5. הזנת בית עסק חדש ל-Waze

   לדעתי כדאי להכניס את הקטגוריות השונות שמוצגות לאחר צילום בית העסק - באתר שמסביר על כך (https://support.google.com/waze/answer/6125653?hl=en). זה יוצר חיסכון בזמן ופחות טעויות ברגע האמת :)

9. Samsung Gear S2 integration

   I'd like Waze to integrate with the Samsung Gear S2, which is on the Tizen OS. Most particularly, I'd like vibrate reminders of upcoming turns. Also, navigation initiation and address lookup would be useful.

   I'm using the device with a Nexus 6 on Marshmallow.

10. Stop routing traffic down quiet residential streets

    Your app has a very narrow focus. It doesn't take the actual street or the people that live on it into consideration. I have lived on a very quiet residential street until your app has increased in popularity. Thanks to your app, our street is now like a mini-highway and two neighbor pets have recently been killed. Additionally, your ignorant app doesn't take into consideration that it is directing traffic to take a very dangerous left turn onto Briarcliff Road. The results have been numerous accidents. Please take Stephens Drive, 30329 off your cut throughs at once.

11. Allow routing to avoid defined zones on map (bad neighborhoods, long term construction, etc)

    Lots of people have suggested that Waze have an option to avoid "bad neighborhoods" or other areas for other reasons, but I understand that it would be very difficult for Waze to do that automatically. For a given city, you usually have to be a local resident to know that you should avoid a certain area in your daily commute.

    So, give each user the option to define avoidance zones in our apps. That way, Waze is not responsible for making that determination, the individual users do it. It could be just a simple polygon drawing function, with a checkbox to avoid the area in routes.

    That way, Waze won't constantly try to send me through the prime carjacking area in my city every time I go home. That would be nice.

13. Use front-facing camera to do things (if available)

    I position my iPhone in a cradle that attaches to the windscreen, and I think that I'm not alone. This camera has a pretty unobstructed view of the road ahead, which Waze could use to produce awesomeness! I can immediately think of a number of cool things that you could do with this, depending on how much image processing you want to do. Here are some user stories for you :)

    ---

    As a: User concerned about recording details for insurance purposes in the event of an accident
    I would like: Waze to record the field of view in front of me on a loop of user-selectable duration and save that loop to my videos in the event of an accident (as detected by the device's accelerometer, or other means)

    So that: I can review the details of any incident at a later date

    As a: Waze user that likes to help other Waze users by posting traffic updates
    I would like: Waze to examine the field of view in front of the vehicle (in conjunction with the GPS-detected velocity) and automatically determine if the traffic is heavy, or and prompt me to see if I want to send an update (or just do it automatically, if I've given Waze permission to do so in some settings option)

    So that: I don't have to manually do this, and the frequency of updates can be greatly increased

    As a: Waze user that likes to help other Waze users by posting hazard updates
    I would like: Waze to examine the field of view in front of the vehicle and detect common road hazards (objects in the road, on the shoulder, etc)

    So that: I don't have to manually do this, and the frequency of updates can be greatly increased

    As a: Waze user that likes to help other Waze users by posting hazard updates
    I would like: Waze to examine the field of view in front of the vehicle and detect if traffic or hazards that have previously been reported are now not there

    So that: Other users don't get out-of-date information about events on their route

    As a: Waze user that is concerned about tiredness while driving
    I would like: Waze to monitor the driver's posture, eyes and motion via the front-facing camera and look for signs of tiredness
    So that: I can recieve a loud alert in the event that I inadvertantly become drowsy, which either suprises me into a more alert state so that I can safely stop, or alerts other occupants of the vehicle to the situation

    OK, that's some camera ideas. Here are some other ones:

    ---

    As a: Driver planning a long journey
    I would like: Waze to (have the option to) prompt me to stop approximately every two hours and propose some local stopping place (service station, restaurant, cafe, hotel, etc)

    So that: I find it more difficult to accidentally drive for unadvisably long periods

    As a: Driver that is travelling with at least one other person in the vehicle
    I would like: To be able to install a "Waze: Co-pilot" app on an iPad (Air, mini, pro, etc) that would interact with the current Waze app (lets call it "Waz; Navigator") and allow the vehicle's "co-pilot" to analyse various navigation options on the "secondary" device and make course changes that will be seen on the "navigator" device.

