  1. russian

    Please fix the issue about resetting audio language on version upgrade. Whenever you release a new version, my selected setting (English (US)) gets defaulted back to "Russian", which is even not the state language in my country!

  2. Shark notification

    There are has been a lot of attention this season on the coast about shark attacks. As a wazer, I have my phone with me when I'm on the beach. I think it could be useful if waze could be utilized on the coasts to tag that a shark has been seen in an area, much like we are able to do now with hazards and things. This could be a first alert type of system that could send notifications to other wazers in the area.

  4. Ad a ”hide me at this address" function

    Suggestion: Make an option to hide me from view to all other wazers within a radius of ?200? meters from a selected address
    Why: For example, At home I want to follow my wife/husband coming from work, and I turn waze on, now everyone can see where I (my nickname) live. From there it is easy to track me when I am home or out at it becomes easy to track my routines.
    In the long run it would be nice if accepted friends could se you at home, and that you could choose our own radius.

  6. report road bullying

    I have to say I disapprove with the feature of reporting police posts. Why don't you supply with an app that reports under-cover police to the mob too?
    Anyway, to counter that, I suggest an option to report road bullying, so I can report drivers that are inconsiderate and dangerous to others.
    This will allow police to see both current happenings and "trends", which might help them be more efficient on catching these menaces.

  7. Make Waze icon change appearance when Waze is 'asleep'

    Often I put Waze to sleep, or try, only to find out, hours later, that it woke up as I was leaving and it has been eating my battery for hours.
    Please figure out a way to change it icon's appearance so I know it is sleeping.

  8. When planning a trip on PC in advance, the names of narrow streets are often hidden by the proposed routes, which is annoying

    Make the route line colour semi transparent so one can see the street name underneath it.

  9. Sziasztok lenne néhány ötletem...

    Két hete Esztergomban voltam diáktalálkozón (Ferencesek), ott kaptam egy Waze matricát, az óta lelkes használó vagyok...sajnos azt tapasztalom, hogy a környékünkön (Zala megye Magyarország) sokan nem merik használni, attól félnek hogy valami átverés...Én a munkám miatt (területi képviselő) naponta 10-15 embernek mutatom be ezt a nagyon jó lehetőséget...viszont segítségre lenne szükségem: kellene valami, amit osztogathatok (matrica), és kellene egy jól működő androidos telefon, mert az enyém nagyon hamar lemerül...Ötleteim: mielőtt megszólal a hang, itt is legyen valami csengetés, mikor navigál...sokszor megijedek mikor hirtelen megszólal, jó lenne ha házszámra is lehetne keresni.
    hasznos lenne, ha mikor beírom a célpontot, láthatnám, az…

  11. streetview integration

    It's hard to choose between Google Maps and Waze because of streetview, it's real handy to see where I can park my car and recognise the location where I'm going ;)

  15. I often get speed flashed with waze because unlike Coyote, the danger zone is not beeping noise when you are above the speed

    Put in place a permanent noise alert while we are above the speed in a danger zone.

  17. How about some real application support?

    Here's an idea... how about offering some actual support for problems not addressed in the FAQ and canned responses?

    All of my points, accomplishments, rank, etc. were lost when I replaced my phone, and I've been trying for a month to get help, to no avail.

    My emails to waze.cases got a canned response with a case number (1-9525000006984), and instructions to reply if the problem persists. Well, it persists and my replies continue to go unanswered.

    For an app whose value is based largely on its community of users, it's very discouraging to not be able to get help.…

  19. Provide verbal traffic reports along your route

    Traffic reports should sound like ones provided on the radio. Example, "It's 17 minutes from the Stevenson to 88. There's a disabled vehicle just north of 75th street"

  20. Report when the traffic is free differentiating no communication with server

    Because I had different situations that I chose routes that had less traffic erroneously because Waze was not updated with the route of traffic information I have chosen. This lack of upgrade was due to lack of mobile signal coverage. But this should be flagged for mistakes in deciding to use a route with less traffic.
