cumulate roundabouts
when there is a series of roundabouts where you have a long straight route, the voice guidance quickly becomes annoying, as it repeats the same thing over and over again.
take this example (i have recorded the route and waze behaviour) https://youtu.be/80v8nIPkqQ0
you hear the voice guidance repeating itself all over again
instead when i have a clearly straight route interrupted by roundabouts, please just tell me "roundabout, slow down". that's the most important thing a driver need to listen to when they approach a roundabout that does not change their course.
stop repeating to me that i should take…

Return to the continuous solid blue line
A recent upgrade has introduced a white arrow at junctions. It has made it harder to see where to go with just a glance at the screen. Sometimes the road after the turn is only a tiny bit of blue on the edge of the screen, so you need you need to look longer to see where Waze is taking you. It's particularly bad in poor light. Taking your eyes of the road for longer is not good for safety.
The white arrow adds nothing, please return to the clarity of the continuous solid blue line.

Change the "watch out" alert.
I think it would be beneficial to change the way Waze gives alerts. The automated voice says "Watch out" and it's for a vehicle on the shoulder like 2 miles a head of you, or for a cop or something in the middle of the freeway. When Waze alerts about these issues, it always makes my heart drop. Imagine you are on the rode at night and your passenger, says "WATCH OUT" very loud, it would frighten anyone, and the last person you want to be scared is the driver. Maybe something less urgent, for non urgent alerts, like "alert"…

Waze for the handicapped
I think it would be extremely beneficial for Waze to expand its horizons to help handicapped people find accessible routes to make their commute easier. Even seemingly mundane tasks become arduous given that every navigation system is catered toward visibly able individuals. Maybe partner up with the commuters themselves and create these routes! Google maps should install this feature, pronto.

Search Content
When performing a search for say a general business name such as "Walmart", allow for travel time to be displayed with the search results. It currently seems to only support distance when trying to find locations of a business.
The closest location is not always the fastest. Many factors such as accessibility, traffic, speed limit can make a closer location take much longer to get to. Please allow for current travel time for those who would drive a little further if it can save time.

Distance to next maneuver sent to car's Android Auto capable head unit
While running inside Android Auto, it would be nice if Waze would send the distance to the next maneuver to the car's head unit.
For example, while Google Maps runs in AA, on the car's instrument cluster and heads up display the next maneuver can be seen, including the distance to it. When Waze runs in AA, only the next maneuver can be seen, without the distance to it.6 votes -
TAKE OUT POLICE REPORTED AHEAD.
Police reports makes the drivers alert at that short particular moment. Especially those inconsiderate drivers who drives near the divider fast and cut in to the other lane opposite to what they used to speed forward. This MAKES THE JAM WORSE! INCONSIDERATE DRIVERS SHOULD BE PUNISHED SO THAT THEY LEARN.

Flagged Place reject reason
It would great if you could communicate with Flagged place request to tell the Waser why their update request is being denied or feed back to educate the Wazer. I keep getting flagged Places because the gas price is wrong. Wish I had a way to educate the user on how to update the price.

Friendliness Points
Currently we get points for driving and map report items. I think it would be great to make point categories. A category for driving points, map report points, and a friendless point category. You earn points by thanking people who report map items. And with the new option asking for help, the person can award the good samaritan with friendliness points. Also perhaps a way for the person whom asked for help can see beforehand how “friendly “ their helper is.
2 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Long words in UR's disappear/break - Waze App
Recently, "long words in UR's disappear/break" was fixed in WME map, allowing the editor to see an entire URL posted in UR conversation.
This feature wasn't implemented in Waze app, making impossible for the Wazers to see an entire URL posted by the editor, like the URL to access the Waze Support or Wazeopedia websites.4 votes
