Improve waze when traffic is lighter than usual
Hi, It seems that the algorithm is mainly based on statistics of traffic. I can explain: August 15th was a day off in France and of course the traffic was very very light But when using Waze that day, the time and routes poposed by Waze were fully erroneous and really not usable at all! Sytadin.fr was enough that day to decide where to drive...
This kind of issueof course occurs for all holidays, like during summer or Christmas holidays.
Is there a way to improve that?

Driving through the game reserve I was thinking how with a little advertising, wazers could post sightings for people to get to see more. I just finished A 4 Hour Game Drive and was wondering how nice it would be to have a live feed of all animals that were cited

התראה מוקדמת על צומת מרומזר
התראה וידיעה מראש לנהג על היות הצומת שאליו הוא מתקרב צומת מרומזר היא חשובה מאד לתכנון הנסיעה ולבטיחות המשתמשים בדרך. הדבר צריך להיעשות הן בצלמית רמזור על המפה והן בהתראה קולית למי שבחר באופציה הזו.

Some of the voices we feature are promotional, meaning they are only available for a limited time.
We offer special voices for holidays, events, and just for fun.
You can use these for the length of the promotion. When the promotion ends, your voice will reset to the default and the voice will no longer appear in the Sound menu.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!
Want to try another voice?
Tap Menu and tap the Settings wheel.
Tap Voice & sound.
Tap Voice Language and select the voice you’d like to use. -
I can no longer report a speed limit issue
I used to be able to tap the speed limit icon and it would allow me to report errors in the speed limit. Now, it doesn't. This has happened since 6/30/17 I believe or within a few days thereof.

Police notification should be much sooner.
Police notification should be much sooner. When I know the road and using Waze only as police radar then notification should be at least 1km ahead instead of 300 or 400 metres.

Yellow Box Junction Cameras
TLDR Version: At the moment on Waze you can only report either speed cameras, red light cameras or fake cameras, having a 'yellow box junction' camera would be a logical and great addition imho.
Non TLDR Version: Yellow box junction cameras drive me nuts (for those not UK based these are cameras that make sure yellow box junctions - ie boxes marked on the road to stop drivers stopping at the entrance to a side junction and blocking it), mainly because not all yellow boxes are enforced with cameras (so drivers from all angles enter it and the only way…

Samsung Gear S2 integration
I'd like Waze to integrate with the Samsung Gear S2, which is on the Tizen OS. Most particularly, I'd like vibrate reminders of upcoming turns. Also, navigation initiation and address lookup would be useful.
I'm using the device with a Nexus 6 on Marshmallow.

OPTION: Hide your home address/work address from main settings screen
If I ever lose my phone, it's too easy for someone to open the Waze app and see where I live and where I work. An option to hide those would be good.

Inshore boat hazard and police icons
Please add a boat police icon for inshore "water waze." Many times we are detained and searched on the way into the ramps or home and it would be nice to know what areas are being observed and delayed by police and game wardens. I was thinking of a sinking boat for hazards and a blue light boat for law enforcement.

A passive aggressive woman that thinks all men are wrong
A woman that tells you you are wrong even if you go the right way, and goes off if you make a wrong turn. Trying to get my wife to play along and do this, but she isn't in the mood.

Popup traffic messages when screen is black
I suggest a function, if Waze runs in background or the phone display is turned off black, Waze not just says, but shows with graphic popup window the road and traffic messages, alerts etc.
Then it if no action was made by the user, the popup automatically disappear in predefined seconds laterMany times for many reasons we do not want charge the phone, but the "screen always on" mode drains a battery a lot. (IPhone and Android)

make the baby icon a mood!
I really love the baby icon and I didn't know that after driving 100 miles it would change!! :( I wish the baby could be added as a mood, it would make me so happy to have it back!

To small numbers
Hi, i have updated to the latest version of waze. While driving, i always mount my phone in landscape position (90 degrees)
I realized that the guide of remaining distance and remaining minutes has gone in tilt position. It only appear sometimes bit to small to read it. Need magnifying glass to read the number remaining minutes and kilometers.
This is so troublesome and not user friendly. I wiah i could downgrade it to the previous version where i can read it easily.
Fyi, i am using it on Huawei P9. Really hope you can fix this in the soonest…

Options for other traffic issues
I've had issues where Waze has sent me on a course where there have been turn signal issues. Lots of traffic due to a malfunctioning turn signal. It seems that there isn't a specific option but maybe there could be some kind of catch all option so Wazers could warn others ?

Add an Undo / Revert Button to "View History"
Sometimes edits are made not following the guidelines or not reflecting the actual road conditions (the editor thinks what is seen in the satellite imagery / Street View is current).
Since the history of the objects is already tracked, a revert button should be simple enough to implement and can save valuable edit time.
