When driving on
When driving through a many level street/highway, you should be asked in which level you are driving, since, at this moment, the App can detect you on either level, which leads to misdirections; if asked on which level one is driving, one would get the most accurate directions.

Streamline CarPlay display
I totally appreciate turning off the ability to add comments to traffic reports while on CarPlay. But if they're not going to expand so I can read something someone's already commented, can those green bubbles stay off the map?
For accidents and road work, it would be nice to be able to see which lanes are closed (if any) to avoid merging at the last minute.

Be able to add zebra crossings etc
We should be able to add zebra crossings too as I see so many many drive past while people are waiting. Having an something extra to draw their attention to it can't be a bad thing?!?

Sichtbarkeit von Stau auf der Route
In der Navigation kann man den Beginn bzw. Das Ende eines Staus nicht gut erkennen.
Die Markierung der Route (blau) ist zu breit bzw. die Markierung für einen Stau (rot) ist zu schmal.
Blau sollte vielleicht schmaler gestaltet werden, so dass eine bessere Übersicht entsteht.3 votes -
Clarity
As a private hire driver it is important to get the route up and running as fast as possible, without unnecessary messages. It would be great not to be told ‘this route is... [whatever]’ since whatever it says it what I expect. Even the ‘go now’ screen is unnecessary. I can use the other buttons to check my options. Even if this is not done as a default, it would be great to have the option to avoid these things. Every second counts when you have a passenger and need to see your route.

A way for Waze to distinguish between travel in express lanes or regular lanes on I-90 (Kennedy Expressway) and similar Chicago area roads.
I would like to see a way for Waze to distinguish between travel in express lanes or regular lanes on I-90 (Kennedy Expressway) and similar Chicago area roads. These are not HOV or toll lanes. Waze will often route me to the express lanes, but the line to enter the lanes negates any benefit, so I bypass and take the regular lanes. Waze, however, thinks I'm in the express lanes, causing navigation errors and headaches. Otherwise, I'm very happy with Waze. Thanks.

geocode
Does Waze offer an Address Geocode API? With the Waze map editor community, Waze knows about new roads before any of the other map venders, including PitneyBowes.

Add a music player which can play local files, such as VLC
The new music player feature looks nice, but it only seems to support streaming apps, with no apparent way to play media stored locally on the device. VLC is one such media player which supports a wide range of file formats, but there are many others.
Please support at least one such app for those of us who don't want to use streaming services.

Reduce taps required from search to navigation
Currently from the time I see an address for which I've searched to when I'm able to just drive and see the map and directions, there are FOUR TAPS in between those two things happening.
Tap 1 — Seeing the address as text in search results.
Tap 2 — Seeing the address as an official box in results.
Tap 3 — Seeing the address on a map with parking options
Tap 4 — Directions calculated, and clearing option to choose routes.When a person is starting to drive, that's quite frustrating.
I just want to GO. Please reduce this to…

recycling Feature
Dear Waze, I am a sixth grader at Spring Creek Elementary in Dallas, Texas. My robotics team and I are working on our project for the First Lego League City Shaper season. The goal of the project this season is to somehow improve our city. We are acknowledging that the world is having a hard time recycling. Would you help our cause and consider adding a special feature on Waze or Google Maps that shows where recycling bins owned by stores and other buildings that have signed up to have their recycling bin available to the public. Recycling is important since…

Make the maps work
4 out of 5 times waze will not give directions. It is frustrating and almost to the point we do not even want to use it anymore. Service is fine and other map works fine i don’t understand.

Integration between Waze and car features.
Some cars already have the integration between waze and its onboard system, I believe this functionality can be exploited in the best way.
How to apply the improvements:
Speed: If the speed is higher than the speed of the road, the application along with the car system changes the speed of the CAR in colors such as green (below speed), yellow (speed near the limit), red ( speed above the limit).Petrol Stations: Check the percentage of gasoline in the car and inform the nearest gas station (thus the propagation would be more effective, since it would be a user…

Add a simulation mode
Imagine you’re in a city or country that you don’t know and tomorrow it’s a monday, you have to be in a client’s office at 8AM. What time should I leave my hotel? I don’t know of monday morning I’ll find heavy traffic...
Maybe if waze had stored a traffic log (standards) from last week (for example), waze could give me (1 or 2 days in advance) a simulation of how long I’d take to head to my client’s office so I could get better prepared/planned.2 votes -
Adding raised road tresholds on Waze maps
It would be great to have raised road tresholds on the maps.
The tresholds are as dangerous as any other obstacle on the road - it needs a sudden breaking if the driver doesn't have information about the location of the treshold.
Usually the tresholds are marked poorly and not visible at all in the dark. Only if the driver knows the region they are aware of the location of the tresholds.I really hope that you could add the raised tresholds on the map for drivers safety or let drivers add the tresholds by themselves, this will be a…

Change option speed limit /speed penalty
in europe I travel through many countries. Each country has different speed penalts. it would be good to have a chance change the speed limit to the value of the penalty, for example, if my speed is 150, it's not terribly. but when my speed value is 400 € for a penalty then I better slow down.it is good for Young people . they have no sense and no money. and it's best for safety. at maximum speed an alert is displayed ,,, withdrawal of driving license
