Support different left and right street names on segments
Quite often, roads follow the boundary of cities, regions or even countries. This usually means that one side of the street has a different name and house numbers than the other side.
Waze currently allows one primary street name and alternative names, but that doesn't solve this issue as house numbers are assigned to the primary street and when you search for the street set as an alternative name, you incorrectly get redirected to the primary name.
At the moment, we work around this by assigning the street with the most house numbers as primary street name and add residential…

Find a way to avoid spurious hazard reporting of cars stopped on the shoulder when parked safely and posing no risk to drivers
It seems I'm many times a week on freeway journeys seeing situations where a hazard alert will come up for a car stopped when the car in question is safely parked (usually with no occupant outside or in proximity) 4-5m away from the road itself presenting zero actual hazard to road users whatsoever. It often gives a 'for the sake it' type of feel (as if reported someone's kid is in the passenger seat bored). It is pretty annoying and often jolting when it happens say more than 5 times in a 1 hr journey whilst you're driving along concerned…

Don't display next turn on the app screen too soon
On a recent drive, I was exiting along a long cloverleaf exit ramp from a major highway onto a major roadway. As I entered the loop, the display changed to show the next turn. I realize that it said "in 5.4 miles", but the popup of the next turn grabs one's attention and was very confusing to see while I was on the exit loop.
Perhaps delaying the Next Turn message until I entered the segment of the road along the new roadway would have been better.
I can provide specifics about this case including a screenshot of the app…

Railway crossings with barriers should be avoidable (or lowering route priority).
Railway crossings with barriers should be avoidable (or lowering route priority). There exists near tunnel bypasses very often.
Note, the above problem can be solved by allowing discrimination of chosen road segments while creating navigation route.1 vote -

English for South Africans
I nominate Darren Maule, a South African radio DJ, comedian and local celeb, to do English (South Africa) voice over for navigation. His voice can be soothing or silly, and there are no current options for a South African accent and colloquialisms (e.g. "Eish" you missed your turn off, and we call traffic lights "robots" etc.) You can find him on LinkedIn.

Hide
Dear Waze support, I really like your app and I'm using a lot. Because of that reason, I got second time a screen burn issue of the Yellow bubble on the right bottom corner.
This is the only thing during usage which is always on the same place and can't be hidden or put somewhere else.I'd really appreciate if you can spend more time about this non functional requirements in the future.
Thanks again!

Dear waze, it will be hel
Dear Waze, Thank you for your service!
Please take into consideration the possibility to implement vocal posts, because if one is driving, until he notifies a pothole, he is already past the pothole and the information will not be accurate. If you can mark the place by voice, it will be easier to provide accurate information.
Thank you!2 votes -
Safer operation
Be able to swipe left or right after selecting routes to switch to map view or list. Make alternate roots easier to navigate overall cuz you know we're using it while we're driving since since there's traffic
