  1. Ability to users create their own "areas to avoid" / Possibilidade de usuários criarem suas próprias "áreas a evitar"

    (*descrição em português mais abaixo)

    Users should be able to set a perimeter by themselves to avoid some areas by personal interest or not - only in their apps and smartphones.
    Why? Some areas should be avoided if you don't want to pass by there for any personal reason.
    Its not about to create a "general exclusion area " but only users can add, edit and delete their own restrictions.

    Usuários deveriam ter a opção de criar suas próprias "zonas a evitar" em seus celulares e apos.
    E porquê? Porque você seria desviado de uma zona que não quer passar,…

  2. Indicate toll roads on main navigation screen

    Because a tiny icon in the route summary doesn't cut it and is often missed!

    Also ability to show (in route summary) the cost and payment methods (cash, card, NFC, NPR, etc) of the toll road so you can plan ahead.

  4. Waze is too heavy on system resources, try to enhance memory usage

    Waze got very heavy on system resources lately. Crashing extremely often. We had 3 relatively modern Android (>=4.4.2) phones on board and only on 1 waze could calculate route before it crashed. On this one phone that could at least calculate route Waze crashed when any warning on map was pressed or when you checked what is ahead of you (when more parts of map were loaded at once). Waze also froze my phone very often even when it was just navigating (nothing was pressed on screen when phone froze). It all looked like OOM and extreme overhead problems. Back…

  5. After the last update waze has become worse

    Dear developers.
    (If you are still reading this)
    No offense, but, after each update,
    waze, it is getting worse and worse.
    a feeling that you want to screw up this application,
    that all was abandoned.
    I confess, and I have such a thought slips, carry waze and go on something else. the good thing laid a lot.
    Lord, developers do not need to invent or anything, just carefully read the user reviews.
    After the last update waze began to fail even more. It lost a lot of functions, such as viewing events. the interface is not convenient! stael more children,…

  6. Improvment for the application

    Hi, my name is Orly Kubi from Israel and my suggestion to you is very simple but I think it’s necessary.
    Sometimes when I use the navigator it takes me from very strange ways and in the middle of driving I think to my self maybe I wrote the wrong destination.
    Could you please indicate during the entire navigation the chosen destination.

  8. [HAZARD REPORTING] Create a new drop-down self-populating list aka "Favourites" list of previously / recently / regularly typed hazards

    If we are honest, I would expect a lot of Wazers don't pull over to post a hazard warning and like me, are prone to do it whilst driving.

    I love the idea of being able to post a hazard warning when I encounter something that might benefit another Waze user, and this is where my idea comes in; in general terms everyone understands what a hazard is, and how unique they can be... if every suggested new hazard category option request posted here was implemented, you'd have a huge, unwieldy, and basically impractical list of choices to try and…

  9. Shorter Alert Sounds

    I often listen to podcasts while driving but get frustrated when the Waze alerts are long and tend to block the audio of the podcasts. Could we get a custom voice that says simply "Traffic" instead of "Heavy Traffic Reported Ahead", etc.

  12. Improve ability to report closures on forks and ramps

    When reporting road closures in the Waze client, for each road possible to report as closed, you get an X with an arrow pointed down the path to be closed. The problem is if the arrows overlap, you can only press the top most one. This makes reporting ramp closures or closures at a narrow fork impossible. It would be better if when arrows are overlapping, each press cycled between them.

  15. Graphics

    LOSE THE NEW GRAPHICS! I don't know why you guys did it but please lose the new graphics that came with the latest update. I feel like the app was programed by the Telletubbies.

  16. Landscape mode, indicator

    When in landscape mode on iPhone, there is no indicator that tells us that we are in a danger zone, a short signal and a visual indication appear at the entrance and exit of the zone but nothing in between, while in portrait mode there is a visual indicator. That exist on older versions

  18. Need improving favorite / search

    I have idea about favorite / search

    1. Why not let Waze search address from my contact list?
    2. Why not create folder in favorite? Like Friend, Company, Restaurant, etc.
    3. When click address on contact, link to Waze instead iPhone's map

    That would be great!
