Reativação de múltiplas caronas no Waze Carpool - taxa a partir do segundo usuário na mesma carona
O Waze Carpool é uma ótima ideia no compartilhamento de caronas para redução de veículos no tráfego da cidade. Inicialmente poderíamos oferecer até 4 lugares no veículo e era bom pra todos. Minha sugestão é que, invés de limitar a carona a 1 pessoa, o Waze ter a taxa de serviço de 10% a partir da segunda carona no mesmo roteiro, para que tenha recursos na manutenção e aperfeiçoamento da ferramenta. Eu já fazia o Carpool da mesma forma que a ferramenta foi lançada e o único desafio era centralizar a colaboração, algo que o Waze Carpool complementou. Obrigado a…

Search results not close to my location.
Usually, the first few search results are hundreds or even thousands of kilometres / miles from my location. Search results should default to the closest to me, unless I add more details on the search location, like town/city.

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…35 votes -
Allow decimal points in House Numbers
Alphabetic characters and slashes are now allowed in House Numbers, which is a huge step forward. Unfortunately, decimal points are still not allowed. This is a problem in Puerto Rico where rural addresses are often based on kilometer posts. A rural address in Puerto Rico might look like "km 17.1 Calle Marginal". Allowing decimal points would be very helpful. Other areas might benefit from other special characters being allowed.

RPPs should allow alternate street names
Residential Place Points are limited to a single entry for the Street Name field. This creates an issue when streets have multiple names, not just officially but also in signage at different intersections.
An example, local to myself, is OR-99W. This is a state route, so it has its numbered designation (OR-99W), as well as its route name, which is carried through every city it traverses (Pacific Highway West). However, signage for this road in a single city can and does vary between either of those names, plus other, more localized variations (SW Pacific Hwy, Pacific Hwy (without directionals), etc.).

Add a Toilet Place Category
There is currently no toilet place category, there is however apparently a search category for toilet. It would be ideal to create a place category for toilet tied to the search category so that public toilets can be mapped more effectively than simply using "Other". This could then potentially be tied to a quick search category in app.

update recent / saved drives
A lot of Update Requests come from drivers who are using saved drives for Places that have been updated or changed in the map editor.
Can we make it so after a time period (a month, for instance) the app queries the server for updates when an entry is chosen from the recent/saved drives? Or give a prompt that allows the user to manually update a saved entry, or all entries? "It's been over a month since you've driven here, would you like to see if there have been any changes?"
Also, an option (in the settings or in the…14 votes -
FIX saved places
I have noticed if i have a saved place in recent i cannot search for the saved name.
The only way i can search for the saved name is to remove it from recent places.
Can this be resolved please.

Show search results on map
Waze search results are objectively inferior both in app and on android auto/carplay as compared to other popular navigation apps such as gmaps or apple maps.
Both of those apps display search results on a map view, with A, B, C etc pins with a selectable list on the side, and this works in app and on the in car head unit display. Google Maps also has a MUCH cleaner "add a stop" workflow.
This is a critical and basic feature gap that makes competing map applications much easier to use for searching11 votes -

Closed locations
Multiple times, I have been taken miles off of my route to go to a certain store or rest stop or gas station, only to arrive and discover that it’s either permanently closed or hasn’t been opened for business yet (I’m not talking business hours. I’m talking “still under construction.”) this is infuriating. Please allow us to mark locations as permanently closed or have the app notify us that it’s not open yet. I’m tired of pulling into a closed parking lot because Waze told me something was open. I opened the app to try and mark the location as…

Avoid part of route.
Please add an option to avoid a part of a route that you don't like. For example, if you like the route that Waze choose for you, but there is just one road you don't want to use, put the option to click on that road and have Waze route you around that road. Also add an option to avoid a road block. So if you come up to a road block, just click that button and it will route you around it. Otherwise, this APP is the best GPS I've seen.

Bring back the Gas Station setting
Bring back the option that you can select your fuel type and gas station brand. It makes it so much easier when you are looking for a gas station in the list.

Restroom Search
Please add feature to search for closest restrooms on route - rest areas, public restrooms at gas stations and restaurants. Waze admin responses to other bathroom feedback states users can search for “restroom” or “toilets”, but this feature does not work. Waze directed me to a rest area 20 miles away. Gas station search sent me to 4 San Diego area gas stations, 1 closed and 3 with no public restrooms. The closest restaurant required a minimum purchase for the restroom door code.

Waze needs a "Tesla Public Supercharger" charge network category
The tesla DC fast charge / "Supercharger" network is split between chargers that are only for Tesla vehicles and Public chargers that allow any EV to charge. Waze needs a new charge network category of "Tesla Public Supercharger" so people with a non-tesla EV who want to use the Tesla network aren't routed to a Tesla only charger.

It would be so much easier to delete recent searches , if you put a Trash Can next to each Search.
It would be so much easier to Delete “ Searches “ by placing a “ Trash Can “ on the same line.

Block search results
When I search, for example, 123 Main St, without fail, the first search results are for the United States.
I live in Canada
I will NEVER be driving in the United States.I literally lose a significant amount of time having to type in the complete address to get rid of the American search results.
Why is there not a button to limit search results to "National results only" or "block international search results"?

Huisnummer toevoegen aan zoekresultaat
Als ik een adres intypt heeft waze een suggestie weer, als ik vervolgens deze suggestie selecteer kan ik geen huisnummer meer toevoegen. Ik ben dan dus genoodzaakt om het hele adres uit te typen. Zou het niet slimmer zijn dat je na het selecteren nog een functie krijgt om een huisnummer toe te voegen?
