  1. Variable distance until off-ramp

    When on a 4, 5, or 6 lane highway, traveling at highway speeds in the left lane, in moderate or congested traffic in the left lane, I really need more than 1 mile notice of an offramp. So it'd be nice if either (a) the distance to a turn was related to speed (e.g., at 25 miles an hour, a mile notice is good, but at 65 miles an hour a three mile notice would be better) AND/OR (b) users having the ability to set the distance that they want turn-notices to be announced.

  4. Don't Record Client Tracks within Origin/Dest Zone

    As a new wazer and getting into editing I noticed several "map problems" and new roads caused by entering/exiting parking lot or building structures.

    Current work around is to add Parking POIs or add the parking lot roads as road type parking.

    I believe this could be alleviated by simply not having Waze client record or "count" the GPS track within a set distance from Origin (time device first plugged in or new navigation started) and Destination (device turned off or navigation stopped)

    I would recommend a distance of about 100 yards.

    This should help cut down on the extra…

  5. Different preferences while navigating

    There are several settings that I want to change according to whether or not I am navigating to a destination. Please give up options like "on when navigating, off when not navigating" in addition to the existing "on"/"off" options.

    For example, I should be able to make the following settings:

    North Up when not navigating; actual or desired travel direction up when
    navigating;

    2D view when not navigating; 3D view when navigating;

    Auto zoom off when not navigation; Auto zoom by distance when navigating.

  6. Show small roads in rural areas

    The Waze client, and also the "live map" on the web site, hides smaller roads as you zoom out. This is fine in cities where there are many roads. However, in rural areas, the small roads are simetimes the only roads, and if they are hidden then the map can appear completely blank.

    I suggest changing to an algorithm that takes the amount of clutter into account. Something like "first disply the major highways; if the screen is not yet too cluttered then also display the minor highways; if the screen is not yet too cluttered then also display the…

  7. Integrate with cobra iRadar

    Cobra has a radar detector that works with android and iphone. They upload/download radar locations for their own community. There may be an opportunity for the two companies to work together, and integrate with each other. Imagine: turn by turn nav, automatic traffic condition updates, user reported feedback of accidents and automatic reports of police radar points all in one cohesive application.

  9. The Catalan voice is not good enough

    It is great to have Catalan as an option in the iPhone client (thanks!!) but the voice used is not good, as it mispronounces some sounds. The voice has a strong Spanish accent.

  13. re-organize and add menu items

    The Menu Settings are really a pain !
    Very difficult to find the option you want to change. Ex : "Show on Map" is in "Advanced" menu but there is a "Map" menu just next to "Advanced".

    Very weird !!!

  20. Add the possiblility to use a bluetooth handsfree device

    In most of cars there is a telephone hands-free Bluetooth system integrated with the car audio system; it would be great to have the voice message from waze client to go to the Audio system via Bluetooth connection.
