Reporting Long Light Cycles
I recently sat at a left turn signal for 4 or 5 cycles. I wanted to report a LONG light so others didn't try to turn there too. Currently I cannot do that.

Mute voice guidance near home/work
Please have an option to mute the voice guidance in a radius of [X] distance from my home, and/or from work. Alerts should not be muted by this setting.
It's annoying that I have to listen to voice guidance near my home -- I know how to get from my house to the main road, thank you very much! But turning the voice off and on again during the drive (during every drive!) is a nuisance and a safety risk.

Reduce FPS and disable animations to save battery
Some navigation apps save battery by refreshing less often, except around instructions points (ie. turns, exits, etc.). When the user is supposed to simply follow the road for a long time, the refresh rate could be as low as once every 5 seconds.
Waze could also offer an option to disable transition effects (smooth rotation around current position, streets fade in and out, menu animations, etc.).

Allow the "Stacking" of alerts on the display
As an example, you are driving along and an alert for the police ahead pops up. You continue on but before you reach the place where the police are supposed to be where you can confirm the presence or advise them not present another alert of some other kind pops up. Now you cannot comment on the first alert. The alerts should stack so the closest one is displayed at the top of the stack

Allow me to delete the hazard "Vehicle stopped on shoulder" without deleting all hazards
You need to be able to split which road hazards you want or don't want. I would kill to be able to stop being told about a vehicle on the shoulder but still be able to know about other hazards. Seriously, if the vehicle is on the shoulder it isn't a hazard.

Navigation: option to avoid cobblestone, brick streets. This would be very appreciated by car drivers, motorcyclists. Android user.
I hate it when I get navigated down a cobblestone or brick street. You have to crawl along so your teeth don't fall out. I'd rather take a longer route than drive over these streets here in Seattle.

Under Reporting/Police - Rather than 2 options visible and invisible, how about one for pacing or rolling too
Allow users to say a police car is traveling along the highway/road rather than pinning it to one location.

Modify Spoken Road
On some roads the application announces "N" or "S" or "E" or "W" instead of North, South, East and West. As an example: "Take NJ Turnpike N Cars Only towards ...."

How about moving the "add friends" icon so that it doesn't cover the speedometer display?
Either move the add friends icon to another part of the display, or make it an option to shut it off. Covering the speedometer makes it totally useless.

Add a report feature for disaster reporting so emergency responders have real time info
In today's Napa earthquake, it took many hours for emergency responders to collect, report and analyze data, do triage, etc. let the crowd report details of disaster events (type, severity, help requested, etc) and generate dashboards for emergency responders to see a summary and details of the data

Allow update of gas prices to 3 decimals
It is a mistake to assume that all gas prices end in 9/10. Gas in Canada is sold not in dollars, but in cents. For example, gas may be listed at 124.9. Wazers can correctly update it to 1.249. But if that price is 125.0, the closest it can be updated to is 124.9. Another Wazer may see that as incorrect and change it to 125.9 It is not at all uncommon to find gas with prices ending in .4, .5, even .0.
I have witnessed long lineups at competing pumps where one station is charging 3/10 of a cent…2 votes
