Please find a way without adjusting my phone, android, to increase the font on the turn directions in the black box in the top left corner.
Make the street names that appear right below the car icon larger in addition to the turn-by-turn directions in the black box in the top left corner. Also if I'm going somewhere and I want to search for a new location it shouldn't come up with no results it should ask if I want to cancel the current route and

מניעת שכחת ילד ברכב
פיצ'ר "מצב ילד" - מניעה אקטיבית של שכחת ילדים (ללא מטרת רווח)
הצורך: התזכורת הנוכחית היא פסיבית וגורמת ל"עיוורון התראות".
הפתרון:
1. בתחילת נסיעה: הוספת מתג מהיר "יש ילד ברכב?" (יופיע חכם לפי שעות הגן/בית ספר).
2. בסיום נסיעה: האפליקציה תדרוש פעולה פיזית (אישור בסליידר) כדי לוודא שהרכב נסרק, ולא תסתפק בהודעה שנעלמת.
3. רשת ביטחון: התראה קולנית חריגה אם הנהג התרחק מהרכב מבלי שביצע את האישור.השורה התחתונה: הופכים את Waze מצופה מהצד לשותפה אקטיבית בהצלת חיים, באפס עלות חומרה למשתמש.

Fuel Stop Planning Based on Distance
Hello Waze Team,
I would like to suggest a feature that would greatly improve route planning, especially for users with vehicles that have limited range.
When planning a route, it would be very helpful to have an option to automatically include fuel stops at a specified distance interval (for example, every 150–200 km). As a motorcycle rider, my fuel range is limited, and planning refueling stops manually can be inconvenient and sometimes unsafe if I misjudge distances.
An option where users could:
set a preferred fuel range (e.g., 150 km),
and have Waze automatically suggest or insert fuel stations along…1 vote -
Avoid tunnels
I have a suggestion regarding route calculation. I suffer from claustrophobia and a fear of tunnels and I think I'm not the only one with this, so I’d like to see a button in Waze that you can click to avoid tunnels, just like the buttons for avoiding ferries or toll roads. With this, I’d like to exclude tunnels longer than 500 meters from the route when you turn it on. I hope this will help solve the problem of being afraid to hit the road when you know there are a lot of tunnels on the route. Hopefully, I’m…

Create a Vehicle-Aware Routing System for Waze
The Waze Team should consider incorporating a feature that can detect a user’s vehicle and its specifications, such as its height and weight, and to use that data when generating routes. Incidents such as over-height trucks striking low bridges, overweight vehicles damaging roads, and large trucks being directed into streets that are too narrow could be significantly prevented through this vehicle-aware routing. Implementing this would be a significant step towards leveraging emerging technologies to improve user experience and safety in a way that other GPS systems currently fail to account for.

Temporary Route Avoidance Settings (Per-Trip Only Option)
Suggestion:
I’d like to suggest adding the ability to apply route avoidance settings (such as avoiding highways, tolls, or ferries) for a single trip only, rather than changing global navigation preferences.
Currently, when a user enables options like “avoid highways,” the setting remains active for all future routes until it is manually turned off. This can lead to confusion or unintended routing on subsequent trips if the user forgets to revert the setting.
A more flexible approach would be to allow users to select avoidance options specifically for the current trip during route setup. Once the trip is complete, the…

Fix “add a stop”
This isn’t a new idea, just a quality of life update that needs to happen. Please fix the add a stop search feature that will not just look for any option fitting the search description but the closest on the route and display or notify how much time is added to the trip. If I am in a new area and I am looking for a particular food stop or something, say srarbucks for this example, every stratbucks in the usa comes up in the search but they aren’t sorted by the closest on the route but rather anything any…

Auto start disable/timeout setting
Massively annoying when I enter a destination and the overview screen doesn’t give me chance to pick the preferred route before auto starting. A long distance navigation, 5 seconds isn’t enough time to properly review and allow selection of the route I want to take. Add an option in settings to disable auto route start altogether and also for those than want it on (since we can’t all have it the way we want) a setting to specify auto start timer please

הצגת משך הנסיעה עבור עצירה
כשמנווטים ליעד רואים מידע על שעת ההגעה וגם כמה זמן הנסיעה
אבל כשמוסיפים עצירה רואים רק את זמן הנסיעה לנקודה הראשונה אבל לא את זמן הנסיעה מהעצירה ליעד. תוכלו להוסיף?במקום שאני כל פעם אעשה מיליון חישובים להסיק מה משך הנסיעה הכולל

Asheville Regional Airport
For travelers planning a trip to the stunning Blue Ridge Mountains or the vibrant arts scene of Asheville, North Carolina, understanding which carriers operate at the local airport is the first step in a seamless journey. The search for Asheville Regional Airport reveals an encouraging discovery: Asheville Regional Airport is served by a robust and diverse lineup of six major airlines, connecting this growing city to the rest of the United States and, through major hubs, the world. AVL consistently ranks among the fastest-growing airports in the country and stands as the third busiest airport in North Carolina, having served…

Restore real-time route tracking
Waze used to provide highly accurate real-time traffic updates. I am requesting that this functionality be restored. Currently, the app seems to calculate travel time based on long-term historical statistics, which might be effective in massive megacities, but in a city of half a million people, the routing is consistently inaccurate.
Last week was a school holiday. Today, the app is clearly relying on statistics from that holiday period rather than the actual real-time traffic conditions. Due to these flawed formulas, a commute that should have taken 35 minutes ended up taking over an hour. Please prioritize real-time data over…1 vote -
Ferramenta de Medição de Trecho (Ponto A ao B) em Rota Ativa
Título da Sugestão:
Ferramenta de Medição de Trecho (Ponto A ao B) em Rota Ativa
Descrição:
Objetivo: Permitir que o usuário meça a distância exata entre dois pontos específicos dentro de uma rota já traçada, sem a necessidade de configurar "Paradas" ou alterar o destino final.
Como funcionaria:
Com a navegação ativa, o usuário daria um toque longo no mapa para definir o Ponto Inicial (A).
Um segundo toque longo definiria o Ponto Final (B).
O Waze exibiria flutuante na tela a distância total (km/m) apenas desse intervalo selecionado.
Benefício: Facilita o cálculo de distâncias para motoristas profissionais e logística,…1 vote -

Route options on Car Play
When connected to car play, I cannot choose a route, Waze does it for me. Sometimes it chooses routes I would not choose. Either poor areas of a city, poor roads, lots of side streets, toll roads, etc. I’d like to choose my route from at least 2 or 3 options vs none. Thank you.

Setting for toll road suggestion
Have a setting in the app, where you can request a minimum time savings before the app gives you toll road suggestions. For example, only provide toll road options. If the time savings is 10 minutes or more. I do not need toll options when it’s only going to save me three minutes.

"Predictive" traffic information
Would it be possible for the app to have a switch allowing the users to see "predicted ETA" based on traffic data for the route from previous days/weekdays?
For example, I know for sure that a particular segment of a journey will get jammed at about 6:55 - 7:05. However, when starting the 30min journey at 6:40, this particular segment is still "free of traffic" based on live info, and so Waze shows me the route as the fastest, despite the fact that within 15 min this segment will get jammed and the "fastest" route will turn into the slowest.

Horse
I’d like an option to identify preferred routes based on vehicle size/towing. Some routes are quicker for a car as they can navigate bends and turns quickly however when driving with a horse float on or a large SUV with a caravan these routes are not conducive and slow others down.
