    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.

  2. Routes should default to Map View instead of List View

    Upon setting a destination and clicking Routes, I would like the default view to be Maps instead of List. Please make this an option.

  3. It would be amazing to have traffic conditions and route details based on the HOV lane. Thanks!

  4. centering

    can you please make the "auto-centering" optional. It is really annoying to have it auto-center when I am looking at something else.

    Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already takes license plate restrictions into account, in many parts of the world. To enable this feature, add your license plate details under Settings > Car details > License plate.

  7. For Australian roads, no right hand turns at busy intersections unless there is a traffic light

    The reason why I don't always use waze is because it has the habit of making routes involving right hand turns at busy intersections with no traffic lights. This is a bit issue in Countries that drive on the left side of the road.

    Gostaria que o Waze indicasse nos mapas as praças de pedagio informando os preços.

    Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze calculates and displays toll prices in many parts of the world. To know when this becomes available in your country, stay tuned on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

  9. Toll Prices

    It would be nice if we could have a Toll Prices option. Low-under $3; Med - $3 to $5; High over $5. This could prepare other Wazers for how long they would be in traffic if the toll is too high to take the toll lane. Thank you for considering this option.

  13. 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.

  14. custom language

    Use a pattern of sounds, pings, dings etc. as an alternative to language navigation instructions. For example, instead of saying "in 300 feet, turn right" - provide a moderate-high frequency "ding" sound, which repeats 3 times. It should be carefully designed using expert sound engineers and be reviewed by users. You want it to be minimal and effective and obviously not annoying. After getting used to it, drives will find that they need less attention to process audible signals.

    By default compass is displayed on screen tap.
    To always show it go to Settings – Map display – Quick access – Always show. In Map display settings it is also possible to lock North.

  17. 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…

  18. Speed limit would be crucial. It is honestly the only thing holding this near perfect app back. Users could even upload limits as thy change

    Users could post speeds as they change on roads and can be confirmed by users traveling on the same roads as a pop up which could then be turned off in options if a user doesn't like it. Only thing holding this near perfect app back

  19. Express Lanes - Avoid Express Lanes option

    A nice feature would be a setting to avoid Express Lanes, like the ones on I95 (I-95) that require the EZ-Pass. Currently the only way to do this is to enable "Avoid Toll Roads." However this makes my route avoid the tunnel or bridge that I DO want to use. Avoiding the tunnel or bridge would add 20 or more minutes to my drive.
    Basically, separate out the luxury Express Lanes from toll roads and create another setting for them.
    Thank you.
