Toads on roads
In the spring – March, April – when driving along ponds, lakes or rivers, toads migration is observed on the roads. To reduce the death of these amphibians, Nature Conservation Agency is organizing the “MISSION TOAD” or "TOADS on ROADS" campaign in Latvia. It is known that WAZE could inform other drivers about animals on the road some time ago. But currently it is not possible to report it. Could this function be returned? It would be a great contribution to the preservation of natural values.

Prioritize Full CarPlay Integration: HUD & Instrument Cluster Directions
Hello Waze Team,
This post is to strongly urge the prioritization of full integration with Apple CarPlay to enable turn-by-turn navigation on built-in Head-Up Displays (HUD) and digital instrument clusters.
This remains one of the most critical safety and convenience features missing from Waze, and it's a primary reason why many drivers reluctantly switch to Apple Maps when using CarPlay.
The Technical Framework Exists
We understand that enabling this feature is entirely possible within Apple's provided framework. The process is initiated by implementing the mapTemplateShouldProvideNavigationMetadata(_:) delegate method. By returning true from this function, Waze can signal to CarPlay that it…

New Functions for Linking External Provider Locations (Google Pin)
In the past, the WME PIE Script provided a valuable feature that allowed us to directly view the exact location of a place on Google Maps overlaid on the Waze map. Recently, this functionality was removed at Waze's request.
Most editors, including myself, consider this feature essential. Taking this opportunity, I suggest we request improvements to this linking tool. Below are some current issues and proposed solutions:
Issue 1:
Currently, WME allows the same CID to be added multiple times to the same place. This creates disorganization in the links.Solution 1:
Block duplicate additions of the same place. In…131 votes -

Make Waze more useful for buses and trucks
Make Waze more useful for buses and trucks. So i can choose that i drive one of those vehicles and not just between only a car, taxi or motorcycle. And can specify how tall the vehicle is. And Waze then navigates you so that you arrive without suddenly arriving at a bridge that is too low, for example

Display shield AND road name in the app
Please consider displaying one or more shields along with a road name in the app. Ideally, we could have the option to display more than one shield, but at least one would be very helpful. Other nav apps already do this today.
Currently, we can either display a single shield on a road OR the primary road name. Many roads are known by a common name but also have one or more shields that can be very important for navigation. Some intersections have a road name sign, while others only have a shield sign. Frequently, locals may know the road…

טיימר לעקיפה בטוחה בכביש הערבה
הבעיה:
הקטע שבין צומת הערבה לצומת קטורה בכביש 90, באורך של כ-120 ק"מ, נחשב לאחד הקטעים המסוכנים בישראל. מרבית הדרך חד-נתיבית לכל כיוון, ללא אפשרות עקיפה בטוחה – וזה יוצר לחץ, נהיגה תוקפנית ומצבים מסכני חיים על בסיס יומי.
בין השנים 2000 ל-2020 נהרגו בכביש הערבה כולו 81 בני אדם, כאשר חלק גדול מהתאונות נגרמות עקב עקיפות מסוכנות בקטעים שאינם מאפשרים עקיפה בטוחה.
הצעה לפיצ'ר מציל חיים:
Waze תוסיף התראה מתקדמת – טיימר בצד המסך או הודעה קולית/חזותית – שתעדכן את הנהג מראש על קטע דו-נתיבי מתקרב:
🕒 "בעוד 2.4 ק"מ – קטע דו-נתיבי לעקיפה בטוחה"

Bring back Friends feature
Friends feature was a great feature and we would like to get it back. As mentioned on multiple conferences it was a "thing" in Waze which was diffenret in Waze app, it was something close to gamification and it was bringing users to the app.
Tkanks for every vote!

Friend feature was removed to make some place for Carpool - that was said by Waze many times. Now, Carpool is dead and Google is trying to implement Friends feature - that's why we would like to have it back!

Felix (Stray Kids) as a voice option
Felix (member of the K-pop group Stray Kids) has a calming yet engaging voice that could fit well for navigation. English language navigation would have his Australian accent, and he (or another member) could potentially record Korean language navigation as well.

Give us back familiar voices.
Many people have expressed their disappointment and frustration that the voices in Waze have been changed with claims that the new voices are more "natural". On the contrary, many of us feel the voices are cold and we want the former versions back. We use the Italian Sofia and the new voice has no warmth or connection for us. Many other users have said the same of the English Thomas and Kate and other voices from varying languages. Please return our familiar navigators! The world is alienating enough without these changes!

Set Waze as default iOS navigation app [iOS 18.4/EU only]
In the EU, Apple has finally made it possible to set a default navigation app in iOS 18.4.
Unfortunately, Waze has not yet implemented this feature.
You can find the new option in iOS 18.4 under Settings -> Apps -> Default apps -> Navigation
This is what it looks like: https://ibb.co/wNHBspGN
It would be really great to finally have the option on iOS to open addresses directly without having to copy and paste them manually into Waze, for example.

Add date of aerial imagery to WME
Request that the WME aerial imagery display the date that it was taken.
Street View in WME shows the date and you often can see that one direction is more recent than the other direction on a divided road. The more recent photos can show the updated Lane Guidance, Speed Limit, etc changes.
Having the same ability for the aerial imagery would be great.
Bonus points to show the date for each of the Additional imagery options.
Note the date of the aerial imagery is available on Google Earth by using the lat/long, which some editors do to help sort…

iOS 18 Dark Icon! PLEASE
Dear WAZE Support,
I hope this message finds you well. I’ve been using your app for some time now and truly appreciate its features. With the release of iOS 18, I was wondering if you could consider adding a dark mode icon option for the app.
It would be a great addition for those of us who prefer a consistent dark theme across our devices.
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your response!
Best regards,

Dip Permanent Hazard
It would be great to have a new category of permanent hazards for dips in the roadway. Currently, there is no appropriate category for such. Many municipalities have man-made dips to serve as a traffic calming device. On the other hand, natural dips in the roadway may be encountered by Wazers throughout their travel. Having this permanent hazard can warn Wazers of such occurrences ahead of time in order to slow down and prevent potential damage to vehicles.
Another suggestion (https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-waze-suggestion-box/suggestions/38921404-reporting-uneven-road>) regarding uneven roads might be relevant as part of this new permanent hazard category.

Additional fields in Tollbooth hazard
It would be great to add some fields to Tollbooth hazard like "name", "price" and "payment methods", so that Waze can warn (on screen and TTS) about the next toll on the Wazer route and, at least, its name and price.
