To be able to report something on a road you are near to but not actually on, a road you can see or hear but your car is not on that road
I tried to do so today and could not not report it on the nearby road right near me but also could not fix the error when it tried to pick the road I was on instead of the road I was near. More editing capability to unreport something erroneous and to touch the nearby location and say the problem was there, not where I was standing but where I could see/hear.

Alert drivers that a street they are about to take is extremely steep and their car might not make it up.
Alert drivers that a street they are suggesting is extremely steep and that a car might not make it up that steep street. I have recently daily watched cars on a local street in Echo Park using Waze to get around traffic only to be directed up one of the steepest streets in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, unless they have a new car with great tires and transmission many are getting stuck on street on the way up. It is actually funny when I have talked to the people they all say that Waze directed them up this street. I bet…

Stop the "how can I help, one more time" feature. PLEASE! Talk to me only when spoken to.
Every time I get out of the car if I forget to turn the app off and put my phone in the pocket pick up a bunch of heavy objects from my car and walk into a store this thing in my pocket continues to ask me "how can I help, one more time." it's driving me out of my mind and I will delete this app unless it stops talking to me on its own.

Use accelerometers and gyroscopes to suppliment GPS data
Use accelerometers and gyroscopes to increase accuracy of location with with virtually no power increase. It would also allow navigation through tunnels and such when GPS location is lost. It would also prevent erroneous movement while stopped at a traffic light. There are companies testing this type of technology. One that I have been following but have no financial interest in is navisens.com There are videos from navisens at https://www.youtube.com/user/navisens

שעון מעורר לפני הגעה ליעד המבוקש
אדם נוסע בכלי תחבורה ציבורי (אטובוס/מונית/רכבת), עייף מאד מעוניין לנמנם, אך חושש לפספס את התחנה לידירדה המיועדת לו .
הוא מכוון אצלו צלצול לכמה דקות לפני הגעה ליעד המבוקש
וכך הוא גם יישן ולא יפספס את התחנה.2 votes -
Have Waze check the hours of operation to ensure you will arrive while destination is open.
I went to Lowes on Sunday, only to find out that the closest store to me was closed on Sundays (Blue Laws). There were 2 other Lowes stores that were close by that were open.
Suggestion: When entering a destination that has the hours of operation completed, have Waze tell driver that the location is closed, or that it will be closed at ETA. Driver can then override the message and still go to destination, or pick a new destination of same type or name. Of course, this would only work for locations that have hours of operation.

In gated communities don't take me to the front gate when I live near the back gate
It is a waste of time and gas to take me to the front gate of a large housing complex when I live near the back gate.

Traffic reports should end at logical intersection
Traffic reports should end at the next logical intersection: I am active with reporting traffic, because I hope the people leaving after me benefit from the reports. The cars stopped on the road don't care about the map editor and, most times, the traffic is at least running through to the next intersection.
That being said, MANY of my traffic reports stop randomly due to the segments drawn in the map editor. This is illogical.
(I get 'yelled at' for multiple reports when I try to update the true distance of the dead-stop traffic and this would be an easy…

waze whats near me
Add "Whats Near Me?" function to the app.
Add an option to find Places in WME "near me" on the map in the Waze App. Instead of searching for fast food or fashion and clothing, just allow us to find the closest 10 places to our current location. would allow for users to update existing places on the editor, add photos, and various other things. Thanks to
mindofbeholder for the idea.19 votes -
Add arrive button
Sometimes when arriving at very large places, Waze thinks that you arrive only when you are in the front door of the place. Think for example in a mall, the parking lot will be huge, but Waze already traced the route until the front door.
An "arrive" button will help Waze to understand that you are already at your destination and there is no need to recalculate the route while you are looking for a parking spot9 votes -
Police
Police alerts are helpful in many ways, the one thing that would help a bit more is if along with the alert there should be an indication of how much time has passed since the alert was posted. This feature is already available but only if you tap on an upcoming police alert icon in which you will see for example 10min ago on the top right corner, but it does not show in the alert that pops up as you drive....... Unless it is a construction site police are rarely in one spot for very long...... I feel that…

Add 2 min per turn
When the software is calculating route times to determine fastest route, consider artificially adding 2 min per road change to prevent crazy use of on/off ramps or side streets which save only 30 sec of traffic. A road change doesn't actually take 2min, but it's a hassle and increases accident risk, so it should save at least that much to be worthwhile. It could be a "setting" to add 0,1,or 2 min per turn. Perhaps even 3 min per left and 1 min per right.

Hi,
I'd just like to offer some feedback I think would get a lot more people using the app from Google Maps.
When using Google maps and you say "Navigate Home" or press navigate (mainly when in the Uber app, just as an example) it opens the Google Maps app, calculates the directions and then just goes. You don't have to take your eyes off the road to press go.
When using Waze you have to wait for the app to open, calculate directions and then press go. (Why press go? If it's something I can't think of then maybe…1 vote
