Request to Strengthen and Actively Develop Waze for the Indian Market
Am writing to express a strong interest and concern regarding the current state of the Waze application in India. While Waze is technically available for download, its functionality and effectiveness in India are far from the experience offered in other countries such as the UAE, the United States, and several European regions, where the app performs exceptionally well.
Having personally used Waze in countries like the UAE, I can confidently say that it delivers superior real-time navigation, community-driven traffic updates, and smarter routing when compared to other navigation platforms. Unfortunately, in India, the app does not currently operate at the…

Get rid of the extra go nails on Android Auto. I feel like I'm going to have an accident when I have to keep pushing these go now buttons. I
While I'm driving, after entering directions, I have to hit go now, sometimes even a second go now prompt comes up. It is distracting me from driving. I clicked on the directions. I want to go there. Why the extra go nows? It's dangerous while driving.

Request for Browser-Based Chat on Waze Live Map
Hello Waze Team,
Currently, Waze’s chat-based information sharing is limited to the app, so I think it would be very useful if the same kind of communication could also be done from the browser version of Waze Live Map.
For example, if users could click on a specific location on Live Map and use a chat function to send messages to app users around that area, it would make it much easier to share local information in a simple and timely way.
In normal situations, it would be helpful if people could use a computer to post local updates such…

Car play ETA details override during upcoming Speed Camera Alerts
Hello Waze Team,
I would like to suggest an improvement to the Apple CarPlay experience when approaching speed cameras.
Currently, when a speed camera alert appears, it temporarily replaces or hides important navigation details such as the estimated time of arrival (ETA), remaining distance, and trip duration. This can make it difficult to stay aware of key trip information while driving.
I recommend maintaining the visibility of ETA, remaining distance, and travel time even during speed camera alerts, or displaying the alert in a way that does not override these essential details.
This improvement would enhance usability and allow drivers…

Stop button
Can’t always get out of Waze. Sometimes have to turn my phone off and then back on to properly exit the program. It’s a a pain and I can be walking around for days without Waze working in the background long after I’ve arrived at my destination.

Feature Suggestion: “Group Ride / Buddy Mode” for Safer and More Connected Travel
To the Waze Team,
Good day! I am a longtime Waze user, and I truly appreciate how your app continues to innovate in keeping drivers safe and informed. I would like to suggest a new feature that I believe would greatly improve the experience of many users, especially those who travel together.
I would like to propose a “Group Ride Mode” or “Buddy Mode” where users traveling as a group such as friends, families, and motorcycle convoys can see each other in real time directly on the Waze map. Many riders and drivers often travel together, and having this integrated…

School Zone
Please add "school Zone" option in carplay. This option would be beneficial instead of "wazers" giving the "hazard" notification for a school zone.

Problem with the display on the projection display.
Greetings. I use the app on my smartphone and in the Volvo XC60 2025 Plug-in Hybrid car that has Android installed. When using Google maps, all the necessary information is displayed correctly on the central, driver, and head-up displays. When using the Waze app, the information is displayed correctly on the central and driver's displays, and only the empty space is displayed on the head-up. Such a small joint, but it does not allow you to fully use the application, which in many cases exceeds Google maps. How can this shortcoming be addressed? Thank you. Good luck. Oleg K.

Stop intentionally mis-routing
Why, with I search for "costco gasoline" do you intentionally return other gas stations? You sent me to a bad part of a city I am not familiar with to a gas station that WAS NOT COSTCO!!!

We need a way to report inappropriately abandoned e-bikes and e-scooters.
We need a way to report inappropriately abandoned e-bikes and e-scooters. I see at least 3 per day left on the shoulder or median of walled-off freeways, as well as on the merge ramps and atop the many piles of frozen ice.

Change place "Closed or moved" report to "Permanently closed or moved"
Today, users often report a place as "closed" because it is temporarily under renovation, or because the listed hours are incorrect. However, if an editor accepts this report, the place is deleted, which doesn't address the actual issue. These mistaken reports could be reduced if the menu item for this report was changed to include the word "Permanently."

Bouton d'alerte
Bonjour,
Actuellement, le bouton d'alerte vocale est situé en bas à droite de l'écran waze.
Or, de plus en plus de véhicules sont équipés de tablettes info divertissement surdimentionnées , ce qui rend quasiment inaccessible le bouton d'alerte, du moins pour les véhicules à conduite à gauche....
Il serait judicieux, tant pour la sécurité que pour le confort que ce bouton soit placé en bas à gauche de l'écran...il tomberait logiquement sous la main du conducteur et éviterait la perte du regard sur la route....
Su'en pensez vous ?2 votes -

"Closed Road" in quick access
(not sure of the english term in Waze App)
One of my UR mentionned the idea to have a quick access at "Closed Road" without having to search in menu.
Most of time, users are using "Incorrect route" or "General error" instead of "Closed Road"
