  1. Voice directions repeats and updates

    If I receive a voice message of probable long duration e.g. "Follow route for 10 miles" followed by a period of silence I get nervous after a time that I have made a road selection mistake. An on-screen option or a Settings switchable option to repeat last voice message or current voice message would be reassuring eg every 5 miles or every 5 minutes..

  2. make alerts omnidirectional

    Alert users to incidents on both sides of the road when there is no divider on the road. On two lane highways voice alerts for police and accidents are directional. Meaning it only alerts you to reports that were made in the direction you are traveling. It should alert you to all reports on the road regardless of which direction you’re heading. Helpful for police and accidents when they could affect both lanes.

  4. I recommend Waze can create additional route options that drivers can choose from especially those that have less turns.

    Waze often struggles to cope with the high-density population and the consequent difficulty of navigating through Manhattan, New York's tight turns. When Waze attempts to avoid particularly congested routes, it often leads to more frequent turns, resulting in longer travel times for drivers and potentially increased chances of encountering pedestrians and traffic violations due to more frequent turns. Therefore, I suggest that Waze introduce an option that allows routes with fewer turns, even if it means navigating through worse traffic conditions, to minimize unnecessary turns. Implementing such a strategy would align with the expectations of many drivers.

  7. Creating option in settings to 'Allow U-turns when available'

    Currently in the UK, the Waze app will not suggest a u-turn when it is legal and available, and instead it will reroute you in big, difficult, time-wasting loops. It usually happens when you make a wrong turn or are in a rural area. A simple U-turn can save lots of time and frustration but Waze suggests 10+ minute detours instead. Very frustrating and something the user should have power over, given that the country (The UK in this case) allows u-turns on its roads except when specifically prohibited.

    Hey, 


    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.

    We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

    Thanks!

  8. Minions Theme Breaks Landscape Mode on Android.

    When I switched to the minion theme, the map would no longer switch to landscape mode on my Android phone. I deleted all data and restarted waze, and landscape worked again. I loaded the minion theme again and Landscape broke again.

  9. Show all addresses for contacts or use default

    I have multiple addresses for many of my Google contacts, but it seems that only the last address for each contact is synced with Waze. It would be nice if all addresses would be synced, or, if only one can be synced, it would be the one marked as default in Google Contacts, not the last.

  12. When in an EV, also show the regular Gas stations category in the Search menu

    I'm driving an EV, so Waze replaced the Gas stations category in the search menu with "EV charging" on Android Auto. However, many EV charging stations in my country are in the middle of nowhere, or at least don't have a place to grab a quick bite or refreshing drinks like the regular gas stations have. I tried using the "Food" and "Coffee" categories, but they just search for restaurants or coffee places and are not suitable for a quick stop along the way. Also, I can't enter text in the search box while driving and I can't search for…

  13. Remove background colour from street names

    Hi
    Could you please remove the colour at street names and make it very clear so we can see the turns and roundabout. Most of the time it's appear at turns so we get confused which exit on roundabout we have to take. It totally vanished the roundabout Most of the time. If you need a screenshot then i can show you how it distract a driver while driving.

  14. Road permit expiry date

    Please add a function to be able to set expiry date for each road permit added to Waze. There are several road permit exist for certain time period, what can lead to pay fine if the user forgets to remove it in time.

  15. Correction

    In Brazil, using English directions, many highways are designated as "SP-###", which stands for "SãoPaulo". The audio direction is calling out ALL SP highways as "Sulfur mono Phosphide" which is a chemical formula abbreviation S P. Every time an SP hwy is called out, she literally says "sulfur mono phosphide" each time, rather than São Paulo, or simply SP. Needs correction. Very annoying 😑

  16. Famous italian people voice added

    We should get famous people like "Gigi D'Agostino" or "Nino D'Angelo" and more famous people, We only got AI voices, and if we want to use the voices ad example of someone viral on tktok Italy we need to pay, or a friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend (50x) needs to share to others friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend (50x) and it's a loop (or if you don't have a Waze friend, then you need to pay) so it will be cool using like conlavocedi.com and ciaoiosonochico.it voices for an example and add into the voice navigation

  17. Red light camera alerts

    I have 4 red light cameras on my daily commute. Can there be a way for us to delete these locations so i don't have to hear them everyday? I don't want to silence alerts completely, and that seems to be the only way.

    Hello,

    My feedback had to do with a general issue; not with a problem or anything too debug.

    Please have an option for less spoken directions when they are very long and duplicate in nature.

    The Google Map app has such an option.

    Once told to take an exit, I don't need to hear again to continue on the road since I just exited. And then I don't need to hear again that I need to go 5.8 miles, and then to proceed on the current route.

    A simple warning 1 mile before the exit and then as I approach…
