Don't inundate me with popups on startup. . . EVER
I'm happy for you that you're updating your app, but PLEASE STOP throwing popups at me when I start the app afterward. That will only do three things: 1. Piss me off. 2. Endanger my safety and the safety of others during the most dangerous time of driving (pulling out of a parking spot/driveway) with the distractions. 3. Ensure that I never actually see the information you're trying to get me to see.
Please. Use common sense. Don't do this.

Launch Waze automatically when driving
It's rather annoying for me having to remember to launch the Waze app every time I start driving somewhere. Would it be possible for the app to detect that you are driving and launch automatically? Preferably with as little battery drain as possible.

Icons Instead Of Text
I suggest that all the reporting options should appear as large icons instead of text. In fact it should take up the whole page. It is much easier to quickly press a regularly used reporting feature than to go through a few steps for the same kind of report.

Option to say "not here" for traffic and construction.
Wake feed alerts seem to be old and inaccurate with no way to clear or report completed. Allow drives to vote construction and traffic reports off the map

Going home options
When the app first starts, it always ask if I'm going home. Many times I am, but I say no, only because I do NOT want turn-by-turn instructions for a route I know by heart and drive every day. The app should have the option to only show ETA and maybe suggest a new route for the traffic on my normal route home.

Prevent police from removing a report.
Police have caught on to Waze. They always click "not there" when someone reports them in Waze. An easy way to keep that from happening is to only allow the "not there" response from a moving vehicle. That way the stationary cop can't delete the report.

Push notifications for accidents along work route
Since waze knows my work route, it would have been useful this morning to have received push notification while I was at home that there was a major accident on I-69 before I left the house. I wouldn't typically look at my whole route on waze prior to leaving the house - this would be an awesome feature!

Stop making people sync to our contacts or facebook. I deleted the latest version.
Keep it simple. Keep it private. Why should we trust you to have a secure website?

Map zoom annoying
OK. I love Waze, but certain things can be quite annoying.
I wanted to find an alternate route and had a few problems.
First, when I went to select an alternate route, Waze didn't give me enough info to be able to select the route I wanted. It just gave me the initial roads, but not cities that I normally would use to select a route waypoint.
The map showed cities that I was not very familiar with. (e.g. Washington DC to Allentown, PA did not show York, Lancaster or places I could identify)
And most annoying, I had auto-zoom…

Safety directions in a city like Sao Paulo is more important than quickness!
Sao Paulo is a very complicated city and we have to face huge problems regarding violence everyday. I would like that Waze could be able to consider safety directions more than arrive fast at a destination. It would make all difference if we could report safe places or not. The thing is that I rather prefer to arrive in my final destination safely than not or faster.

Clean up Navigation route
Make your navigation route easier to see in congested areas by removing all the stuff not on your route. When using navigation, remove alerts, users, and traffic that are not on the identified route. Also, allow for traffic condition to be seen under the navigation route.
