  2. Seeing other that need assistance

    I thought it would be helpful to have an Assitance request in Waze, but I wondered if there could be a feature instead of me requesting assistance for me if it could be for someone else. Also, there was a stretch of highway where I did see someone on the other side pulled over, trying to alert for assistance. I was wondering if that could be a future feature. By the time I got close to the off-ramp to drive the other way, it already was 30 minutes, and I decided to keep going because I was hopeful that maybe…

  3. Please stop turning down music volume to play a voice prompt!

    I want to listen to voice prompts from Waze but not at the expense of hearing my music. Nothing is more annoying than to have your favorite song constantly turned all the way down, in favor of a voice prompt. Most people are capable of listening to both at the same volume level. But for those who cant, let them turn up the volume of their voice prompt... dont auto-duck our music! Its very very annoying!
    I enjoy my music, at a consistent level and am quite capable of hearing navigation voice at the same time without turning down my…

    This Master Chief voice is now available in Waze! Install the latest app version to check it out.

    Note:

    This is part of the promotional voice we offer, meaning it is only available for a limited time.

    We offer special voices for holidays, events, and just for fun.

    You can use the promotional voices for the duration 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.

  5. סימון קו הפרדה רצוף

    בכבישים בהם יש נתיב אחד וקו הפרדה רצוף יש מידי פעם קו הפרדה מקוקו שם ניתן לעקוף אך הנהג לא יודע מתי מגיע האזור בו ניתן לעקוף. אם תסמנו את המקומות האלה הנהג יוכל להתכונן ולצאת לעקיפה כמו בכביש 90 בבקעה

  7. Precisa ter na tela a opção de avisar locais com radares fixos e tambem moveis.

    Precisa ter na tela a opção de avisar locais com radares fixos e tambem moveis. Esta opção existia mas foi removida. Precisa ter. Pessoas estão reportando como Policia oculta mas isto é errado, precisa ser o report certo, até porque é errado avisar sobre policia uma vez que isso pode ajudar bandidos, enquanto que avisar sobre radar movel é perfeitamente lícito!

  8. Parking location tracking function

    When motorists reached their parking location, provide a function to allow motorists to key in where they parked their vehicle.

    When motorists are done with the errands, they can use the app to find out which car park they parked their vehicle and which floor/location it is at.

  9. לאפשר פונקציה שמונעת ניווט לתוך נתיבי תחבורה ציבורית

    בדומה לאופציה שמנטרלת ניווט לתוך נתיבי אגרה, ליצור אופציה שמונעת ניווט הכולל כניסה לנתיבי תחבורה ציבורית, בעיקר בערים הגדולות לאור העובדה שזה גורר מתן קנסות והניווט המהיר ביותר לפי האלגוריתם שלכם כולל אותם ומפנה נהגים לא מקומיים לתוכם.

    I would love to have multiple beep sound when you exceed the speed limit, different beep options would be nice for user preferences

  11. Avoiding Traffic notification

    Can you add a notification sound or announcement letting drivers know when Waze is avoiding traffic or hazards?

    The reason is that sometimes Waze will prompt you to take a route that seems to make no sense, and I'm tempted to say no. If Waze would just say something like "Take the next exit, avoiding traffic," it would be much easier to understand why.

    of Heavenly Bistro (a famous restaurant) at 3116 Oak Rd, Walnut Creek, CA 94597

  13. navigate from within the site

    Hi it would be great if we can use the website to navigate and not just through the app as occasionally I want to check the best route for one of the kids while I'm in the office.

  14. Bathroom Finder on Route

    Have an obvious button and/or a voice command to display (and when selected, route to) public bathrooms along your route. In settings, you should be able to select categories, like "rest area," "gas station or restaurant with restrooms," and distance from route (either in time or miles), etc. in order to establish a default search and display when the "show restrooms" switch is toggled.

  15. Ability to turn off "tool bars". ie. Carpool, My Waze, and Search bars

    We need a way to turn off these tool bars if not being used.
    They make this app mostly unusable, especially in landscape orientation, as they take up a large part of the screen.
    I don't carpool, i dont need the search bar on when I'm driving. Same for My Waze.
    Just a small button to access this would be fine.
    Please make a way to turn these off.

  18. Can't listen to radio and use Waze if I have bluetooth

    Please, give me a way to have my phone connected to my car's bluetooth, listen to the radio, AND hear Waze prompts through my phone's audio! Apparently you used to have a "Prefer Bluetooth" toggle that I could turn off, but it doesn't exist in the version I have. Why would you get rid of this? Now my choices are silence from Waze while I listen to the radio, dead silence in the car until I get a Waze prompt, or turn off Bluetooth completely so that Waze will play through my phone speakers.
    All I want is to be…

  19. Screen dimming or even shutdown when the vehicle stops

    Wase. Please create a screen dimming (or even shutdown) when the vehicle stops and automatically reactivate when moving again. This would be very good for nature (energy saving) and for increasing privacy and security inside the vehicle.

  20. Reporting Buttons

    Hi. I have been using Waze successfully for a while now, and find it really great until it comes to reporting. The most reported incidents, I'm guessing, are Roadworks, Accidents, Road Closures and Police.
    It would be great if you could put a direct button on the reporting menu for all of the above, as It's hard to get to report roadworks as there are a couple of menus to go through.

    By holding or swiping the Reports button you’re able to bring up the 3 most used report types for faster reports. You’re also able to use voice reporting using Google Assistant.
