  1. Traffic jam notifications

    For example, I am on highway and 15 km in front of me is a trafic jam, so I want waze to notify me, that the trafic jam is there. Is that possible and is possible to add it into app? I was looking for it in settings, but I didn't found it.

  2. Taxi Features / Funcionalidades para taxis

    Develop options for taxi navigation such as:
    - Routes that have exclusive lanes of taxi use;
    - Proposed destination by proximity that has a shorter travel time for the passenger to end their route by walking. For example, if the navigation can determine that a point of up to 300 meters (parameter) of the destination will significantly reduce the travel time, this can be given as an option to the passenger.

    - Rotas que possuem faixas exclusivas de uso de taxi;
    - Proposta de destino por proximidade que tenha um tempo de percurso…

  3. Tarifs moyens des trajets

    nous avons systématiquement plusieurs itinéraires possibles, parfois certains ayant un temps similaire voir identiques. Il pourrait être intéressant de mettre en avant les tarifs des péages ainsi parfois entre 2 trajets de 45 minutes entre le 1er faisant prendre 3 péage pour un total par exemple de 10€ et l'autre trajets avec un seul péage a 3€ cela évite des frais inutile. ou même parfois il est peut être intéressant de rallonger de 5 minute si cela évite un péage coûteux. Waze pourrait se servir des données que nous lui transmettons sur notre type de véhicule et carburant comme le…

  4. Turn on the lights alert.

    In Brazil, even during the day it's mandatory to turn on the car lights when we drive in a route (highway).

    It would be very helpful there was an alert reminding us to do it each time we start driving on a highway.

    (No Brasil, mesmo durante o dia é obrigatório ligar os faróis ao dirigir numa estrada.
    Seria muito útil se houvesse um aviso lembrando de fazer isso cada vez em que começamos a dirigir numa rodovia.

  5. Add option to avoid toll roads in certain countries

    If a route spans across multiple countries, it would be nice to be able to tell Waze that I would like to avoid tolls in specific countries. For example if my route goes via three countries, I would like to avoid toll roads in Country 2 only, but still use them in Country 1 and Country 3.

  6. Keep Speed Limit Posted At All Times

    The speed limit only appears on the app when you go OVER the speed limit. It's also ILLEGAL to go UNDER the speed limit, yet the speed limit never appears and alerts you that you aren't going the speed limit. Going too fast or too slow are both dangerous and illegal, so the app should turn your speed red when you're going too slow, just like it does when you're going too fast AND the speed limit should always be up for us to see.

  8. User coud select correct lane

    In my country (Brazil), there are many places with Express & Local lanes running side by side.

    In that case when Waze makes the route and the traffic changes quickly, I decide to choose a different lane (for exemple express instead of local), I wanted to be able to "touch" the screen and select the correct lane, so Waze could re-route and show me the rights options to continue my route.

    Great news! Lane guidance feature is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

  9. Alerta de farois ligados em rodovias

    Com a nova lei no Brasil que obriga o farol baixo nas estradas ainda que de dia, o waze poderia emitir um alerta para confirmar que os faróis estão acesos sempre que acessar uma rodovia.

  11. Avoid express lanes

    It would be nice to be able to turn off Express Lanes, with the same toggle switch as the "Avoid Toll Roads" option. I almost never have passengers in my car, and therefore cannot ever take the Express Lanes, but the app keeps directing me to them. Express Lanes also occasionally have different exiting options, so it can sometimes change your entire route and make you miss exits you needed to take.

  12. Danger Area

    I suggest creating a dangerous areas alert feature as slums, streets or dangerous areas, with danger degree (high, medium or low) for assault, burglary, vandalism, etc. And the system always warn approach. The user can configure whether you want a route that deviates from the area or not, as you prefer the user.

  13. Carpool indication option

    Good afternoon,

    I am a daily Waze user, and have often wondered why the app does not have an option for carpoolers. I think it would tremendously help everyone if there was a switch to indicate if one is carpooling or not. I believe it would provide better ETAs and routes. For example, I can take the carpool lane on the freeway, which may be faster than taking streets as a solo driver. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts!

    Thank 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.

  14. Conditional use of toll roads if saves more than set percentage of time

    I live in Northern Virginia (US) where we have a growing network of high occupancy toll (HOT) lanes paralleling existing roads. These come up as separate roads in Waze as they have their own on ramps and off ramps. Just to make them more fun, they have variable tolling so when traffic is more congested on the "free" lanes the toll lanes cost goes higher. The speed limit is also higher on the toll lanes so they always come out as preferred over the regular lanes for navigation.

    The current Waze app allows selection to avoid or not avoid toll…

  17. - Include “Avoid hazardous area” as route options.

    We have seen many drivers get into slum areas that are really dangerous, with many episodes of people getting killed when entering on those areas in Rio de Janeiro, for example. I experienced this on other cities in Brazil and, sometimes, I really avoid using Waze because of this.
