Audio as "incoming call"
I often use Waze in the car when NOT listening to the Bluetooth audio stream. Waze via the phone speaker is inaudible. Can Waze simulate an incoming call to the handsfree kit so it will mute audio and play the instructions over the speakers in the car rather than the speaker in my phone?

Integrate support for KML files into the app
Add option to import favorites from a KML file (talking about 1500+ points of interest). Only reason today I'm using iGo instead of 100% waze is the option to use KML files.

Paddington Voice
Please make the Paddington Bear voice a permanent option. It is the only navigation voice that I don't want to argue with. It creates a calming experience and i’m upset to open Waze to a a notification that it’s leaving. I’ve got many friends and family using Waze so they too can enjoy the Paddington Bear voice.

Action icons on left in CarPlay (US) so driver doesn’t need to reach across
Put the action icons on the left (in countries where cars are on right of road) when displaying in CarPlay so the driver does not need to reach across to use them. Notifications should appear on right instead of left.
48 votesThanks for your feedback and apologies for any confusion. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Integrate Qobuz with Waze.
Qobuz is a top choice of music streaming services for audiophiles, yet it isn't integrated with Waze. It's a PITA to change apps while driving.

Always show number of Wazers
When you first start Waze it shows the amount of Wazers around you and then goes back to saying good morning or evening. As you move into different areas it's important to know if there are plenty of other Wazers still around.
Also if it could show how many Wazers are in front of you in the direction your travelling so you know anything that is in front of you will be reported. I currently keep restarting the app so i can find out which is really annoying.
If fit some reason people don't want it you could make it…48 votes -

Don't limit the number of reports that can be submitted, limit the points given instead. Better to have more current info avail for drivers.
Today I exceeded my limit for the number of reports I could submit. I was not aware there was a limit, but this happened just as I was trying to report an accident on the freeway. I am on the roads early each morning and would think the more info submitted for the rush hour the better. Instead of limiting how many reports can be submitted, if abuse is a concern, why not just limit the points that can be earned from submitting points within a certain amount of time. I was very disappointed that I was not able to…

Treat roads with RTC as routable pedestrian path
Right now, when trying to route to a destination on a closed road, it's pretty much like the road no longer exists and Waze will route to the nearest open road.
Sometimes, this means that users will be routed somewhere completely different, like to the middle of a highway, to the other side of a raildroad track into a completely different neighbourhood, etc.
Segments with RTCs on them should be treated as a routable pedestrian path: route the driver to the closest entry point.

Suggest EV charging stations close to destination
In the new update EV charging stations have been integrated into the Waze experience. The issue is that they are treated as petrol stations while most EV-chargers are more suited as destination chargers.
When navigating to a destination with parking locations nearby, Waze suggests navigating to these locations instead in the search result.
I suggest making a similar feature for EV charging stations close to your destination. So in addition to the "Where to park" suggestions, you would also have a header with "Where to charge" suggestions.
This would significantly increase the discoverability of the AC chargers in Waze, whereas…47 votes -
Fix the gas price functionality by adding additional shortcuts to update gas station prices and automatically remove old data
The current method of adding gas prices is apparently too hard for many Wazers to find. Editors are constantly receiving PURs regarding incorrect and out of date gas prices. I have three recommendations for where to add a shortcut:
- Add a button to the page that shows all of the gas stations near your location.
- Add a button on the gas station's info page right below the listed prices.
- If a user is located within the gas station area, give a popup (like when Waze detects a traffic jam).
The gas station price functionality has the potential to be much…

Screen saver-prevent screen burn
Need to make a screen saver so that the screen does not burn. I have had 2 phones that now have ghosting from the screen being on while navigating. Maybe add an option to have the screen go dark between turns.
47 votesThank you for your suggestion!
The Report button was designed to be noticed while blending in and it’s important to keep it as is.
However, we will revisit this idea when working on Dark mode, in the future. Furthermore, since this is a physical issue that OLED phones suffer from in different apps, we recommend to use Battery Saver mode to allow your display some rest from bright colors that might lead to this dysfunction.
Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram. -
Can we get Car/Bumper stickers so we can see other Wazers on the road while driving
When I see other Wazers on the map it is difficult to see them on the road. It would be good to acknowledge each other as this a community project. So some sort of Waze sticker would be good

Display shield AND road name in the app
Please consider displaying one or more shields along with a road name in the app. Ideally, we could have the option to display more than one shield, but at least one would be very helpful. Other nav apps already do this today.
Currently, we can either display a single shield on a road OR the primary road name. Many roads are known by a common name but also have one or more shields that can be very important for navigation. Some intersections have a road name sign, while others only have a shield sign. Frequently, locals may know the road…

Multi-Stop Route Planning
Overview:
Waze currently allows users to set a single destination at a time, requiring them to manually input a new route after reaching their first stop. This can be time-consuming and inefficient, especially for users who need to make multiple stops in one trip.
Proposed Feature:
Enable users to set a route with multiple destinations in advance. Instead of navigating only from Point A to Point B, users will be able to plan a route such as:
A → B → C → D
Waze will automatically guide them from one stop to the next without requiring manual input between…46 votes