    So that: The driver doesn't have to be distracted with making changes and decisions while the vehicle is in motion

    As a: Driver, with a co-pilot receiving, receiving a prompt to stop
    I would like: Information to be presented to the co-pilot to be sourced from some third-party travel information provider, such as Trip Advisor

    So that: We can crowd source reviews of the standard of stopping places

    As a: Driver without a co-pilot receiving a prompt to stop
    I would like: To simply be told to stop "at the next available stopping place"

    So that: I'm not needlessly distracted from the task of driving the vehicle

    As a: Waze user who wants to see additional, non-traffic, information on the map
    I would like: To be able to see a variety of "overlays" on top of the current Waze map

    So that: I can see things like the wind speed and direction on the road ahead, or the amount of rain, or the temperature (in case of ice, for example), or the gradient of the terrain

    As a: Waze user that has placed the device out of easy reach
    I would like: Waze to listen for the direction "Waze!" and be able to perform various tasks through voice interactions
    So that: I can drive with minimal distraction due to trying to interact via touch
    [
    I'm thinking something like:
    "Waze, report heavy traffic"
    "Waze, report hazard on the shoulder of this carriageway"
    "Waze, plot route to <some kind of address>"
    "Waze, take me home"
    "Waze, reroute around an obstruction for 5 miles"
    ]

    I position my iPhone in a cradle that attaches to the windscreen, and I think that I'm not alone. This camera has a pretty unobstructed view of the road ahead, which Waze could use to produce awesomeness!

16. maximum one report per X miles

    Hi there,

    Waze is awesome and everyone is using it. Some like me to navigate from Northern Denmark all the way to Romania on holiday others just to find out about speed traps.

    In Romania, Waze caught a lot of media attention so we have a lot of new users, who are obsessed with the points. The new users part is good. We get more reports, more places, we improve on the map problems and we know exactly where the police is :)))

    But then due to the point system, the new users instead of thanking for a reported police trap they keep re-posting the same thing a lot. This leads to 10-20 police reports for only one police speed trap.

    In a village which was 1km long I've seen 13 police reports for the same police car. I generally look from time to time on the map, and even if it is a police marked on the other side I pay attention to the speed limit.

    It would be nice to have a limit of reports per a certain distance. I've used other police trap apps and they were limiting the distance between the reports. This way you could only report another police trap if it as more than 1 km away from an already existing one.
    This is also happening for traffic reports where on a stretch of 1km road you get 20-30 heavy/standstill traffic. This will only load the server and client uselessly and also consume more data on the end user and server.

    SUGGESTION: Limit the number of POLICE (visible or invisible)/WEATHER/TRAFFIC/CAR STOPPED ON SHOLDER/ROAD WORKS reports to maximum 1 per 1km in both directions. If a user tries to post a new similar/identical report, use his report as a THANK YOU for the existing report and warn the user to use the thank you (thumbs up) button next time.
    The pothole report should be left as it is, as you might have potholes 800m apart.

    Thank you.

17. Option to disable route recalculating alert. That nerve wracking chirp is driving me crazy!

    Whoever approved that grating & obnoxious squawking route recalculation alarm should be fired. I drive a cab and even my customers cringe when they hear it and say "what's that awful noise". PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LET US TURN IT OFF! Alerts only should mean alerts only. Hearing that damn noise screech and grate 5 times when I'm driving through a parking lot is maddening!

    Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

18. Differentiate "dirt road" of "4x4 trail".

    "Dirt road / 4x4 trail" should be called "4x4 trail" only, and keep the same navigation capabilities as now, only to be allocated as such the badly damaged roads that only 4x4 vehicles are able to travel it.
    In the "street category" should be added a new type of segment called "dirt road", which would be passable streets for any vehicle but their ability to circulate them may vary due to various external factors such as weather. Because of this, they should suffer some level of penalty in the routing, and allows the "avoid dirt roads" in the application for the wazer (this option should generate routes with the least amount of "dirt roads" when there were no other navigation option when is set a target in a "dirt road" segment).
    "Dirt road / 4x4 trail" as it is now is causing problems of interpretation in editors and users in many countries.

20. Recent Changes resulted in worse routes

    I commute to NYC daily through crazy greater NYC traffic and Waze saved me time by always great routes. Whatever changes have been implemented over the last few months have completely ruined the route selection, or criteria used to determine the routes. They are often wrong, sending me far out of my way. But when I run Apple Maps in parallel with WAZE to test these routes, they are always incorrect and take longer. The product was perfect and made me switch from MAPS. Now performance is so bad I need to switch back to MAPS in order not to waster my time.
