Enhancing Waze: Traffic Mode vs. Navigation Mode
Problem: When using Waze primarily for traffic and alert monitoring (rather than navigation), essential information like the compass, speed limit, and alert icons doesn’t appear unless a specific destination is set. (I am using ipadOS 17.4)
Suggested Improvement:
Introduce a new option in “Settings: General” called “Default Driving Mode.”
Users can choose between:
Traffic Mode: Starts Waze in full-screen map mode without the “Where to?” prompt. Provides standard map elements and access to submit/receive alerts.
Navigation Mode: Retains the current default map with the persistent “Where to?” prompt.
Consider adding a button on the map display to toggle between Navigation…3 votes -
Remove background colour from street names
Hi
Could you please remove the colour at street names and make it very clear so we can see the turns and roundabout. Most of the time it's appear at turns so we get confused which exit on roundabout we have to take. It totally vanished the roundabout Most of the time. If you need a screenshot then i can show you how it distract a driver while driving.3 votes -
Customized pre-departure planned drive times
I’d like a setting option to be able to customize the amount of time (in minutes) before my planned drive alerts me to leave for my destination. Typically I like to arrive at least 15 minutes to my destination before my scheduled meeting time, to allow for extra preparation time or traffic considerations.

Potholes reports disappear
Every day I report huge potholes on motorway E42 in Belgium, and every day I have to report them again and again because Waze doesn't take my indications into account. Could you please make an effort? Thanks.

Android Auto Problems
I noticed that there is no option to share the route through the ANDROID AUTO version and this is very important. It's also really bad when we use 2 fingers to zoom out of the map (after zooming out a bit, we can only zoom out by clicking on the "-" sign. I would like to suggest that this be looked into and improved. Thank you.

Going back to correct reported hazard
Since the fantastic (not sarcasm - I really like the update - for the most part) update after I attempt to report a hazard I’ve noticed if I tap the wrong category or want to back out to the previous screen, it cancels the entire report. Then I’m 1/2 a mile down the road and it doesn’t make sense to do a new report because the location won’t be accurate.
Please PLEASE allow to back out of the category. Forget people saying “too many taps to report” if you keep from changing the location of the options muscle memory takes…3 votes -
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 -

Police
Is there anyway you can report police and speed cameras with a lot more notice, from my experience 0.3 miles is no where near long enough to react in most cases!! Could it change to 1.2 miles. This gives us more time to react and plan ahead. Also you could make the report for the police on both sides of the road!!

Remove Blue Tinted Night Mode
The new updated changes the base color of the map when engaged in night mode. This map is extremely hard to read in dark conditions, and the overall color scheme is unpleasant. The original night mode used an all gray color scheme. Please allow user to revert back to the original or remove it all together!

Please give us the option to turn off the sound when a hazard is acknowledged, I don't need a ding to show me I acknowledged the hazard.
There should be an option to turn on or off the sound acknowledgement when you say a hazard is there or not, forcing the alert sound on for all is ridiculous.

Alerter par la voix
Alerter par la voix comme Google et Apple. C’est plus sécuritaire et correspond à l’esprit Waze.

Speed indicator
When the phone is in landscape mode, the speed indicator can be sometimes hidden by the lanes indicator when it pops up.
Is it possible to put the speed indicator on the foreground or move it when it is hidden under another object?

Or a motorcycle bike that always hides behind a fence by the street. The police in our area tend to hide pretty well would be helpful for…

UK time restrictions (School Streets)
Monday to Friday
No entry between 8am and 9:15am."
And 2:45pm and 4:00pm."There are loads of these signs in hundreds of cities all over the UK especially London. Can't we allow for local map editors to save time based restrictions into the map?

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…

Add option to avoid mountain passes
Sometimes, specially by bad weather or at night, a mountain pass can be really scary. I would prefer to do more KMs to catch a Tunnel, for example.
It would be great to have the option to avoid them or at least a warning.
Example in Switzerland: to use vereina tunnel instead of fluela pass (also in Sommer)3 votes -
