  2. When the volume bar is dragged to zero, the navigation voice directions still lower the volume of my music. Please change this.

    I use the navigation, visually, but not the voice. As I can not find a mute button, I have instead dragged the volume slider all the way to 0.

    I then listen to music on my phone in the background through car speakers. Whenever there is a voice navigation queue, although the voice has no volume so I can't here it, waze still lowers the volume of my music for the duration of the direction, as such, my music seems to just lower the volume periodically which is rather annoying.

  5. Sometimes screen gets grayed out after some alert pops up and I become unable to tap and move the map

    When an alert pops up, the map gets grayed out, and after it closes out, sometimes the map stays grayed out forever, so it is inaccessible and I cannot scroll it to see the route ahead. The only way of fixing this is by closing Waze, removing the running app from the memory and opening Waze again, and then it needs to recalculate the route.

  6. Display the maximum speed for speed traps

    It would be a great help to display the maximum speed allowed at speed traps. I don't know elsewhere, but in Brazil you have several fixed/stationary ones with a fixed maximum speed limit.

  7. Allow the same place to be set as HOME and WORK

    I (and I guess several other waze users) work and live at the same building/address. Home office or shared use, it doesn't matter. There could be an option to set them as the same place.

  9. Post report via swipe movement.

    Allow smart phone users to do a quick report on a few most common reports by swiping their finger accross the phone. ex. police: swipe finger from left to right on the center of screen. General Hazard on road draw a circle on the screen. hazard on should draw a 1/2 circle on bottom of phone. etc. and allow users to turn off/on feature and to decide what motion reports what.... this would allow for fast and easy reporting with keep eyes on road.

  11. Can you add a Dog catcher/off leash warning locator thingy..:)

    I live in a "dog friendly" neighborhood where everyone generally has pretty well behaved dogs that run around and play with each other.. even though our neighborhood is fairly isolated we still get the occasional dreaded white city van that likes to give out $125 off leash tickets to people.. can you add a icon different than the police.. (our local officer comes over and plays catch with the dogs occasionally) so we can pass the word to leash up our dogs. thanks

  14. Integrate with retail location finders

    Can you integrate with web or native app location finders to help add a stop or diversion en route? For instance integrate with the Starbucks location finder to indicate where the nearest Starbucks is on my current route (ahead of me, not behind), so I can divert there. Could be Home Depot, Movie Theater, etc. Perhaps look for installed apps on setup?

  15. I love this program... most of the time..... I does tend to send me on some really strange routes.

    This isn't an idea, more than a comment and frustration vent. Quite often, WAZE will get me within sight of my destination, on a straight, correct path, and then tell me to basically go around the block or some other additional route for no apparent reason. I use the program for driving limousines and it's a little frustrating with clients in the car.

  16. a start from option

    Most of us know anywhere from 10-90% of our route. It would be nice to be able to have a "start from this area" option.

  17. Update gas prices in Germany automatically

    Since August 1st 2013 all gas stations in Germany have to report their gas prices in realtime to the "Bundeskartellamt" an independent competition authority. These prices can be integrated into navigation clients. There are already a number of apps that make use of this important feature. Would be very helpful if that could be integrated into waze.

  18. Gas station ID. Cumberland Farms vs Gulf

    Please recognize Cumberland Farms gas stations as different than Gulf. CF gas stations take a special check card that gets me 10 cents off a gallon. Take some cues from Gas Buddy! Thanks.

  19. Create a "memory mode" for operation without internet accesses

    Create a "memory mode" for operation without internet accesses.

    The memory mode should store the information about where you drive up to XX minutes (to be configured by the user) and will be fed to internet when then network is available again.

    This feature will help to log off-road and path in mountain where the cell phone coverage is bad.

  20. Report markers should be marked when the user presses the report button, not the send button.

    Whenever I drive on windy freeways, or freeways with frequent blind spots, I don't see reportable items (police, vehicles on shoulder, etc) until the moment I pass them. Given the typical delay of entering the data into Waze, the markers end up being 500 to 1000 plus feet away from the actual item being reported.
