Removing C3PO
Please tell me how to remove the C3PO voice and revert to the original. This is really getting on my nerves. This is a lesson in how to screw up a great app. It should be a configuration option. Bad Google!!

Warning window not strategically placed
Currently, the warning window (police, hazard, etc.) pop-up on the top right corner of the screen. It takes quite a big portion of the screen, blocking the ahead map. For example, when it pops-up near a complex intersection, I can't see which right turn to take because it's blocked by the (less important) warning window.
I think this is very important issue to be addressed. The warning window can be placed on the bottom left or right in form of a thin rectangle, even transparent one would suffice.

Implement a setting for winter tires with studs and help driver to avoid forbidden streets
Implement a setting for winter tires with studs and help the driver to avoid forbidden streets. In urban areas in the Nordic countries it is becoming more common that local politicians forbid driving cars with winter tires with studs on some streets with high pollution. When creating a route to a destination, Waze do not take into account that some of the streets may be restricted due to this. This is becoming a problem since the driver need to be a local to know where not to drive. Signs showing the restriction are always present but will be noticed too…

Identify drunk driver.
Tonight I clearly saw a person who was driving drunk and was driving erraticly, swerving, etc. Identifying this for police officers would be huge so that action can be taken to get these driver's - whatever the situation (drunk or otherwise) to keep other drivers safe.

To allow point choice from previous travel to input closures, hazards etc. when poor service hindered ability to add incidents earlier.
Example: mountain road closure - unable to add road closure because of poor service until at the base of the mountain.
Solution - for similar situations, manual point input, choose location in order to provide more accurate reporting where long back roads and mountains roads particularly after and during storms are more accurately updated.

Add an "Avoid traffic" routing option
I don't mind adding a few minutes to my trip if it means I can keep moving and not get stuck in traffic. Waze already has the data to make this type of routing possible.

Display alternative ETA's at junctions
When I'm driving towards an intersection junction along my route with several route alternatives, I would like a feature that displays hor much longer those alternative route choices are.
Why?
1) My commute has several alternative route choices that differ in meters and seconds.2) The first Waze default route choice is not always best.
3) Sometimes I can plan my route better than Waze, and don't always choose the Waze route.
4) Sometimes I prefer some variety in my daily commute.
5) Sometimes I want to choose a different route just so I can see something different.

Place Photos
To report a Place via the client, the user is required to first take a photo before entering any details.
This process should be changed as it:
discourages Wazers from adding a Place if it is dark/raining or other factors prevent them from taking a satisfactory photo, and;
results in ineffective photos (blurry, dark, inappropriate) being added which do not fulfil the intended purpose of assisting other Wazers to identify the Place.
Making Photos optional when adding a Place, and adding the ability to upload from the Camera Roll/Computer/etc, would improve the Waze map by enabling Wazers to add Places…

instant (just in time) ridesharing
hello,
currently I've noticed that waze start to offer ridesharing. And I've idea to make it far better: "hiker" demand ride - app'll seek for a best match which fits his requirements ( destination/ radius from dest & other optional params) in radius of ~3km or time limit...
then notify both sides by voice when they're gettin near each other. It's meant like pick passengers along the road - with don't care attitude - you do not have to check when & where you gonna pick passengers ("hikers") before ride - plan your ride "in advance" & be bothered by…1 vote -

Auto return to map
Auto return to "Me on map"
I want a setting in the client where you can choose to return to "Me on map" after 10, 20, 30, 45 or 60 seconds of user inactivity. This does not seem to happen after selecting a menu option or starting to report an incident but changing my mind. This lack of feature is dangerous because it takes too much focus while driving to find the exact right place or places to touch on a phone to return to the map navigation view.

Do not show the photo dialog in night mode
Making a good night photo is very difficult. Most night photos in Waze are pretty bad. I suggest to not automatically show the photo dialog in night mode.

Waze is the one app I use every day. Restore the large police icons, please.
The best component of Waze prior to the new update was that upcoming police, hazards, and traffic conditions were clearly visible because they had not been reduced to tiny little dots. Now, it is extremely difficult to see what is coming up ahead of you without zooming in extremely close to the map, which defeats the purpose of looking at what's coming ahead. Also, the cops are using Waze in the Atlanta area to untag themselves; I agree with what someone else suggested that several people must untag a police officer before it is removed from the map.
