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,

Show currency after price in fuel
In some countries such as my own, Australia, we use cents ¢ to determine the price of fuel per litre. I recently raise this as a problem in Waze Discuss as it was showing the dollar $ symbol instead of the cents ¢ symbol.
Now that that's fixed there's a limitation in the UI where this symbol can be placed. I was hoping the UI could be updated to show this symbol after the value rather than before as that's the correct way to show this type of currency.

Simplify Wazer and Editor workflow for residential places
The current method for a wazer to add their home to the map is confusing and creates more work for waze map editors. The workflow for a wazer is similar to this:
Wazer selects the yellow triangle (if it's displayed on their map)
Next selects "Place"
(now it is about to get really confusing)
Wazer must take a picture
The next screen says "Select Place" with a text field that says "Enter Place name".
For a residence, the wazer should not enter a place name. Just below the text field there is apparently a "button" that if tapped will add…31 votes -
Add information/instructions on when to add a pass
My suggestion is for the following feature:
Either:
Add an information panel when users enter the Toll and HOV passes page for the first time, informing them that adding passes may route them into areas or through restricted roads.
Or:
Allow us to add information against each pass/permit, giving the user guidance as to what each pass is for.My suggestion solves this problem:
There is less chance that the user will select a pass/permit that they shouldn’t have due to the misunderstanding of how the pass system works.In more words:
Now that Passes/Permits that users have added to…16 votes -
Increase font in navigation screens
Small fonts on Android. It was better few version back. Increase font in Android doesn't help. Ask your devs to respect accessibility for major actions like voice alerts, Home/work recommendations , recent drives, etc.

Show the type of place category on the place information screen
Currently Wae does not show the name/type of category a place belongs to when viewing the information screen. This should be included e.g Movie theater, Restaurant etc

More bad weather descriptions
Instead of “bad weather reported ahead,” there should be options for co-pilots to select “high winds,” or blowing snow,” or “heavy rain,” or “hail,” or “sleet,” or “tornado,” etc

MERCI
Bonjour est-il possible de désactiver le remerciement lorsque l'on signale en danger.
En effet lorsque je signale un danger un remerciement s'affiche en bas en vert, mais cet encart masque pendant beaucoup trop longtemps le nombre de kilomètres à faire et l'heure d'arrivée.
De ce fait, je ne peux plus accéder de nouveau déclarer un danger pendant plus de 15 minutes.Alain BONNEAU

im using Sygav auto android touchscreen stereo that has Android versiuon 8 that can't be updated to version 9 nor version 13.

Like to see Home, Work 1 , Work 2 , Store 1, Store 2 button on startup, also picks first fastest route, The option to pick…

Simplify feedback buttons
Currently there are two option buttons on the display, regarding a reported event. These are "Still there" and "Not there". But as your default setting is "Still there" in case of no action from the user, I think it would be better to have a single button, and that should be "Not there". In this way would be more easy for the user to push that button while driving. In the current situation sometimes I miss the right answer because the two buttons are close and I have to be attentive to the road while giving feedback.

Please fix the bug that has the same pop up appear every time I open the app - “Do you an EV?” There is no way to say no or turn off this pop up. It happens every time I open my app. People are leaving Waze because of this disruption.

Make visual improvements
Make visual improvements, especially in detours, exits, etc. to make it more visually attractive. In many applications there is a 3D view of exits, detours, etc., which is very clear and visually appealing.

Share route from car screen
Add a button on the car screen to share route with a pre-selected favorite contact.
I only share route with my wife, but I do this everyday. Currently I must start and share the route on my phone before Android Auto connects to the car wirelessly. A simple button to share to one contact using one app (eg: Whatsapp) would be very useful.

Speedometer position
Please make it so the speedometer can be dragged to a new position on the screen!
The speedometer being fixed in the bottom left of the phone screen can be an issue depending on where the phone is mounted, the orientation it is mounted, and if the screen is obstructed by the steering wheel for example.10 votes -

Six essential functions when using apps on mobile phones
Recommendations for the Waze app:
1. Add setting item: Speed adjustment is a slider from 0 to 15km/h to compensate for slower speed compared to reality due to gps latency
2. Change the current speeding warning threshold setting menu to a slider with values from -20km/h to 20km/h so that users can choose the appropriate warning threshold for each need.
3. Add voice speed warning sound option
4. Add option to Repeat overspeed warning: (Off, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 60 seconds…)
5. Increase the size of the speed indicator and speed limit to match mobifone navigation…5 votes -
CHANGE SPEED CAMERA AND RED LIGHT CAMERA ICONS BACK TO THE OLD ICON OR GIVE US THE OPTION TO CHOOSE.
Waze changed the speed camera and red light camera icon on the map and it’s so much harder to see now.
Just got a ticket for going 2 mph over the speed limit because I didn’t see the camera on my map

Accessibility
Suggestion:
Improve accessibility by offering larger and more legible text options for users with difficulty reading small, intricate, or black-colored fonts, as they appear in the current interface. Even with larger fonts and adjusted text styles enabled on my father's phone, the app doesn't adapt well to these settings, making it hard to read addresses and other details. I suggest implementing better accessibility features to address these needs.
