Bring back "All Reports"
Please bring back the "All Reports" functionality. This feature existed in the original Waze interface but was removed in the newest iteration (as of October 2015).
I used the All Reports tab to keep track of nearby accidents, police officers, and hazards before and during every trip. It was the tool I regularly used to get an overview of what my morning and evening commutes would look like, as I travel over 50 miles each way to work.

Add home/work/favorite choice for Home Screen app 3D touch on iOS
Please add 3D touch capability for home/work/favorite location under Waze home app. It would make it much quicker to navigate to most frequent places on iOS.

Police Car in the middle
On the open interstate highways in the USA the State Highway Patrol sit in the middle but I don't know which direction the police is shooting. If there is a "middle" option, it would alert Waze users of either direction. Not only one side of the highway
11 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Roadkill icon replacement
Please replace the roadkill icon with something else. It looks like a poor little hedgehog and it makes me sad. :(

quick Location marker button
Please add the option that with a click of one button or one touch of the screen that would mark the exact location of the incident or notification to be made. This would greatly improve the accuracy of the reports being made. From experience, reports are made a good distance away from the incident depending on how fast driving, how safe it is to make the report at the time, or how fast one comes up on the item to report.

perte de compte
Je trouve grotesque que l'on perde son compte lorsque l'on change de téléphone. Le message reçu de Waze lorsque j'ai voulu retrouver mon compte est hallucinant de désinvolture, c'est à peu près ceci : "Oups, ils semble que votre compte se soit perdu dans le labyrinthe".
Comment imaginer que des mois et années de fidélité se perdent pour un changement de téléphone !!!18 votesThanks for reaching out.

Text colors
Presently, in turn-by-turn navigation, the distance until the next maneuver is in white an the name of the street/exit where that maneuver is to take place is in blue. The blue text is hard to read against a black background; and since the name of the street/exit is more important than the distance to it (IMO), I recommend switching these colors to show the street/exit name in white (and the distance in blue).

Notificatiosn need to be posted earlier in time to compensate for people who drive 70-80 mph on highway. That equates to almost a half mile
I will constantly get notifications after I have encountered them. Police, object on road, pothole, etc. Your system needs to make the adjustment for highway speed vehicles. At 80mph a half mile can go by in the 20 seconds it may take to post a notification. That is more than the length of time you offer the notifications...

Screen slide to reveal friends list feels very "trigger happy"
Have noticed it quite difficult to pan and zoom the live map without activating the "Friends" sliding drawer from the right side of the screen.

Report traffic lights with poor timing
I think there could be many benefits to reporting traffic lights with unapporpriate timing mechanisms, i.e. a light on a through street which turns red with great frequency when no cars or pedestrians are using the cross street. This holds up traffic unnecessarily and can cause further congestion. This information could be sold or provided to cities to help them use aggregate information to determine which lights potentially need to have their timing adjusted (Waze could aggregate the top 10 worst timed traffic lights in the city). This information could also be used internally by Waze to help provide the…

car icon at bottom of screen when north up map is selected no good.
For North up map preference, your car icon should be centered on the screen not at the bottom of the screen otherwise you cannot see your path when you are heading south as it quickly runs off the bottom of the screen

An option for user to accept or deny autocorrect in input fields
I love Waze, but the new version changed my last name and wouldn't let me change it back. My last name is Dong, and it kept changing it to Don't. It's kind of funny at first, but no longer after a while. Please give me an option to input my own name.

Police notifications after the spot
Wish there was a way to move the report location. Many times the police running radar are stopped at a location on the interstate. By the time I get to post the report I've traveled maybe up to a quarter to half mile past the spot. No use to those behind me.
