Show favorites on map
In other gps devices, your favorites show up on the map. For example if you have a friends house saved and you drive by you'll be able to see it on the map. So I think it would be nice to have your favorites show on the map all the time or at least have an option to turn on a feature like this.

Lembrete para Desligar faróis ao sair da rodovia
Assim como o Waze avisa sobre ligar os faróis ao entrar numa rodovia, ele deveria avisar para DESLIGAR os faróis ao sair da rodovia.
O meu carro assim como dezenas de outros NÃO avisa ao motorista que o farol está ligado ao descer do carro.
No estacionamento da empresa onde eu trabalho (cerca de 400) carros, TODOS os dias eu vejo pelo menos 4 carros com faróis ligados (é que um dos caminhos para se chegar na empresa é via rodovia).
Eu mesmo em 6 meses já fiquei sem bateria 9x.
Se o Waze tivesse o lembrete de desligar os…1 voteCurrently this is not on the roadmap.
As a workaround, you can use ‘Child reminder’ functionality for this purpose – just create a custom message for this reminder, so instead of telling you to check your kids, Waze would remind you to turn off the headlights when you drive to destination.

Scenic Route
Many of us love weekend road trips. Occasionally it's nice to take the scenic route instead of the fastest.

Categorizing Favorites
With my Garmin, I can quickly look at my favorites list relative to my current location. ADVANTAGE: I'm hungry.....it tells me where my favorite restaurants and coffee shops are and how close. Makes it easy to return there when i'm in the area.
UPGRADE: Ability to share your favorites list with a friend, so that they can choose a place and navigate there as well!

As you probably know, some of the voices we feature are promotional, meaning they are only available for a limited time.
We offer special voices for holidays, events, and just for fun.
You can use these for the length of the promotion. When the promotion ends, your voice will reset to the default and the voice will no longer appear in the Sound menu.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!

Other side
What happened to other side accident report?
9 votesThank you for your suggestion!
This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being. Adding more and more options to reporting, especially for less popular types of reports such as other side which will also require another window/card, is not something we are aiming for at the moment. Please be aware that other side reporting is already available by voice using the Google Assistant! We believe investing in voice can create essentially a better and more scalable experience and we hope to bring it to more languages soon.

Seria muy util si pudieramos organizar los destinos favoritos en carpetas (ej. familia, amigos, clientes,etc.)
Seria muy util si pudieramos organizar los destinos favoritos en carpetas (ej. familia, amigos, clientes,etc.) y a su vez dentro de las carpetas nos muestre los destinos del mas cercano al mas lejano de esa forma es mas facil crear una ruta, para los que trabajamos con Waze seria genial, gracias.

Add a gate/restricted option for gated communities/parks/highways and time of travel restrictions
There are some roads that you can only travel on if you have permission, such as a private road that requires a gate code or key. There are other public roads that are only passable at certain times of the year (e.g. Hwy 120 in Yosemite due to snow conditions).
That private road may still be open to the general public during certain hours of the day. As well that public road may only be open during certain seasons. As well someone else pointed out that certain roads have turns restricted based on time of the day.
It seems like…

Translucent screen Icons to prevent Screen Burn/Ghosting
My SGS II has slight screen burn from the lower icons in the corners.
Is it possible to make the icons darker or slight translucent to prevent screen burn/ghosting, Maybe it is a good idea to make this for every static object within the waze screen.68 votesThank you for your suggestion!
The Report button was designed to be noticed while blending in and it’s important to keep it as is.
However, we will revisit this idea when working on Dark mode, in the future. Furthermore, since this is a physical issue that OLED phones suffer from in different apps, we recommend to use Battery Saver mode to allow your display some rest from bright colors that might lead to this dysfunction.

The WAZE ads for nearby restaurants are very discombobulating, when they appear on the screen while I am trying to find my destination. Better to charge people for this service than to interrupt them while trying to get to their destination. I will stop recommending WAZE after years of touting it.
