For the Love of Waze: A Real Driver's Plea to Stop the Trolls
I'm writing to you as someone who truly loves what Waze is supposed to be: a community of drivers helping each other out. But that spirit is dying, and it's because you're letting a handful of trolls ruin it for everyone else.
We've all seen it: phantom police cars that vanish into thin air, imaginary traffic jams on empty roads, and the completely absurd "icy road" warnings during a summer heatwave. It’s gone from being a funny quirk to a serious problem. It’s not just annoying anymore; it’s making us lose trust in the app we once relied on.

International Land Border Wait Time Predictions
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest a feature enhancement that could significantly improve the accuracy of ETA predictions for routes involving international land borders, such as those between the USA and Canada or the USA and Mexico.
Current Situation:
At present, it appears that Waze calculates ETA for routes involving international land borders based on general traffic data. This approach treats the border crossing as a regular segment of the journey, comparing travel times between points A and B without considering the unique delays associated with border crossings.Proposed Enhancement:
To provide more accurate ETAs and better routing…40 votes -

Give a user a notice when Waze is set to avoid tolls. Many times I have been on back roads wondering when I will get to a highway.
Give a user a notice when Waze is set to avoid tolls. Many times I have been on back roads wondering when I will get to a highway and come to realize that the option to "Avoid Tolls" is on.
Solution:
When the trip starts, let the user know what option is set.
Or have the toll status displayed on the screen "Toll Roads" / "Avoid Toll Roads". Also allow the user to choose if the status is to be displayed or not.2 votes -
CarPlay voice reporting optional
Please make voice reporting optional in CarPlay. I’m seeing significantly less reporting since this feature was installed. Plus, I get an error every time press the button and it won’t let me use voice if I wanted to.

Please get rid of new “listening” landing page
Please get rid of the new “listening” landing page, in CarPlay, that you must click through to report an issue on the road. It’s annoying and unsafe because it adds yet another button press while driving and it pauses the audio you’re listening to.

Suggestion: Speed Limit Change Preview Icon (Similar to Camera Alerts)
I really appreciate the feature where Waze shows a small speed limit icon at the start of a road where the speed limit changes. For example, if I’m currently driving on a 60mph road and will be entering a 30mph zone in 1 mile, Waze shows me where the change begins — similar to how it displays speed camera icons.
This is incredibly helpful as it allows me to prepare in advance and gradually reduce speed, improving safety and compliance.Note this feature is already available on certain country roads, but it would be great to expand to every road…

During CarPlay integration, when viewing alternate routes, ability to tap on the route itself versus a small tedious list to filter through
When integrated with CarPlay and viewing alternate routes, when selecting an alternate route, the ability to tap on the route itself to select versus having to choose from a small list. As another user suggested showing traffic to alternate routes would be also helpful.

Customized alert distances
Since the recent release of changing the alert to 0.2 miles, makes police alerts a worthless feature because at highway speeds, at that distance, it's already too late. In fact, anything over 25mph would be too late at that point. How about a setting that allows the user to set that distance in the range 0.2 to 1 mile to make it more practical or just revert to the 0.5-mile default that was present before the latest release!

Create a Partner Data Feed for GIS-based Street Sign Inventory
Many municipalities are importing/moving their street sign inventory into their GIS system. Since many Waze map attributes are based on visible street signs (speed limits, one-way streets, turn restrictions, school zones, street names, etc.), it makes sense to allow municipalities to upload their sign locations and have some koi-fish-style validation of those signs against the existing Waze attributes.
For the initial upload, where signs differ from the Waze attribute, Map Issues or Map Suggestions could be created to have WME editors verify the differences and make any necessary corrections.
On an ongoing basis, as new signs are posted and the…

Potholes are problems on the roads. But long stretches of pothole-ridden sections are also an issue.
Potholes are problems on the roads. But there is something even more annoying, which is larger sections of the road that are completely holed or damaged. The suggestion is to create a new type of alert that is more lasting. Something saying "Damaged section ahead." Perhaps many countries do not suffer from this, but here in Brazil, whether in small towns or capitals, this is extremely common.

Missing Pet/Animal at Large
I am a volunteer with a pet search & rescue non-profit. It would be great to have a feature where you can mark a loose pet or missing pet so as people drive by they can be notified and keep an eye out! It's not only helpful for the owners, but helpful for the driver to know there is a loose animal that can cause an accident. (Anything from a dog to cattle or horse loose)

Save route
Allow drivers to save a traveled route as a favorite to recall later. This may not be a Waze calculated route but one the driver navigated himself. Many times calculated routes may be "faster" but not better (stress in traffic, stop and go situations or the need to stay off the beaten path). Recording a path and being able to recall it is paramount in a navigation scenario.

An Option to select between Mobile and Car screen while using waze with Android Auto
When I use this app with android auto, there is no option to see the map on the mobile screen (Only navigation text is available on the mobile screen) even if I am using a different map app (Like Google Map) on the car screen.
There should be an option in this app where we can decide that the navigation map should be on the phone screen or Car display. Reason to request this feature is - In some cars the car screen is at very low level near the Gear Box and people who wish to see the navigation…2 votes -
Need for voice notifications about fixed speed limits while we get warnings about upcoming radars
Hi. It could be very helpful if Waze could notify us by voice about the speed limit fixed for the given situation while it warns us about upcoming radars. This could tremendously help the drivers to control the speed without being distracted or in cases they did not notice the speed signs. In many countries, the drivers suffer the deficit of speed signs which can be very confusing and results in payments of high fines. Thanks

A Harry Dresden voice pack
I'm a big fan of the Dresden Files books, by Jim Butcher. I have recently been enjoying the audio book versions. Most of the 17 books are available read by James Marsters.
I would really enjoy a Waze app voice pack, based on James Marsters portrayal of the Harry Dresden character. (Maybe Jim Butcher himself would be willing participate)
I'm sure other Dresden Files fans would also.
Other characters from the Dresden Files, such as Molly Carpenter and Demonreach. Would be a bonus.
I think the female voice actors for Molly vary, but I'm pretty sure J. Marsters does the…2 votes -
Scenic route mode
A scenic route option sort of how there is a avoid highway option or a avoid toll roads option. The scenic route can also be enabled with or without avoid highway options as well!
