About traffic information
We propose the use of Bing Maps traffic information in combination with Waze bots as an effective means of responding to natural disasters. This combination will improve disaster response by providing fast and accurate road closure information.
First, Bing Maps traffic information provides real-time traffic conditions across a wide geographic area. This can be used to quickly determine which areas are affected in the event of a disaster. However, for information on road closures and other detailed road conditions, community-based approaches such as Waze bots can be beneficial.
Waze bots provide instant information on traffic conditions and road closures by…

Improve contrast on the Navigation Screen
The top of the nav screen in the daytime is black with blue and white letters. There is not enough contrast to see the words when looking into the backlight of a windshield. Google maps uses white on green which is much easier to see. Please fix this.

Treasure Map
I would love some alternate designs for the map appearance, but most of all I could love an old-timey treasure map look. And maybe a way to customize the route design so instead of a purple line it could be a red dotted line, again like on a pirate's treasure map.

Non-Vehicle Car Icons
I would love some cute, simplistic car icons that aren't cars/vehicles:
- A little caterpillar wiggling across the map
- A little spider scuttling across the screen
- A sail boat / pirate ship the bobs like it's on water
- A beach ball bouncing down the roadI'm sure there could be other ideas but these were just the first I thought of that might work.

Touch-n-go locations
I would like to suggest to put up touch-n-go reload locations in waze itself so wazers would be easy to locate touch-n-go locations during certain time.(example: midnight). It would be really helpful for us wazers to locate touch-n-go top up locations in waze itself. Thank you.

Colourblind friendly options
It would be great to be able to choose colour palette/s that are colourblind friendly (those who have trouble with particular colours and their shades such as reds, greens etc - such as protanope, dueteranope, tritanope).
While it would be good to have preset colour palette options…it would be better if we could choose our own set of colours that suit our individual preferences and saved into our profile.

New Navigation Vehicles
I'm not experiencing any problems. Waze is great... Better than Google Maps... Only thing I WOULD like to see is the satellite view on Waze, but that's minor...
I would simply like to suggest a new vehicle. May I suggest the 1. V-Series Cadillac Escalade & Escalade ESV, 2. Chevy Tahoe & Suburban High County and 3. GMC Yukon Denali & Yukon Denali XL?
I think these additional options will be very cool. Please also remember to add the panoramic mooroof...
Thank you in advance

one-way traffic in the app
It would be nice to make segments of one-way traffic in the app recognisable, even without a planned route, for example with small arrows on that segment.

Use my own car
We should be able to use our own cars as icons. It's just taking a picture and uploading it to a database. Year, make, color and model will be just fine. I mean the app is good. But this would make it iconic.

Traffic congestion on Live Map is getting in the way of the blue line for the route.
I'm not sure how to post screenshots on this site but the orange line signifying traffic congestion is on top of the blue line for the route. I think it should be more on the bottom layer.

Add More Car Icons
I would like to see more options for car icons. Rather than Waze spending time creating the icons, Waze could provide specifications for icons and users could then create and upload their own car icons. A handheld GPS unit I used to have had this capability. It was great to be able to select things like the U.S.S. Enterprise, or Defiant, or Enterprise-E, or Airwolf, or K.I.T.T... or whatever users could come up with.

yellow color makes it easier to read the black speed numbers.
The speed sign in Waze is hard to read!. My suggestion is that you change the color to the same as the signs on the road, the yellow color makes it easier to read the black speed numbers.

Support for multilingualism
Hi All.
Since this forum was recently opened, I would like to point out, at the beginning, a very important matter that I find shared between the localization community and the responsible for WME and the app in general.
While we are active and translating the app in real-time, we do not find sufficient support to represent and invest this effort in reality.
I have previously spoken about this matter, but I will repeat it in the hope that we will find someone who listens to us this time.app support for multilingualism in everything is not lacking, but what…

Zoom in
When approaching a roundabout or junction I have noticed that the Waze map does not ZOOM IN, plus Waze often places a BIG blue road name or number label over the roundabout. This often hides most of the exits or junctions making it difficult to see what one you need to take. I would like to see this improved one day.

Highlighted Towns & Cities
Many sat navs do not HIGHLIGHT (make bold in colour) the borders or area of towns or cities on the map, they just add a name. Being able to see when you are approaching a town or city would be beneficial to any driver, especially if you need to search for a POI.
