  2. Shark notification

    There are has been a lot of attention this season on the coast about shark attacks. As a wazer, I have my phone with me when I'm on the beach. I think it could be useful if waze could be utilized on the coasts to tag that a shark has been seen in an area, much like we are able to do now with hazards and things. This could be a first alert type of system that could send notifications to other wazers in the area.

  3. I would like to know if the road ahead of me has not had any waze drivers in the immediate past If there are no reports.

    There should be a way of highlighting the map to warn of lack of recon (other waze drivers) in the previous 10 or 20 minutes for the road ahead. I would feel much more secure especially regarding police.

  4. Street blacklist

    Unfortunately in some countries we face the reality of violence and sometimes the fastest route is not safe. So, my proposal is that we could have a "Street blacklist" in order to be able to add streets that we don't want to be in the route, preventing us to check all the route and try to find a new route every time or in a situation when we want a new route fast and during the route we notice that the navigation is going in the way that we don't want.

  5. obd2

    Poderiam adicionar um plugin no Waze para se conectar ao OBD2 para usar a velocidade e a quilometragem real do veiculo, quando dentro de um túnel, ou até quando cai a conexão com o GPS, para poder postar um aviso, já vi carro parado em rota dentro do túnel em local perigoso, existem varios programas de obd2 e os aparelhos bluetooth estão baratos.

  6. Meet with a friend

    Selecting a friend, Waze could show me the way to meet this friend (onine too), and could send my location to this friend every x minutes. Ideal for a meeting.

  7. Police on the move and what side

    Police on the move: I would put an option on the police spotter that shows moving/same side or moving/other side of the road. The app can see what direction/side the motorist is on, it would be a simple change to show that the police are moving on your side or other.

  8. התראה על רכב שמגיע ממול בכביש דו סיטרי

    היי, חשבתי על הוספת נתון שתאפשר התראה על רכב המגיע ממול בכביש דו סיטרי.
    לא פעם ולא פעמיים קורה לנו שאנחנו רוצים לעקוף רכב, אך לפעמים אין באפשרותינו יכולת לראות את הצד השני בשל ראות לקויה, תנאי כביש והדרך.
    מכיוון שאפליקציית ווייז עובדת על ג'יפיאס, אפשר לעשות אפשרות במפה שתראה את התנועה לא רק בנתיב שלך אלא בנתיב ממול.
    למרות שזמן תגובה של הווייז מהלווין למכשיר זה בערך 3 שניות, לפחות שתהיה התראה של כמה מאות מטרים, ככה אני מאמין שזה ימנע הרבה תאונות של אנשים שממהרים לעקוף ומסתכנים בתאונה.

  12. Ask for Road Assistance

    After helping some fellow drivers with changing tires (mostly women and old folks), I think it would be a nice feature if someone in distress can "raise" virtual hand, asking other drivers for help.

  14. Lock the chosen route

    When i choose a route, I want the option to just follow that without change! Sometimes waze changes the route because of allegedly less traffic route, but the reroute takes me longer & farther! Sometimes I just want to stick with the original route! Give us this choice!

  16. Sziasztok lenne néhány ötletem...

    Két hete Esztergomban voltam diáktalálkozón (Ferencesek), ott kaptam egy Waze matricát, az óta lelkes használó vagyok...sajnos azt tapasztalom, hogy a környékünkön (Zala megye Magyarország) sokan nem merik használni, attól félnek hogy valami átverés...Én a munkám miatt (területi képviselő) naponta 10-15 embernek mutatom be ezt a nagyon jó lehetőséget...viszont segítségre lenne szükségem: kellene valami, amit osztogathatok (matrica), és kellene egy jól működő androidos telefon, mert az enyém nagyon hamar lemerül...Ötleteim: mielőtt megszólal a hang, itt is legyen valami csengetés, mikor navigál...sokszor megijedek mikor hirtelen megszólal, jó lenne ha házszámra is lehetne keresni.
    hasznos lenne, ha mikor beírom a célpontot, láthatnám, az…

  17. Report Downgraded Traffic or No Traffic

    It would be great if we had the option to report No Traffic or Downgrade traffic patterns from Heavy, Moderate to No Traffic. There have been times where I would be traveling down a road that was reported as Heavy Traffic and I was not able to report that their was no traffic at all. I believe this type of feature would be helpful to Users when trying locate alternative routes. Thanks.

  18. Make alternative routes tappable directly on the map like GMaps.

    Hoping for tappable alternative routes on the map, which also shows time difference from the suggested route. This was a feature I liked a lot in GMaps.

  19. ממוצע זמן נסיעה בשעה נתונה ויום מוגדר

    הכוונה היא לאותם אנשים שעושים נסיעה חדשה, בעיקר בשעות הבוקר למקום חדש ואין להם שום מושג כיצד להערך לזה. לצורך העניין אם מחר יש לי פגישה במקום שאינו במסלול הקבוע שלי, איני יודעת כמה זמן נסיעה זה עשוי לקחת ובהתאם כל ההתארגנות ושעת התעוררות בבוקר משתנה.

    adding a visual mark to our Waze symbol so other users can see if we can help them, e.g. I'm carrying a portable battery booster, tire repair kit, cell phone charger, etc...
