  1. Prioritize freeways option

    I drive large trucks and trailers on a regular basis, and in my CDL course we're taught to stick to state roads with a number or a letter, examples: state highway 10, county highway N. If it's got a name we probably shouldn't be on it. There's the button to avoid freeways, but I'd love the opposite as it would be a simple way to do truck/trailer/rv friendly routes.

    Even in my personal car I'd prefer it as I prefer cruising over stoping/turning all the time. Also in my experience the state and county highways are usually more well maintained…

  3. Change font size on search results

    When you enter a search the first summary line is <- Your location (in large font) -> address (in small font) The small font is hard to read (especially for those of us who need glasses for reading but not driving). It makes much more sense to have the "Your location" in small font (or not there at all because it is always the same text) and the desired address in the largest font possible on the screen

  5. Emphasize searching by business address during user onboarding.

    As a volunteer editor, I deal with many URs that involve what the user perceives to be "incorrect" address navigation. I frequently find myself advising reporters to search by business name instead of address, because the business PP is generally more accurate than the HN. It would be great if this could be added to the tips that are shown to a new user when they first run the app. I think this would reduce user frustration because they likely expect navigation to the building like in GMaps when they enter an address. They don't realize they are being taken…

  8. Feux tricolores / Trafic lights

    De nombreux Wazers, comme moi, utilisent les feux tricolores en panne, pour signaler des feux de travaux.
    Many Wazers, like me, use broken traffic lights to signal construction traffic lights.

  9. Move Over or Slow Down

    Instead of saying "Look out, vehicle on shoulder ahead," can the alert instead say 'Move over or slow down, vehicle on shoulder ahead.' Most states have move over laws and we want drivers moving over or slowing down for roadside vehicle situations. 'Look out' is not only jarring and uninformative, it lacks guidance and direction on what action drivers should take.

  10. Trust based system for report longevity

    Hi Waze Team,

    I’d like to suggest adding a trust-based system to improve the accuracy of reports. The idea is that users who consistently receive upvotes on their reports could have their future reports trusted for a longer duration by default. This would reward reliable contributors while reducing the impact of inaccurate or spam reports.

    For example, if a user frequently provides reports that receive positive feedback, their new reports could remain visible longer before requiring additional confirmations. Conversely, reports from users with a lower trust score could require more confirmations sooner.

    I believe this could enhance the reliability of…

  11. Longer lasting in lower population

    Potholes, hazards, construction and other things similar to this should remain on the map longer in lower populated areas as there are less people to upvote these. People shouldn't have to report the same pothole several times a day, these need to have a higher default lasting time and take into consideration the Waze user density in that area.

  13. Add a HOT/HOV lane on-screen toggle

    Please add an on-screen toggle when the HOT/HOV lane is coming up. Many people have different times they use the lanes. For instance, I always use the HOV lane when I have another passenger, but obviously never use it when I am alone. For the HOT lane, I only use it if the cost is under a couple dollars. I've seen it go up in the teens, and that is way too much. I only make these decisions while already driving because I'm not thinking about them at the start of the trip in the suburbs. If I'm driving alone,…

  15. Como sugestão, a tela poderia ser configurável para poder enviar alertas com apenas um toque ao invés de abrir a caixa de perigo .

    Para agilizar o envio de alertas de perigo, a tela inicial já deveria ter esses ícones, por exemplo, buraco, carro parado, polícia, objeto na pista, etc.
    E tudo isso de forma configurável !
    Conforme a demanda de cada usuário e da realidade de cada região !
    Porque até abrir a tela de perigo e encontrar o ícone desejado, já se passaram alguns quilômetros!
    Muitos deixam de reportar alguma situação por conta dessa dificuldade, afinal estamos dirigindo !
    Presumo que seria uma forma de deixar o aplicativo mais acertivo, com o aumento de usuários que passariam a utilizar esses alertas, pois…

  18. Alternate route display should follow the setting for "Keep map north up"

    If "Keep map north up" is off then alternate routes should be displayed with my position at the bottom of the screen.

    This will make it easier to visualise alternate routes relative to my current position.

    Also applies to the app but I'm only able to select one category.

  19. Danger Zone

    Cameras are placed in known danger zones.
    Usually the danger is within 100m either side of the camera.
    Sometimes it is not allowed to plot cameras.
    But a general warning - danger zone in 200m - would be useful.

  20. Screensaver

    In Ontario/Canada as per Highway & Traffic Act, it is illegal to use smartphone/device without hands free operation, and police have stated that submitting status info on apps such as Waze is illegal as per Act and grounds for ticket for not driving “hands free”. Fine for doing so (and using Waze) and distracted driving is currently over $600-800 and 3’demerit points.

    Of course I observe police cruisers driving with hands on computer console violating traffic act.

    It would be great to have a screensaver (blank screen or other) that could be quickly toggled on Waze display (phone and/or CarPlay)…
