Other Side Reporting
You used to have "Other Side of Road" for reporting. It was AWESOME and I used to report vehicles on the other side on the shoulder, and appreciated getting the notification about that. It's only available with the Police now; please bring that back. Why did you take it away?
621 votesThank you for your suggestion!
This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being. Adding more and more options to reporting, especially for less popular types of reports such as other side which will also require another window/card, is not something we are aiming for at the moment. Please be aware that other side reporting is already available by voice using the Google Assistant! We believe investing in voice can create essentially a better and more scalable experience and we hope to bring it to more languages soon.
Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram. -
Approaching services
It would be good for notifications for service stations and/or list of service stations on a route entered and/or planned. This helps for planning journeys or whilst travelling knowing where they are in advance

Voices
Dear developers, please keep the themed or promotional voices available! The work has already been done and it has already been approved by the users so do not delete the files that we have downloaded already and we like it!
3 votesThank you for your suggestion!
As you probably know, 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!

Tammy Dombeck - The Gridlock Buster
I am nominating my beautiful bride Tammy Dombeck to be one of your voices. Tammy was the Traffic reporter on the NBC affiliate in Dallas-Fort Worth for 14 years. After she left, she spent 3 years at the CBS affiliate as their morning and afternoon traffic reporter. We live in Fort Worth and I commute to Dallas during the week so I have been using yoru app for a couple of years. Love it. What I do miss is seeing and hearing Tammy give her traffic reports. I also am guessing that there are thousands and thousands of people here…

Vocal instructions only on highway
I turn off the vocal instructions because it's really annoying when you are in a city (you have instructions everytime).
But I would have the possibility to have the vocal instructions on the highway because when you travel far away, the time fir the next exit to take can be really long and so, you don't remember to take a look to waze and I missed my exit a lot of time.

Background traffic info collection
Waze seems to have problems detecting traffic fast enough in zones where it isn't heavily used. In these zones other navigators simply do better in what Waze should be the king.
A solution might be adding an option to allow Waze collecting anonymous info such as user speed, location and direction even when closed, as a background service, to help increase traffic accuracy.
This way everybody with Waze installed can contribute to increase traffic accuracy (instead of just those who have the app actually running).
Since this can be considered a privacy concern for certain people, it could be done…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.

Para que informar blitzes da polícia? Só ajuda bandidos!
Olá venho por meio deste e-mail, solicitar que os desenvolvedores do app retire a função de informar ao motorista uma possível blitz da polícia. Esse tipo de informação prejudica o serviço de inteligência da polícia que levanta informações sobre o índice de roubo e infrações que determinada via possa a ter. Isso corrobora para que motorista inabilitados e menores de idade tenha acesso facilitado pelo app e possam saber as localizações exatas onde cada blitz da polícia ou de agentes de trânsito se encontram dificultando assim o trabalho das instituições que cuidam e zelam pela manutenção das leis outorgadas pela…

Different icons for search results
Is is possible to differentiate the icon for cities and for all other places in search results?
Currently all of them have this "pin" icon and this is okay for all places, but it would be much clearer, if you used different icon to mark cities (like a globe or something).
Mockup: https://www.upload.ee/image/6691418/results.png
In this example the first result is a village and a cottage with the same name is the second.28 votes -

Need ability to plug in stops by hours or miles for long trips
Would love ability to plug in stops by either miles or hours along a route from Michigan to Florida. Then, show hotels, restaurants and gas stations at those stops. I had to get driving directions from Grand Haven, MI to Naples, Florida. I wanted to take 2 1/2 days to get there. I currently had to download each state I would drive through, then find out the distance to certain cities that I wanted to stop at after 8 hours on day one, then 8 hours on day 2 then drive just a few hours on the last day to…
