  2. Select which lane a hazard or stopped vehicle is in on the motorway/freeway

    Users should be able to select which lane a hazard or stopped vehicle is in on the motorway/freeway.

    When driving on a multi-lane road, there's often reports of a hazard that cannot be seen. It would be more useful for "Which lane is the hazard in?" then select 1/2/3/4/5 so that drivers know specifically if it is likely to affect them.

  3. Organisation des icônes sur l’ecran

    L’icône donnant la vitesse n’est pas fonctionnel dans son positionnement. Il faudrait le positionner ou l’on veut l’idéal étant en haut à droite. Explication : lorsqu’il y a un radar, des bouchons, nous ne voyons plus la vitesse. Il faut donner la possibilité de positionner les icônes dont on a besoin et à l’endroit certain

  4. Provide an alternative route when accident in front of me

    I need the app to provide enough in advance an exit off highway with an alternative toure. It happens to me all the time that Waze gets me stuck in the constipation. ******* banana. It used to work this way. Not anymore. I am crazy.

  7. Shortcuts for Hazard Reports

    When using the Hazard Report feature in Waze I often find that:

    1) I use 1 to 3 reports a LOT more often than any others.

    2) I often find that selecting these hazard icons using the current method is fiddly, dangerous when driving, and slow, resulting in the report being sent late, often about 100 meters or more past the hazard.

    My improvement idea is to add 1 to 3 hazard SHORTCUTS that "slide out" for selection from the existing hazard report icon (yellow triangle) on the FIRST touch, they would then "slide in" again after selection to avoid…

  8. Good imagery quality for Prioritised by Date

    The current image quality from additional imagery> prioritised by date is very poor and pixelized. Currently, not all areas have the latest imagery, and to view the latest imagery in detail, many times you need to rely on Google Earth Pro. So please provide same imagery quality as Google Earth Pro.

  11. Add "HIGHWAY FIRST" to route preference

    When there are several routes available, I've noticed that Waze may calculate a route that combines both ground roads and highways. This is done to save a little time or reduce toll fees but can result in entering the highway from a distant entrance or exiting the highway too early. This approach leads to more instances of entering and exiting, as well as increased interactions with other drivers, which is unnecessary and more dangerous.

    I suggest implementing a "HIGHWAY FIRST" preference. When a highway is available, the system should calculate a route that prioritizes the use of highways, even if…

  12. Better navigation - height width weight

    Please add three values to segments, maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight. All segments should default to 0.

    Please add user settings of maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight. They should default to 0. The label should direct the user to enter their height/width in metres and weight in tonnes.

    When reviewing a navigation route, check if there is a value of maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight exceeding 0. If there is a value, cross-check the users maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight is lower.

    If the users value is higher than the segment value, disregard that segment as a navigation option.

    This would help users of a wide range of…

  13. Dynamically configure waze session based on Bluetooth connection (for motorbike/car/truck)

    Certain apps have the ability to detect what Bluetooth device is connected.

    My suggestion is to allow users to pre-configure different Bluetooth connections to different vehicular modes, for example, a Bluetooth headset may be used on a motorbike and therefore Waze could detect that this Bluetooth connection is present and set itself for motorbike mode, likewise, an in-car radios own Bluetooth connection could be configured for a car, and finally, a different Bluetooth connection could also be configured for a truck, I envisaged then that this would allow users to predefine certain options like toll passes, low emission zones and…

  14. Allow the user to enter a reminder of a street or a location where police regularly positioned.Waze would then remind you to be careful

    Allow the user to put in a location with a reminder /warning for themselves and maybe other users where they know where police regularly set up speed traps. The driver allows themselves to be fore warned.

  15. PLEASE FIX ASAP -> Fix the pointing arrow facing the wrong direction

    When I get in my car the arrow just flips to the opposite direction and shows that route.

    It will be better if the app can allow to calibrate so that the arrow can face in the direction I am looking at. I am keep on frequently getting this problem and this needs to be fixed. I have looked up on the suggestion box and someone has also mentioned this in 2020 and no-one has fixed this issue

    Please fix this problem. This way all drivers are able to navigate safely to their destination.

    Return the colors back to the original map editor colors. Off-road/dirt road now appears as thin gray instead of brown. This makes it difficult to use when intentionally off-roading and causes normal drivers to accidentally end up offroading.Hence all the Waze meme and jokes not to use Waze in traffic. The colors were perfectly fine before

  17. Audio alerts for speed and red light cameras

    My audio alerts for speed and red light cameras stopped working a few months ago. I'm running waze directly on my phone (Google pixel 7) with the latest version of Android OS and waze app installed. My settings for alerts are correct. I see the flashing camera on the map and text alert on the screen but audio alerts are not working. I live in NYC where cameras are on every other block. Constantly monitoring the phone screen for visual alerts while driving is annoying and dangerous. I see lots of similar posts with replies from waze that the issue…

  19. Automated Incident Emergency Detection & Location Screen Change and 3 type descriptor

    Unless it is your day job, and even then, most people faced with an emergency situation either as a victim or a witness, especially in a vehicle, will suffer immense rushes of adrenaline pumping around the body, any injuries invoke confusion as delayed shock sets in.

    Is there/ can there be any rapid single panic-proof (user option selected) - such as 5 second hold of fingers on the screen in two places simultaneously or gyroscopic sudden impact detection via phone or user holds max/min volume buttons at their max point for a duration (viz like Apple power down) - depending…

  20. Local driving instructions without highways

    Instead of always giving directions using highways, you should investigate methods using "back ways", meaning using local streets as some people don't like to go in highways. Also, when directions are given, please give FULL instructions, not just show an arrow pointed to the right or left without mentioning on what road to make that turn.
