Other side
What happened to other side accident report?
9 votesThank 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.
Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram. -

I was very annoyed by your ads while I was trying to find my destination. If this continues, I will stop using WAZE after years of recommen
The WAZE ads for nearby restaurants are very discombobulating, when they appear on the screen while I am trying to find my destination. Better to charge people for this service than to interrupt them while trying to get to their destination. I will stop recommending WAZE after years of touting it.

Drive time multiple stops
It used to be that if I had more than one stop programmed, it would display both drive times. Now, it only displays one drive time, and two ETAs instead. This is particularly unhelpful if I'm looking up a drive for later. Could we get the double drive times back, please?
Also, I'd like to be able to remove the "planned drives", "calendar events" and "Facebook events" from my nav menu. They just get in the way.7 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.

Add a reminder NOT to leave pets in the car in hot weather.
A reminder should pop up to advise wazers NOT to leave pets/animals in the car during the summer or in hot locations. It could be added to the child reminder, or be a separate reminder. The child reminder is great but likely Pets are left more often in cars than children. It's important to add the animals.
6 votesChild reminder can be used for this purpose – the functionality has a field for custom reminder text.

"Change orientation” button. Notifies waze that the orientation of the car is the opposite than what waze thinks
Effective when coming out of a parking spot for two reasons: 1. To correct waze when noticing it is wrong. 2. If one can come out of the parking spot to two different directions, the button allows checking which way will consume less time, and choosing the direction appropriately.
58 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

In-app purchase for voices (like T-Pain)
If people want to keep a promotional voice (like T-Pain), give us the option to buy it as an in-app purchase.
8 votesThank you for your suggestion!
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 currently don’t offer a paid version of app voices.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!

Allow users to flag Other Side when indicating Police, Hazard and Traffic Jam, just the way we can do for Accident indications
When you indicate an accident, you have an option to indicate the position on the other side or the road (on a two-way road). It would be nice if you could do the same for traffic jam, police and hazard reports. Don't you agree?

Use the internal camera in powerfull smartphones to automatic scan for speed limits signs
Use the internal camera in powerfull smartphones to automatic scan for speed limits signs and show them in waze and also add this speedlimits automatic to the database for all other users. This could help to add more actual speed infos in waze.
2 votesSpeed limits are added by editors by means of Waze Map Editor. Using phone cameras to detect limits on the fly would be a feature complex to implement and unreliable to use given the circumstances.

Final destination announcement/display.
When using a favorite or getting an address from a calendar event, it is often difficult to know exactly where the destination is. without having the full address displayed upon arrival. Rather than saying "You have arrived at your destination," it would be better to say "You have arrived at 3478 NW XX st.

Stop the onscreen ads!
Today I started seeing 1/4 screen ads for the NBA or something...while I'm driving!? Are you freakin' serious?! Not appropriate Google/Waze. Totally stupid and distracting and greedy on your part. Stop it. Now.
