  1. Create Waze Vehicle Profiles

    It would be nice to have Vehicle profiles, and change them rapidly on the Main Menu.
    For example:
    I use a Private Diesel Car most of the times.
    I also ride a Gasoline Motorcycle (witch can ride the BUS lane in Oporto - Portugal)
    I can also use an TAXI Electrical Car.

    In this case I should be able to create 3 Vehicle profiles on the Settings, and on the main menu, choose witch one we want to use at the moment, so that routes can be calculated accordingly. Otherwise, I must go to Definitions and Change the Type of…

  3. HOV only ramps and roads

    When Wazers select an HOV route, because of the way HOV was implemented, any direct access ramp or otherwise HOV only road will never be suggested.

    Waze needs to be able to suggest all HOV options, including HOV only flyovers and ramps.

  4. Gas station stops by fuel range

    Ability to enter fuel range of your vehicle to automatically suggest stops on long trips. When driving long distances, I have to make the destination a gas station that is *** miles away, then change my destination at that stop to the next gas station, then finally add my final destination at the last gas stop. Would be nice to enter a final destination and then a fuel range of 350 miles and suggest as many stops are needed.

  5. Penalise routing through unpaved roads

    Problem:
    Users with "allow unpaved roads" attribute on the client are oftenly routed through unpaved roads. They complain on why they are routed through these when other routes are available.

    Description:
    Unpaved roads are often rough, uncomfortable and dirty. When the user has selected "allow unpaved roads" they expect to see better routes. When there are no other available options to get to a place, or when the paved option is tens of kilometers longer, then unpaved roads make sense. However, when there are several routes with paved roads and some unpaved roads, users are not expecting to drive through…

  6. Give Option to Confirm Address when starting Route

    I want to confirm the address Waze is taken me to before the route starts. If I say take me to X, it automatically starts the route without letting me confirm or see the address it is taking me to.

  8. Capitalize on the Great American solar eclipse 2024

    I'm not sure if you all are already thinking about this, but I think it would be really smart to capitalize on the upcoming Great American solar eclipse on April 8th. I've noticed that Waze is good about navigating large crowds of vehicles through the available road systems when a lot of people are running the app, so I think it would be great to market and advertise to folks that they should be using the app in order to alleviate the traffic and smooth everything out. I know I will be running the app, especially on my way home!

  9. Provide an alternative route when accident in front of me

    I need the app to provide enough in advance an exit off highway with an alternative toure. It happens to me all the time that Waze gets me stuck in the constipation. ******* banana. It used to work this way. Not anymore. I am crazy.

  11. Add "HIGHWAY FIRST" to route preference

    When there are several routes available, I've noticed that Waze may calculate a route that combines both ground roads and highways. This is done to save a little time or reduce toll fees but can result in entering the highway from a distant entrance or exiting the highway too early. This approach leads to more instances of entering and exiting, as well as increased interactions with other drivers, which is unnecessary and more dangerous.

    I suggest implementing a "HIGHWAY FIRST" preference. When a highway is available, the system should calculate a route that prioritizes the use of highways, even if…

  12. Please include tunnel closures in your map feature so routes will avoid them in Singapore

    There are many tunnels closure in Singapore in the middle of the night. Would be helpful for drivers if we get routes that avoid them

  13. Routes

    When using carplay with Iphone: in oorder to see all the routes, one need to click on the arrow and then a window opens with the initial route already offered, and the request to click again on the screen to see all the routes. The second click on the screen is completely unnecessary because it is clear that if I click the first time to see routes I would like to see all the options (usually 3 ). Maybe you can check its cancellation. Thank you

  15. adding no commercial plates filter

    Allowing a filter for choosing passenger cars only routes or commercial vehicles allowed. This would be helpful to plan routes and side routes avoiding parkways or roads in the NYC area which do not allow commercial plated vehicles on those roads

  16. Improved Automatic Re-Routing for Traffic Congestion in Waze

    We would like to propose an enhancement to Waze's automatic re-routing feature to provide users with greater control and flexibility when navigating around traffic congestion.

    Currently, Waze offers basic re-routing, but it lacks the ability to:

    Prioritize surface streets or alternate highways/freeways: This would be particularly valuable for users who prefer avoiding congested highways altogether, even if it means a slightly longer route.

    Define granular re-routing preferences: A binary on/off toggle is limiting. We propose options similar to existing route preferences (fastest/shortest) that allow users to:

    Set time windows for re-routing: For example, automatically re-route during known rush hour periods.

  18. Motorcycle Routes

    I ride a motorcycle a make my own routes with MRA (MyRoute.App). I have used REVER, Harley Rider, Kuviger, and other programs to make motorcycle routes. Up load my designed routes to a GARMIN Zumo GPS. It does a pretty good job, but WAZES has some features that a standalone GPS does not offer. I am looking for a good navigation app like WAZE for my phone that I can upload my routes. Then I follow a specific route. Many of these routes are 100+ mile loop with a stop for a meal.

    I think WAZE would be a great…

  20. Remembering travelled routes

    Let say I plan a trip from point a to b.
    However I make a few wrong turns along the way.
    Is it possible for Waze to show the planned route and the actual route so that new drivers can see their mistake and learn from it?
