  1. Android Auto Enhancements

    The Android Auto integration is pretty good, but what would make it perfect is just a couple tweaks:

    1) Make it auto-start when you start Android Auto. I don't mean it would come up instead of the AA home screen, I mean unlike Google Maps, when you have Waze as your default mapping app, your typical destinations don't appear on the AA home screen until you click the map icon. I also cannot hit my car's "Nav" button to get me into Waze until I've manually opened it once. With Google Maps as default, I can hit Nav button on…

  2. הגעת ליעד - שים לב שאין תינוק ברכב

    שלכל אדם כאשר הוא מגיע ליעד או שניה לפני שהוא זורק את האפליקציה - היא תאמר - ״רק שים לב שלא שכחת תינוק ברכב״

  3. Előtérben marad iOS alatt/Stay in foreground in iOS

    Kérem, hogy iOS alatt is lehessen beállítani ugyanúgy, mint az Androidos verzió alatt meglévő “Waze előtérben marad” funkciót! Android alatt futó waze-ben “Általános beállítások/Waze előtérben marad” gombbal lehet ezt beállítani, hogy mindig lásd, hívás közben is. Ez iOS 12.4 alatt futó 4.52.5 verziójú wazeben nem áll rendelkezésre sajnos.

    Please be able to configure it on iOS as well as the “Waze stay on foreground” feature on Android! In waze running Android, you can set this with the "General settings / Waze stay in the foreground" button to always see it during a call. Unfortunately, this is not available on wiki…

  5. Make rawgps an option in settings

    Currently users get and report “improper navigation” because waze has snapped the user to an a segment that the driver is not actually on. Using the rawgps mode users can easily see where they are and what segment the app thinks the user is on.
    By making this segment more widely known and available more users will be aware when waze has snapped them onto an incorrect segment and will be able to identify the cause of incorrect navigation instructions, and maybe solve the problem themself. Knowing is half the battle, and this is an easy way for waze to…

  6. Upcoming driver-based alerts bar below navigation

    I would like to request a features which enables the users to show or hide a bar which contains the upcoming X driver-based alerts like hazards, police traps, etc. It could be switched on or off from the settings and its height should be like the "and then navigation". It would show like: Police 200m, Hazard 1.4km. So the user would know the upcoming alerts. It would help to know the polices and hazards in advance, so you don't have to check or scroll while driving. Thanks.

  9. lost item while driving

    Lost item while traveling. We recently lost a few rare items out of the back of our truck during a trip down I-70 at night. It would be awesome if we could create a lost item alert in the general area where, if a driver seen it on the side of road they could alert us, or contact us to where it was seen!

  10. SYL - Save Your Life

    Automatically generated emergency messaging feature.

    When the software detects a road accident (by measuring the G-forces and impacts) of one of your clients, after X minutes countdown it would send an automatically generated message with the following data:
    Name of the injured
    Age of the injured (date of birth)
    Gender
    Blood type
    Phone number
    GPS location
    etc. (all kind of informations may you need)
    And also able to add more contacts (friends, family members etc.), that means that the most important and relevant peoples of the users would be informed about the accident in just a couple of minutes.

    Route blockages cannot be entered on the car display when the smartphone is connected via cable and Android Auto. More functions for the dashboard would be welcome.

  12. שיתופי פעולה עם קהילות מבוססות מיקום

    יצירת שיתופי פעולה עם קהילות מבוססות מיקום (למשל קהילה של שכונה כלשהי) לטובת ההפצה של האפליקציה/פתרון בקרב קהילות אלו - מינוף הקרבה הגיאוגרפית, הורדת חסם עבור נשים שלא רוצות להסיע זרים ועוד.
    פשוט לייצר בתוך waze פעילות שתעבוד מול מנהלי הקהילות האלה, וויז למשל יכולה בסיוע אותם מנהלי קהילות להעמיד דוכנים באירועים פיזיים או לקיים אירועי הסברה וכו' או לגשת לקהילות דרך הפייסבוק. בתל אביב למשל המון קהילות עובדות מול העירייה, כך שבטח יש לה מיפוי בסיסי כלשהו.
    בהצלחה.

  13. Report cop or accident on other side of the road through carplay

    I love being able to use Waze through carplay, but I miss some of the features when you use it without carpaly. Reporting cops, hazards, or accidents on the other side of the road are important I feel. Can they please be added??

  14. The option to lock the use of your keyboard during the trip for Safer driving; Insurance Discounts and Gas Station Points

    The option to lock your keyboard will allow you to drive without distraction and benefit with multilateral partnerships. If Waze can partner with Insurance companies or Chain gas stations the Wazer who selects the "Drive Mode" would gain points to either of the above for safe driving or gas discounts (two examples). The benefit would be to surrounding drivers and the Wazer themselves as they are earning a reward. We live in a "Points" game world and as Waze already gives you points these would be much more attractive as they will be able to be redeemable.

  15. Waze needs to shut up if I start voice commands

    If I'm in a busy area and want to change or stop guidance I will say "OK Waze" but I can never get my command spoken because waze is constantly interrupting me. This is insanely aggravating and should not be happening when I'm trying to drive and give a command.
    So once I say OK Waze, waze should stop providing updates until the exchange is finished.

  16. אפשרות להפעיל את וויז ב-GPS ללא SIM

    לרוב המכוניות החדשות יש נווטי GPS ללא יכולת ניווט ONLINE כי אין להם אפשרות ל-SIM (תקשורת סלולרית). אבל, כמעט לכולם יש WiFi.
    כולם משתמשים בנייד ובנווט דרך בלוטות לצורך ניהול שיחה. בזמן זה כמעט ואי-אפשר להשתמש בוויז.
    יהיה נחמד אם תהיה אפליקציה קטנה בנייד שמעבירה את כל התקשורת הרלוונטית (GPRS) ל-WiFi של הנייד (Gateway) ואפלקציית הוויז תרוץ על נווט המכונית ותקבל את הנתונים דרך ה-WiFi במקום ה-GPRS. הבחירה תהיה אוטומטית אם אין SIM וידנית אם יש את שתי האפשרויות (GPRS ו-WiFi). במקרה זה תהיה אפשרות להשתמש בשני ניידים - הרגיל וישן, שעליו ירוץ רק הווי ויקבל את הנתונים מהראשון דרך…

  17. Keep Track of Tolls

    Some toll roads, like the Illinois Tollway, allow you to pay the tolls online afterwards for up to 7 days after your travel without paying a fine. Now that Waze is rolling out showing the cost of tolls, it should also let you track the tolls you pass on roads that have online payment options. Following your drive, you should be able to export a list of the tolls, and the time you passed them, as well as instructions for how to pay online. As it is now, other apps exist to do this, but it would be awesome if…

  18. Change sound settings by voice command

    Change sounds settings by voice command instead of by hand as sometimes the change in needed quickly
    Additionally it would be a good idea to be able to make reports by voice instead of using hands

  19. Last time Waze behavior

    Dear Waze developers, here are some notes regarding the app behavior after last updates: 1. Navigation algorithms became very unusual. Looks like the path choosing criteria now is "Longest, hardest, max.traffic way". If you are driving in a hard traffic time, the app choose the worst was almost always, especially after last updates.
    2. After accepting a phone call UI doesn't come back if the call is long enough. Its pretty hard for a driving person to get it back to the screen
    3. The Close button is too small, located in inconvenient place and sometimes doesn't respond to push.…
