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,

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…30 votes -
iOS 18 dark mode icon
Dark mode icon update for iOS 18. I designed a shortcut icon but sizing and dimensions need to be fixed.

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

Animals
Please bring back the animals by the side of the road alert. I drive daily where there are numerous deer and kangaroos grazing on the road edge. They do a lot of damage when hit at 90km/h.

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…9 votes -
Add back animals on the side of road
The alert for “animals on the side of the road” was extremely helpful for warning other drivers of the danger and also knowing animals could be on a road you are traveling on. It was an alert and recently removed.

Please make the current road speed limit sign larger. It’s far too small.

Visual Time Based Restrictions in client
Make TBR visually available for drivers. This will give context on why roads are not being used for routes. Nowadays they appear as regular roads

Can the reporting button automatically move close to the driver's seat?
Can the position of the "Report" button in the in-car system be automatically adjusted based on the driver's seat position in the country where the user is located?
Avoid car accidents by reducing the time the driver take hands off the steering wheel.3 votes -
Speed display color
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE change the live speed display to be bigger - but more importantly change the background colour to white. I can’t read the display with red on black when your 1km/h over the speed limit. You have so many suggestions from people do implement this yet seem to keep ignoring us and I don’t understand why.

Refined UI
This may not pertain to most people, but for those of you who use the Waze app in the landscape view may have similar issues. First of all, the alert box for train crossings and red light cameras takes up approximately 40% of the bottom of the screen, as well as the direction arrows information covers the speed display. Some of the other icons are piled on top of each other. If the UI were to be more like the Android auto version of Waze or Gmaps it would be much better and easier to use.
Take a look at…

I wish the speed limit sign was bigger
I wish the speed limit sign was bigger. Because right now I feel like it's too small when I look at it on my phone (iPhone 12 Promax). Because I can't focus on it while driving, I think we need to make the speed limit sign bigger or equal to the speed display when moving. That way it's easier to read at a glance, rather than having to look at it closely.

Re-introduce a feature. Back button (on android) re-centers map.
This is actually not new, but a feature I (and many people I've talked to) want back.
In the past, when you would roam around the map to check whats to come on your route, you could just press the default back button on android and it would re-center the map.
After recent updates, it doesn't do that anymore, and instead shows the dialog for shutting down. So not only we have to cancel that, but then find the button on screen to click to re-center.
Please, add it back.3 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…3 votes -
More fuel types to Waze
Currently Waze only allows four different fuel types for fuel stations. I believe that number is not enough. For example in Finland we currently have 95E10, 98E5, Diesel and E85 as options in Waze. In reality many fuel stations offer renewable/green diesel, natural or bio-gas and some even have AdBlue (DEF) from a pump. Currently around half of my countries fuel types can not have prices set for in Waze.
So, my suggestion is that community members should be able to add a price to any fuel type available at a given station, wich would require an increase to the…

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
