planning a route via website
Any reason why I cannot get directions using the web via pc? Sooooo I have to resort to mapquest or google maps while at my pc? It would be nice to plan my route out, save it and then access it on my smartphone. This is already possible on mapquest ......
6 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, a live map is available as a web version, which you can use to see real time traffic reports. Search for Waze live map.

I'd like to navigate to parkingplaces more easy. Now not every P possibility is shown on my map.
Not every parkingplace (P) is shown on the map. It would be very easy to select (or even see) the P on the map and navigate to it. Nice and easy way to navigate into a city.

Create a "via" function
Say I'm at home and I'm going out but I need to stop at the bank on the way. My closest branch is the opposite direction of the way I need to go ultimately. If I could type in my destination, but then tell Waze I want to go "via" Citibank, then Waze could calculate whether it's better from a traffic perspective for me to drive the wrong direction now, or if there's a Citibank on my route that would be faster overall.

A way the app utilizes the contact list better, currently it doesn't find some of my contacts. I would have to manually enter the address.
I tried putting in several different ways to my location which was a daycare. My contact which stated daycare would not pull up even if i specifically have it look in contacts. As well as when i entered the name of the daycare it pulls up a location several hundred miles away, when the closest one was 3 miles
1 voteMake sure that in your contact list the address is indicated in the proper field of your contact profile.

Temporary HOV/Carpool lanes
If I'm in a 2+ vehicle, it would be nice if a route preferred HOV lanes. In my area, there is a "temporary" HOV lane which has a different direction in morning and evening. (See US-93 between Boston and Braintree MA)
20 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

Add ability to route via a gas station
Of all the POIs out there, gas stations are the most important. Waze should be able to incorporate a gas station stop into its directions. It should also be possible for users to report the location of gas stations from the app.

while we still need to improve this a bit (work on special scenarios that involve ramps and other special road types), the issue should be fixed. If you still notice problems with it, please writ to alpha@waze.com

record my present location like favorite
now it's difficult to add favorites.
I think, it's would be great to be able to add our location like a new favorite location.
People are use to be in their favorite locations2 votesThis can already be done today…
On touch screen you have to do a long press on your location (or any location on the map) and you will see the option to save it.
On non-touch you just need to hit the main button (usually “OK” or “enter”) and this will allow you to save the location.If you feel like this description is not good enough, please write to alpha@waze.com

Escolha de rota mais segura
Olá, boa tarde!
Gostaria de dar uma sugestão para o Desenvolvimento do aplicativo Waze.
Na maioria das vezes, nos deparamos com situações em que digitamos os destinos e seguimos a melhor sugestão Waze, essa baseada no tempo ou distância mais curta possível.
Porém, em várias dessas viagens, a rota mais curta ou mais rápida, passa por lugares perigosos e/ou suspeitos. Essa é uma realidade brasileira a qual acontece em muitos dos casos.
E sem o conhecimento do usuário, tomamos esses riscos pela economia de minutos.A minha sugestão seria:
Antes do usuário aceitar a rota/viagem e clicar na instrução para…0 votesGreat news! Dangerous zones alert is implemented in Waze. This allows you to choose not only the fastest route to your destination, but also to avoid suspicious areas on your route. When searching for a destination Waze always gives you several routes to choose from and it’s up to you to decide which one to take.
