  1. Warning window not strategically placed

    Currently, the warning window (police, hazard, etc.) pop-up on the top right corner of the screen. It takes quite a big portion of the screen, blocking the ahead map. For example, when it pops-up near a complex intersection, I can't see which right turn to take because it's blocked by the (less important) warning window.

    I think this is very important issue to be addressed. The warning window can be placed on the bottom left or right in form of a thin rectangle, even transparent one would suffice.

  2. Implement a setting for winter tires with studs and help driver to avoid forbidden streets

    Implement a setting for winter tires with studs and help the driver to avoid forbidden streets. In urban areas in the Nordic countries it is becoming more common that local politicians forbid driving cars with winter tires with studs on some streets with high pollution. When creating a route to a destination, Waze do not take into account that some of the streets may be restricted due to this. This is becoming a problem since the driver need to be a local to know where not to drive. Signs showing the restriction are always present but will be noticed too…

  3. Carpool

    It would be great to be able to tell the app that we are a carpool and get adjusted travel time predictions and routes maximizing use of HOV lanes when beneficial

  5. Identify drunk driver.

    Tonight I clearly saw a person who was driving drunk and was driving erraticly, swerving, etc. Identifying this for police officers would be huge so that action can be taken to get these driver's - whatever the situation (drunk or otherwise) to keep other drivers safe.

  7. Add an "Avoid traffic" routing option

    I don't mind adding a few minutes to my trip if it means I can keep moving and not get stuck in traffic. Waze already has the data to make this type of routing possible.

  8. Display alternative ETA's at junctions

    When I'm driving towards an intersection junction along my route with several route alternatives, I would like a feature that displays hor much longer those alternative route choices are.

    Why?
    1) My commute has several alternative route choices that differ in meters and seconds.

    2) The first Waze default route choice is not always best.

    3) Sometimes I can plan my route better than Waze, and don't always choose the Waze route.

    4) Sometimes I prefer some variety in my daily commute.

    5) Sometimes I want to choose a different route just so I can see something different.

  11. Place Photos

    To report a Place via the client, the user is required to first take a photo before entering any details.

    This process should be changed as it:

    • discourages Wazers from adding a Place if it is dark/raining or other factors prevent them from taking a satisfactory photo, and;

    • results in ineffective photos (blurry, dark, inappropriate) being added which do not fulfil the intended purpose of assisting other Wazers to identify the Place.

    Making Photos optional when adding a Place, and adding the ability to upload from the Camera Roll/Computer/etc, would improve the Waze map by enabling Wazers to add Places…

    Hey, 


    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not planned since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.

    We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

    Thanks!

  12. instant (just in time) ridesharing

    hello,
    currently I've noticed that waze start to offer ridesharing. And I've idea to make it far better: "hiker" demand ride - app'll seek for a best match which fits his requirements ( destination/ radius from dest & other optional params) in radius of ~3km or time limit...
    then notify both sides by voice when they're gettin near each other. It's meant like pick passengers along the road - with don't care attitude - you do not have to check when & where you gonna pick passengers ("hikers") before ride - plan your ride "in advance" & be bothered by…

  13. Auto return to map

    Auto return to "Me on map"

    I want a setting in the client where you can choose to return to "Me on map" after 10, 20, 30, 45 or 60 seconds of user inactivity. This does not seem to happen after selecting a menu option or starting to report an incident but changing my mind. This lack of feature is dangerous because it takes too much focus while driving to find the exact right place or places to touch on a phone to return to the map navigation view.

  14. Do not show the photo dialog in night mode

    Making a good night photo is very difficult. Most night photos in Waze are pretty bad. I suggest to not automatically show the photo dialog in night mode.

  16. Have optional driving laws and safe driving test and make results viewable to nearby Wazers.

    This will help improve safe driving as well as help Wazers make informed decisions about driving near/with other Wazers.

  18. להדגיש בצבע מיוחד גשרים ומנהרות בזמן שצריך לעלות או להכנס אליהם תוך כדי ניווט...

    בעיר סאו פאולו ואני מאמין שגם בערים אחרות בעולם ישנה בעיה של ריבוי נתיבים, לכן המון פעמים אנחנו טועים בדרך בגלל שטות קטנה לפי דעתי שינוי הצבע יפתור את הבעייה באופן כמעט מוחלט.
