  1. Option to not automatically launch Waze when I activate Carplay

    I do not need Waze every time I drive. If I launch Apple Airplay to listen to my music or an audiobook, Waze automatically launches on my phone and drains my battery. I would like to have the option in settings to choose whether to automatically launch Waze or not. Some users may prefer to auto-launch, so having the option would be beneficial.

  2. Alternate routes color text

    On the alternative routes page, on an Android phone, reading the best route information is difficult because the text and green background are bright. I would like you to improve the contrast, maybe changing the text to black.

  4. Speed traps notifications

    Early notifications about speed traps inform you whenever you are in the area of the speed trap.
    But now, if you are entering the speed trap area at the allowed speed, they don’t inform you about it, even if you are entered at the allowed speed, but increase your speed in this area.

  5. Redesign alerts from ground up

    In addition to being able to modify exactly which alerts users want to hear (only police for example — who cares about vehicles on shoulder?), you need to remove the alarmist and jarring “watch out” before alerts. Users should have options of different tones they can select for various alerts so that no voice alerts are necessary, just tones if preferred. So either [ding] “police” or simply [ding]. Also it’s time to change that terrible 90s computer voice to something better.

    Hard to believe this app is owned and managed by one of the most powerful and wealthy companies in…

  6. Add a Toilet Place Category

    There is currently no toilet place category, there is however apparently a search category for toilet. It would be ideal to create a place category for toilet tied to the search category so that public toilets can be mapped more effectively than simply using "Other". This could then potentially be tied to a quick search category in app.

  7. Necesita un buen aviso radar

    No entiendo, no tiene Waze los avisos de radar bien diseñados, solo avisa si vas a velocidad superior a la de la vía. Si vas acelerando o vas a adelantar a otro vehículo justo antes d un radar, no te avisa y a la altura del radar ya vas más rápido de lo permitido. Debería avisar siempre, o por lo menos se configurable y además indicar la velocidad límite del radar.
    Tal como está diseñado Waze, para evitar radares es pésimo, te distraes pues miras demasiado la pantalla para evitarlos y eso es malo para la conducción, es de lógica.…

  8. Messages are read aloud whilst driving

    In Google maps whilst it is in Auto mode, it will read aloud any incoming messages (if turned on), so that I am informed of things without having to check them whilst driving, which is not allowed.

  9. Problemas e Bugs

    Navegação offline nâo funciona e aparece mensagem de erro.
    Quando offline é quase impossível registrar alertas. Ou acusa estar sem sinal ou apresenta mensagem de erro.
    Quando o smartphone reconecta na rede o Waze permanece offline por vários minutos.
    Após a instalação do tema do Meu Malvado Favorito não consigo mais alterar o humor.
    Muitos mapas com informações ultrapassadas e incompletas sobre fiscalização eletrônica e outros itens importantes.
    Nâo "conversa" com o Alpine Quest quando peço para gerar uma rota para algum ponto como faço com o Google Maps.

    It would be a great safety enhancement at almost all US airports with FAA control towers to have a Waze-like instruction clearance pictorial and verbal.
    You guys ought to check into it.

  12. The traffic direction cant be seen

    When someone post bad traffic on any street and the app navigate you via that street, you can barely see the direction of the traffic. So me as a driver have to lean and stare at a phone up close and thats very dangerous, you agree.. so my solution is, make the red/orange traffic line visible only on one side of the direction line. Depending on the direction of the traffic, if traffic is in opposite direction of ours the visible line will be on the left side/margin and vice versa. I hope I explained it accurate, its easier to…

  13. when looking for a gas station

    When searching for fuel, food, or lodging, it would be nice to have a quick way to specify convenience of the route. I don't want to have to try to zoom out or in to find the most convenient stop for what I am looking for. I know many people want to find the cheapest option, but I want something that won't take me several miles out of the way and something that is on my route not behind me. It also seems like most of the suggestions are due to paid businesses, but there could be a more convenient…

  15. slope

    Give us an option to put the estimated % slope of the highway on the map, like the current speed . you can calculate this based on the GPS data if the vertical accuracy is good enough.

  20. Verbally Say Speed Limit on Road

    Waze needs to say what the speed limit is on the road verbally. It is dangerous to look down at the phone screen for the speed limit when it is not posted on the road, and you have no idea what it is, especially for those who have difficulty reading small print.
