  1. Map & Command more like Google!

    PLEASE READ & VOTE!!
    Instead of “Turn right / left in .1 miles” (esp. for in-town and city driving) change to Google-like commands (e.g.- “At the next light / stop sign, turn right/left) and SHOW Device - light or sign at corners - on the map, as such - sign or light).
    Doing so also helps to know HOW MANY lights or signs remain between you and your next turn.
    It’s impractical to watch your mileage in these conditions. It’s more “natural” - as when someone is telling you directions in the passenger seat - to look for the next…

  4. Restore and add more alert choices and sub-choices - make the last more visible

    Hello, Waze. For unknown reason to us, your users, you are lowering the variety of the alerts that could be reported and/or their sub-options. The most striking example is the police reporting option where it is not possible to report a police from the other side. Please restore it. Please, add the following reports:
    1) stationary speed camera
    1.1) please add a detail about the direction the already added stationary speed cameras are pointing at - towards the incoming cars or at the same direction of the road lane group. Also add this as an option for the ones that…

  5. switch alerts to horizontal instead of vertical

    Would it be possible to rearrange the "still there/not there" to horizontal instead of vertical. Reason being, roads are not perfectly smooth and when you go to select an option your finger moves up and down with the contour of the road thus possibly selecting the wrong option

  6. POLICE location

    When reporting police locations, I would like to be able to have the capability to indicate that the police car is traveling on the same road that I am traveling. In comparison to a visible static location, but someway to indicate that they are traveling on the road.

  7. "Still There" should have a "Close Window" option

    When the "Still There" window pops up in Apple CarPlay, I frequently click the button just to make the window go away which results in sending the message that the hazard is still there even if it's not. It would be helpful if the default was "Close Window".

  8. Welcome to XYZ state!

    While traveling on the Interstate welcome me to a new state instead of telling me to continue on interstate you are already on! Usually there are no exit anyway because you are crossing a bridge.

  9. pre-warning

    if the congestion/queue is far from intersection and will only have an effect later (e.g. 10km or more) but it already known and waze strongly suggest a detour, should be indicated somehow (e.g. a traffic jam icon with distance in km, blinking roadline, etc),
    that there is a big traffic jam in that direction in 10km,
    before I get to the intersection

  11. Average speed alert

    The "average speed check zone" alert is too unrelenting. You're listening to your favourite song, or an audiobook, or a podcast, and then the "average speed check zone ahead" starts and it's endless (wouldn't "average speed control" be enough?) and then, 5 seconds later, again, "entering average speed check zone". Enough!! A single, shorter message is enough. Also, every time the alert starts, the volume is lowered, and you have to raise it back again (maybe that's Carplay fault)

  12. Create an option that alerts you by the place being transited

    Create an option to enable naming with the name of the neighborhood or place where it is transited, in order to provide a better location, also if different sites are crossed either at urban or metropolitan level from the place of origin to the place of destination, be informed the place where you are transiting

  13. New alerts/reports

    You should add some a like new report that an ambulance is stopped ahead, Hurricane/Earthquakes alerts also while driving because they might notice the earthquake or a big rain is oncoming, also add a anti-autoclicker because some Waxers uses them as points as possible.

  14. Reminder to Head Home

    Hello, I've been browsing through suggestions, and I've yet to see this.

    A reminder to head home, so that I always get home at the same time. I try to go to sleep at the same time every night but that can be difficult as it's not always easy to remember how far away you are and how long it will take you to get home.

    For example, I want to get home at 9 pm every night. Since my location is always on, maybe Waze could keep track of where I'm at and calculate the time it would take…

  16. police

    Could you please improve the feature to report police. I'd like to suggest, that you can track the police location afterwards, since it's forbidden in most countries to be on your mobile device. It would also be very helpful if you could remove/delete the police report that you have uploaded, since I tried to report the police location, but I quickly realised that you can only report the police location when you are at the exact loaction.

  17. Arrêter de signaler les véhi ules en stationnement

    Arrêter de signaler les véhicules arrêtés sur les airs de repos ou les trotoirs !
    Le soir c'est non stop ces signalements inutiles de chauffeurs prenant leur pause sur une air de repos, une voiture garrée sur le bas coté devant sa maison etc. Et on n'y fais plus attention au bout d'une vingtaine de signalelents bidons !
    Et du coup, j'ai failli écraser un type changeant sa roue après un virage !
    Il avait peut être aussi été signalé mais au bout d'une vingtaine de signalement inutiles c'est passé inaperçu.

  18. segítség a wazereknek

    Jó lenne jelezni a közelgő falvakat,illetve várost,aki nem ismerős utakon vezet,az tudja,illetve felkészüljön ,hogy 50-nel mehet. sokszor kanyar után van a falu tábla,későn tudok lassítani s elvileg tábla után már fizethetnék,mint a kis angyal.
    a fizetős utaknál,ha az autóutakra nem kell fizetni,akkor külön kategorizálni,hogy oda felmehetek, a z autópályákra meg nem. Egybe van olyan opció,hogy autóutak/autópályák elkerülése.

  19. remove the chime the ap makes when it is rerouting or allow the option to mute it.

    Please remove or add the option to mute the chirp / chime that the app makes when it is rerouting. Sometimes I skip the turn on purpose but the chirp is annoying and interrupts the music.
