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…

"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.

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.

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.

Faster Voice Navigation Cadence
She speaks much slower than, say, Google Maps navigation. Speeding the prompts' delivery minimizes interruptions to other audio you might be listening to.

Notify when an accident is reported on my current route how far away it is
When an accident is reported on my current route, report how far I currently am from that accident so I can decide if I want to take an alternate route or if I am far enough away to decide if that accident has been cleared. Is there an option to report an accident has been cleared? That would be cool too . . .

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

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

Integration of data from europe single access points for traffic data
In the European Union every member state have the create a single point of access for (realtime) traffic information. In germany this single point of access is called MDM (http://www.mdm-portal.de/en/). Here you find partners which are providing traffic information which can be relevant for your service. For example some road operativers providing information regarding the realtime traffic volume or road works on this data marketplace for free. The marketplace acts as an broker between the data provider and the user of the data (e. g. your company). You should take a look on the MDM and perhaps you…

Dear Waze people - most of the time I love your app, but sometimes
...it goes crazy. Is there any way you can prevent it from doing that? It can't find the directions accurately. It will tell me to turn when I don't really need to. Crazy stuff like that.

Announcements depending on speed
I recommend that Waze adjust the "trigger distance" for pre-alerts when traveling quickly.
For example, currently Waze pre-alerts "In one-tenth of a mile ..." regardless of speed.
If you are driving 60 MPH, you cover the one-tenth of a mile in a mere 6-seconds ... by that time, Waze is already alerting you (AGAIN) that it's time to make the turn.
I'm all for voice alerts ... but when the app gabs for 10-seconds straight because of back-to-back announcements, eh....

Make a segment routable or not depending on atmospheric conditions
Some segments (dirt specially) are routables or not depending on dry or wet conditions.
Since there are Apps. that report rain conditions on specific places, use that information to decide if some segments can be used to navigation.16 votes -
Police Heat Map
What about a feature that shows popular police trap locations. There are locations in my town that are popular with police to setup speed traps. If those areas could glow blue like traffic areas glow red, I think that could be a great feature. If you could use the information that wazers report, then that info could be processed through an algorithm that show the high probability areas.

Shaq's navigation was the most fun thing I've encountered in waze! I couldn't wait to get back in the car and just drive until i hear the awaited BBQ chicken alert!

Prevent Waze from sending drivers on roads with no cell coverage.
Waze sent us onto a snowy mountain road with a 20 car pileup blocking it. There were very dangerous conditions on this road. Wazers were unable to connect to the network because there was no cell coverage on the road. In those cases where there is no cell coverage Waze should somehow check with emergency services.
