Give a vulnerable population route
Sometimes you’re navigating in an unfamiliar area and you don’t want the fastest, rather you want the most populated route. I’m thinking, if you’re with small children, or if you are black/LGBTQ/etc. in an inhospitable, mainstream culture area, women driving at night, etc.

The possibility to spell a word when it is not understood
When I use voice it is not always clear or Waze does not hear the right word. Please give me the choice Let Me Spell This Word
When driving I have to stop to write the right word on the screen. That is not always possible.1 vote -

Waze is providing insane non-stop conflicting directions
It began on 95 NJ Turnpike weeks ago. Waze began to spout a succession of non existent turns etc. It is now happening on GSParkway and also now on local roads. It seems have only a hazy idea where I am but continually issues inappropriate turns etc.

Dead animal option in hazards
There have been several times where dead animals have been described as "objects". For example, today I saw someone's dog who had died on the road was described as an "object". As someone who is very upsetted by dead animals, I would like there to be an option for "dead animal" so I know not to look. I know there used to be an option for it, but now it seems to be gone.

It Pays To Waze
After getting a couple speeding tickets and almost having a wreck because I didn’t have Waze turned on, I realized how beneficial ways would be. As a result, I came up with a little slogan…”It Pays to Waze” I really think this would be a great jingle for advertising and maybe even having a website it pays to Waze to promote the app and it’s benefit to our driving ability.

RV routes
I use Waze vigorously, however, in the summer of vacation time we adventure out in our RV. It would be helpful to have routes provided by selecting the vehicle type as an RV, and using roads specifically safe for an RV/18 wheeler truck.
These vehicles are not designed for small narrow roads, and would need to have the safest route provided possible.
Is it possible that we can have better options for the vehicle type, and this way Waze can make a suggested route specifically for said vehicle type? I honestly believe this would increase the amount of users for…

Decouple map display from light sensor
The current version of Android Waze always uses the information from the light sensor to display dark or light mode. My car doesn't have a light sensor (even though it is a 2023 model). Therefore, my map display is always dark, making it very hard to see in bright sunlight. Could you make it possible for users to select whether to use the information from the light sensor or not? Thank you!

Voice alerts only for red light cameras and railroad crossings
Voice alerts only for railroad crossings and red light cameras. It is very annoying to have to hit the close button in order to see the map every time you hit a railroad crossing or red light camera. Especially now that red light cameras are popping up constantly. Having to hit the button is distracting.

Add the local Bus Routes
Instead of only having a driving section you could make it to where we can navigate the local busses in our areas such as in Louisville ** we have the TARC for people who don’t have a car or vehicle.

Getting Waze notifications and the state component of search results foreign language
So I got a notification / alert from Waze today in a foreign language. I've also noticed that my recent search results within the app have the state of the address in a foreign language as well. What's going on here and how can I fix it / is it a known issue /being worked on? It's pretty useless having a notification that I can't understand.
