Set location of a "Report" for where you press the Icon that displays the reports instead of setting it where you are when you select send
I like to participate in Waze to help others as they've helped me, but often don't see things to report until I'm already on top of it. (i.e. speed trap, hazard, etc.) I've found that the location based on my selection is placed far further on the map from the actual occurrence by time I select the remaining options and hit "Send". As the last thing I want to be doing while traffic is maneuvering and breaking is seeing which additional selections need to be made to make sure I select correctly, it would be nice if selecting the "Report"…

add friend by username
I would like to add friends by their waze username. As a long time adapter of waze, I always found it odd that I couldn't add friends by username. WIth social media being so open, there are still users who feel waze does not need to know their phone number and shares the drive just fine through email and text messages. It is unfair to only allow people to connect by giving up personal information or using social media. A person's location is private information and should be allowed a more private way to share it if needed.

Pop-ups on top of pop-ups
Sometimes, especially during rush hour, I receive several pop-ups in a short period of time but when I clear the visible pop-up, thumbs up or not there, the previous pop-ups disappear. All pop-ups received should remain until either cleared or they time-out.

waze over wifi
Please allow Waze to connect to the internet over wifi. I have a 7 inch wireless only tablet that is much easier to see than my cell phone. I can tether my tablet to my cell phone (hotspot) and browse the internet - Why can't I do the same with Waze?

Use Waze to help fight traffic by including tips encouraging the Zipper Merge (merging every other car), not rubber necking, etc.
It seems like a lot of people don't know how to merge. So you're forced to wait for a gap or force your way into a lane. Waze could be very helpful to build better driving habits. These tips could be sent via message or when the app is opened.

When adding a hazzard, at what point in the process does the map "fix" the location? When I click on "Hazard"? When I click on "Shoulder"?

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

Hazard nearby voice update
It should state if hazard is on road or on shoulder as most shoulder hazards are not serious as on road hazards.

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.

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.
