Make selected item more clear in iPhone app
When selecting a report type the option selected only slightly changes in color/shade. My phone is mounted to the dash and in daylight I often cannot tell if I have selected an item. Make the shading or color change more dramatic for the selected item e.g. On Road & Construction. I have pressed the button a second time which deselects and this is also a problem

Hardware needed!!
Why don't you create a hardware for this amazing software? It would be great to have my nav systems ready when I get into my car, so don't have to put my phone on the holder every time I drive...

Parking lot prices
Add a way to report parking lot prices and search the cheaper ones, similar to the gas stations prices feature.

Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Stop auto refreshing and zooming back in when I am trying to zoom out and see all of the possible routes to my destination...
Stop auto refreshing and zooming back in when I am trying to zoom out and see all of the possible routes to my destination... Going from city to city there are different routes. I must zoom out to look at the path they take. ...but this app zooms back to my car location as soon as I zoom out. It makes picking the best route a blind guess instead of something better.

I'd like to move the car icon out of the middle of the map in order to see more of the upcoming route and less of what's already passed
I'd like to move the car icon out of the middle of the map in order to see more of the upcoming route and less of what's already passed. Specially when using Navigation since it the ETA status window takes up a reasonable portion of the screen. For instance: if I'm driving southeast my car icon should be displayed in the upper left hand corner (when using True North mode) but the same applies when in the relative mode. Thanks

Background alerting for police reports, hazards, etc, please.
Please provide full reporting capability including voting for existing reports when running in the background using banners that pop-up to foreground and then allow the app to come to foreground, by choice.

Default text/email contact
95% of my journeys that need someone to know when I'll arrive are me commuting from work. It would be great to have a 'speed dial' feature on the map screen to reduce the clicks to tell the missus when I'll be home.

Include an option in 'reports' for school buses. If you get behind a school bus on a long county road making stops, it can be a long delay

report generation to local authorities
It would be a great feature if a master report could be generated daily in major metropolitan areas indicating reports by Wazers regarding potholes, faulty traffic lights etc so that these can be repaired quickly. Alternatively, a program could be made avaliable to them wherby they can monitor selected reports witin their city and dispatch officers or repair crews to sort ouy the problems. This could also be a great Waze marketing tool.

Slow, buggy speech when using Bluetooth/Hands Free
Waze's speech while using bluetooth is filled with long awkward pauses. Often, the speech is unable to complete saying the direction before the next speech event needs to occur. The pauses between speech events are excessively long. This problem only manifests itself when connected to bluetooth audio.
Additionally, the speech is routed through "media player audio" instead of a voice command specific audio event. This means that the vehicle itself must be set to bluetooth audio music streaming rather than listening to the radio. Since the events turn on/off, the bluetooth media option is often unavailable and cannot be activated.

In Spanish; when on a highway or freeway, if I should exit right, Waze says "keep right" (manténgase a la derecha") instead of "exit right"
In Spanish; when on a highway or freeway, if I should exit right, Waze says "keep right" (manténgase a la derecha") instead of "exit right" ("salga a la derecha"). This is a cause of confusions and many times I stay on the freeway missing my exit. Waze should correct the voice instructions in Spanish

Allow report on the point after the traffic jam. It will increase the accuracy of redirection.
I experience waze selection which route sometime was wrong due to a lot of people report traffic jam but actually the jam just a short one. Example: very jam at LDP, waze still suggest use the route because too many users reported jam at NKVE but actually NKVE just a short distance jam. Thank you!
