support alternative partitions: EXT, UDF (motivate SD Alliance policy change)
The risk of sdio / Sdcard corruption radically increases with respect to capacity (>16gigs).
SD association foolishly continues to mandate fat32 instead of defaulting/allowing EXT2 - EXT4 or newer.
relying on binary mysticism instead of publishing formatting parameters for command line
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
Yes, many leveling algorithms CURRENTLY geared for FAT32 but it would be mind numbingly simple to add both UDF- and EXT capacity to support reformatting/repartitioning ... or support for various file systems / volumes.
Take a moment to request support for at least both UDF- and EXT

As all iPhone users know, each time you make a call or use the maps application, and you exit the application to go see something else, the iOS will display on the top of the screen a colored bar showing that the process on the app you exited is still going; and by just touching that part of the screen it will return back to that app to whatever is doing (calling, following a route, etc) this is a helpful suggestion because while driving you want to have your eyes on the road and not on your phone trying to…

Make https://world.waze.com/livemap/ to show all Wazers that are online.
It would be great to see how many Wazers there really are in your country/city

Please remove the new popup notifications about the eta changing. I have missed turnings twice lately due to this because it obscures the map.

Icons as option
iPhone app: can you please give an option to hide other people icon but I still want to get their data for road condition and warning. Some times there are always too many icons on freeway and its preventing to see road condition and other warnings! So it would be cool option to show or hide others

Use BIG red and green arrows to correct turn restrictions right away when you report a map issue.
Problem now:
You report incorrect turn restrictions in your app, someone will find it in the web editor and blind changes them mostly based on fuzzy or even no notes.Idea
You mark a turn restriction map issue in your app. A simplified junction pops up with BIG red and green turn restrictions for your current view/street. You can toggle the arrows by tapping them allowing or disallowing turns.
Press save and forget. The changes will be kept locally in the client in order to avoid being routed the wrong repeatedly until the next map update.2 votes -

Google Now (Jelly Bean) integration
Right now I can fire off navigation from Google Now to Google Maps. Waze is offered as an app to do this, but does not accept the external input of the destination to Navigate to.

Allow push notifications for hazards or police. I tend to lock my phone by habit and I don't find out about them until it's too late.

add additional report radius
5 miles it's often to small for decisions but 25 to far on longer local journeys, such as work. Adding a ten mile radius option and maybe increasing in multiples of ten would work better than the current format

Need a practice mode. Why? Read on...
After using it for couple of months, I still trying to get used to using it.
One thing I wish it have is a practice mode where we can play around with it and make traffic reports.
Yes, I know there are online instructions on how to use Waze.
Why?
Some people like me like to play around with it. If we have a chance to play around with it, we can get used to using it.
That way, when we drive, we already know what we are doing.
As it is now, I sometimes have to take my eyes…

Monitize via radio
Waze should look to monetize by partnering with radio stations for up to date traffic reports, get someone to sponsor the report (like they do with today’s helicopter based reports) and split the fee. Would be more profitable for both and save on the carbon footprint of flying multiple helicopters over every city.

Show direction that other wazers are travelling on the navigation map
When viewing the navigation map, what if you showed a little arrow indicating the direction that the other wazers on the map are traveling? I can't tell if the wazer ahead of me is traveling the same direction as me and I am just catching up to them or they are on the other side of the road driving towards me. You could put a little black direction arrow in their icon.
