Zoom to crash when planning trip
When planning a trip, on the GO NOW screen it shows icons for crashes, warnings, and delays in a line along the route. It would be nice to be able to tap these icons and be zoomed into where the incident is so we can decide other routing choices based on our own local knowledge, or change when we make the trip.

Waze speedometer is reading less than (<8 km/hr) the car speedometer.
Waze speedometer is reading less than (<8 km/hr) the car speedometer.
Is there any calibrating feature to correct the speed on the mobile screen display?
I am sorry, if this is a problem for my own mobile phone.
Thanking You…1 voteWith high probability this is not an issue of the mobile phone or app, but the issue of the car speedometer.

Fix: E-mail says reply w/ app, app has no 'reply' option
I recently entered a map error and was sent a message by an editor asking for more information. One paragraph in the email said this:
You can reply using the Waze mobile app, or https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=30.418481&lon=-97.847687&mapUpdateRequest=8551695&env=usa in the Waze map editor.
Neither of these options allows you to respond. The app has no reply option in your inbox and there is no way to access messages or reply to them through the map editor either. When I attempted to use the 'Messages' tab through the editor, I was given a 500 Internal Server Error message. As it stands, not only do…

Select initial driving direction
Very often Waze starts up navigation facing the wrong driving direction. The direction is rectified as the vehicle starts moving, but it can be too late for the initial turn.
Please add the ability to switch driving direction when navigation starts, via a button.
Additionally, Waze should make a better guess at the intial driving direction by using compass data.
12 votesThank you for this suggestion.
Setting the Car’s direction when starting the app and navigation is a known matter which will be addressed in the future.
There are many complexities in location tracking which cause this issue and hold us from providing a solution.
It’s currently on the back burner, but definitely a part of the backlog. -
Variable Toll versus Fixed Toll opton
A lot of users want Waze to add additional features for variable tolls but all I am asking for is for Waze to recoginze the difference between fixed tolls and varaible tolls. I've come to the conclusion that Waze is pretty much unusable for my comute from Falls Church to Herndon, VA becuase it either wants to take me on the unaffordable express lanes OR avoid the reasonable Dulles Toll Road.

Please create a route delivery option that will guide drivers to The docking side of a building. This will save time for drivers.
As a route driver I often use Waze especially when visiting a new customer. I have noted that Waze will always guide one to the front of the building which is not always convenient when doing deliveries. I suggest that you create a “deliveries option” for people like me. Creating a second address option for each destination i.e guiding route drivers to the docking side of the building would save time for drivers that are often on tight time schedules. This option I believe may lead to increased user demand for Waze by people like me.

Google maos and waze on the same page
My boyfriend insists on using google maos instead of waze and I know waze is owned by google so then why does waze properly show people how to get to my work at Pentair in Apopka fl but when uber drivers and friends and him use google maps it tell them to turn down the street before my work which doesn't connect and is residential? It drives me nuts! Please fix.

Not necessarily a provision but I think it would be really cool if you can make your own icon or be an alien or etc etc
I think it would be the coolest thing and others would probably agree if you can make your own icon and become something more than the list gives you like for sabian alien or b and icon that looks like yourself I think it would be really neat to personalize it and individualize the little icons so when people see you they would actually see your personality in your icon

When any driver is confirmed pick up and that person is cancelling the ride at the end where the traveller cannot get another ride and have to hire Uber or Lift and have to pay so much money who will be the responsible person to pay that money, I believe there should be the drivers responsibility to arrange another vehicle or there should be a time limit to cancel the ride by driver and cannot cancel end time. So traveler will have enough time to get another ride on time. There should be assurance for the traveller so he or…

I hate it when I search a restaurant or business and click on directions and instead of waze going to the directions, it gives me all these
I don't want 5 different address choices. I want the address of the business I requested directions for.

When people are attempting to update with baby traffic AND the route you are on shows no color on the roadway, I update with traffic conditions. Seems you can only do that a certain amount of times on a 7 mile rd . switching to another making service

waze carpool botão para pesquisar motorista e passageiro pelo nome
o aplicativo não demonstra todas as pessoas possíveis na minha rota. O motorista que peguei carona, mesmo nós dois colocando os mesmos horários não conseguimos agendar a carona para o dia seguinte simplesmente pq não apareço pra ele e ele não aparece pra mim, mesmo tendo pegado a carona recente com ele. Não tem como pesquisar ele. Isso dificulta, tenho perdido caronas de bons motoristas na minha rota simplesmente porque eles não aparecem pra mim, mas quando conversamos no zap ele estaria disponível para me dar a carona. Isso já aconteceu comigo com três motoristas diferentes.

Stop reporting minor incidents. Stop sending data to Google Maps that there is an accident
Allowing people to be amateur journalists has become a real danger. You list an accident on Google maps, but on Waze, is just a car on the shoulder. Listing these minor incidents causes people to have more traffic and accidents.
You are promoting people to use their phones to report data to you, that you turn around and sell to other companies. Sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. Why can't you just change it to major incidents. When the police are showing up to an accident, why do i see several police traps right by the accident? Maybe mislabeled…

Optimized functionalities for motorbikes
It's too bad Waze doesn't offer any of these functionalities for riders/bikers:
- deactivate traffic jams in the time calculation (or consider we are at around 50 km/h on these parts of the path)
- proposing winding/twisting roads with different levels, just like Tomtom and Garmin already do with their devices
- allowing to create more than one step point to get the perfect itinerary
- allowing the load of external files (such as .gpx for example) to create roadbooks on our computer (with Google Maps or else) and then send it to our smartphone.In brief, just a few…

Count Votes
How many votes are needed to encourage Waze to improve their app? As far as I can tell, as far back as 2016, people have been requesting and voting for favorites to be alphabetized and yet still nothing? At least a response would help to know if anyone at Waze has even looked into it.
1 voteGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.
