1. Head up display

   Dear Waze Team,

   Please add Head-Up Display (HUD) support for Waze navigation in Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

   Many modern vehicles, including the new Toyota RAV4 2026, are equipped with advanced HUD systems that can display navigation instructions directly on the windshield. It would be extremely useful and safer if Waze could show upcoming turns, lane guidance, distance to the next maneuver, and other navigation information on the HUD.

   Waze is my preferred navigation app, and HUD integration would greatly improve the driving experience and help drivers keep their eyes on the road.

   Thank you for considering this feature

2. Feature Request: Touch Lock

   Please add a touch lock feature, similar to VLC or MX Player.

   As a motorcycle rider, my phone screen gets exposed to rain. Raindrops land on the screen and register as random touches — sometimes changing my route or opening settings, which disrupts my navigation mid-ride.

   A touch lock would let the screen stay visible without accepting accidental taps, keeping the map view stable in wet conditions.

   Suggested implementation: a lock button on screen that, when tapped, disables touch input. To unlock, the rider swipes across a designated area (same pattern used in VLC/MX Player), preventing accidental unlocks from stray raindrops.

3. AI Pothole & Speed Bump Detection via Phone Sensors (Waze for Cities)

   I submitted this exact concept to Google a long time ago, but no action was taken. I am bringing it here today because Waze is the perfect platform to finally make this happen.Waze should implement passive, background telemetry analysis using the smartphone's built-in accelerometer and gyroscope. An AI algorithm can easily recognize the distinct physical patterns of hitting a pothole or crossing a speed bump. To eliminate false positives, the system would require data aggregation: if multiple users register the same vertical impact at the exact same GPS coordinates, the map should automatically generate a hazard annotation.Once these hazards are mapped, Waze should add a toggle in the navigation settings to "Avoid roads with bad quality or speed bumps", functioning exactly like the current "Avoid tolls" option.Furthermore, this data should be automatically shared with local municipalities through the Waze for Cities program. Instead of waiting for citizens to manually report issues, city councils could automatically receive a live heat-map of verified potholes. This would allow cities to locate and repair broken roads much faster, saving money for both governments and drivers.

5. Cantonese

   Hi, I am a Cantonese user and I was wondering if it might be possible to introduce more Cantonese voice options for navigation.

   I really enjoy using the app, but listening to the same Cantonese voice repeatedly can feel a little monotonous at times. Having more voice variety would be greatly appreciated.

   I understand that Cantonese users may account for less than 1% of all users, but I still hope more options can be considered in the future.

   Thank you very much.

8. Add stop - total trip time

9. New Functions for Linking External Provider Locations (Google Pin)

   In the past, the WME PIE Script provided a valuable feature that allowed us to directly view the exact location of a place on Google Maps overlaid on the Waze map. Recently, this functionality was removed at Waze's request.

   Most editors, including myself, consider this feature essential. Taking this opportunity, I suggest we request improvements to this linking tool. Below are some current issues and proposed solutions:

   Issue 1:
   Currently, WME allows the same CID to be added multiple times to the same place. This creates disorganization in the links.

   Solution 1:
   Block duplicate additions of the same place. In the search list, duplicate places could be highlighted with a different color to indicate they have already been added.

   Issue 2:
   Often, the first result in the list when adding a place is not the correct one. It could be a branch, located in a different neighborhood, city, or even state, leading to incorrect links and misdirecting drivers.

   Solution 2:
   Sort search results by proximity to the place's coordinates. Additionally, when hovering over a result, the map should visually highlight the exact location of the place (a feature previously available in PIE).

   Issue 3:
   WME allows the same Google place to be linked to multiple Waze places. It’s unclear how Waze determines the correct location for the end user, but this behavior should clearly be avoided.

   Solution 3:
   Prevent a Google place from being linked to more than one Waze place. In the search list, hovering over a linked Google place should indicate which Waze place it is already associated with.

   Additional Suggestion:
   Instead of relying solely on lists for links, WME could include a new layer that displays Google places directly on the map. To link a place, users would only need to click on it.

   Building on this idea, WME could allow updating the PIN of Google places directly within the tool, eliminating the need to open Google Maps to request PIN corrections.

