  1. update alerts for other side of road

    I would like to be able to update alerts on either side of the road as no longer there, not just the side of the road I'm traveling on. Just like how Waze currently asks if a hazard is still there if it's in my traveling direction, it'd be nice to be able to click on a hazard or alert on the opposite side of the road and delete it if it's no longer there or relevant.
    Also, what happened to reporting hazards/traffic on the opposite side of the road after this newest android update? It's awful! It needs to…

  2. Switzerland

    Hi, it would be helpul to implement a Switzerland specific option, because, there, motorways are paid by a yearly "vignette". And people driving only a few km per year on these motorways, for instance to go to Geneva airport from France, may be interested by an option "Avoid Switzerland motorways (vignette)". Indeed the already existing options "avoid motorways" and "avoid paying roads" are too drastic for a journey in other countries, too. In addition, this Switzerland option should be rather "simple" to implement (?) as you "only" need to flag the concerned motorways once and there is nearly nothing to…

  5. Stop routing traffic inappropriately

    I am contacting everyone at Waze right now. Waze is causing problems.

    Highway 17 from San Jose to Santa Cruz is notorious for its beach traffic. Waze directing traffic thought downtown Los Gatos and on to mountain side roads to avoid this.

    STOP DOING THIS!

    First of all this is causing horrendous gridlock in downtown Los Gatos. The town has put up signs telling Beach Traffic to stick to Highway 17. Drivers are ignoring this because Waze gives tells them they can cut thru Los Gatos. This is causing MASSIVE problems.

    Second, DON'T direct people off Hwy 17 on to…

  8. LitterGram Car Mode

    LitterGram is a popular app in the UK and is quickly becoming the new way for 40m smartphone users to report litter to councils so they can clean it up. We are about to trial LitterGram car mode which will allow drivers to hit a button on their steering wheel whilst driving and map the littered roads/highways/lanes. Britain is the 3rd most littered nation globally and has a serious problem. This new feature will help clean up our highways and make driving in our country a better experience for the motorist. It would be great to see if you could…

  9. Increase visibility area in landscape mode.

    While using waze on my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy Note 3), the device is on its side. I like to see the map in landscape mode. With the new update (version 4.0.0.2 installed) any warnings and the display of the names of streets COVERS a big part of the map. I suggest to enlarge the área of the map shown in landscape mode for smartphones at least.

  10. police

    After making a report of police, I noticed in my Inbox that it was labeled as "police speed trap." I don't think the app should make that assumption. I report police presence ONLY to promote officer safety. Sometimes large trucks block drivers' view and they may not be able to see there is an officer (or other emergency responder) at the side of the road.

  14. Count TURNS, not distance to the next turn

    when people give directions to each other, naturally they will say 'on the 2nd turn, take a right turn'.
    We are better at counting turns, than meters or miles...
    if Waze could do the same, instead of 'in 500m turn right', it would be great

  17. PLEASE remove the reporting of potholes -- This is driving me insane.

    Hello,

    Though I do believe the initial intentions of reporting potholes were genuine, it has become an absolute nightmare for regular wazers.

    I live in a metropolitan area and, unfortunately, not many people in my area have any inclination on what a pothole actually is. This has led to people spamming the map with tens of pothole reports on any given stretch of road (usually the reports are for an uneven patch of road, or even a small bump in the road)...

    I'm sure other will agree that this issue has led to, and will continue to lead to, alert…

  18. Like/Dislike button need to be further apart

    Currently, it requires too much precision to click the like or dislike button on a report. About 10% of the time I have clicked the wrong icon. These icons need to be on separate sides of the screen instead of next to each other.

  19. Adding favorites under the home and work

    I think you should be able to see your address's you add in your favorites under the home and work so you can just click it instead of having to go into favorites then clicking on the address you want. Its 2 less steps and would save time.

  20. Tell us WHY Waze can't find a route

    Today I was in Virginia and starting a drive to Northampton, MA. Waze told me that it couldn't find a route. In fact, it couldn't find a route to Boston, or New Haven, or anywhere else north of NY, NY. (It can find a route to NY, NY). I'd like to know why. I tried multiple phones.

    When things like this happens, Waze should say WHY it can't find a route.
