  1. Send location to others should default to user preferences. Such as always SMS

    The option now adds extra steps for users. Most users always use text so why pull up all options available to share location?

  2. Find my bus

    I spend too much time waiting for a bus. I would love to know where it is. While I am on a bus I would click on the "on bus" button and I would type in my bus number. Now other users could know exactly where my bus is.

  5. Set location of a "Report" for where you press the Icon that displays the reports instead of setting it where you are when you select send

    I like to participate in Waze to help others as they've helped me, but often don't see things to report until I'm already on top of it. (i.e. speed trap, hazard, etc.) I've found that the location based on my selection is placed far further on the map from the actual occurrence by time I select the remaining options and hit "Send". As the last thing I want to be doing while traffic is maneuvering and breaking is seeing which additional selections need to be made to make sure I select correctly, it would be nice if selecting the "Report"…

  7. add friend by username

    I would like to add friends by their waze username. As a long time adapter of waze, I always found it odd that I couldn't add friends by username. WIth social media being so open, there are still users who feel waze does not need to know their phone number and shares the drive just fine through email and text messages. It is unfair to only allow people to connect by giving up personal information or using social media. A person's location is private information and should be allowed a more private way to share it if needed.

  8. 8 digits Phone Numbers in French Polynesia

    Phones Numbers in French Polynesia are in 8 Numbers format since July 2014 instead of 6. Please can you upgrade ? Since it is impossible to send an SMS for a security code.

  9. Pop-ups on top of pop-ups

    Sometimes, especially during rush hour, I receive several pop-ups in a short period of time but when I clear the visible pop-up, thumbs up or not there, the previous pop-ups disappear. All pop-ups received should remain until either cleared or they time-out.

  16. My waze needs a sporty mood.

    I didn't feel like doing my hair today so a generic hat would be nice. Maybe some eye black to complete my game face.

  17. waze over wifi

    Please allow Waze to connect to the internet over wifi. I have a 7 inch wireless only tablet that is much easier to see than my cell phone. I can tether my tablet to my cell phone (hotspot) and browse the internet - Why can't I do the same with Waze?

  18. Use Waze to help fight traffic by including tips encouraging the Zipper Merge (merging every other car), not rubber necking, etc.

    It seems like a lot of people don't know how to merge. So you're forced to wait for a gap or force your way into a lane. Waze could be very helpful to build better driving habits. These tips could be sent via message or when the app is opened.

  19. Illuminated roads

    Since I am an enthusiastic runner, I'd like to know which roads have street lights. This can also come in handy to plan a safe route home for the girls.
