Store reports created offline for short period. I.E. Police reports and accidents, see comments
I travel a lot in weak cell service areas on major interstates. I will see an accident or Police situation when I have GPS but not network it says sorry you can't report do it later. However it might be 5 or 10 miles down the road before I can then the event isn't in the right location. Suggest storing the location information along with the time so that when network returns it can be posted.

Automatically start/stop reporting on bluetooth connect/disconnect
Please consider a settings option to report traffic only if exact bluetooth device (my car HF) is connected. This could be very useful feature to avoid false traffic reports.
Settings:
- Turn feature ON / OFF
- Choose BT deviceBehaviour:
- When exact bluetooth device is connected, wait until some ratelimit speed is reached (i.e. 30 kmh) and start reporting.
- When bluetooth device is disconnected, automatically stop traffic reporting.8 votes -
Automatic switch between sleep and unsleep mode
It would be great (for saving autonomy) having a mode which turn the device screen into sleep mode (if Waze is active on the screen) and come back into active mode before some interesting action, such as a junction, an off ramp to drive, or eating roadgoodie. In the best case, the time the screen become active again would be dependant of speed.

Feature of non-static Speedcams without approval from AM
There are two things that can be reported - Police and Speedcams. Police shows up immediately, but speedcams (according to the footnote) must be approved and a user will be warned about that only if driving with excessive speed. However there are non-static speedcams too. Most users are repoting them as a police trap, but this is actually a speedcam, and it is changing its location over time. Notifying user when driving with excessive speed is ok, but I think that notifyication about non-static speedcams should be in any case, for example if there is an error in a map…

Larger Comment Box for Android
Its hard to backtrack or proofread the previous lines that have been typed when you can only practically see one line. Would be better if its like FB messenger where 3 whole lines can be seen at the same time.

Speedcam reporting in Client.
Please add possibillity to set speed limit of road when reporting speed cameras. This will make it 10 times easier to get quality data. Perhaps even when reporting the speed cam, an quick enter speed limit dialogue with the road signs of the country. Something that could be downloaded with the voice files perhaps?

Halfway there
An announcement that indicates when you're halfway to your destination would be best. Could also extend and say 3/4 of the way there or just almost there! Type announcement.

Allow facebook friends, waze group members, etc. to send an address to my handheld client if I am online.
1) When an address is recieved by the client, ask the user to accept the route, reject the route or block all address pings.
2) If I don't have a route set, auto accept the aaddress after 10 seconds.
3) Add a new category to the Address Search dialog similar to My Favorites, Recent searches, Contacts, etc. List the received addresses for easy access.9 votes -
Add Sounds to replace voice notifications
My wife hates listening to Sarah notify us of upcoming warnings. How about using sound clips instead (ex. siren for upcoming police)

Coleta e repasse de informações sobre operadoras de telefonia às próprias operadoras e aos usuários do Waze - English on text.
Collection and distribution of informations of carriers to own carriers and Waze users:
O aplicativo poderia identificar a operadora usada pelos usuários e fazer o registro, de modo a ter um mapeamento completo, nas rodovias federais e estaduais, de cobertura de dados, das operadoras de telefonia, fornecendo a elas mesmas, essas informações, de modo que possam melhorar sua cobertura, não deixando seus clientes na mão e estimulando a concorrência entre elas, além de gerando lucro ao Waze, que pode cobrar pelas informações. Da mesma forma, essa informação poderia ser disponibilizada aos usuários, na forma de aviso, quando o usuário traçasse…

Geotagged event triggers
Allow the user to define an event such as playing one of your own sounds, display one of your own photos or play a music track at or near specific places. Example uses - get onto a fast stretch of road and your music changes, and changes back when you get into town again. Get a mile from a toll booth and a note appears telling you how much money to have ready. Drive near a grocer and your recording says "don't forget to get the eggs". Go past a tourist attraction and a recording tells you about it. You…
