Hire car return - Find a petrol station
This is a bit weak as a stand alone app, so I was thinking you could integrate this into Waze.
When returning hire cars you are required to return with a full tank of gas, otherwise be charged an extortionate rate.
So if you are navigating to an airport or car hire facility, allow a function in Waze, within a set radius inform you of the distance to a gas station (and reroute you if necessary).2 votesYou can find gas stations on around your route and add them as a stop point.

alerts without scrolling
The alert system is great, but when you're driving it would be easier to see all buttons on the same screen, with no need for scrolling. When you need to scroll the list to see all icons it makes you lose attention to the road.
Would it be too difficult to add all kind of alerts on the same window?6 votes -
Tolls
Implementation of the toll rates!
Automatically calculates the price at an entry naviguation when using highway and toll! Updated by other wazers (like gas stations).
Gives the amount of travel when using a motorway!
Way, each Wazer can prepare his way in better conditions and to know your expenses during his journey.
Good luck to you
27 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze calculates and displays toll prices in many parts of the world. To know when this becomes available in your country, stay tuned on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

Please consider adding SPEED LIMITs. It would set you apart... again!!! It would make great press coverage too!
Speed limits would make this a number #1 application and set Waze apart. The other apps have caught up to standard Waze.
3 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Waze client menu not entirely displayed on the screen!
I cannot understand why my Menu popup is not completely displayed on my screen though space is wide enough to accept this (Samsung Galaxy S3 ) I only get the 2 upper rows of icons, but the lower one (Reports, My Friends and Settings) is truncated.As a result, I have to slide the menu up before being able to select "Settings" for example.
Do other users have the same behavior for their client?2 votesHey,
We're happy to share that this idea is already live!
Thanks!

Indicate the speed limit on each portion in addition to the speedometer. Indicate the time or the last wazer to borrow the same road.
Save favorite places on the internet account, it avoids recreating when changing phone.
4 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

I'd like to navigate to parkingplaces more easy. Now not every P possibility is shown on my map.
Not every parkingplace (P) is shown on the map. It would be very easy to select (or even see) the P on the map and navigate to it. Nice and easy way to navigate into a city.

One website for everybody
Why segregate users from the US (waze.com) and the rest of the world? (world.waze.com). Bet a ton of people try to use Waze on the web, check waze.com instead of world.waze.com, see nothing, and say "it doesn't work, screw it".
I imagine the separation is needed because of traffic volume concerns or something. But in that case, waze.com should redirect you to the right map depending on your IP, or if you're logged in, on your stated location. And you should have "US Map" "Rest of the world" links on the web livemap you can click to switch from one…
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, a live map is available as a web version, which you can use to see real time traffic reports. Search for Waze live map.

Create a "via" function
Say I'm at home and I'm going out but I need to stop at the bank on the way. My closest branch is the opposite direction of the way I need to go ultimately. If I could type in my destination, but then tell Waze I want to go "via" Citibank, then Waze could calculate whether it's better from a traffic perspective for me to drive the wrong direction now, or if there's a Citibank on my route that would be faster overall.

Updating Work Address still navigates me to old address when auto suggesting route on the m
Your workplace changed it address, after years if using Waze to get there. You update the Work address. The next day, you enter your car in the morning tired, accepts its suggestion as always that I'm driving to Work and what do you know - after 30 minutes you are at your OLD work address!
Only pressing Navigate and clicking Work actually navigates you to the updated address.1 voteClearing cash and/or re-installing the app should help.

Allow to add speed cameras directly in the map editor and/or change their type (speed/light)
Currently you cannot add a speed camera without reporting it on the spot with your app and then go approve it in the map editor.. This slows down the process if you are in the editor and see a camera is missing and don't want to drive there to add it.
Changing the type of existing ones could help correct mistakes when people report a wrong type of camera.7 votes -

I want voice control in other languages (Swedish for me).
I want voice control in other languages (Swedish for me). There are laws in other countries that you can not tap their mobile phones while driving. And come to Sweden too.
