  2. I would love to add a girl group/band option for the voices

    It would be awesome to have a girl group sound as one of the options. I think it would be awesome to have, and it would be even more awesome if I was the voice.

  3. Wouldn't it be great to be able to exclude a freeway or particular road from your planned route?

    I already summed it up in the title, you kids are the pros.. But I would love to have more options for routes and options to avoid a freeway or major thoroughfare.

    Oh and just an irrelevant side note; that American woman's navigation voice, ug I can't listen to it. She sounds like your mean teacher from middle school- but the American guy is great.

  4. מיפוי מגורים בקיבוץ

    ניווט בתוך קיבוץ הוא לפעמיים לא פשוט ולא תמיד יש ילד על אופניים שיכול לקחת אותך למקום או משפחה .
    מציע שתהיה לקיבוץ אפשרות תת מספרים למבנים כך שכדי לבקר את דודי בקיבוץ אייל מספיק שארשום אייל 43 ואגיע.

  6. navigation option for only part of journey

    When putting in destination have choice to limit navigation to only portions of the journey. I may be in a strange place and not know how to get on the route home, or I may be home, know how to get close to my destination but not the last few miles.
    Ideally WAZE would offer options for different distances.

  7. Detour capability

    I would like for the ability to determine a detour to the current route. For example, if the highway you are on is blocked, slow or closed due to an accident, you can push a detour option/button and select the distance of the detour (1/2 mile, 1 mile, 2 miles, 5 miles, 10 miles...) or maybe the system can suggest the detour length based on what it knows of the traffic conditions ahead. Once your determined detour distance is exhausted, you are routed back to your original route. Many GPS Nav systems today have this capability/feature and is very useful.…

  8. This is an assisted process

    Waze just did something beautiful today. He/She/It asked me "Are we going to XXX place?" I've been waiting for that kind of event. Technology should be doing much more work than we are actually experiencing. Waze should not be just a navigator but a road assistant. A rolling Siri. Not just an interface but a behavior. Not an app but a mate.

    In that line of thinking, Waze could be more playful. Not just telling you where to go, but adding value because Waze knows you. For example, If Waze is responsible enough for remembering not to leave your child…

  9. "What's Closer?"

    The other day, I had to go buy some groceries and had three choices, Walmart, Target or Costco - they selll the cheapest detergent. The decision came down to which one was closest. As opposed to individually searching for each location, it would be great to have a feature that offers several text boxes where I can enter each destination to compare distances, and add checkpoints... all at once. I'm just lazy.

  10. Wrong Directions

    Please fix the app. It takes you the longest route possible and brings you to the BACK of houses or buildings. As a professional using this app for work this is very annoying.

  11. בעייה

    שלום חברים,
    לאחרונה אני נתקל כמעט בכל נסיעה (ואני כל הזמן מפעיל waze) שהניווט פתאם מתנתק, המפה מסתחררת ומחילה לנווט בהוראות לא קשורות על ככרות וכו'.
    כשמדובר בדרך מוכרת זה פחות אקוטי אבל בדרך לא מוכרת זה אקוטי מאד מאד.
    ברור שזה לא קורה רק לי.
    אודה לכם על הסבר ובעיקר על תיקון.
    תודה ובהצלחה

  12. Map scale indicator

    Have you ever wondered how many miles long that traffic jam is up ahead? I sure have, but Waze gives no indication of distances on a map. How about one of the little bars that indicates the scale of the current map view - you know 1 inch equals a mile, etc.

  13. Show distance covered and time passed while driving

    It would be great if waze can display the time passed and the distance i covered in km or miles since i started driving when my app is running. This can be optional and the distance covered display can be turned on and off using settings.

  14. Prendre en compte le nombre de feux et le temps d'attente moyen à ces feux

    Bonjour,

    Avant toutes choses sachez que je suis très content de l'application et qu'en aucun cas la suite de ce mail n'a valeur négative.

    Aujourd'hui, en effectuant un trajet, l'application m'a fait prendre un certain itinéraire. Sur cet itinéraire il y a un feu trèèèèèès long. Si l'on arrive au feu vert je pense que ce trajet est effectivement le plus rapide, mais si l'on tombe en début de feu rouge comme aujourd'hui je pense qu'il est préférable de passer par la rocade qui elle n'a aucun feu.

    Mon idée est donc la suivante: ne serait-il pas possible que l'application…

  16. In the navigation screen, a button to make api calls to Shazam would be nice.

    When I am driving and using Waze, it would be extremely useful to have the easy ability to shazam a song that may be playing on the radio. Having an API call/relationship with Shazam would mean you don't need to reinvent the wheel, and my id'd songs would remain with the same app I always use to id songs.

    James Corden would be a great voice over for the app. He's a superstar and super popular with multiple demographics.

  19. Livemap missing translation

    Don't know where to report livemap bugs, so here it goes: you have a missing translation in your (Rails?) server :)

    After 0.23 miles, [missing "en.livemap.route.instructions.op.exit_right" translation]
