Hi Police Officer here, I like seeing people posting officer locations
Hi, police officer here. I like seeing people posting officer locations. It encourages people to slow down. It's beneficial in high-traffic/complaint areas. This results in fewer crashes and fewer complaints. With that in mind, could an alert or notification be implemented that notifies users/drivers of an approaching speed limit change and when it changes? I know the speed limit indicator changes, perhaps something a little more flashy.

wrong navigation for address
Wrong location on Waze
Please note that waze misdirects its users as to the following address:
Ketzot Hachoshen 22, Modiin Ilit, Israel.
Currently typing this address sends the driver to the wrong side of the street.
There is no option to add a map, so please check Google Maps and fix accordingly. Needless to say, this mistakes causes difficulties and delays, particularly for shipping services.
Thank you for taking care of this ASAP.1 vote -
Cockney voice
Not sure why you decided to remove the cockney voice? It was one of the reasons why I was using Waze…please bring it back, it was superb!

Shadow the Hedgehog
I see you recently introduced Sonic as a Navigator and he's already super fun and gives me the happiest time while driving. I was wondering in the spirit of rivals, could we get a shadow version too to go along with it. Keanu Reeves, David Humphrey, Jason Griffith, or Kirk Thorton!

Move speedometer position
Hello Waze team,
The speedometer is currently hard to see in its position while driving. Please add an option to move it, especially to the top-right corner, or allow users to customize its position on the screen. This will improve visibility and safety.
Thank you.1 vote -

Exploration mode
On my motorcycle I find myself changing settings to avoid highways and tolls. It would be nice to have a button for this with a reminder to return to normal mode after. I sometimes forget to change back and then have long commute to the next place.

Dashcam
Dashcam which offers possible navigation support has all things like speed etc rear and forward. Here is the idea ai. Image recognisearion which links with a phone I did this simply with raspberry pi python and a YOLO I made it ping when police were in view maybe it's possible to make it mark them up on the app real time option to enable disable this feature for privacy make sure it only sends a gps ping location and don't do it in a radius near somebody's house fully anonymous reporting with this dashcam links up with the app so…

Bottom toolbar shows and hides itself insanely
I use Waze on my iPhone 17 Pro Max screen directly, I often see the bottom toolbar shows and hides itself every 1 second while driving, and when it happens, it will never stop, I have to re-launch the app while driving, which is very dangerous and inconvenient. And this issue has been there for years (it also happened on my iPhone 14 Pro Max, 16 Pro Max, etc). I recorded a video recently for your reference: https://d.pr/v/Dx9sP0

Toll vs no toll cost estimating
Currently, Waze shows estimated costs for tolls which is very helpful. However, I think it would be very beneficial if there was a feature comparing the estimated cost of taking a toll road vs taking the longer ‘no toll’ option. For example, if a toll road might cost $5 but saves 15 minutes of driving, based on current average fuel prices (typical fuel type and average L/100km entered by user) could a cost estimate for fuel used on the longer route be used to compare and inform the decision for which route to take? For example, the $5 toll saving…

Prioritize travel time vs. always suggesting the express lanes on the highway
Waze always suggests the Express lanes, regardless of which set of lanes (Express or Collector) are moving faster between the next cross-over point. Every time I get on the highway, Waze directs me to the Express lanes. Many times, the collectors are moving faster than the express lanes, so I do not understand why Waze keeps directing to the express lanes. Waze should prioritize travel time and should only suggest the express when the travel time is shorter (i.e. when the express is moving faster than the collectors), and when the express makes sense based on the exit you need…

Voices preview and favorites
I've noticed a few things that could be improved: 1. why not preview the voice directions before we choose one.
2. instead of scrolling through the voices all the time why not have a favorite option to add which ones you like and change between them easier.3 votes -
Highway symbols and lane assist on steering wheel screen (Android Automotive)
Highway symbols for state/province highways and interstates, as well as lane assist, should be visible on the steering wheel screen in Android Automotive (Polestar, Volvo, etc.) during navigation, just as they are on Google Maps, for better visual cues for drivers.

parking rangers
IMPLEMENT PARKING RANGER ALERTS
Implement a “Parking Ranger Alert” feature within reporting tools, similar to existing options for road blockages or traffic incidents. This would allow users to quickly notify others when a parking ranger is in the area, helping drivers make more informed parking decisions in real time.

Add voice notification when there is a mobile police camera in the opposite lane
I use Waze almost every day. I recently received a ticket and noticed that when there is a mobile police camera marked in the opposite lane (even on a two-way road), Waze does not send me a voice notification or warn me about it. Mobile police cameras measure speed in both directions. Can you make the app send a notification even if there is a mobile police camera marked in the opposite lane?

Background Safety & Enforcement Alerts
Add an opt-in "Background Mode" that alerts drivers to speed cameras, red-light cameras, and police presence even when the app isn't being used for navigation.
This would provide "passive protection" for daily commutes where a driver knows the route but still wants to be notified of real-time road hazards. To save battery, the feature could automatically activate only when the phone detects it is connected to a vehicle's Bluetooth.1 vote -
Fuel Cost Estimation in Route Comparison
Hello,
I would like to suggest adding an estimated fuel cost indicator to route options, similar to how CO₂ emissions are currently displayed.
Why this would be valuable:
• Drivers naturally compare time vs cost when choosing a route.
• While CO₂ information is useful, fuel cost is often a more actionable decision factor for everyday users.
• Having this directly inside Waze would avoid the need to use third-party apps for cost estimation.Proposed implementation (simple & non-intrusive):
• Add an optional field in vehicle settings:
• Average fuel consumption (L/100km or MPG)
• Fuel type
• Use official…2 votes
