want to create link on website, that make Waze destination point by clicking on it (using smartphone browser)
Invent URN format like waze:// and register waze to handle it. Then will be possible to create Waze destinations on websites to easy navigate.
Same URN can be used as easy destination sharing with friends.5 votes -
Plugins!
Instead of competing against other products and services, why not allow them to be PART OF (feed info into) Waze? Plugins, if you will.
Case in point: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOyhnwA6MQo
Escort Live is a social driving program for people who use Passport Radars. Wouldn't it make more sense for everyone ("them" because they'd be able to enjoy Waze and its massive user database, and "us" because we'd get the real-time radar info?) if Escort Live was available inside Waze?
Waze is great because it's so clean, so I understand not wanting to have other data services "clutter up" the experience, so perhaps…

Use more user polling to keep alerts current
I love waze, but I often find that alerts on the map or 30-40-60+ minutes old and no longer relevant. I'd suggest that every user who drive past a reported even be polled.
Even better would be to not award points for reported events until they've been validated by a different user (or reward partial points until validation). Token points should also be awarded for answering a poll - and polling it should be able to be disabled.
I imaging something like:
"Poll: A Wazer has reported standstill traffic at your location" options would be "Agree - Standstill traffic" "No…

individual vocal cue control
I would love to be able to turn the different vocal cues on and off individually. The only option currently seems to be to get a cue 1/4 mile before the turn, 1/10 mile before the turn, and at the turn itself. The 1/10 mile warning always comes immediately after the 1/4 mile warning, making it useless and annoying, so I'd really like to be able to turn that one off!

Optional speed based auto zoom for normal (non-routing) use.
I just thought it would be nice for it to zoom in on cities, towns and then zoom out on highways. It might be able to save data usage for normal use.

Use glGenTextures in texturing code
Using glGenTextures in Waze texturing code will expand compatibility with more devices.

To be able to fix a destination by a button " Target GPS " when we arrive at destination?
It would be interesting to be able to fix a destination by a button " Target GPS " when we arrive at the destination with WAZE. In this manner, we could very precisely memorize a point of arrival in the favourites.
What do you think about it?

Live data freshness on the road : how many Wazers drove here recently
It would be nice to have some kind of visual feedback (not necessarily on the map, but maybe a gauge on the screen) on how many wazers drove though this road recently (like in the past hour or so). So that we can get some confidence rating on the data (or lack thereof).
It could be used for routing as well, maybe by letting the user prefer itineraries with great confidence, ie where some people drove recently.
Finally, it could aloso be used to give some kind of confidence indice on the itinerary.2 votes -
More icons for existing report types
Currently many of the icons displayed on the map are shared across different reports, this means the driver must tap them to find out what they are (if they do not pop up automatically) eg. "Car on shoulder" and "object on road". This is frustrating when some warnings are fairly insignificant and others more serious, like my previous example. Additional icons would allow drivers to understand the reports at a glance with no extra taps required when issuing a report.

Google+/Latitude check-in button
The Foursquare check-in feature is nice, but I prefer Google Latitude/Google+ check-ins and would love to have a check-in button for that so I don't have to exit Waze to get to it.

Offer a "Known Enforcement Point" report
Offer a "Known Enforcement Point" report the way trapster does it. Report an area where police tend to hide and take radar.

Possibly Clear Up what is meant by the "Traffic Jam" reports
Instead of having "Moderate", "Heavy" and "Standstill", why not clarify these categories a little more. They could possibly be instead "Congestion", "Slow Down" and "Standstill". I think these adequately reflect the different degrees of traffic jams that occur. Congestion is still dangerous but might not reflect a great decrease in speed. When drivers will have to decrease their speed that is useful to know, and of course "Standstills" are self explanatory.
An alternative option could be to elaborate on the provided categories more instead of changing them. They just seem a little ambiguous.3 votes
