Multiple Entries in the Phone D <irectory.
The initial setup populated my phone directory with duplicates making it now three times larger, separating each Google account. It should only attach itself to the primary account directory and give the option to include or exclude contacts.

Would be nice if it would be possible to add map notes, maybe visible only to the user who created it.

Please add the ability to search for closest poi to my current route.
If I am already driving using your app, I would like the ability to search for food, a bank, or a coffee shop not too far off my route. You guys already calculate the time off route but if you add my suggestion it would make your app that much better.

positions of reported locations are too far down the road, probably due to entry time. Suggest capture location on first screen touch
Add feature to disable audible directions but keep audible alerts. Directions when I know the way are annoying.

iPhone Reporting
It would help if your location could freeze while you're making a report that way the location is more accurate. Now when you make a report your passing the location almost a mile before you get a chance to put in the information

I'm thinking on replacing my car's speedometer with it
I like your app so much, I'm thinking of replacing my car's speedometer with it. Can you recommend a 7"~8~ tablet with GPS that would work well in that role. I will dedicate the tablet for that purpose.

Speed Trap notifications
I'd like to see permanent or semi-permanent notifications for known speed traps. I'd also like to post about said traps so others don't get caught but can't figure out how to drop a notification remotely

Buses live - drivers catch buses too
Use the facility that you have but simply add the bus number that you are on. People can then see wherever their next bus is (live input from WAZE users) or see where the alternatives are. Set up simple: Which city are you in? e.g. Brisbane Australia (stays as the default location setting). Have a button for Buses (a BAZE button). What bus are you on? 180 - and that's it. You may make it that at least 3 people need to enter the number to be valid and it would be good to drop people off if the bus…

Reporting Long Light Cycles
I recently sat at a left turn signal for 4 or 5 cycles. I wanted to report a LONG light so others didn't try to turn there too. Currently I cannot do that.

Mute voice guidance near home/work
Please have an option to mute the voice guidance in a radius of [X] distance from my home, and/or from work. Alerts should not be muted by this setting.
It's annoying that I have to listen to voice guidance near my home -- I know how to get from my house to the main road, thank you very much! But turning the voice off and on again during the drive (during every drive!) is a nuisance and a safety risk.

Reduce FPS and disable animations to save battery
Some navigation apps save battery by refreshing less often, except around instructions points (ie. turns, exits, etc.). When the user is supposed to simply follow the road for a long time, the refresh rate could be as low as once every 5 seconds.
Waze could also offer an option to disable transition effects (smooth rotation around current position, streets fade in and out, menu animations, etc.).

Allow the "Stacking" of alerts on the display
As an example, you are driving along and an alert for the police ahead pops up. You continue on but before you reach the place where the police are supposed to be where you can confirm the presence or advise them not present another alert of some other kind pops up. Now you cannot comment on the first alert. The alerts should stack so the closest one is displayed at the top of the stack

Allow me to delete the hazard "Vehicle stopped on shoulder" without deleting all hazards
You need to be able to split which road hazards you want or don't want. I would kill to be able to stop being told about a vehicle on the shoulder but still be able to know about other hazards. Seriously, if the vehicle is on the shoulder it isn't a hazard.

Navigation: option to avoid cobblestone, brick streets. This would be very appreciated by car drivers, motorcyclists. Android user.
I hate it when I get navigated down a cobblestone or brick street. You have to crawl along so your teeth don't fall out. I'd rather take a longer route than drive over these streets here in Seattle.
