search and set destination by grid reference
In the UK, websites often give a Grid Reference as opposed to a Postcode for the location of an event, especially in the countryside where a postcode covers a large area. The grid reference is therefore a more accurate way of indicating the destination.

Aide aux usagers
Serait-il possible d'ajouter une option lorsque nous sommes en difficultés ou avons besoin d'aide sur la route. Exemple: une personne fait une crevaison mais aurait besoin d'aide pour installer la roue de secours aux abords d'une route à laquelle les gens ne peuvent pas arrêter l'aider en la remarquant trop tardivement. En sachant d'avance, les gens pourrait venir en aide plus fréquemment.

Instead of during phone call mute yes/no, offer more options: no muting, mute notifications, shortened directions, audible signal, mute all
Instead of during phone call mute yes/no, offer more options:
* no muting
* mute notifications (but offer normal driving directions)
* shorten directions (no TTS, no and then...)
* audible signal only (ring light bell when maneuver is upcoming and stronger bell when maneuver must be made)
* mute allThis will allow the driver to choose to get some form of navigation during phone calls, but which is still less intrusive to the phone call than usual.

I am in South Florida with no power and I haven't seen any utility trucks in my area.
I am in South Florida with no power and I haven't seen any utility trucks in my area. Since your app allows for reporting of roadside hazards could you add the feature of reporting where the utility trucks/workers are located. We don't have a lot of information on when to expect power and I understand that it doesn't mean power will be restored because they are in the area, it would be nice to know that they are closed

Very slow updates of the current traffic causes Waze to be unusable
Traffic updates have been very bad recently, where traffic changes (e.g., rush hour ends) take much time to actually appear in the app and in the suggested rout (I can easily tell when driving one way, and then see that the already cleared traffic still appear). This also occurs on traffic issues that are not shown in the app when choosing the rout. I know that traffic may buildup during my ride, but since traffic clearance is not updated correctly, I guess that there are similar issues with buildup.
After all, fast updates are the essence of Waze, and you…

Audi A4 2017 Android Auto is not touch screen. Click defaults needs to be improved for scrolling
Audi A4 2017 Android Auto is not touch screen. Click defaults needs to be improved for scrolling. Needs a review of multitouch via MMI and click defaults. Many of the screens nothing is initally selected and I have to scroll muliple times before something is highlighted. Also would like to use the MMI in the drivers vision

Add an option in the police alert for "unmarked". To me "hidden" is different than an unmarked police car.

Stop routing traffic down quiet residential streets
Your app has a very narrow focus. It doesn't take the actual street or the people that live on it into consideration. I have lived on a very quiet residential street until your app has increased in popularity. Thanks to your app, our street is now like a mini-highway and two neighbor pets have recently been killed. Additionally, your ignorant app doesn't take into consideration that it is directing traffic to take a very dangerous left turn onto Briarcliff Road. The results have been numerous accidents. Please take Stephens Drive, 30329 off your cut throughs at once.

Daily Route Prompts
I would love to have a setting I can toggle, especially for saved routes.
The idea would be that I only get prompts (that interrupt my music) for hazards/traffic on my daily route since I should know that very well. Additionally, if Waze sends me a different way due to traffic or an accident ahead I would get normal turn-by-turn directions until I am back on my normal route.

College marketing
I hope you had a good holiday! I wanted to reach out about college/campus marketing and see if that was on your radar – campus influencers/brand reps for Waze. My company specializes in unique marketing campaigns specific to the college audience (18-24). We have TREMENDOUS reach in the space.
We also work with Wholefoods, Sweetarts, Nudestix, Bed Head and other fun brands. I’d love to get on a short call to discuss what we do and how we help brands connect with the college-aged consumers.
Do you have time to speak end of this week?

Voice instrction
Hello,
I am a diligent and passionate user of waze. I want you to integrate a function that allows you to choose that the traffic voice instruction should be spoken once at half distance rather than 3 times.
Best regards.
Excellent day.

Groups on the road
Create groups, which on the road will see their members in real time, which will share their routes and destinations. This is very useful for companies and their agents on the road.

Remove "Good Morning" and replace it with the street name you're driving on
What's the point of wasting the whole bottom of the screen with goodmorning. Instead show the street name you're driving on. Especially important with emerging technology. I have a GPS rearview mirror which I'd like to leave on (NOT in navigation mode since i'm not navigating most of the time but just driving) Now if the bottom of the screen then I can follow written instructions someone wrote me on a paper and I can confirm it matches the street I'm driving on .

Add "Out of Date" as an option for images
There needs to be an option for pictures that allows you to be more specific for why it is being marked. Currently you can say it is irrelevant or inappropriate, but when the issue is that the image is out of date, there needs to be an option for that. For example, when coming to a location that has been demolished with a new building in its place, it needs to be noted that the images of the old building are out of date and, therefore, useless for the average Wazer.

Bottom menu on left or right in landscape mode
When in landscape mode, top and bottom bars decrease the height of the interface a lot. Bottom bar should be on the left or on the right to have more height for the map

"Do not disturb" - silence for safety
There are apps that block or mute messages and calls that interrupt the driver. Though, One must be aware, remember and start these apps before every ride. I recommend Adding a "silence" option in waze setting. The option should allow to block calls,messages, FB etc. individually or all at once.

Portuguese. Sugestão. Novas opções para o Waze
Tive um problema com o meu Jeep que ficou avariado numa estrada de terra batida no interior do Alentejo sem qualquer referência do local onde parei. Tive que chamar o reboque, e foi um problema porque não tinha nenhuma referência do sitio exacto onde me encontrava. O condutor tinha um telemóvel com GPS mas eu não tinha uma morada nem as coordenadas do sitio onde estava.
Se o Waze tivesse a opção de podermos fazer a pergunta “ONDE ESTOU?” e se fosse dada a informação das coordenadas desse local seria muito útil para essa informação poder ser utilizada por outras…3 votes
