  3. On this waze version, a new icon ( add friends...) located on the close to bottom right of the screen partially hides the speed meter.

    Either get rid of this almost useless icon or at least move it up in such a way it does not overlap the speed indicator

  4. add a POTUS alert

    Whenever the President or Vice president are in town the motorcade creates traffic. Add an alert using planned roads that maybe affected by the local motorcade presence.

  7. Reporting of traffic jams in filter lanes or turning lanes

    Hi, many times while driving on the highway I would pass a filter lane or turning lane at a traffic light that is extremely long. I would like to be able to report this so other users who might be coming up to the turning lane would know its present status and can decide if they want to continue there or go to another turn off. Currently, I can only flag whether there is traffic on the "main road" that I am traveling on.

  8. The target for the "Yes" and "No" buttons needs to be larger.

    When you're asking me to confirm where I'm going on a navigation you have the Yes/No buttons far too close to the edge. And when you barely miss the Yes/No buttons it cancels the navigation entirely. I'm not going to be super accurate on my tap locations when I'm operating a vehicle. Make the buttons bigger and/or move them away from the edge of that popup. Otherwise I will get distracted even more when I have to start up the navigation again.

  9. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  14. 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

  15. 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.

  20. 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.
