Restriction zones based on license plate
In Costa Rica Waze is probably the top GPS app, largely because we lack proper street names and numbers!
The capital city has a license plate access restriction system, where depending on your license plate, you cannot access the city center 1 day of the week. It would be amazing to have the ability to tell waze which day you cannot enter and for the app to design alternate routes for you.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already takes license plate restrictions into account, in many parts of the world. To enable this feature, add your license plate details under Settings > Car details > License plate.

Add an option to have the 'Music Player' button always on the screen.
It's quite annoying to start up waze and then try to start your music player up. Please allow us to optionally just always keep the 'Music Player' button on the main screen whether music was playing before waze launched or not.

You can now search by coordinates! You can use UTM to enter any pair of coordinates. Make sure to use a comma in between. For example, you can search for:
52.02644,5.58166(This location in the Netherlands… but any other coordinates will work)
Available on version 2.1 and onwards.

Enhance address with GPS Coordinates
Sometimes the destination is a small part of a larger address. It would be great to be able to pinpoint the exact location. For example, the campus where I work has a single mailing address; however there are more than one way to get to campus. If I use the mailing address, the destination ends up being on the wrong side of the campus. Most of the time I'm routed to get to a location I'm not intending to go to.
Operational behavior:
Enter mailing/street address. Be able to open a map view of the target location. Ability to edit…3 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, Waze supports GPS coordinates as destination.

I would like to be able to send a destination from my laptop or computer to my Waze account via email or an integrated link.
I need to go anywhere - so I look the address up on my computer. If I could simply send that address to Waze via email or via some integration, that would be an excellent additional capability.
1 voteYou can easily build a route in Waze Live Map and send it to your phone.

The ETA on the shared route (My Drive) website is no longer visible on older browsers
The ETA is visible only for a very short time before the map is overlaid. Older browser is the default browser of an older Android phone (Samsung with Android 2.3) and IE9.
Also tried the current Firefox and Chrome versions, and both are OK.
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.

Waze could display the speed limit of the road we are driving, and warn the speed limit of the speed controllers we are passing.
Others devices have this improvement.1 vote -
Zoom level resets after waze shows alerts while stopped
If I'm driving and set my zoom at a certain level and stop, waze shows nearby alerts... great! But when I drive again my zoom level is not what I've set it at. Also, please make the app show the alert on the side of the screen and put the pinpointed alert on the other side while in landscape mode. Sometimes an alert is useless without seeing it and currently the warning covers the map!

Can I mark a present position as a destination address?
I would like to mark a present position and enter it as a destination address.
1 voteIt’s a bit tricky, but possible. Here’s the flow:
1. Select an address, which would be your starting point
2. On the preview location page tap on ‘More’ button (three dots), tap ‘Select as starting point’
3. Select an address which would be your destination (current address)
4. Tap ‘Go’ – Waze would calculate a route from selected start point to the selected destination point. -

For the love of God let us Edit (or at least View) the Home/Work address.
I just moved and set my home address. Now every time I need to remind myself of the actual address, it's not viewable in the app. It's completely gone. I've tried to text the address, and modify the address, email the address. The app completely hides the value in the Home and Work favorite. It's very frustrating not being able to see what's in those fields.
