Improve Waze for all (professional drivers like taxi drivers, truck drivers and bus drivers as well)
Feedback for Waze Improvements (Australia-specific but globally relevant):
1. Map and Speed Limit Accuracy
• Please update maps and speed limit data more frequently, especially in Australia where road rules and limits are often updated.
• Ensure that the speedometer always shows the correct speed limit without disappearing or failing, as this can mislead drivers and cause unintentional speeding.
• Improve reliability so the speedometer never stops working unexpectedly.
2. Audible Alerts and Driver Focus
• Introduce louder and clearer spoken alerts for every speed limit change, so drivers do not have to look at their phone screen.
• Provide…3 votes -
Remove 'Reported map issue' from UR description
This auto generated "Reported map issue" text in the description field isn't adding much value.
In fact that field is supposed to be extra info from the user..
93 votesHey,
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!

Evacuation zones
I know these currently exist via Champs/Coordinators, this is a suggestion on how these work.
We in NC have had a big issue with DOT not knowing every closed road and considered almost half the state as closed. NC leadership worked with champs and coordinators to get an evacuation zone set up. However, we noticed that routing through this zone was still enabled. Based on this here is 2 suggestions we came up with.
1 - Route Around - This suggestion is to restrict travel from outside the zone to outside the zone through the zone completely. This is the…

Business Address Route to arrive on the right side of the street
For business address, hotels, commercial, etc. especially in busy downtown areas, please have the route always go around the block or whatever is necessary to arrive on the Right side of the street. For example dropping a passenger off in front of the building. Avoids having to do a mid-block u-turn or going around the block.

Scottish voices
Please please please can we have the following options for voices Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee, Aberdeen, Inverness, Highlands accented voices with dialects. If you are from these areas and far from home then it’s a big thing to hear a familiar sounding voice. Currently there is not one Scottish voice at all and we feel left out

Mostrar en pantalla de forma anticipada el nombre de la próxima calle que se atravesará cuando se está navegando sin destino prefijado
Si bien todas las calles tienen nombre, durante la navegación no siempre es visible el nombre de la calle en el tramo exacto que uno está atravesando, lo que obliga a mover manualmente el mapa para identificarla. Esto, cuando uno está manejando, resulta incómodo y hasta riesgoso.
Una funcionalidad que tenía Garmin y que sería muy útil incorporar es la siguiente:
mostrar en pantalla, de forma anticipada (por ejemplo, unos 100 metros antes), el nombre de la próxima calle que se va a cruzar, independientemente de si hay que doblar o no. Esto se mostraba en un pequeño rectángulo en…3 votes -
Electric car planning with chargers and battery info
I would like to use Waze like ABRP. For me Waze is the best GPS software to drive my car with. But nowadays I have an electric car and need to plan my trip with the battery level and consumption and the available electric chargers on my way. So I would like to see WAZE able to plan my route, adding to it the needed chargers to reach the destination, for example knowing the initial battery status, the consumption of the car it will be easy to understand when to charge and can add any of the available chargers to…

Distance / speed based voice guidance directions
It used to be you can select how far from a turn or direction for guidance could be selected. You removed this quite some time ago. There used to be three or so options to choose from.
I believe the distance options were 1400/1200 feet.; 750 feet; & 200 feet or something like this. This would be good because sometimes it takes to long to get the direction or it tells me too late or too far away.
Or maybe make it speed dependent. That way if I slow down it's because I'm close and looking or if I'm going…

Display more (limited) house numbers at destination
Short version: When approaching your destination display not only the pin for the address that you're arriving at, but also one, two or three addresses before and after the address. Example: navigating to 122 Main St would show up with the navigation pin, but also show a small number 114 and 118 before, and 126 and 130 after the pin.
When working for a delivery app like Door Dash, Uber Eats, Uber, Lyft, Instacart, Walmart Spark, Amazon Flex, Grub Hub, etcetera you're just trying to get to the location, drop the package, and move on to your next delivery. Often…

Hello, my name is Junior, I'm a motorcyclist in Itabaiana, Sergipe, Brazil. Here in Brazil, we have many trucks and we have difficulty navigating our roads. We need Waze to have a version for trucks; it would certainly be a huge success worldwide.

Alert for fixed parking enforcement cameras when stopping
Please add an alert when a vehicle slows down and stops within a defined enforcement zone monitored by fixed parking cameras.
This would help drivers avoid unintentional parking violations, especially in areas with unclear signage or new residents/visitors.
Suggested options:
• Toggle on/off in alerts settings
• Alert only below X km/h and when vehicle remains stationary for Y seconds
• Show a “parking enforcement camera zone” banner1 vote -

enlarge the size of the speed display on android devices, and change the colours to improve contrast
I find the speed hard to read on my android when mounted to the handlebars on my bike. If the speed was larger, and with better contrast, especially the red on black, that would help a lot

Bulgarian TTS voice
Waze offers TTS voices in many languages that can pronounce both street names and important alerts. This is extremely useful because alerts like average speed checks, speed bumps, and other warnings are spoken aloud rather than played as brief beeps that can be easy to overlook.
Unfortunately, there is no TTS voice available for Bulgarian. I use the UK voice 'Kate' as a workaround, but it cannot correctly pronounce Bulgarian street names written in Cyrillic. This limits both usability and safety for Bulgarian-speaking drivers.
Please add a Bulgarian TTS voice to ensure proper pronunciation of street names and audible alerts…
