Suicide hotline direct link
A direct link to suicide hotline or form of a helpline for people in a mental crisis. As a retired firefighter and now a part time incident manager I see and have seen many incidents that quick access to something like this may help prevent a life changing event.

"Leave earlier" setting that changes time to leave
Frequently I want to "arrive" 15 minutes early so I have time to find a parking spot, park my car, and then walk to the destination.
Because of this, I'd like to see a feature that allows me to specify an additional amount of time to add to the estimated drive time when determining what time I'll need to leave.
Ideally, there would be a setting to enable / disable the feature, and, when enabled, applied a specified amount of time to every planned drive. There should also be an override on a per planned drive basis.
The "Leave earlier"…

Shut Down UserVoice
Yes, the title is clickbait. But that really is the end goal!
Let’s get straight to the point: UserVoice has done an excellent job of centralizing Waze community suggestions in a tool specifically designed for that purpose. However, after years of cumulative use, it has become clear that managing it has grown increasingly difficult.
And now, entering the scene: Discuss.
Discuss has opened up a whole new range of possibilities for community interaction. It is a technically modern platform, with a pleasant user experience and strong functional versatility.
There is no doubt that Discuss is capable of absorbing all…

Emergency vehicle live intervention alert to clear traffic
Hi Waze Team,
I would like to suggest a feature that could significantly improve emergency response times and road safety.
When police cars, ambulances, fire trucks, or other emergency vehicles are actively responding to an intervention, they could activate a special “Emergency Mode” within Waze (restricted to verified official vehicles only).
Drivers using Waze nearby would then receive a real-time alert such as: “Emergency vehicle approaching – Please clear the way.”The alert could:
- Notify drivers within a certain radius ahead of the emergency vehicle
- Display a visual warning on the map
- Provide a voice alert encouraging…1 vote -

could different accounts link to each other for a limited period, for example, as a family we have a UK-based holiday, all meeting up at the booked holiday home, as we dont live in the same town we dont leave together, but if we linked we could see where they are, and there ETA. Also i know Uni friends that book B&B once a year and meet up all tarvelling from different parts of the country, they could link

Option to Delete Waze Chats
Right now with Waze Chats we only have the option to ( clear chat/ Block person or Mute ) so even after clearing the chat only the conversation disappears but the chat window stays always there, right now there is no option to delete Waze Chats from the Chat panel that have no reply or are not relevant anymore, as we mostly use this to reach out to new editors.
it would be great if we had the option to delete the chat completely and removed it from the Chat panel. and this would help editors to keep the relevant…3 votes -
Request to Strengthen and Actively Develop Waze for the Indian Market
Am writing to express a strong interest and concern regarding the current state of the Waze application in India. While Waze is technically available for download, its functionality and effectiveness in India are far from the experience offered in other countries such as the UAE, the United States, and several European regions, where the app performs exceptionally well.
Having personally used Waze in countries like the UAE, I can confidently say that it delivers superior real-time navigation, community-driven traffic updates, and smarter routing when compared to other navigation platforms. Unfortunately, in India, the app does not currently operate at the…

I’d love to see enhancements in Waze around routing options, voice directions, and app responsiveness. Sometimes routes don’t account.
I’d love to see enhancements in Waze around routing options, voice directions, and app responsiveness. Sometimes routes don’t account for closed/restricted roads or HOV/toll preferences correctly, voice directions are inconsistent, and certain app features or settings fail to respond. Even after basic troubleshooting (restart app/device, check permissions), the issues persist. Improvements in these areas would make Waze more reliable and user-friendly.

Stop button
Can’t always get out of Waze. Sometimes have to turn my phone off and then back on to properly exit the program. It’s a a pain and I can be walking around for days without Waze working in the background long after I’ve arrived at my destination.

No stopping anytime signs parking
I would like it if waze showed signs for knowing when no stopping anytime is because I see too many people thinking it’s ok to pick up and drop people off at a dangerous busy street and I would really like it if waze shows signs for no parking anytime happens all the time at the Rockville Metro Station on the West Side and it can cause a big backup and that includes fire lanes too

Alerting when a crosswalk is coming up whether it’s marked or unmarked
I’d like it if waze shows and alerts you when a crosswalk is coming up whether it’s marked or unmarked at an intersection because here in North America I hear and see too many pedestrians getting hit by cars and injured and another thing I had in mind is I would like it if waze shows and alerts you when you’re approaching a cyclist so that way if you didn’t see it ahead of time you’d know when to slow down

Implement Zendesk Support Tickets
Waze support should switch over to using Zendesk as their support ticket system rather than email only communication. For the following reasons:
Here’s a simple list of key benefits of using Zendesk as a support ticket system (compared to relying on email alone):
Centralized ticketing system — All support requests are organized into trackable tickets with unique IDs, preventing messages from getting lost or buried in email threads.
Multi-channel support — Handles inquiries from email, chat, social media, phone, and more in one unified dashboard, so agents see the full customer history without switching apps.
Better organization and tracking —…

Have you thought about making a Biker Waze? Most bikers i know use waze but it could be taylored for then with some tweaks.
Make a biker waze that has add-ons taylored for the bikers needs, for instance a community tab where the biker community can put events going on for those traveling and that's open to the public, even a sos tab for bikers that break down. Bikers will go out of their way to help other bikers. There are a lot more ideas that I have so hit me up and let's make it happen. Something I'd even pay a monthly fee for if done correctly.
