Ability for people without smart phones
People without smart phones living near an area need a way to give warnings when road conditions will adversely affect drivers.
An example of this is the road construction at the intersection of 13th & Glendale, Topeka, KS that includes an abrupt 7" drop-off, which began about 11:00am June 9th.
Official details of entire project available are at http://www.topeka.org/pdfs/Tax/HillsdaleHandout.pdf
If non-drivers could just post an icon for Wazes users to be alerted to an 'unconfirmed' issue, Wazes drivers would at least know there is a reason to be extra alert, and the issue could more easily be safely confirmed by…2 votes -
favourite gas station price list (either highlighted on map or make a separate tab with list of them)
I live in big city /distance between work and home is 10+ km/. that means I dont see all gas stations around me (waze shows only 3km around your actual position). I would prefer to have a list or possibility to browse on map gas stations I am interested in. Or make them favourable and show them always on map .. so I can easily check where is the lowest price. without setting to navigate me home and going to the option to see any nearby gas stations on may way to/from work.

Points don't do anything. But they should.
Currently points only buy you a new avatar. Wahoo...
As a REAL incentive to participate in Waze, users who contribute to the community by reporting hazards etc. should be offered an ad-free experience. Those who "leech" would still be shown ads. After all, the platform is useless without the contributors. This could be your way of thanking them.

Bring back "See yourself on the map" option
I actually really miss the "see yourself on the map" option. I used it as a profile card and a way to show my friends my status and my cute Waze avatar. Now, I've finally got the crown and I have no way to show it off. Maybe there could be a status badge or something with our profile picture, the waze avatar, and some stats. Or you could just bring back what you already had. Thanks!

Skip suggested turn
It would be helpful to be able to skip a turn that Waze suggests when I know that I'm not going to make that turn. This way, Waze could already be recalculating instead of waiting for me to miss the turn and THEN recalculating, which takes time. So maybe there could be a button to press to make Waze calculate the next available turn. This would be useful when Waze tries to send me on a street that I know will be packed at that time of day or that I know is a hazardous street.

Dangerous vehicle (e.g., erratice driving) notification and vehicle assistance feature
Two new ideas for improvement
Notification to other drivers of dangerous vehicles (e.g., erratic driver, distracted driver, aggressive driver)
A link to tow services or vehicle assistance along route. Waze could serve as a great assistance if you breakdow and require a tow or vehicle assistance. If you set it up to accept online payment (like Uber) Waze could get a percentage cut of the fees for any tow vehicles dispatched. With the large number of users out there WAze could probably leverage lower fees for their users, provide the tow vehicles exact GPS coordinates of the user's disabled vechicle,…1 vote -

למה אין חיפוש במועדפים?
ולמה לעזאזל כשבוחרים משהו בחיפוש האופליין מהנסיעות האחרונות לפעמים הוא לא נשאר ברא הרשימה ונאלצים לעשות חיפוש אונליין מיותר שלפעמים לא זמין ולא מביא אותה תוצאה, כדי שישאר למעלה? אה?

You do have to do something about annoying the locals
Like, routing hundreds or thousands of cars through their previously quiet neighbourhoods is bound to cause upset... and you should not ignore that.
You should deal with it properly. Certainly if you're so smart, preventing to be fooled by false reports and all that, there's no reason you couldn't do something constructive for them, too. So, get to it.

