  1. Alerts based on time

    You should calculate how far or how long a Alert stays on the screen based on your speed because if something is a mile away and you're traveling miles an hour config one hour to get to especially if the traffic jam so if you could display something which is like a minute away they sometime be about the much better use of the screen space because something is staying there

  4. "Friend Driving" Notification Should Be Adjustable Based On Distance

    I don't need Waze to tell me that my friends in New York City or Miami are driving when I am in Toronto, Canada (unless, I guess, if they have set a route to come to Toronto). Waze should allow us to specify how far away a friend can be that it will notify us of the fact that they're driving.

  5. Popup messages for multiple road reports

    On the way home tonight, Waze alerted me to several road problems ahead (police, stopped vehicles, etc.). The reports were in such close succession (less than a mile apart) that the popup message for the first report was still on screen when the popup message for the second report appeared. Unfortunately, the second popup was on top so I could no longer see any information about the first report. When displaying multiple popup messages simultaneously, Waze should layer them such that the hazard in closest proximity to you is on top, followed by the next closest, and so on. This…

  6. "Hazard on shoulder" menu should include "Road crew"

    In Massachusetts, road/highway cleanup crews on are always accompanied by a state police or sheriff's van. I would like to report the location of a road crew without having to tag it as a "vehicle stopped on shoulder" or "police visible" because neither of these options is very accurate. Can a "road crew" option please be added to the "Hazard on shoulder" menu?

  7. Flash directions section of the screen when approaching turn

    When approaching a turn flash the directions section of the screen a few times. This allows for users that use waze with the volume down but can still alert them to an approaching turn by getting their attention.

    During long distance travel "Add a Stop" feature spreads options (eg cafe) too widely apart without asking for more input as to which side of travel this Added Stop would be searched for.

    I have done long routes in the past and half of the Stops that it finds are near my end point far in the distance and unnecessary for what I'm looking for at the time.

    So an additional question "Close, or futher down" OR "Within the next _miles or _ minutes " would get better results for folks looking for a good stop either now or…

  9. Traffic cleared button

    I suggest you guys to add a traffic clear button, cause sometimes i have noticed that even if the actual route is clear, waze will show standstill traffic because of previous outdated reports.

  11. Add motorcycle icons for sports bike and cruise

    There is an icon for motorcycle that looks like a scooter. It would be cool to add different ones for sport bike and cruiser just like there are icons for various car types.

  14. Display caller id for incoming calls

    I'd like too see the caller id of an incoming call displayed somewhere while running waze. At this point that's about the only weakness I find. Waze needs to maintain basic phone function.

  15. Add a setting to eliminate events

    There is a setting to limit the number of events to On route only, 5 miles, 10 miles, etc, but there is no way to completely eliminate event pop ups. This is very annoying as I use my phone to listen to music and every time I get a n event pop up, the music stops for a few seconds. Please create and option to have no event pop ups.

    Thank you.

  17. Why not believe me 1st time I report road closed? Why send me a 2nd time the same way?

    You guys really sucked today. Reported exact same road closure 4 days ago after being 20 mins late bc WAZE didn't know. Now today WAZE sends me same way again!!!!! You guys are jerks for not believing me 1st time. I told you it was RR XING construction project. Why not look it up after I report it 1st time so you know how long to leave closure in place??? I shouldn't have to deal w same closure I reported already to you a 2nd time.

  18. Semaphores

    Waze could have an algorithm to detect where are the semaphores in the city, and keep how long they take to open, to avoid the semaphores that take longer.
    There are some semaphores in São Paulo that take too long to open. It would be very useful to avoid them.

  19. Keep same web link when sharing via (follow my drive)

    If like waze to be able to either allow for a vanity web address unique to each Wazer when they select to share their drive for people to follow their progress via the web or at least keep the web address the same for a set number of hours. If I share my drive and close Waze at anytime during my drive and reopen it, I then have to share my drive all over again with a different URL. If you allow the ability to create a vanity URL with the wazers username it would be easier though. Then they…

  20. Allow for Swipe gesture to be customizable

    The current swipe gesture only allows for traffic to be reported. However, I run across 'car on the shoulder' more often than traffic. Allowing individuals to customize the swipe gesture would allow Waze to be tailored to the surroundings of the individual.
