Startup sequence is misarranged; initial direction; use accelerometer; easier access to 2d map
I'll describe the problem by describing my experience. Often I'm in a hurry to get directions and go. I start Waze and there's a relatively long wait (4 sec) for the splash screen to pass--understandable, but still a minor annoyance. Then I just want to get to Navigate so I can get my route. But Waze is busy drawing the map for 2-3 sec, which I don't need to see right now. At last I get to Navigate. I select my destination from my favorites and the machine starts route-searching.
Only at this point does Waze decide to display a…

Is there a Family Locator function?
Is there a Family Locator function? Like if your family member is a waze user, and for privacy they'll let your phone see their location, and you can be guided to their location by the gps?

Police traffic stop - recording speed
I would like to see an action that is a button always on the app screen displayed that allows you to capture speed and other information about your location, etc., when you are being pulled over by a police for speeding. Allow the user's to review the data at stop point to know their speeds, lets say 5 minutes prior to pressing the ticket button. Also, email the data to the user's email.

Improve the Waze iPhone API
Improve the Waze iPhone API. Currently only the features are available using he waze:// api:
http://www.waze.com/dev/documentation/The new google maps app has much much more capability:
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios/urlschemeI would love to be able to create a one tap navigate using waze link to all of my contacts in my address book. I can't do this currently because only queries are possible, plus the queries can't default to a specific search, further you can't navigate to a long/lat. for address which aren't known to waze... These would be very helpful!

Allow the user to select their preferred default search
This should be easy to add to the Waze iPhone app. All I want is a user selectable default search setting. I'm usually searching for an address when I use waze and it defaults to my contacts always which is annoying. Others might prefer yelp, or contacts, whatever.

Toll Road prompt
After selecting the destination, Waze should prompt (as his famous brother Tom does) if toll roads should be allowed or not. In this way I could leave the option "Toll Roads" unchecked (it should be also removed) and before each journey I can choose depending on the case which route to follow...
(please forgive language mistakes :D )

Navigation enhancement
For navigation when you type in address that you have inputed before there should be a way of selecting it (auto fill) such as the mapquest iphone app instead of the need to type the whole thing over again.

Pop ups and statistics
It will be very appreciated to have pop ups when waze is not on the main screen. For example, when i phone, waze app is in minor and i don't know if there are warnings soon... It will be great to have a pop up when a warning is coming in the next 500m and waze is in minor.
I m using the app very often. It will be fun to have personal statistics like i prevent for traffic, cops,...
Thanks Waze. Keep innovating and help us!1 vote -
Be able to view a summary list of delays and congestion
Have a menu option to be able to view at a glance the delays and congestion on your route. Whilst it's ok to see there are delays on the "Go" screen you can't easily tell where they are or how they will affect you.

Add a Help feature for people that are in trouble
Add a feature, where if a different wazer needs help, changing a tire, or needs any other kind of help, they should be able to report it on the map, so that anyone else in the route could stop by and help them.

Advertise the website on the app! I didn't try and log into Waze until I had a problem.
This would be great for Waze and Waze users. I had no idea how much control and input I had with regards to the Waze. This is good to know. I also had no clue how to edit the maps. Until I logged on here and noticed I had to do it myself. Make this be KNOWN on the app. So many more people would interact on here and help fix maps!

Group vs Individual points
Unless someone is driving 120 miles an hour 24 hours a day 7 days week it is impossible to get 100,000 points. Obviously multiple are signing into one account. Could Waze either stop this practice or distinguish group vs individual top wazer
