Google based domain fronting for Waze to fight internet censorship
Hi
As you might know Waze is being blocked in different countries including Iran.
It would be great to implement domain fronting techniques for Waze client so people in countries with limited internet access could be able to use Waze without installing third party VPN software.
Messenger App Signal has implemented such techniques and it has been successful so far.https://www.wired.com/2016/12/encryption-app-signal-fights-censorship-clever-workaround/

Allow More Reports for Higher-Ranked Users
While some users may certainly attempt to gain points for unreasonable numbers of reports, there are many circumstances where high-frequency reporting is justified and should be allowed.
I suggest you allow users with higher rankings to post more reports, trusting those that use your app most frequently to be reasonable enough to post when needed.
Today I was driving through downtown Milwaukee. Waze kept instructing me to drive through streets closed for a large downtown event. Each intersection kept advising me to turn into a street newly closed, each with a police officer. After I reported just 2 street closures…

Show "inbox" on main screen.
I believe that many users are not aware about "Inbox" - this is important for editors waiting for followup on URs.
Long time ago inbox status was displayed on the main screen.28 votes -
Return to the continuous solid blue line
A recent upgrade has introduced a white arrow at junctions. It has made it harder to see where to go with just a glance at the screen. Sometimes the road after the turn is only a tiny bit of blue on the edge of the screen, so you need you need to look longer to see where Waze is taking you. It's particularly bad in poor light. Taking your eyes of the road for longer is not good for safety.
The white arrow adds nothing, please return to the clarity of the continuous solid blue line.

Radar alert with visual speed information
I suggest inserting the speed information into the radar notification. The notification now only reports that there is a radar a few meters ahead, not to mention speed. The radar speeds are all set up in the Waze maps, being information that can be easily extracted. The feature would certainly help many users, even eliminating the use of applications that perform this function. I also recommend that in settings there be options to "always be notified", "be notified only when above speed" or "never be notified." Allowing the user to decide on notifications.

Waze android auto: zoom in/out from the joystick
Waze in android auto should allow us zooming in/out from the multimedia joystick like we can do with google maps.
Maybe it would be intersting a new botton called zoom to highlight it and then we could move the joystick.15 votes -

Include applicable date range on TBR list
The new editing interface for time-based restrictions shows a list of restrictions and their Lane, Days, Time and Summary. Where multiple restrictions are necessary, it would make editing simpler if the applicable date range was shown on the list of restrictions to avoid having to open each in turn to locate the date range wanted.

Have an OPTION for arriving on the same-side of the street as the destination.
This would apply mostly to cities but it could also apply in other congested areas. Arriving on the wrong side of the street in a city situation can be as bad as arriving several blocks away since in order to turn into the parking for the building you cannot crossover the heavy traffic or possibly a median. Instead you have to come up with your own way of circling around (and there may be many 1-way streets to thwart you) to get your vehicle on the same side of the street as the destination so you can park/drop off or…

Subscribe to a stretch of roadway to obtain realtime notifications of any hazards within a geographic area
Certain professional individuals who drive the same road again and again could benefit from a feature where the user is able to subscribe to any new updates on a specific route or specified area, not just what is within map view for the user. As this would be a power user option, it should be able to be enabled in the configuration settings if a user wishes to use the feature. Notifications could come in via either the system notification tray, or via popups within the app. A total listing of what's entered and the thumbs status of each entry…

Roadside Help does not provide information about free State Service Patrols
The roadside help requests form makes no mention of state run patrol services designed to get people going for free. In many states, you call 911 or another number to summon the state services, during specific hours. In Massachusetts, it is 6-10am, 3-7pm weekdays via calling 911. State safety service patrols exist throughout much of the United States, with completely free services designed to clear roadways expediently. It would make sense to add this kind of information somewhere to the request assistance forms.
I would recommend the Waze CCP team communicate with their local state municipal partners to add Safety…

Finer control of what hazards display on the map.
This request seeks to add a finer control of which type of things appear on the map. I don't need to see construction crews, or weather hazards, or missing signs. I only need to see road debris, stopped vehicles, roadside assistance requests, and police. But currently, the options don't give you the choice of specific things you would like to see.
What I'm proposing is to break out the current "Hazards" category under Display & Map / Details on Map into each of the hazard categories available, so that users can select or deselect the hazards they care about seeing…
