  1. Navigation voice settings should be persistent.

    More often than not, I know where I'm going, but would like to know about traffic incidents/alerts. As such I like to use waze in alerts only mode. However, every so often, waze will decide that it will turn itself back to full voice navigation even though I did not select that. I do not know what triggers it, but it does continue to happen. Just when I think it's going to stay, the settings get switched. It's quite annoying that it can't keep a setting.

  3. Per-Event Sound Toggling (or volume control)

    Like the person who posted "Pause playback during audio alerts (for audiobooks)", I find that, on long commutes and during audiobook playback (music isn't as important) that the deluge of audio alerts from Waze makes me turn them all off the more familiar w/ the roads I get.

    However, yesterday AM, I missed that there were 'Police Ahead' because I had all the sounds turned off (much like the 'low battery beep' on a smoke detector) and had an unpleasant encounter with an officer of the law.

    I'd like the ability to, on a per-event level, toggle the sound on/off…

  5. replace top bar with reports buttons

    The top bar displays some information which is useless for navigation. Maybe it would be better to replace these with buttons for reporting issues. Make it bigger, too, so those buttons can be pressed easily.

  6. I just exceeded my alert limit, and wasn't able to report a major accident. All the alerts were valid, it was just a really bad day.

    I just exceeded my alert limit, and wasn't able to report a major accident. All the alerts were valid, it was just a really bad day. I think it's time you allowed advanced users (who've reached a certain level) a higher limit.

  8. Better support for intents

    GMM supports many more intents than Waze, and what waze does support does not always work.

    For example, Waze can handle http://maps.google.com/maps, but, Google's web maps now uses just http://maps.google.com/
    And you don't handle https:// at all.

    The geo:lat,lng intent seems to occasionally work. But not consistently. Didn't try geo:?q=... types of intents.

    And of course, there are all sorts of country specific maps.google.* variations that aren't handled. Don't know if Android intents handle wild cards or not. It appears that GMM explicitly lists everything.

  9. Reduce "Switch off" in Android notication center

    Please don't expand automatically the "Switch off" option in the Android notification center.
    The best is too let user expand it manually like other applications and so only 1 line will be used by Waze instead 2+.

  10. Add mode that makes only 1 announcement per turn. Otherwise, continuous jabber drives me crazy, particularly on familiar commutes.

    Giving a pre-pre warning and then a warning and then the actual turn is extremely annoying when it is a route that is familiar. There should be a mode that just gives a pre-warning, essentially alerting you which of several routes you might take based on traffic.

  11. Add ability to report Blown Auto Light Bulb

    Could you create a simple form whereby drivers/passengers could report blown headlights/tail lights of cars around us? It could be very simple; enter license plate number, state, front or back, and left or right blown light. No personal information could be supplied, keep it totally annonymous. A great safety feature for your patrons.

  13. Crashing issues on Android

    I think waze is great, unfortunately it doesn't work on my new Samsung Galaxy Y Pro B5510. Every time I try to enter a destination or touch just about anything on the screen it crashes.

  14. Haptic Feedback

    Please add haptic feedback. When I report something on the road, I would like to know from the screen vibrating that I have successfully hit the button my finger was lasted headed towards when I looked away to look back at the road. I have another driving app that uses it and I have found it to be very useful.

  18. Loading Status

    I find that usually waze appears to load quite quickly, but will then freeze intermittently and loosing GPS lock whilst actually finishing 'loading' (Contacting server etc). It would be good it some form of message or progress bar could be shown so that it is obvious that it is still loading and not actually frozen

  20. Gas station ID. Cumberland Farms vs Gulf

    Please recognize Cumberland Farms gas stations as different than Gulf. CF gas stations take a special check card that gets me 10 cents off a gallon. Take some cues from Gas Buddy! Thanks.
