  2. Turn On/Off Avoid Freeways in CarPlay

    Would like a way to toggle on/off avoid freeways in CarPlay. When driving locally many times I would prefer to avoid freeways even if technically they are a little closer/faster. It would be helpful to be able to do this on CarPlay rather than having to open the navigation settings on the phone.

  3. When we're rerouted to avoid congestion it would really be helpful to get a brief reason.

    When Waze reroutes us to avoid congestion, it would be very helpful if it could briefly announce "rerouting due to congestion" or words to that effect so we'll know that the apparently strange new route isn't the result of an inadvertent electronic "hiccup."

    Thank you for your valuable feedback. We're pleased to confirm that this suggestion is planned and we appreciate your input as we continue to enhance our product.

  4. Alerte limite vitesse

    Bonjour,
    Merci pour cette application.
    Serait-il possible de pouvoir moduler le son de l'alerte sonore de dépassement de la vitesse, car je ne l'entends pas, même quand le son global de Waze est au maximum.
    Cela sera d'autant plus utile que les routes françaises passeront prochainement à 80km/h.
    Merci.

  5. Disable irrelevant ads POI

    I understand ads are the most important thing in your business model, but wouldn't it be better to have targeted ads?

    Please allow us to disable irrelevant ads. I'm sick of seeing fast food POIs. I won't go, ever! Give me fancy restaurants instead!

  6. local law icons (like "no-turn-on-red")

    I travel a lot for work, and never know basic road rules where I'm at. So I always err on the side of caution. Things like "Can I turn right on a red?", better not.
    It would be AWESOME if I could drop a very small little overlay with icons of my choosing for (optional overlay please, with checkboxes if I want this particular feature):
    - Right-turn-on-red "green-yes / red-no / grey-unknown"
    - Passing-on-right-allowed "<same colors>"
    - etc. for other 'odd' little region specific things that I'm sure you'll get 100 suggestions

    They could even be triggered overlays by my…

  7. When you search, can it list from Favorites first

    Currently, when you search, it does not always list all the matching items from favorites, and lists a bunch of results that are not related!

    Please adjust police icon to not only represent a white male. Just the symbolic hat would work just fine.

  10. Alert of traffic jam to avoid colision

    Hello,

    Trafic jam must be report as a danger. We need that the voice warn us to slow down before.
    Right now the only way to avoid colision is to look at the screen of our phone to see if there a trafic jam. On highway it’s realy dangerous.

    Thanks

  11. Send photo to report speed camera

    Normally when you report a speed camera, it just will send the position and type of camera to WME. It will help to waze editors if users can send a photo of the camera with the report. And also, add posibility to editors communicate with the user who reports to ask more information as a normal report.

  12. Tarhe Traffic (road limitation) in Tehran, Iran

    Basically there are limitations on roads that you can have access to during the day in Tehran, Iran. There are areas that you can access only if you have the permit for the day and there are areas that you can access based on your plate ending number. So for example if you have even number ending plate then you can pas from these areas only on even days of the week.
    These are issues that waze does not put into consideration while it is navigating and you can easily get fined by passing from these areas automatically.
    Thanks

  13. Correct Multi window (currently pauses)

    Can you please allow waze to work correctly in multi window mode.Android 7.1.1 if you have Waze open in a multi-window configuration, it wouldn't actually work as expected. As long as it had focus and was the last app you interacted with, Waze would work as expected, updating your location and orientation on the map. But if you interacted with another app in multi-window, Waze would stop updating until you go back to it.

    Similar issue with Google maps which just got fixed:

  14. Discard fuel prices after some time

    For each gas station there are the fuel prices, e how many days ago they were entered.
    For some gas stations, the fuel prices have not updated since long time, and so the indication has become useless and misleading. It may be that it's listed an expensive price for a gas station just because in the past the fuel was everywhere more expensive than now (and hence now nobody will go to that gas station, and the prices of that station will not get updated anymore).

    Hence, my proposal is that, after some time (say, two months), the fuel prices…

  15. Common Route Change Alert.

    We all have a weekday routine driving to work in the morning and back home in the evening. Most times we do not turn on Waze since the rout does not change. When there are traffic problems in that common route, I'd like to receive an alert from Waze informing me to switch on and follow a faster route automatically.

  17. Connect Waze to other apps with IFTTT-channels

    Waze collect a lot of useful information throughout a trip. This information could be used to by other apps, if there was a way to connect them. IFTTT is a very popular way to do this. Simple recipes allow for strong applets, in the form of IF This Then That.

    Examples:
    If I reach my destination, then log my trip to a Google Doc Spreadsheet.
    If I reach my destination, then send a notification to person x.
    If I am x miles from my destination, open my garage.
    If I start my trip, then turn my thermostat then to the…

  20. MORE navigation options, in addition to shorter time or distance

    I would LOVE for waze to have multiple options for routes. For instance :
    Standard options:
    - shortest distance
    - shortest time
    Standard avoids :
    - avoid toll roads
    - avoid highways

    New ones:
    - least turns
    - least traffic lights ;

    New avoiding routes:
    - avoid construction routes
    - avoid one lane streets
    - avoid streets with traffic moving slower than

    All of these should be able to mix and match and specify further details. For instance it would be great if it showed option to list trips within X percent of time to shortest time trip. It can…
