  1. Ability to declare a suggested route bad

    Sometimes Waze suggests routes that are so bad as to be cringe worthy. It would be nice to to be able to report them for review.

  2. Abbreviations

    use abbreviations for hazzards B (breakdown recovery), T (Tire Debris) R (Road works) F (Fog) etc
    Also for Police Alert, in MA police are required for road works so it is not a speed trap

  3. Add a softkey to take screenshot

    In Android you have to simultaneously press [Low Volume] + [Power] in order to take a screenshot.
    If you are driving this is not possible and even if you are a passenger it is not practical.
    It would be great a soft-key was created in the map (like the zoom commands).

  4. Road hazards

    Have the option to dismiss users postings. Say if a disabled car is no longer there. Or if a cop isnt there or theres no longer traffic issues jams ect. Add a buttong to be able to dismiss any and all. I know it pops up for disabled cars once in a while. But make it for all things posted. Cause i notice some people post things just to get points that are not even there.

  7. Make a "Map Editor" search mode on client

    For area managers and other people who are into editting the map, make a search option that will help route them to a "map problem area" or to an area they marked for themselves from the map editor, and help them report to themselves what needs to be fixed. Then when they get back to their desktops, they can see what they recorded and make the appropriate fixes.

  8. 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.

  9. Second warning for upcoming hazard

    In addition to the 2000ft warning of a hazard, add a 500ft chime. I forget to confirm hazard is still there

  11. -- Points System limited to regional extension--

    -- Points System limited to regional extension-- It is not fair to give the same amount of points to people living in Russia and, for example, Dominican Republic. We all know that you get the most of points from map editing, and people living in bigger countries get a regional advantage. I have been to Dominican Republic and there are not enough things to edit, but if you go to Russia... hurrah!. same thing when you think of China and Japan. I think you get the idea, there should be a calculation factor based on how extensive a country is.

    Please update the iPhone user manual in the wiki, it doesn't resemble the current shipping app at all.

  19. want to create link on website, that make Waze destination point by clicking on it (using smartphone browser)

    Invent URN format like waze:// and register waze to handle it. Then will be possible to create Waze destinations on websites to easy navigate.
    Same URN can be used as easy destination sharing with friends.

  20. Plugins!

    Instead of competing against other products and services, why not allow them to be PART OF (feed info into) Waze? Plugins, if you will.

    Case in point: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOyhnwA6MQo

    Escort Live is a social driving program for people who use Passport Radars. Wouldn't it make more sense for everyone ("them" because they'd be able to enjoy Waze and its massive user database, and "us" because we'd get the real-time radar info?) if Escort Live was available inside Waze?

    Waze is great because it's so clean, so I understand not wanting to have other data services "clutter up" the experience, so perhaps…
