Add speed limit near the camera icon
Since all cameras have static speed limit, it would be great to extend camera icon to contain information about speed limit(like current icon + 50/70/110 or another number). This will help driver to understand limit much earlier before camera and correctly choose speed without fast braking, so this will improve safety on roads

Rotate vehicle direction of travel when plotting journey
Should be able to change direction of travel when plotting route. As a taxi driver I am often asked to quote a journey however waze assumes which way I am facing when plotting the route and this can sometimes add up to 2 miles to a journey. I would like to be able to press on the car icon and rotate it through 180 degrees to face the direction I want so it gives an accurate mileage figure
1 voteThank you for this suggestion.
Setting the car’s direction when starting the app and navigation is a known matter which will be addressed in the future.
There are many complexities in location tracking which cause this issue and hold us from providing a solution.
It’s currently on the back burner, but definitely a part of the backlog. -
Mulheres / Women
Olá!
Gostei muito da ideia de vocês, com relação ao "Waze Carpool", porém vejo uma situação da qual muitas mulheres ficam incomodadas pela falta de segurança e diversas vezes passo por lugares onde têm ponto de ônibus em que a mulher está sozinha e em alguns casos uma mulher e um ou mais homens, sendo que a mulher fica afastada com receio de algo com relação a este ou o grupo de homens.
Fui procurar outros aplicativos que trabalham com caronas e até encontrei outro já com disponibilidade de carona apenas com mulheres, tanto a motorista como as passageiras, então…2 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Is it possible to make waze to where you can put in multiple addresses and it will create the best /fastest route to 3 or 4 addresses?
Is it possible to make waze to where you can put in multiple addresses and it will create the best /fastest route to 3 or 4 addresses? I'm a realtor and have to take my clients from one address to another, it would be easier to be able to put in multiple addresses and have waze create the best route from one to another. Thank you
3 votesThank you for this suggestion.
This idea has been being discussed for a while and recognized as an important user request.
We hear the community’s voice and would like to share that while we can’t currently commit to a timeline, we do have plans to create a way to add more than one stop pre-drive.

Limit WAZE ads when turns are coming up
In an unfamiliar area with many turns, WAZE ads prevent you from seeing where you're supposed to turn, particularly on interstate interchanges where lane selection is important. I keep having to swipe the ad off the map when I should be paying attention to getting into the proper lane. The current ad display is actually unsafe.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! We try to make our ads as useful as possible to Wazers. An ad-free version is not planned for the near future.

PLEASE PAUSE FOR BREAK
Please give the app a "PAUSE" feature, so that we can stop for gas or food without loosing our route. It would be great if it continued to check the traffic in case something happened while you were taking a break.

We are currently not planning on adding resting alerts or reminders.

Add more than one stop
Adding more than one stop would be nice to have a nice overlook of what my route would look like

Drive plus walk
Add option to find quickest route with additional walking. Many times waze navigates to exact location without taking into account faster route to near by location. I personally would rather walk an additional 100 meters to avoid sitting in traffic. This is especially warranted when using a taxi who relies on waze and additional cost is influenced by route. This feature can be an added route option without interfering with the basic platform most users prefer.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion!
Waze can currently direct your partial walking route when it’s a part of a drive or carpool.
We are currently not planning on adding walking mode for complete routes.

Option to keep "battery saver" always on
Waze has this new "battery saver" feature that dims the screen when there is a long way until the next turn/action. As I understand, currently this feature only kicks in when the battery level is low (<25%). Or you can manually turn it on for a current trip, but it revert to the default behaviour next time you start Waze.
I suggest to add an option to keep it ALWAYS on. Because I would like to use it all the time... Even if the battery level is not low, I'd like to save it for the rest of the day.…

Voices
Dear developers, please keep the themed or promotional voices available! The work has already been done and it has already been approved by the users so do not delete the files that we have downloaded already and we like it!
3 votesThank you for your suggestion!
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!

Need the ability to note that some roads are private and closed to the public.
I live on a single lane, private road that is very dangerous. Unfortunately, Waze directs drivers to use my road when there is traffic backed up on the state highway that is adjacent to my road. I would like this road to be noted as "closed to public" (i.e. non-authorized traffic) on the Waze live map.

Expand Police Visibility Function
Expand the Police Visibility to include "In Traffic" and "In Traffic Other Side". It is frustrating to be 'notified' that there is police ahead only to see that they in traffic, probably going home for the day.
1 voteThank 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.

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.
