Fade music on alerts/notifications/Turn-by-Turn
It would be really nice if Waze faded music during audio events (not pause.. pause is a little bit jerky and makes you lose the music beat)
I use my phone (Android) as a Media Center on my car, it controls the audio and video on it. I play music using it (outstanding equalizer settings and audio effects), and the fade function is really necessary so I don't keep distracting looking for corners on GPS.
Also, on my own opinion, fading looks real classy and professional.Original Google Maps' software does that fading, but I don't want to go back…

This street should not be seen as a cut-through. It's rural and people drive insane in front of the elementary school. I would like to know how to fight for my neighborhood to be taken off this app!

Change the street name display
Displaying all the street names horizontally makes the names unusable since I can’t tell what street the name applies to. In the Live Map application the printing of the names follow the street. If some people want all of the names horizontal, why not offer both options via a personal setup?

Add "Help me" button
I use Waze all the time while i drive the roads around Israel and i see people stuck on the road a lot. but i cannot always stop and assist since i am driving too fast or on the far lane when i cannot reach them. this "help me" button will pop up (like any other report) and ask for help: maybe a person needs a jump, or a ride to somewhere, or help changing a tire. the respondent will have an "on my way" button to come and help that person.

Create a way for people to contact support. No way to receive tech assistance
I can't sign on my app, phone reset and it won't email my password to me just keeps saying email not sent. why isn't there a rep who can reset it for me?

New Category: Bottleneck
I often see construction zone or potholes noted on the map while driving on a major highway that have NO evidence of either being in place.
However, most of these appear to mark bottlenecks, where traffic often slows down.
I would suggest the addition of a "Bottleneck" category that could more usefully be used for those spots.
I assume those sites have "battling" Wazers, those who Thumbs up and those that Thumbs down. For spots with frequent up vs. down for a site, they could potentially be marked as a bottleneck.

Question: How are routes placed in order from top to bottom? I ask as I did not have time to think of checking routes this past Friday trave
Question: How are routes placed in order from top to bottom? I ask as I did not have time to think of checking routes this past Friday traveling from Moncks Corner, SC to Greenville, SC. I've used WAZE since 2013, including covering nine thousand miles before returning home to the Charleston, SC area. I've chosen from the optional routes in the past but, to me, the top route was usually the best. The one I was on Friday may have been considered as that however the rental car charging ports for my smartphone were not working and there I was…

Adding addresses needs to be user friendly
When adding an address to "Favorites" it's almost impossible. Once you type in the address, there is not "Add" button only "Back and "Close". I tried to follow the instructions it says to touch to add and I add the address and nothing happens. Impossible to add "Home" or "Work". Frustrated.

navigation waypoints
Only mapquest currently features navigation waypoints.
On a journey from locationA to locationZ one might want to pre-plan gas fill up locations, or additional points of interest. These are waypoints, or places to stop along the way.
LocationA to locationB to locationC ... to locationZ
To accomplish this now in Waze is a bit tedious
locationA to locationB
locationB to locationC
locationC to locationZOne ought be able to enter all the locations and either specify the order of the waypoints OR allow waze to optimize some- or…

Photos of location
Hi my name is Joseph I'm from SanFrancisco Ca, I'm a father and student in the Bay Area. I use waze well I work driving and I notice you guys don't have a lot of photos of the location/ building / space. I was wondering if waze had someone working on that or if you needed someone to help take as many photos of building, parks, restraints, etc. I would be happy to help out if needed. I travel around the Bay Area a lot and would love to go other places to help. I always have spare time on…

Just like the title says.

Plot your chosen route by drawing it on, just like you would do with a traditional paper map.
I mostly know how to get where I'm going, except for the last 200 yds.
So, what I currently do, is to programme in a destination, then ignore the sat-nav until that last few streets.
But if I'm mid-journey (on my chosen route) and I hit a big delay or something, I have to try and read my paper map to get me a decent alternative "cross-country", then get back to actually heading towards my destination.2 votes -

Waze has serious problems! I installed it on my smartphone Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and initially worked during the first 3 or 4 Kms (experience to go home). Then, as further away (25 home Kms), failed to show the map and the navigation route. And the voice disappeared. Left to navigate!
I got home and the phone connected to the wireless network, clicked on Waze shortcut. And the smartphone blocked!
