choose more than one place for "Home", but I can't find it. Also you can add extra options for places like work.
