I have an idea! I want Waze to develop an app that all US users can access that will help with Homeland Security.
I would love to see Waze develop a "WazeWatch" app that would allow users to post terrorist activity or home land security issues. If someone with the app see some suspicious activity they could put is on the "WazeWatch" app and all of the "WazeWatch" app users in the area could be alerted to the perceived threat. Then others in the area could agree or disagree with it. The real threats would be noticed by hundreds of citizens and they could take action and call the police, stop the activity before it can escalate or evacuate.
Imagine the mass shooting…

Notice Dialogs
Notices (car on side of road, etc.) that have a 'not there' or 'thanks' should allow tapping on either half of the whole dialog rather than just in the smaller buttons at the bottom of the dialog. It takes too much 'attention' to hit the button while driving.

This is exactly why I am going back to Google Maps
Why have points? Is there any good reason? Do you get a prize? If it's just for show, I don't have time for games. I would rather use Google Maps, when I can't understand why I am getting points. And it serves no purpose. There are already so many overload where what people create serves no purpose and is useless.
It's a great app, but some of us are too grown to care about points. If I get points at a store or movie theater, there is an incentive. There's no with WAZE. And that's too bad.

Ce n'est pas une idée, je pense que waze à atteind un degré de perfection exceptionnel, j'ai une simple question et vous saurezsaurez à tran
Question
J'ai remarqué en roulant dans différentes voitures que la vitesse indiqué par waze est toujours inférieur d'environ 7 km du compteur de la voiture, quelle est la vitesse réel, vous ou le compteur.
En cas de litige sur la vitesse, puis-je me fier à votre vitesse ?

דיווחי מיפגע בכביש - ברובם לא אמינים
ברוב המכריע של המקרים שראיתי דיווח על מפגע בצד הדרך - היה מדובר ברכב שעמד במרחק בטוח, לפעמים מעבר לשולי העפר של הכביש, וטכנית לא היה ניתן להתנגש בו בלי לרדת לגמרי מהכביש וכמעט ליפול לתעלה. ריבוי התראות השווא (משתמשים שמשועממים מדי בנסיעה?) - מתסכל, מסיח הדעת מהנהיגה ופוגע בבטיחות גם ע"י אפקט "זאב זאב" (אני מראש כבר לא מאמין להם). צריך איכשהו להפסיק את זה

Problem with your new version
Your new version requires me to re-establish favorites, then it doesn't allow me to enter them. Recommend you fix that. I've entered my "work" address 6-7 times, and it never registers. Ditto home. All my favorites have been blanked out.
Best I can tell, the new version has effectively disabled the "favorites" function.

Why is my speed being tracked?
I do not like that my speed is being tracked. For what purpose? To tell if the traffic is moving or not?

New Screen is HORRIBLE!
Screen looks like a toddler's video game now! I can't check for other routes without going through a couple of different screens, no street names except for highways and large thoroughfares. I used this app all the time and recommended it to everyone, but I don't think I'll be recommending it as much anymore. I get that it uses less battery power, but really... it's a DRIVING app!!! Plug the phone IN while your'e driving if you don't want your battery to get used up!

Traffic stops.
Would be nice if the police report had the option of reporting just a traffic stop. Lots of users report when a vehicle is being pulled over

Upgrade servers to support HTTP2/ SPDY - Faster load times
Waze.com should switch on HTTP2/SPDY support.
It provides faster page loads - Chrome supports it.
Here is the very simple guide to get this going fast. https://bjornjohansen.no/enabling-spdy-nginx

Screen slide to reveal friends list feels very "trigger happy"
Have noticed it quite difficult to pan and zoom the live map without activating the "Friends" sliding drawer from the right side of the screen.
