Routex Fuel and Charge card support
Many car leasings in Germany are supported by Routex PB + ARAL fuel and charge card. Routex is spanning on a network of charging providers beyond just BP and Aral, but I have not found a list that allows me to enter these into the charging provider list. Any way you could add Routex to your menu of charging points? That would help many users in at least Germany and I also think Austria, if I am not mistaken. Thank you for considering it.

multistop saved routes
Every weekday morning I drop my daughter off at school on my way to work. I set my work address in waze first and then "add a stop" and put in my daughter's school. It would be nice to have an option to set saved route with multiple stops so that I could select it each morning in one step.

Cheapest route (including the cost for my time)
Sometimes I want to take the fastest route possible, but most times I want to take the cheapest route. By cheapest route, I mean one that includes a cost for my time as well as fuel, depreciation, and tolls.
I live in a part of Austin where the fastest route is often a highway that goes the long way around, but there is a slightly slower route that is direct. I'm willing to take 2 more minutes to drive if it saves 7 miles on my car. The US govt. puts the price of a mile on a car at…

Stop giving me only OK to select new route, need a NO option
Stop giving me only OK to select new route, Give me a NO option to leave route as is.
Sometimes the original route is the better route or I have a route I want to use and do not want to change it.
Waze gives only one option and that is to say OK. We need a NO button as well to use.1 vote -

similar eta
Similar ETA can't be previewed before deciding which route actually is faster or works for me. I would like to be able to see if I want to take the similar eta suggested i.e if it's less/more km, traffic, etc. (like google maps)

Distracted driver risk score route recommendation. Waze always picks the shortest route based on time
I routinely will disregard the Waze route recommendation and will take less traveled roads because I hate to have to rely on other drivers being always aware of their surroundings. I want Waze to recommend the less stressful route as an option. I trust my driving but I stress out with other drivers and will take side streets and leave the highway just to have a "safer" drive. I try to avoid backups on freeways as this contributes to the potential accident due to distracted drivers.

Add Pause Button to Route Guidance
I use Waze a lot for local driving and frequently take small diversions to convenience stores or maybe swing by another store or a friend's house a few blocks away that is not on the original route.
I find it very hard to believe that no one has ever added a Pause button to route guidance.
I have seen it rationalized that it would be distracting while you're driving.
I would submit that the app continuing to recalculate a new route while you are diverting is ever more distracting. Especially, if you decide to stop the route because the continual…

Big rig route options
I work for our local FD. Over many years there have been numerous big rig accidents on heidi circle in scott Louisiana. They are taken that route via GPS to a particular location and the turn down there is impossible for big rigs and they always slide into the ditches and flip. A route option for big rigs would be great so it prevents further numerous issues. There were 2 incidents there yesterday alone! Some of these can potentially carry hazardous materials making the situation even more dangerous!

SafeRoute – A safer pedestrian routing mode based on community input
As everyday users, we develop a deep, almost instinctive understanding of our cities. We know which streets feel safe, which corners we prefer to avoid, and which areas become uncomfortable after a certain hour. Waze already offers an excellent model of community-driven navigation by allowing users to report accidents, hazards, and police presence. Extending this collaborative approach to pedestrian mobility could significantly improve people’s sense of safety during their daily walks.
SafeRoute is a proposal for a new pedestrian option that would suggest routes which are better lit, more populated, or generally perceived as safer, while avoiding places that the…

Travel planning
I would like to plan a route with an overnight stop, or at least figure out the halfway point on a route. Find distance between cities. Also, option to find gas, food, and rest stops along the way.

Include traffic signal count on route summary.
For “short” routes or re-routes, include count of traffic signals. During peak periods, a longer route may be preferable with less signals, which have the potential for delay if even no delay exists at the time of route calculation. The definition of short is arbitrary and could be decided by the devs based on utility vs performance.

Journey time <> motorway preference setting rather than avoid/use toggle
When motorbiking it’s often frustrating to be stuck on a motorway when the non-motorway alternative (for a large portion of the route) is equal or similar time.
It would be great to have an option to better blend the route. I.e a preference to non-motorway unless it makes sense for part of the route to be completed on motorway to make progress rather than the strict on/off toggle.

Average Speed Cameras - NZ
New Zealand NZTA is introducing Average Speed Cameras which will detect your average speed over a long distance.
Can we implement a feature that will not only show you the start and finish point of the speed trap, but also your average speed whilst you’re within it to ensure you aren’t fined.
Thanks team!

Stop auto re-routing to save nominal time.
Perhaps the greatest problem with Waze is when the inconvenience of taking a nonstandard route is not proportional to the time savings the new route provides. All too often I’m taken on an insane route in comparison to the normal one just to save two minutes.
I would like to prevent Waze from automatically rerouting (or suggesting an alternative “best route”) unless the new route saves 10 minutes of the total “mainstream” route time.
Perhaps people could choose different thresholds for reroutes.
I hate it when all of a sudden I’m rerouted in traffic on the highway to take the…

Add favorites to a route
When I go on long trips, I enjoy stopping at rest areas, but I have no clue where they are or when they'll appear. I've ended up at a sketchy gas station, only to discover a rest area just 2 miles ahead. I also like pulling over at specific restaurant chains, but again, I don't know their locations. It would be awesome to add favorites to a route so the app tracks the distance to the nearest Chick-fil-A or Buc-ee's, then resets after you pass it to show the next one. This feature would be a game-changer.