11. Convoy Mode

    Subject: Feature Request: "Convoy Mode" - Real-time Route Sharing for Multiple Cars

    Message:
    To the Waze Development Team,

    I am a daily Waze user and a big fan of your navigation system. However, there is a missing feature that would greatly improve the experience for many users: a true "Convoy Mode" or Group Navigation.

    Currently, the "Share Drive" feature is lagging, clunky, and doesn't clearly show the route of the other driver. When families or friends travel to the same destination in multiple cars, we need to see each other's live location directly on the highlighted route.

    The proposed feature:
    A shared session where multiple drivers navigating to the same destination can see each other as distinct icons moving smoothly along the designated route on the map, in real-time, without delay.

    Google Maps has a better live location sharing, but Waze is superior for navigation and traffic alerts. Adding a "Convoy Mode" would prevent users from having to use other apps just to keep track of each other during group trips.

    Thank you for your time and consideration.

12. Rerouting should respect road class: please add a "prefer major roads" option

    I have a long daily commute, usually two to three hours behind the wheel, and I use Waze every day. I'm based in the UK, but I think the issue below applies anywhere Waze operates.

    The problem is how Waze reroutes around congestion. As soon as there's heavy traffic or a road closure, it drops me from major roads onto very minor ones: narrow single-track lanes where traffic in both directions shares one lane, often with no street lighting and no passing places. My car is mid-size and these lanes are simply too narrow for it. At night I've hit kerbs and roadside stones several times, and I've already shattered the underbody protection plate on my car. That's a real safety issue, not just an inconvenience.

    The underlying gap is that rerouting seems to optimise almost entirely for time saved, and treats a minor road as interchangeable with a major one if the ETA is a few minutes better. For a lot of drivers it isn't. I would rather sit in a jam than be sent down a lane like that. If the choice is being late for work or risking my safety, I'll choose being late every time.

    Two suggestions:

    1. When recalculating a route because of congestion or a closure, weight road class much more heavily. Keep the driver on major roads unless the delay saved is substantial, rather than diverting onto minor roads for a small time gain.

    2. Add a user preference along the lines of "Prefer major roads", so drivers can choose to stay on higher-class roads even when the route is longer. This would need to map onto each country's own road classification. In the UK that's motorways (M) and A-roads versus everything below, and most other countries have an equivalent hierarchy that Waze presumably already holds in its map data.

    The second suggestion in particular looks straightforward to implement on top of data you already have, and would make a genuine safety difference.

    Driver that enters this road without knowing about the restriction will go all the way up the road and will have to do a u - turn, get a traffic report or to cause traffic jam at a specific area where the road is narrow that they cant pass through

16. Rendre le guide vocal un peu plus bavard

    Depuis que la nouvelle fonction "moins bavard" est apparu, j'ai mis "normal"
    Mais j'ai remarqué que le guidage vocal est moins bavard : j'ai pris la route dans le nord et il y avait une bifurcation (route en type Y) : waze ne m'a rien dit. C'est dangereux : je préférais quand il me disait "prenez légèrement à gauche..." plutôt que ... rien.

17. Don't Popup the "Would you like to enable voice control?" during navigation

    During navigation a prompt will pop up asking to enable voice control. This covers the entire screen and doesn't go away until interacted with. In many countries it's illegal to touch your phone while driving. This has essentially rendered waze useless for me and I've had to go back to google maps.

18. stop changing routes

    Please add an option to disable Waze from changing your route as soon as you start driving, I specifically choose routes that are a couple minutes longer as I hate certain roads yet it’s useless as as soon as I set off Waze has already changed my route and put me back onto the way I didn’t want to go, this is really frustrating and definitely the worst part of the app

19. Hazard Alert - Animal on Road

    Could there please be some sort of function within Waze that could give the user the opportunity to report deceased animals along the road so that the competent entities could come and collect them? Or even for pets that were just run down for a vet to come or something? Could it be connected to automatically give the competent entities the location of the animal? It’s a win-win for everyone and it keeps our road safe. Also, for objects on the road, while I’m not sure what entity would be responsible for removing them, somehow also connect to the responsible entity so that it could be promptly removed as well?

20. I would love if the EMA from Star Trek's Academy kept giving me directions

    Of all the voices I've heard giving me directions, Roberto Picardo's EMH Voice is one of the best. I am disappointed that his voice will be leaving WAZE soon. His, or maybe Majel Roddenberry's voice. =)
