use past traffic statistics when calculating routes
waze could save statistics about average time it takes to pass each street at different times of the day (but only on work days - not vacations or weekends where traffic patterns are different). this past statistics can be valuable when routing - today, waze could lead me through areas that are more congestion prone since at the moment these areas are quite vacant. using past statistics when routing would show that by the time I'll get to these areas, there'll probably be a congestion so other paths might be better.

Time-based Map Topology
In Washington, DC specifically, and in other cities around the United States (and probably around the world), certain turns are illegal between 7:00-9:30 am or 4:00-6:30 pm. More challenging, Rock Creek Park - a major commuter route that is often utilized by Waze - allows southbound traffic only between 7:00-9:30 am on mon-fri, and northbound traffic only between 4:00-6:30 pm on mon-fri. Waze is unable to factor in these restrictions, and becomes of limited usability during these times. Its really frustrating for me, and my partner. Please, please, please fix this? I'm afraid one of our phones might go flying…

I can't believe Waze doesn't recognise What3Words.
I can't believe Waze doesn't recognise What3Words. All our emergency services use it to locate exactly where the emergency is exactly located. Even the road recovery organisations like the AA, RAC etc. use What3Words.
Surely this is a must for a leading navigation app. As an example, I broke down on an off road location & the rescue organisation had great difficulty finding me. Eventually I was rescued, just short of an hour searching for my car. Had Waze What3Words built in, there would not have been any wasted time looking for me.14 votes -
اضافه کردن نام خیابان ها به راهنمای صوتی
اضافه کردن نام خیابان ها و کوچه ها به راهنمای صوتی زبان پارسی. در مسیرهایی که چند شاخه میشود پیدا کردن مسیر اصلی فقط با شنیدن گردش به چپ و یا راست سخت و خطرناک است. اما شنیدن نام خیابان به راحت تر پیدا کردن مسیریابی کمک میکند.

Android auto - setting avoid highways
Intro.
Sometimes im in my motorbike and enable the setting "avoid highways". Then if I forget to disable it and drive my car with android auto:1.- I canno disable the setting from there, therefore, al the time navigation is wrong.
- shoul be nice a setting in AAuto.2.- Also Waze could be smart enough to understand that Im prefering driving using highways.. so at the third "redirection" could make a questio like "do you want to continue using highways?"

Popup for Ads while Navigating
Great work! I am really digging the revamped UI. I like this app because it actually makes my commutes fun. Waze has access to very rich data, which gives me complete context-awareness.
One thing that I would like to point out is the way in which ads have been implemented. It greys out my entire navigation screen with the top half portion being taken up by the ad itself. Don't you think this is a little dangerous? For visual people like myself who likes to have full view of the map to lead my way, this is very disruptive and…

Entry points depending on vehicle type
Entry points depending on type of vehicle can be a very nice feature. For example, if you're driving a private vehicle and you're going to a mall, your entry point should be the parking lot, but for an Uber the entry point should be the front door of the place.

Rest Area
There are two critical items missing from Waze that are available on all other GPS mapping systems (including navigation in my 2014 car):
1) Waze should show the distance to the next rest area on major interstates and highways in the USA. It helps drivers know if they need to stop sooner at a normal exit or wait until there is a rest area soon. I currently have to run BOTH my car and Waze app for this info and it is not good. Especially when Waze is more accurate for directions and time to arrival
2) Waze should also…

Search along my route
When searching for a restaurant when I'm en route, don't tell me about the restaurant 2 exits behind me, tell me about the ones ahead and along my route. Maybe suggest a place along my route in an estimated time frame. i.e., look for a place to eat lunch between noon and 1p or breakfast at around 7am
Similar look ahead for hotels or stores.13 votes -

Road Colouring on Average Speed Check Zone
When driving in an average speed check zone, Waze doesn’t say when you have left it - so can be driving for miles past the end.
Can Waze change the colour or pattern of the road to show drivers when they are in the zone and not just passing the cameras.13 votes -
3 differents driver profil
Today, the user profile is not taking into account by the algorithm. I hope in the future Waze will propose, not only the fatest road, but the road adapted to the user.
We will use for example 3 different profiles :
- the busy driver : this will always proposes the fastest road but it will add more weights to highway where overtaking car is possible
- the thrifty driver : always proposing the road with the cheapest path (combination of distance, height difference, ...)
- the tourist driver: this will propose road with points of interest (monuments, landscape).I
