  2. Create a "soft warning" for known situations.

    For example: A location where speed traps are consistently reported would have a warning in a radius such as "speed traps have been reported here." The color of the warning could fade from red to orange as reports decline or vice versa. There's one street I travel where there's a cop shooting radar 80% of the time. There could be a warning about that regardless of if a Wazer had been through recently.

  3. The Catalan voice is not good enough

    It is great to have Catalan as an option in the iPhone client (thanks!!) but the voice used is not good, as it mispronounces some sounds. The voice has a strong Spanish accent.

  5. Trim Screen clutter

    Try to have all the numerical info set into expandable tabs on the left or right. Allow option for numerical info rather than white letters on black background to have the black be semi-transparent.

  9. option for automatic bug reporting

    When waze displays a message that it has encountered a bug and asks me if I would like to send it the timer is very short and I often cant tap OK in time while driving.

    It would be great if there was a setting that allowed the user to select "always send bug/error reports"

  12. Make lock button switch off the screen without locking it

    It would be great if switching on/off the screen could be realized by the lock button with no need to unlock the screen. Code:

    KeyguardLock kgLock;

    public void onCreate() {
    KeyguardManager kgm = (KeyguardManager) getSystemService(Activity.KEYGUARD_SERVICE);
    kgLock = kgm.newKeyguardLock(TAG);
    kgLock.disableKeyguard();
    }

    @Override
    protected void onDestroy() {
        kgLock.reenableKeyguard();
        super.onDestroy();
    }
    
    @Override
    protected void onPause() {
        super.onPause();
        kgLock.reenableKeyguard();      
    }
    
    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        kgLock.disableKeyguard();
    }

  15. Display direction of new road (e.g. I-10 *West*)

    Most of the time I get messed up using Waze is when I encounter a roadway or freeway turn where there may be immediate opportunity to go either way, e.g. I-10 East or I-10 West, or TriCity Parkway North vs. TriCity Parkway South. The display shows only "I-10" or "TriCity Parkway".

  16. Add traffic light and bus stop option for the "Are you in traffic?" prompts.

    Often times the slowdowns detected are due to traffic lights or bus stops.

  17. Event alerts-"On Route" as a default

    I am tired of seeing like 22 event alerts (cops, traffic, etc.) while driving my inputed route. when I hit the red exclamation mark it takes me to them and then I can select "On Route" to find out which one's only apply to the way I'm going...why not make the "On Route" button the default instead of "Around Me"???

  18. Display photo from user report in popup

    In the client, reports can have photos attached, e.g. a photo of the accident or roadworks site can be attached to the report. The photo is displayed on the waze website in the live map.

    However, when other phone clients receive the road report, the photo is hidden and hard to display.

    This is a request to display the photo attached to the report maximized on screen for 5-10 seconds (together with a "report abuse" button) for hands-free operation of the client.

  19. When searching for a location or place, should have the option to view the address instead of

    Would be a nice idea to show the address when searching for a location, instead going to the "show on map" each time to view where the location is...very annoying!
