  2. Mark dangerous streets to be avoided as alternate routes

    The app should have a feature to avoid perilous areas of the city unless the destination address falls inside the area. This is extremely important for waze users in cities such as Rio de Janeiro or São Paulo for safety reasons.

    הוספת שכבת חניה למשתמשים מורשים - כשתוכנת הוויז תזהה תחילת תנועה של משתמש , תעלה שאלה אוטומטית : "האם פינית מקום חניה?" במידה והמענה חיובי , תזהה המערכת את המיקום המדוייק של החניה ותעלה את מקום החניה בזמן אמת לשכבת החניה ע"ג המפה. כך יוכל כל משתמש הנגיש לשכבה זו לנווט באמצעות הפלטפורמה לחניה הקרובה ביותר אליו.

  10. Voice guidance only sound option

    Allow users to disable alert sounds, but keep guidance instructions.

    I like voice guidance, especially when waze directs me to do something weird in an unfamiliar area to avoid traffic.

    I find all alert notifications extremely annoying, and do not use the app for that purpose. It would be nice to be able to disable the annoying sounds and keep the useful ones turned on.

  11. Created an web app that helps you never get a parking ticket again. Your location queries database and puts parking info on phone screen.

    About this project Nobody wants a parking ticket, or worse – finding out their car has been towed. The no park ticket app will ensure that never happens to you again, or anyone else. Why give your hard earned money to parking cops? No more! The app and database has been created and the domain purchased. The app lets you know the parking limits and street sweeping times in real time on your mobile phone or tablet.

  13. Can you create a "rouch railroad crossing" hazard? In an unfmailiar area it would be nice to know if the railroad is going to eat your car.

    Please add a "Rough Railroad Crossing" hazard. Pothole doesn't quite describe the situation properly.

  14. I plan to use Waze data to support defense for moving out of lane unsafely summons

    I plan to use Waze data to support defense for moving out of lane unsafely summons - is there any legal precedence? I have great downloads from Waze site showing I never moved out of my lane - will the New Rochelle NY court accept these photos?

  16. Quick Route Refresh Button

    I'd like to see a quick route refresh button on the primary map screen during navigation that I can tap once to force the current route to refresh. I'm often in the midst of a route that I can see is starting to become a bad idea, but the Waze app isn't adjusting for the oncoming traffic issues. If I go in and choose navigate and refresh the route it will often give me an updated route. It would be great if I can accomplish this with a quick route refresh button right there on the map screen.

  18. Button to enable/disable tolls during navigation

    How about adding a "Tolls" icon above the Waze cloud icon to enable/disable tolls with just one finger touch? It could be extremely useful instead of looking for the option in the menu during driving. Then if there's already a destination set, the tolls icon should recalculate the driving directions in realtime. How about this?

  20. There is a app called gomechanic that's free and has emergency roadside assistance and a bunch of other devices. It gives you immediate help

    Get help to come to you immediately if your the one on the side of the road. It's cheap and the app is free and nation wide. You don't get charged for a 3rd party being involved. They can tow , bring gas or even fix your car. They come to you. That's what the app is about. Gomechanic would be a nice compliment to what you are doing. A solution to the problems that users report.
