Road closure automatic pop-up
It would be nice, when we don't follow Waze instructions, that Waze automatically show a little pop-up to ask why we didn't follow the instruction. It would have, for example, 3 buttons: roadwork, closure, ignore. And if the user doesn't do anything after 10 seconds, the pop-up would just ignore and close.
It happened multiple time to me that a road is closed, but because of circulation around and behind me, I can't really take the time to navigate in the UI to find the good option to signal it, and then, once I have the time, it's just too…
18 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, 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!

Continue straight on highway
Recently my Waze has been telling me to continue straight on highways every time I drive passed an exit. While the “continue straight” feature is helpful for major highway intersections, I find the continuous updates to “continue straight” to be distracting while driving.

More Space Between “Thanks” & “Not There”
As I pass an alert, CarPlay screen asks me to choose either “Thanks” or “Not There.” The buttons are spaced so close together, sometimes I’m not sure if I accidentally pushed the wrong button. It would be helpful to space the buttons out. If they are further apart, it will be easier to hit the correct one, especially in a moving car.

Driving mode
Waze need a "Driving mode" switch within settings. I'm a Waze user, I use Waze from my car radio 7.5" screen and the only difference is more space for map view. By "Driving mode" is bigger buttons, bigger texts on street names and notifications. While driving you should not need to force reading or hitting a button... It's just an idea that I'm sure will improve a lot Waze usability while driving.

Have a Female super hero car to drive
Hi! My daughters asked me why, if the Batmobile is an option, we can’t drive a Wonder Woman car as well.
My kids are 3 and 5 and their question strikes the lack of representation they can already see here.
It can be WW or someone else... but could you have a car of a female superhero as well?
Ps: we love Batman too, -not the Riddle that much-, but having female representation would give an initial great & diversed option.
Thank you.

CarPlay Toll/Freeway Toggle
I find many times where I'd like to assess the difference between Toll vs Non-Toll or Freeway vs Non-Freeway routes, but there is no easy and safe way to do this while connected to Carplay. Offering a simple accessible toggle for these functions would be extremely valuable!

libby
It would be great if the app worked with Libby or Overdrive apps, so that one could listen to audiobooks from the library while one drives.

avoid a specified road would be a great feature.
It would be great if I could avoid a particular road I hate driving on the way home. Its not a toll or a dirt road, and I dont want to change my preferences just to avoid the same road , but I hate it. Its unlit, fast, narrow and has a really annoying junction and a big width restriction. I just want to tell Waze to never route that way. Id rather take 5 more minutes getting home .

Connect Waze to sireneradar.com to let Waze show a warning of an approaching emergency vehicle.
In the Netherlands we have the sireneradar.com initiative. Most emergency services are connected to this system.
The location of the police/fire/ambulance-vehicle is reported realtime to the platform, That data is available to navigation vendors like TomTom and Flitsmeister, and they sound and display a warning to their users for an approaching emergency vehicle.
This way the Waze users get an early warning, so they can be extra alert when they need to.

Account recovery not a new account
How about when a user gets a new phone or their phone crashes (both scenarios keep original Waze account phone number) an account reset or recovery option? You know, one that does NOT create a new account and informs you afterwards that you just hosed yourself because now you will never get your account back. I'm not so worried about the "points" I lost, it's my user name that still shows up as a user that I can no longer access. It's great you guys gobbled up Waze, how about raising your standards to that of the original company?

Je conduis souvent des véhicules utilitaires bridés à 90, 100 ou 110 km/h, serait-il possible de pouvoir modifier la vitesse limite des routes et autoroutes afin d'avoir le temps de trajet correspondant à la vitesse maximale du véhicule conduit ?

Alerts and Navigation Checkboxes
I would love the option to turn off alerts and solely have the navigation voice be audible!
I've read that the purpose for having the options be "Sound Off," "Alerts Only," and "Sound On" -- no "Navigation Only" -- is to keep the interface sleek, which I completely understand and support... so how about instead of making it a slider from "Sound Off" to "Alerts Only" to "Sound On," you made them checkboxes?
That way, you'd only have two toggles -- "Alerts On/Off," and "Navigation On/Off," and folks in dense metropolitan areas wouldn't have to choose between complete silence with…

Aviso de aprobación de FOTO, LUGAR, ETC, al usuario waze que la reporto.
Sería muy bueno, que los usuarios que reportan FOTOS, LUGARES, ETC y que no lo pueden aprobar por tener un Nivel Bajo, reciban un mensaje automático cuando un usuario superior (Ej. L4, L5, etc) les apruebe dicho reporte. Creo que de esta manera, el usuario estaría viendo que su esfuerzo fue valorado y lo incentivaría a nuevos reportes. Gracias.