אופס התקשורת עם שרת הניווט נכשלה
אופס לא התקבלה תוצאת הניווט בזמן הקצוב, נסה שוב מאוחר יותר. הודעות מיותרות בלשון המעטה ונימוס, הודעות זוועה שמצדיקות את פיטורי כולכם לרבות נשיא גוגל בלשון בוטה. את מי מעניין לדעת שאיבדתם קשר עם השרת? מה אתם מצפים? הודעת ניחומים? אתכם בצערכם? מסכנים שלי, איבדתם קשר עם השרת, רוצים זר פרחים? די לטמטום! מה כן לעשות אתם יודעים, לכתוב מחפש רשת... לא ברור? אם לא מספיק ברור תוסיפו אין קשר לשרת, מחפש רשת... אבל לא לתקוע לנו בפרצוף את ההודעה, ועוד היא לא נעלמת מעצמה. חבל שחברה כה מתקדמת לא מבינה זאת לבד, אז אני אסביר. צריך שני מצבי עבודה,…

מסך רשימת נסיעות
כיום במסך רשימת נסיעות לא נמצאת הנסיעה האחרונה. אתם אונסים את המשתמש לגלגל את הרשימה. אין זה תפקידכם להציק למשתמש בלחיצות מיותרות. מה שעליכם לעשות זה 1. לקצץ את המסך הענק העליון לשורה אחת בה בצד ימין אייקון סגירה, בצד שמאל בקרה, באמצע השם וזהו. את הציור של פרצוף בעיגול עם הכלב הכתום שלו תזרקו לפח. כבר יש לנו מקום לעוד שני שורות. בנוסף תוסיפו בבקרה בסעיף רשימת נסיעות שיופיעו בראש הרשימה. הראשון יהיה בית, את זה לא יהיה ניתן להסיר. אחר כך עבודה, מועדפים, נסיעות מתוכננות. מי שלא ירצה אותם ברשימה יסיר את הסימון. ויוכל להנות מהם כשילחץ על…

Road closure navigation update
When driving and find that the highway you're about to get on is closed. You sit in traffic for 45 minutes. After you pass the highway it continues to try to navigate you onto the highway when it is closed due to an accident

Add method to control number of turns, for city during low traffic, perhaps a button or slider
I use waze in the city during late night to morning hours in NYC and at times I ignore the waze in order to reach a destinnation quickly. The app is great but it doesn't seem to account for all the traffic lights that slow you down with its many zig zag turn directions. It becomes a bit annoying hearing it update its directions each time I ignore its instructions. Thanks!

I love the app, but it would be so much more enjoyable if you could add settings for the level of sarcasm and profanity.
I love the app, but it would be so much more enjoyable if you could add settings for the level of sarcasm and profanity. I'd love the app to sarcastically reprimand me after a 2nd or 3rd wrong turn!

Founded little error
I found one "big bug". When i login first time so i had to write my name but i was signed in google apps on my phone and Waze fill this field with my login "email" and password in plain text so Everyone could see my password to gmail.
I write example for better understanding: I had "anonym@gmail.com" in field Name and "password123" in field Last Name.
I know it is my fail (i should not save my password in my phone) but i think lots of people use it like me.Sorry for my English and i…

Aviso de aprobación de FOTO, LUGAR, ETC, al usuario waze que la reporto.
Sería muy bueno, que los usuarios que reportan FOTOS, LUGARES, ETC y que no lo pueden aprobar por tener un Nivel Bajo, reciban un mensaje automático cuando un usuario superior (Ej. L4, L5, etc) les apruebe dicho reporte. Creo que de esta manera, el usuario estaría viendo que su esfuerzo fue valorado y lo incentivaría a nuevos reportes. Gracias.

Rearrange layout of route choices
When I click on "ROUTES", the layout is so dumb that there is more space for the cute graph than the actual road names. So, for example, if I have to follow one same street in the 3 different options, I only see the name of that street so the 3 different options look the same. I would like to know more about each route, and I think there could be less space affected to the cute graph.
Right now it's like half the screen for the graph and I simply don't think that's necessary.
Here's a screen shot of…1 vote -
S-Turn penalties
In case of traffic even light, some ways become impossible to cross, mainly ave. with more than 3 or 4 lanes.
Proposal to include a S-Turn routing penalties in case of traffic in the crossing street.
This will avoid routing in ways with less than 200m (safe length for lane change is S-Turn even with traffic).
