  1. Unblock phone sleeping when idle or parking - to preserve battery

    It happened to me several times and I find it very annoying.
    When I park the car waiting for someone out if I leave phone in the car when I reach my destination and I forget to turn it off, Waze will prevent the screen from turning off and will drain out my battery quickly.
    My suggestion is that I'd Waze detects that I'm parking or not driving for over a minute or so, it should automatically suspend the navigation activity and enable screen shutdown and sleep until user starts driving again.

  2. Emergency Location Button

    I recently moved 900 miles to a new state. In case of an emergency I would like to know the closest intersection and/or coordinates of the road I'm on in order to report my location to 911, etc. I used to have a standalone GPS unit that had an emergency button to tap which provided these details I'm suggesting.

  3. Roadkill icon replacement

    Please replace the roadkill icon with something else. It looks like a poor little hedgehog and it makes me sad. :(

  4. The police force needs to be more diverse in race and sex.

    An all white male police force speaks of things noone wants to be saying. Make that feature more realistically represented. Even if you made all cops appear as frogs in hats it would make more sense than showing a force that is all white and male. At the very least get rid if the faces use a car icon in its place.

  5. Reporting - less then optimal user interface design

    When reporting about something like hazard, traphic or an accident you get a list of options each in a circle.
    However, reporting is mostly done while driving :-( and
    thus shoul be designed for easy reporting.
    The most frequently used options (traphic, police, hazard) are placed on the top of the list but it will be best to place them next to the original reporting button at the bottom for easier reporting.

  6. Route color change after we past it

    As we all know, from route planning to until we get to the target, the track color is the same (purple by default).
    The problem is that the section we past and the section we are going to is in the same color.
    Since the software can identify the direction of motion, I suggest that every section of the planned route that we passed will return to normal color of the map or will fade to make a Separation from the section which you are traveling to.
    If you navigate while watching briefly on the map from time to time,…

  7. toll tag intelligence

    It would be huge if client could know if I have a toll tag and where toll tag only roads exist. Routing me over a toll tag only road (must have a toll tag to traverse) is not helpful. It would be great if Waze stored which toll tags I have and ask if it should route me over a toll tag only road when I'm in another area.

  9. Color code car icon by distance

    When Waze zooms in & out, the car icon stays the same size. Why not color code the car icon, green for when you are far away, yellow when you are close & need to change lanes for a turn/exit, red when you are within a quarter mile.

  13. Snow removal equipment

    I was in Maryland during the recent blizzard. I was able to make the return drive to Pittsburgh on Monday. The roads where clear, however road crews were doing snow removal on the shoulders, left and right. I found during my drive the crews were often on turns and had I had no warning to be able to change lanes for safe distance.

    That's when I thought of a SNOW PLOW notification. It would include a left or right choice and on road or shoulder choice. Moving or stationary would be a choice too, but might be a bit much…

  14. Color code road hazard and police reports etc to show how long ago they were reported

    Instead of having to click on the police icon to see how long ago it was reported color code the icons.
    Green = reported within last 10 minutes
    Yellow = reported within last 10-20 minutes
    Red = reported over 20 minutes ago
