Allow Waze users to correct sightings of "mobile police cameras" when it fact the devices are "license plate readers".
My town has many "license plate readers" that allow police to locate stolen cars or to respond to Amber and Silver alerts. Too many people report them as "mobile police cameras". These devices are not "mobile" and they are not intended to monitor speed. They are intended to locate bad actors. In fact, Waze should not identify these plate readers because they might help bad actors escape detection.

התראת רכב כבד בשולי הדרך
חשוב מאוד וודאי ימנע תאונות! ההתראה הידועה על רכב בשולי הכביש מופיעה הרבה פעמים ונהגים התרגלו אליה וכשמדובר ברכב כבד הסכנה לתאונה עולה משמעותית במיוחד גם כשהרכב הכבד תופס את כל השול, אני מציע להוסיף התראה מיוחדת לכך ולסייע מאוד בהפחתת תאונות אולי גם אפשרות של ״רכב כבד״ אחרי לחיצה על ״רכב בשול הדרך״.

Reduce Distance in which School Zones are Merged
Currently, two school zones with 500 m (1640 feet, or about 0.31 miles) will be merged. This can lead to the driver being told they are within a school zone for over 0.5 miles, when they are not. The criterion for merging should be a shorter distance, with no merging if the zones have different speed limits.

Suggestions to Improve Waze User Experience
Dear Waze Team,
My name is Fabio Martinez Coello, and I am a Colombian user who relies on your application on a daily basis. I would like to thank you for the great service you provide, which has become an essential tool for navigation.
Based on my daily experience, I would like to share some suggestions that could help improve the application and make it even more user-friendly:
1. Always display the programmed destination address:
It would be very helpful if the selected destination address remains constantly visible. Sometimes, due to typing errors or…3 votes -
searching for gas stations, restaurants, or parking lots along my active route
Hi Waze Team, I’d like to propose a feature: when searching for gas stations, restaurants, or parking lots along my active route, Waze should first display the ones that are directly on my route and on the same side of the road I'm driving on, leaving the ones off-route for the end of the list. It would be much more practical. The goal is to prioritize places that don't require making detours or U-turns, showing businesses located right on the shoulder/side of the road first, and placing options that involve crossing the avenue or detouring at the bottom of the…

Credibilidade dos alertas
Policiais estão com celular na mão para desmarcar o alerta no mesmo momento que adicionamos. Teria que haver uma segurança para isso. Acredito não ser difícil entender que um wazer desmarcando "alertas" nas mesmas coordenadas seja alguém parado ali para prejudicar os outros, como o caso do policial. Sugiro que um mesmo wazer não possa desmarcar um alerta de radar na mesma região mais de uma vez no dia, e que um alerta de radar móvel/polícia só seja desmarcado após 5 wazers diferentes marcarem como "inexistente" o alerta. Que de alguma forma seja , os wazers (no caso policial) que…

Request for Satellite Map View in Waze
Hello Waze Support Team,
I’m writing to request that Waze add an option to view the map in satellite mode. The app currently only shows the default map style, and having a satellite view would be very helpful for navigation and for recognizing locations more accurately.
Many navigation apps offer both standard and satellite map modes, and I believe this feature would greatly improve the user experience in Waze.
Thank you for considering my suggestion.
Kind regards,

Augmenter grandement la taille des caractères vitesse et panneaux et alertes
onjour,
La taille des caractères et des panneaux à agrandir. Les affichages sont trop petit sur les écrans et cela quelque soit la taille y compris gps moto et les téléphones.
Voir une alerte accident ou vitesse pose problème et plus encore sur un téléphone ou un gps moto. Même les panneaux sont beaucoup trop petit.
A partir de 40 ans la vue ne fait que baisser à vous d’adapter l’ergonomie visuelle de votre super application. Multiplier au moins par 4 la taille des caractères de la vitesse et des alertes serait raisonnable.
Merci à vous pour l’évolution.2 votes -

Caution: Unusual activity reported nearby. Slow down and drive with care.”
I’d like to propose a community-reported Safety Alert for situations where unusual or unclear activity near the roadway creates uncertainty and potential risk, even when the cause is not clearly visible or identifiable.
In these moments, uncertainty itself becomes a road safety issue, leading to panic braking, sudden U-turns, or drivers unknowingly entering unstable areas.
Examples include:
Sudden crowd activity blocking streets
Chaotic traffic behavior with no clear incident
Loud or alarming sounds affecting driver focus
Unstable situations where drivers begin stopping or turning around abruptly
In these cases, uncertainty itself becomes a road safety issue.
Proposed alert
Name: Safety…

Where did keep on top during calls went?
Where is it? it used to be under Settings -> General. When a phone call arrives, Waze disappears, it makes the driver have to fiddle with their phone, which is illegal and very dangerous. Where did this option go on iOS 26?
Please bring this back, this is kinda urgent tbh, given the risk involved.2 votes -

Report temporary traffic lights using MapMate should generate a roadworks hazard not a UR
In the UK, when we have roadworks with an incursion onto the carriageway, they are often accompanied by temporary multi-way traffic lights. This allows the road to remain open, while controlling traffic flow over a narrow than normal bit of open road.
Since the introduction of MapMate reporting, we have noticed an increase in MapMate URs coming in referring to the presence of temporary traffic lights. This should not generate a UR, and should generate a "roadworks" hazard report.
I have raised this on the Waze Discuss MapMate thread, but it has been suggested that this feature is not on…

Alert regarding illegal waste disposal sites.
Hello Wase!! My name is Carlos Reckert, I am a software engineering student and I am currently developing a university extension project on the UN SDGs. My idea is that, since there is already a feature to report potholes in the road in the application, a function should also be added to report locations with irregular disposal of household waste and debris. This would be another public and social utility promoted by your platform. The social impact would be significant not only in my city/community, but anywhere there is an active user willing to engage. This initiative would facilitate the…

התראת שוטר סמוי בתנועה
התראת שוטר סמוי בתנועה- דיווח על שוטר סמוי בתנועה.
- ההתראה נשארת פעילה בטווח של כ־200 מטר מהמיקום החי של הנהג המדווח.
- כל עוד הנהג המדווח ממשיך בנסיעה, ההתראה מתעדכנת בזמן אמת ונעה איתו.
נהגים בסביבה יקבלו התראה לפי המיקום שלהם:
- נהגים שנמצאים מאחורי הרכב המדווח: “שוטר סמוי לפניך בטווח של 200 מטר.”
- נהגים שנמצאים לפני הרכב המדווח: “שוטר סמוי מאחוריך בטווח של 200 מטר.”
אימות קהילתי:
- נהגים בסביבה יכולים ללחוץ “ראיתי” כדי לאשר את הדיווח.
- ברגע שנהג מאשר, ההתראה הנעה מופעלת גם אצלו וממשיכה להתעדכן לנהגים שנמצאים בטווח של 200 מטר ממנו.
- דיווחים שאושרו נשארים פעילים לזמן מוגבל.
- דיווחים שלא…

New tag
I would like to propose a new tag to go with the police category. With the proliferation of license plate readers, I think there should be a new, separate tag for those. In my area, numerous people are tagging the readers as mobile police cameras, which is incorrect. I think it would benefit all users to add this tag.
