Add a report feature for disaster reporting so emergency responders have real time info
In today's Napa earthquake, it took many hours for emergency responders to collect, report and analyze data, do triage, etc. let the crowd report details of disaster events (type, severity, help requested, etc) and generate dashboards for emergency responders to see a summary and details of the data

power utilization
Even with my iPhone x connected to a car charger, WAZE uses too much power. It simply depletes the battery over a long drive. I have tried to separate car chargers, no joy. When I tried using Apple Maps for several hours on a long trip, my iPhone battery charged from 50 to 100 percent. Give us some specific recommendations for battery charges or reduce WAZE'S battery utilization.

Please remove from your street listing Canada Road, between Woodside Road and I280 in Woodside, CA 94062, not appropriate for commuters
Please remove from your street listing Canada Road, between Woodside Road and I280 in Woodside, CA 94062, this two lane country road is not appropriate for commuters. It has not stop lights, and only two stop signs. Long lines of cars block up this street during evening commute hours.

There's a bug in the waze app.
There is a bug in the Waze app. When Waze is verifying an account via eMail, it should not need to be case sensitive. As an example, John.Brown@gmail.com does not work. john.brown@gmail.com does work. Making J and B lower case it will work.

Add a "police are nearby" feature
Police move frequently. It would be. Nice to know if police were spotted near an area; not necessarily at a specific location. Thanks!

Toll roads
When entering in a destination, please put the toll roads option there instead of in the settings. I am a driver in New York City. All day long, I would need to go into settings and check/uncheck toll roads. When I drive a passenger, of course, all the toll roads are taken, but when returning, I avoid as much as possible. Please change the tolls feature to somewhere when entering in the destination. Thank you
102 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2023 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to have it included in our plans for later years and will keep you posted.

Normal waze voice but putting the word “the” in front of highway numbers because that’s how people from California talk
A normal, female or male voice that provides normal directions but uses “the” in front of highway name. i.e. take “the” 57 to “the” 101. This is how Californians call highways and it’s really funny to hear the contrast between natives and people that aren’t from California.

Cars with priority to be shown on the map
Hi,
would be very nice if you can start cooperation with ER, FD, police departments and try to place some sort of tracker into their cars. they can share information about their position and it can help to
speed up their road.then it would be very useful for all drivers staying in the crossroad to know and see in Waze from which direction ER, FD, police is coming . then they can free up the way for that kind of cars and there will be not so much chaos on the crossing once they need to pass around.

תאונות גמלים באזור רמת נגב וכביש 40
יום ראשון 11 פברואר 2018
יום ראשון כ"ו שבט תשע"ח
לכבוד
WAZE ISRAELשלום רב.
הנדון : בקשה להכנסת אייקון המתריע על גמלים משוטטים בכביש.
אנחנו תלמידי כיתה י"ב בתיכון לחינוך סביבתי.
במסגרת שיעורי אזרחות השנה נתבקשנו לעשות עבודה העוסקת בבעיה אזרחית כלשהי לבחירתנו.
בחרנו להתמקד בתאונות הגמלים ברמת נגב ובאזור כביש 40 בפרט
וברצוננו להציע פתרון לבעיה באמצעות אפליקציית WAZE.
נתונים אחרונים מצביעים על נפגעים בנפש ממפגש עם גמלים משוטטים על כביש 40. רק לאחרונה משפחה ממצפה רמון איבדה את בנם בן השלוש עשרה בתאונה חזיתית עם גמל. בנוסף, המשפחה ששהתה באוטו בזמן התאונה נפצעה.
במטרה למנוע אירועים מצערים…2 votes -
Bluetooth power saving causes voice to be cut. Play custom sound file before.
Some phones and car radios have a power saving feature that mutes sound if no sound is played. Then, if a voice directive comes, it SHOULD be:
"in 100 meters, turn left"
but it IS:
"ers, turn left"So an option to let the user play a custom sound file befor every directive would be useful:
"[BING] ... in 100 meters, turn left."3 votesThanks for reaching out.

An option to reduce the thickness size of streets and avenues!! Read the description to see examples!!
This option would greatly help in cases where there are many nearby streets and avenues, and bridges above these streets and avenues, not allowing us to see clearly the way we should go, or if we must keep at right or left on the track.
For example this screenshot:

Mood option for police officers.
I'd like to see a mood option for officers using waze. There would have to be a verification process where you upload a photo ID or something like that so everyone isn't using the icon.

Bridge opening
We have a lot of draw/lift bridges in the area and it would be nice if we could either report the bridge opening as a "Wazer" or if there was a way to gather that info from the web to auto generate on our app.
