More fuel types to Waze
Currently Waze only allows four different fuel types for fuel stations. I believe that number is not enough. For example in Finland we currently have 95E10, 98E5, Diesel and E85 as options in Waze. In reality many fuel stations offer renewable/green diesel, natural or bio-gas and some even have AdBlue (DEF) from a pump. Currently around half of my countries fuel types can not have prices set for in Waze.
So, my suggestion is that community members should be able to add a price to any fuel type available at a given station, wich would require an increase to the…

CHANGE SPEED CAMERA AND RED LIGHT CAMERA ICONS BACK TO THE OLD ICON OR GIVE US THE OPTION TO CHOOSE.
Waze changed the speed camera and red light camera icon on the map and it’s so much harder to see now.
Just got a ticket for going 2 mph over the speed limit because I didn’t see the camera on my map

Bring back the old race car icon (Indy style)
Bring back the old race car icon (Indy style). I like that one so much better than the new one. This new one looks like some sort of bug. Ewww! Or have both options?

When entering a traffic alert, if we enter "standstill" you should be marking the traffic on the map AHEAD of where we are not behind us.
When entering a traffic alert, if we enter "standstill" you should be marking the traffic on the map AHEAD of where we are not behind us. We click "standstill" when we hit the traffic not after we left it.

Swap control position
Since newer car displays are often very large, drivers struggle to reach the notification button to warn other users about traffic etc, since it's on the right side.
It would be useful to have an option to swap controls on the screen to have it close to the steering wheel and to avoid distractions while trying to reach it.2 votes -
Display toll price along with Toll Hazard
The idea would be applicable for users approaching toll booths. My suggestion is to display the toll price at the same time the Toll Hazard is displayed.

Update of alerts/incidents on the route based on the progress of the route.
Update of alerts/incidents on the route based on the progress of the route. Currently, when you access the route view with the button on the right (up arrow), a start/end line with the incidents is displayed. But these incidents always appear from the start and not from the current point of the route. I think they should be updated, since alerts that have already happened can appear and confuse the driver.

Battery Saver always on
Option to have battery saver always-on by default. It's a poor user experience to have to set this manually for EVERY journey for those that want to have the battery as high as practitable before exiting the car and/or save their OLED screens from burning. Not everyone uses a charger in the car. And most phones use OLED screens.
'Automatically turn on' is there as an option, but it waits for battery to become low before kicking in, which rather defeats the object of saving battery (it's too late if it's already become low!) and meanwile you risk burning the…

There is a problem with the application on the Android system for car screens
The problem is that the search option covers part of the display and the area containing the map is unacceptable, so that the left half is useless while the right half only contains the car and navigation. The search should be minimized and the driving should be placed in the middle and not only in half of the screen
The second problem is that the zoom system is not practical. When I accelerate to a speed of 80 km or more, the automatic zoom is very, very far away, so that you can discover the whole city, but you will…

input from screen
when a screen for choice pops up, your choices are in boxes that are up and down from each other. when you go to make a selection and you’re traveling a bump can make you select the wrong choice. My suggestion is to make the choices with boxes on the left or right that way a bump won’t give you the wrong answer.

Shortcuts for Hazard Reports
When using the Hazard Report feature in Waze I often find that:
1) I use 1 to 3 reports a LOT more often than any others.
2) I often find that selecting these hazard icons using the current method is fiddly, dangerous when driving, and slow, resulting in the report being sent late, often about 100 meters or more past the hazard.
My improvement idea is to add 1 to 3 hazard SHORTCUTS that "slide out" for selection from the existing hazard report icon (yellow triangle) on the FIRST touch, they would then "slide in" again after selection to avoid…

Driving Police
I've got a feature idea I'm sure everyone appreciates. An addition to the cop reporting that includes ones driving on the road. You know how there's no "report ahead" as you speed a little, then the car you pass up you see the cop car features better and slam the brakes? Add a reporting feature that says something like -"Caution police driving ahead" Still there? -And have it set to ask every 5 miles on the highway Does that make sense?

Bring Back Pave
Bring back the Pave function! This could be coded just to the user so they can use it to help get the roads set up in WME. Driving is an extremely useful way to get started with new roads and improves the map editing process. Maybe someone needs to be above a level 1 editor to use it, but it’s extremely helpful if used as part of editing low geometry builds.

Keep things the same
Keep the interface the same changing the user interface should not change the only thing that should change is the map updating not the interface if someone wants to see a quick overview the button should already be visible and easy to tap on most likely the person using the app is the driver having to stair at their phone and find buttons or click more than one button just to see the route as a whole quickly instead if of having to search and look for things you should also put up a notification pop up when you first…

Mistake in the app implementation
Mistake in the app implementation for users in Cyprus as now a user cannot add any icons on the map.
This change was implemented to deter users from pointing where police radars were on the map but now no icons at all can be placed which beats the purpose of the app.

Add "unlimited speed limit" sign for Germany
In Germany, 70% of the highways have to actual speed limit. This is currently idicated by no speed limit sign at all. However, this might also mean that the speed limit is unknown.
Instead, the "unlimited" speed sign could be used that is used in Germany to indicate that no speed limit applies anymore (link to an image: https://www.bussgeldkatalog.org/wp-content/uploads/282.png) This is sign 282.This could be easily accomplished by either adding a checkbox to the editor to set that no speed limit applies, but this might requite some engineering.
An easier solution would be to only update the app…3 votes -
