  2. I miss the listing of traffic on the old app. It appears you can only see the traffic by looking at the map now.

    If you're looking to see the traffic along several routes, this was the fastest way to tell.

  3. Waze update poorly displays street labels, even zoomed!

    HELP! Waze update does not display street labels well in SF. Zooming in doesn't help. Now we must scroll far to the right or left to hunt for street name! Please fix!

  4. You have ruined a great app. Please look at all the NEW reviews.

    Go back to the previous design. The new design is harder to read, there is less map to see and the alerts are dots instead of icons. Oh and it is much less intuitive. Was it changed for change sake? PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD design and listen to the long list of complaints posted everywhere including ITunes app store.

    UGH!!!!

  5. wake from sleep option could use enhancement

    I like that we have the sleep option now. But instead of automatically waking when you bring the app back to the foreground, I'd like an option to allow me to keep the app running but in sleep mode until I choose to wake it.

  6. Put the GUI back to how it was in the previous version

    The new user interface looks childish, but more critically you guys seem that have forgotten that the primary purpose of Waze is navigation. There's an empty grey bar hiding the bottom 10% of the map, and whenever a road feature comes up the top of the map gets hidden, meaning that a full third of the map is obscured. A phone screen is small enough as it is - with a third of the map hidden navigation becomes really difficult! To top it all off, there's no way of getting rid of the top banner - there's just a greyed-out…

  8. Either allow users to disable popup notifications, or reduce the amount of screen real-estate used to display it

    Popups for slow-downs in traffic, traffic cameras, etc may be useful, but why not condense the information into a smaller area which doesnt obstruct ones view of the route. Secondly, why do I need to see the same notification repeatedly when I've already acknowledged it for the first time?

  9. Sound Navigation

    One of my favorite things about Maps is when I'm in route to my destination and I want to here what my next step in my direction is that I can tap the screen and here the lady tell me what to expect next whether I'm .2 miles away, 1 mile away or 5 miles away from my next turn. With Waze If I'm driving and want to hear what my next turn is I have to wait for the app to choose when to vocally acknowledge what I am to do next. I would like Waze to have the…

  10. מתן אינדיקציה לנהגים כאשר יש התפרעות או זריקת אבנים עם אפשרות לשיתוף תמונות ושינוי נתיב נסיעה לנתיב בטוח יותר

    מתן אינדיקציה לנהגים כאשר יש התפרעות או זריקת אבנים עם אפשרות לשיתוף תמונות ושינוי נתיב
    נסיעה לנתיב בטוח יותר
    לצערי חוויתי על בשרי את החוויה הנוראה הזאת ואני בטוח שאילו שאם יהיה אפשרות לדעת מנהגים אחרים, בעיקר במוקדי הפורענות, נהגים אחרים יעזרו במידע הכל כך לשוב הזה

  14. Botões para marcar ruas/locais esburacadas, defeitos nivelamento, bueiro aberto que danifica o carro/pneu; e avise quando estiver próximo.

    Colocar botões na tela do mapa, para marcar os defeitos na pista(avenidas, ruas, estradas), exemplo: um botão desnivelamento, buraco grande, e grava no mapa, para avisar aos wazers quando chegarem perto, exemplo: tem um buraco grande na pista à sua direita, tem um desnivelamento com bueiro. Existe um bueiro aberto no centro, na lateral direita ou esquerda.

  15. Traffic jam duration based on history חישוב זמן מבוסס היסטוריה

    Some places have traffic jams at same time every day.
    Wayz can know this data and show you an alternate duration time based on history (that way you won't be surprised every day by the same traffic jam).

    במקומות מסוימים יש פקק קבוע כל יום באותה שעה. הווייז יכול לדעת על פקקים לפי בסיס הנתונים הרחב הקיים ולתת אופציית תזמון אלטרנטיבית מבוססת היסטוריה.
    ככה כשתצא ב0630 בבוקר מב"ש לת"א הווייז לא יופתע מהפקקים שיווצרו באיילון וייתן הערכת זמן יותר טובה.

  16. Upgrade servers to support HTTP2/ SPDY - Faster load times

    Waze.com should switch on HTTP2/SPDY support.

    It provides faster page loads - Chrome supports it.

    Here is the very simple guide to get this going fast. https://bjornjohansen.no/enabling-spdy-nginx

    https://spdycheck.org/#www.waze.com - To see the results of spdy check on Waze.com

    chrome://net-internals/#spdy see what pages are loading over http2 in chrome. (currently none from waze.com)(most from maps.google.com)

  20. Can you create a "rouch railroad crossing" hazard? In an unfmailiar area it would be nice to know if the railroad is going to eat your car.

    Please add a "Rough Railroad Crossing" hazard. Pothole doesn't quite describe the situation properly.
