Passenger mode
I love sharing and reporting road information to other drivers – even as a passenger. However, there are no options for me to do that if I am not driving myself (in a car or bus, or even as a pedestrian). This is strange, given that the driver shouldn’t be distracted from the road anyways. Therefore, I am proposing a new function: The Waze Passenger mode. There, users can report anything on the road, without navigating. This could be designed in a gamification environment, so that people are incentivized to make the maps better.

Use the Bluetooth mesh for alerts when there is no internet connection (like Bitchat)
Using Bluetooth mesh technology to create a network where each device sends an alert to the next device, until one of the devices is connected to the internet and that alert is sent to the network. Just like it's done with the Bitchat app.
Many times we drive a very long stretch without internet access, and important events happen on the road that we need other drivers to see. With this Bluetooth network activated, we can share with drivers near us, and they can share with those closest to them, eventually reaching someone who has satellite internet or even mobile…23 votes -

wrong navigation for address
Wrong location on Waze
Please note that waze misdirects its users as to the following address:
Ketzot Hachoshen 22, Modiin Ilit, Israel.
Currently typing this address sends the driver to the wrong side of the street.
There is no option to add a map, so please check Google Maps and fix accordingly. Needless to say, this mistakes causes difficulties and delays, particularly for shipping services.
Thank you for taking care of this ASAP.1 vote -
Reports Ahead
The Reports Ahed list is now filled with reports of Speed Camera Ahead, making it almost impossible to see the actually important information (traffic, lane blocked, etc.). I have turned OFF ALL of the camera selections and the list is stilll filled with USELESS information.

Seasonal Stork Nest Reporting in Waze
A seasonal, optional Waze feature allowing users to report roadside stork nests and optionally indicate the presence and number of chicks.
One-tap reporting, minimal distraction, visible only in spring–summer.
Aggregated anonymous data could support bird protection NGOs and research programs, turning Waze into a simple citizen-science tool without map clutter.1 vote -
📌 Waze Feedback Note: Emoji Report Library Feature How the feature works: I would love to suggest a new feature called Emoji Report Librar
📌 Waze Feedback Note: Emoji Report Library Feature
How the feature works:
I would love to suggest a new feature called Emoji Report Library to enhance the Waze experience. This feature will allow users to:
• Tap “Report Emoji” under the main report button.
• Access a full emoji library (based on Apple emojis since most people use iPhones and the visuals are familiar).
• Select any emoji to describe something they want to report (e.g. 💩 for waste on the road, 🐍 for a snake, 🔧 for broken signs, etc).
• After selecting an emoji, users are shown the…1 vote -

Prevent drivers from spamming map editors with update requests (URs)
Waze volunteer map editors have, over a number of years, have raised concerns about the ability for app users, whether intentionally or unintentionally, to submit a high volume of map update requests through the app and other sources. This issue has been consistently raised by volunteer editors at all levels, including editors, area managers, state and country managers, as well as local and global champs who are on the ground editing the map daily. It has also been discussed at local, mega, and global meetups.
To date, this security concern has not yet been addressed, which is why I am…

Suggestion: Option to View All Reports
I’d like to suggest adding an option to show all nearby reports, including those that were downvoted. In some areas, police officers reportedly downvote valid police reports to hide their presence, which makes the information less reliable for users. An optional “show all” mode would give users full visibility when they want it.
Thank you for considering this.

Implement reporting of badly fixed issues by moderators
To allow reporting when a moderator will check an issue as solved, even though he didn't change something. Maybe an option to attach an image will be good confirmation of the true situation at the disputed location.
This is a big issue in my town of Skopje, as there are speed camera alerts on many intersections and only some of them are true. The reported issues go to a couple moderators which are not very effective in their work.

We need the road blocked button back. There is no way of signalling that a road is blocked and no way through.
There used to be a road blocked button. Now only lanes blocked. I have numerous examples of Waze showing a route through a blocked road. Alerts on road works or lanes blocked but still we a guided through where a road is blocked.

Since I drive alone frequently and use Waze almost exclusively, I would love to voice report any hazard, vehicle, or accident
I’d like to say “Waze report debris on right (or left) side of road.” As an example.
