  2. Eviter les frontières

    Bonjour, Il serait bien d'ajouter l'option "Eviter les frontières", de la même façon que l'ont peu choisir l'option éviter péage et ferrie. Moi qui habite en France proche de la Suisse par exemple, Waze me fais traverser 2 postes de douane (entrée et sortie) pour aller dans certaines villes qui sont en France de l'autre côté de la Suisse, le problème c'est qu'avec mon vieux 4x4 les frontaliers ne veulent pas que je passent car ZFE! Je suis à chaque fois obligé de prendre des routes un peu hasardeuses, et fini souvent par me perdre, Waze ne me servant plus…

  3. Alternate Routes

    The last update to Waze made it more difficult and unsafe while driving. Prior to the update, I could click one button for alternate routes and it would bring up three on the screen. Now it brings up one and now I have to take my eyes off the road to slide the other options up. This was a bad idea of an update. Waze is the only map app that provides quick alternate routes while driving and now it is become risky to use.

  4. Option to type custom planned arrival time

    Would it be possible to add an arrival time that is off of the quarter hour? As strange as it sounds, I would like to know my departure time for a 3:05 pm arrival - for example. The estimated travel time can revert to being based on the closest (or ceiling/floor) quarter hour's prediction. But it would be helpful to have the alert be based on my actual time to leave.

  5. Add stops

    Before, it was possible to add multiple stops on Waze, and this is important for me since I work with deliveries. However, after the latest updates, it's only possible to add a single stop. On top of that, instructions like "turn right," "turn left," and "roundabout" are no longer being spoken, which makes using Waze impractical and forces me to rely on Google Maps. Please bring back the feature to add multiple stops because, even on the slowest day, I have seven consecutive deliveries to complete. I live in Brazil, where security is terrible if not nonexistent and having to…

  6. Route optimization??

    Is there a way for me to optimize a route with multiple stops in Waze? I can use RouteXL for up to 20 stops, but prefer Waze for navigation. It would be super helpful if I could enter or import the addresses into Waze, and then it give me the fastest order to hit them all and return me to my starting point.

  7. Timeline and distance along route

    Suggest to show timeline and distance along a planned route. This would facilitate break planning on longer travels.
    Timelines would let you forecast where you might search for good places to eat or spend the night, depending on current traffic and suggested routes.
    Distance indicators would let you forecast where you might need to refuel/charge, when your vehicle indicates range left.

  8. Add a "prefer main roads" option

    Whenever I visit an area that I'm not familiar with, Waze tends to find the fastest possible route to where I'm going, which often involves cutting through residential areas or some narrow back road. This is great if someone is late or wants to do whatever it takes to get somewhere as fast as possible, but I would love an option to prefer main roads, even if it adds a few minutes to my trip, just so the drive is as easy and safe as possible.

    Sería de mucha utilidad qué, en base a las experiencias de los conductores que transitan determinadas rutas alternas, estos puedan generar una retroalimentación acerca del nivel de dificultad o peligro que con lleva desplazarse por esa ruta sugerida dado que, por la necesidad y ansiedad de querer llegar a nuestro destino, nos aventuramos a recorrer caminos por los cuales nunca hemos transitado, depositando nuestra confianza en que Waze "nos guiará de manera segura". Lo anterior es porque existen conductores inexpertos que comienzan su etapa al frente de un vehículo y conducirlos por una calle con alta dificultad de manejo pone…

  10. Adding distance and time till the cross border

    It would be great, if the user picks a route that crosses the border, than the application shows additionally the approximate time and distance till the border and not only the time and distance till the end point.

    It's due to the fact that crossing some borders it self take additional time, and that the prices for fuel differ in different countries. It would help managing when you need to refill the car, and in which country.

    Just two numbers: time till border, distance till border.

  11. Rota a sugerir

    De Blumenau a Balneário Camboriú, tem 3 rotas indicadas pelo waze, em todas , manda utilizar a Rodovia Ingo Hering/ BR 470, rodovia extremamente perigosa. Existe a rota via Av Governador Jorge Lacerda, que passa por Gaspar e Ilhota que é muito mais segura e é feita no mesmo tempo das outras rotas, mesmo utilizando esta rota por anos, Waze não a sugere

  12. UK - Waze needs a "no single track roads" option

    Waze often routes down single track/privately maintained roads that are narrow and of poor quality

    An option to avoid these roads should be implemented.

  16. Giving them option driven one way to be able to drive that same route back to where you started from

    When driving to one city or town a specific route that you were happy with the way it took you. So you want to drive those same roads back to your original starting point. Instead of getting a good route from point A to point B. But when leaving point B you get a bunch of lil side roads that seem to take long to get back to point A

  19. Detailed info on "car on shoulder" warning

    Instead of just "car on shoulder ahead" it would be great to know which shoulder (left or right). In Minnesota we are required by law to move over to give cars on the shoulder room. It would be great to know which way I need to move to avoid hitting the car or striking someone who is out of the vehicle.

  20. Safety Warning

    I’d like to address a serious safety concern regarding Angeles Crest Highway. This road is extremely dangerous due to its sharp turns, narrow lanes, and proximity to sheer mountain edges. Drivers are often faced with oncoming traffic and either the edge of the mountain or the rocky mountainside. It is, without a doubt, the most terrifying road I’ve ever traveled.

    Adding to the danger, there are no streetlights or cellphone reception. While it may appear as a shorter route compared to congested freeways, it is not safe and should include a clear warning when suggested as a route on Waze.
