  1. lessen # of waze icons on densely populated maps

    Navigating Portland, Oregon is presently impossible for a newcomer. There are too many Waze driver icons, traffic flow icons, etc to be able to read street names and see where I need to go.
    The software priorities should be street names and navigation, not seeing a bunch of pink happy faces.

    I finally stopped using this app when I go to Portland in rush hour because it is not useful.

  2. display a welcome to [state] and any pertinent change in road laws

    I like to be welcomed and some states don't have the same seat belt laws or disallow radar detectors. For anything i don't expect a disclaimer would be welcome

  5. Please tell us why you're down!

    Please provide a Status page like an ISP would provide -- right now you guys have not been working for many days* (weeks?!) now, with people asking what the hell is going on all over the web, and I can't find a single response from you guys anywhere!

    *"Searching for network..."; can't connect to server issue (which seemed to happen to a lot of people back in Dec 2013 too).

    Is there any plan to fix this AT ALL?!!!

  6. I would like to know when a bicycle or a motorbike is at a close distance from me, treated as a hazard

    When I ride my bike I would like to let Waze know that I am a hazard to other drivers. Other drivers would be warned when I am close to them. Alternatively, as a car driver, I would like to be able to activate a mode that warns me about bicycles and motorcycles. I think this idea would reduce the number of accidents involving bicycles and motorbikes. This can be extended to other vehicles on the road like tractors, oversized transport vehicles...

  7. Jeepers do it on the road too!

    I'd love to see a Wrangler icon. Granted, the Porsche is cool but can it go off road?

  8. Integrated Phone dialer l

    Often times when Waze is running and you need to make a call, you would have to open the phone app, finish the call and again open Waze to resume the navigation. It would be immensely helpful if we had a fully integrated dialer that can be used to make calls in the context of the Waze app.

  10. Waze shouldn't remove the old route while it is recalculating a new one

    Sometimes, when I'm driving and using Waze, it identifies me in another street (crossroads, frequently). With that, it starts a new route, show me the RECALCULATING animation and remove the old route.
    The problem is: if the place that it happens, it doesn't have internet connection, I run out the last route and the new one.
    The perfect way, in this case, would be if Waze removes the old route ONLY AFTER get the new one.
    Thanks.

  13. Navigation voice settings should be persistent.

    More often than not, I know where I'm going, but would like to know about traffic incidents/alerts. As such I like to use waze in alerts only mode. However, every so often, waze will decide that it will turn itself back to full voice navigation even though I did not select that. I do not know what triggers it, but it does continue to happen. Just when I think it's going to stay, the settings get switched. It's quite annoying that it can't keep a setting.

  15. Add the "Premium" type of gas, so we can update/inform the price of that too.

    Here in Brazil we have the "Premium" type of gas too. Adding this type of gas would be nice, so we could track prices for it.

  16. add option to disable traffic based routing

    When routing, waze often attempts to route around traffic. Waze is used occasionally for just the first part of a journey (navigating a downtown area, for example) and I find it selecting a completely different route every time I use it because it attempts to route around the traffic at work.

    Another example is that during extremely heavy traffic in a snowstorm, waze had me exiting at every freeway exit and then entering the freeway again, simply because the freeway exits had little traffic on them compared to the freeway itself.

    Because of this, there should be a simpler routing…
