expanded search capabilities
I'd recommend using one to find business categories and specific brands along a route. This could also make Waze more attractive to getting business sponsors to pay a really low entry price per month to show up in those results. I wouldn't use the pay-per-click model. Just something like a $5/month charge. Sell it to them like buying a cup of coffee every month. There are ~1 million US businesses in core travel categories who would qualify for this kind of service.

Ability to report ALPR and flock cameras
The only current ability to report a camera is the police cameras. Please add a separate icon or ability to report these cameras.
Side note for those of you who are adamant that these don’t result in speeding tickets… they don’t until they do… do you really trust the entity behind them?2 votes -

Police Hotspots
Waze should introduce a feature that identifies historical police hotspots—areas where law enforcement frequently sets up speed traps. Because these locations are highly predictable, mapping these recurring zones would give drivers advanced situational awareness. To accommodate all users, this feature should include a dedicated toggle in the settings menu, allowing drivers to easily turn the hotspot indicators on or off based on their preference

Don't Popup the "Would you like to enable voice control?" during navigation
During navigation a prompt will pop up asking to enable voice control. This covers the entire screen and doesn't go away until interacted with. In many countries it's illegal to touch your phone while driving. This has essentially rendered waze useless for me and I've had to go back to google maps.

Truck Navigation and Road Restrictions for Heavy Vehicle Drivers
I am a truck driver in the UAE. I would like to suggest some improvements to Waze for heavy vehicle drivers.
Many new truck drivers do not know all the roads, truck-restricted routes, or no-entry timings. Sometimes, they enter roads where heavy trucks are not allowed because they do not know the restrictions or road signs.
Please add a truck navigation option that shows:
- Roads where heavy trucks are allowed or prohibited.
- Truck no-entry timings and restricted hours.
- Road signs and truck restrictions.
- Truck-friendly routes based on vehicle type and size.
- Warnings before entering a restricted road.
- Low bridges, height…

Add all vehicle types
I like to use Waze just needs to have all vehicle types as I drive a truck, flatbed and car and I find it a head doer when it assumes I’m in a car or taxi and sends me down a restricted road or tunnel with hight restrictions lol

Add Live Activities & Dynamic Island support for turn-by-turn navigation - like Google Maps
Please add support for iOS Live Activities and Dynamic Island for navigation. Google Maps, Apple Maps, Uber and Careem already have it, but Waze only shows a blue arrow background indicator.
This is very important for drivers in UAE. We need to see the next turn, ETA and distance directly on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island without keeping Waze open in foreground.
With iOS 27 now supporting up to 3 Live Activities at once, this feature became standard for all navigation apps. It should be very simple to implement.
Many users in the community are requesting this…2 votes -
stop changing routes
Please add an option to disable Waze from changing your route as soon as you start driving, I specifically choose routes that are a couple minutes longer as I hate certain roads yet it’s useless as as soon as I set off Waze has already changed my route and put me back onto the way I didn’t want to go, this is really frustrating and definitely the worst part of the app

Urgent Localization Issue: Inappropriate Default Russian Voice for Georgian Users
Dear Waze Support Team,
I am writing to you as a dedicated Waze user from Georgia. While I appreciate the app's functionality, I want to bring a critical and highly sensitive localization issue to your immediate attention that needs urgent correction.
Currently, when Georgian users download Waze from the Play Store or App Store (with the region set to Georgia), the app’s interface correctly defaults to the Georgian language. However, the default voice navigation automatically assigns a Russian voice if a dedicated Georgian voice option is missing.
This creates a deeply uncomfortable and unacceptable user experience for several reasons:

Requests for Map and Route Visibility Improvements (Japan)
Wazeをもっと便利に利用するため、以下の視認性と機能の向上を提案します。
(I would like to suggest the following improvements to make Waze more useful and readable:)
1. 一方通行の表示改善 (Improve One-Way Street Visibility)
日本の道路では一方通行が多いため、地図上での一方通行の色や矢印をもっと目立たせて、一目で判別できるようにしてほしいです。
(Please make the colors and directional arrows for one-way streets more visually distinct on the map, as they are crucial for driving in Japan.)
2. 交差点の車線案内 (Advance Lane Guidance at Intersections)
車線数が多い道路において、次の交差点でどの車線にいればいいのか、もっと手前の段階から分かりやすく車線情報を表示してほしいです。
(On multi-lane roads, please provide clearer lane information further in advance before reaching complex intersections.)
3. 高速道路の出入口とルートの色分け (Highway Exit Info and Route Color-Coding)
目的地を検索している状態（ルート探索中）でも、高速道路の出入口（インターチェンジやジャンクション）の場所が明確に分かるようにしてほしいです。また、一般道と高速道路のルートがはっきりと色分けされると見やすくなります。
(Please make highway entrances/exits clearly visible even during the route search state. It would also help to distinctively color-code highway and…1 vote -
Support for dimensions and combinations such as caravans
I propose that Waze allows users to save multiple vehicles, each with their own dimensions, including height, width, and length. It should also be possible to add vehicle combinations, such as a car with a caravan or trailer, where the additional dimensions are automatically taken into account during route planning.
Users could then manually select the appropriate vehicle or combination before starting a trip, or Waze could automatically detect the vehicle via CarPlay or Android Auto.
It is essential that Waze takes infrastructure limitations into account—such as bridge heights, narrow roads, sharp turns, and low tunnels—so that any routes that…

Add a detailed preview for roundabouts
I saw this feature in some map app online, so when heading to a roundabout, just like what waze does, a popup will show on the top of the screen and showing a simple symbol to tell which exit we should take. What about having a detailed preview showing a birdseye view on the roundabout and showing the exact route i.e. what lane and exit show take instead of simple symbol and exit name?

Map view on dash screen
When driving my 2026 Chevy Equinox there’s a capability to look at the map directly infront of the screen behind the wheel. When you do this the little box notification of when to turn is directly in the middle of the map so if you are trying to look at what the intersection looks like it’s completely blocking the incoming intersection which makes it difficult because sometimes the visualization of the intersection or ramps to the highway is helpful and necessary. Can the little notification box be moved where it is out of the way of the incoming streets?

change shape or proximity of the alert pop up choices to make it easier to hit with a finger
Concerning the pop-up's for alerts: for example when one comes up for a car on the shoulder. The two choices are imprinted on two horizontal bars that are very close together. I find that sometimes although my finger is going to "still there" because the choices are horizontal bars and close together, a small deviation in the car caused me to miss and hit " not there". A suggestion therefore - why not have the choices a different shape, i.e. circular, and separated in a way that mitigates this issue ? I like this app by the way.
