Add option for "No Traffic" and "Light Traffic"; rather than only "Moderate", "Heavy" or "Standstill".

Pause bei der Eingabe
Wenn eine bereits gesuchte Adresse genommen wird, startet die Navigation sofort. Besser wäre eine Möglichkeit dann die entweder ändern zu können - zB die Hausnummer oder GO zu tippen

Keep Waze on top of Lock Screen
This is an option to keep waze on top of the lock screen because I shut the screen off during my commute to save battery and when I press the button to turn it on, it still requires me to unlock my phone before getting back to the Waze navigation screen
95 votesPlease use battery saver mode for such cases. It won’t drain your battery that much, while you’ll still be able to access Waze by a single tap on screen.

I often get speed flashed with waze because unlike Coyote, the danger zone is not beeping noise when you are above the speed
Put in place a permanent noise alert while we are above the speed in a danger zone.

Toll roads
If user could use settings to set something like "use toll roads if it shortens the time on the road for at least XX minutes" or "use toll road if fuel economy if more then $XX". Waze gives us multiple routs from A to B, sometimes it is better to use toll road, sometimes it cuts only about 5-6 minutes from the trip (or less) - still not the reason to use toll road, too expensive for this outcome. But sometimes toll road is way better, so we don't want to forbid waze to suggest us toll-roads. I think you…

the map doesn't display properly for ETA maps for long drives.
the map doesn't display properly for ETA maps for long drives. I can see the whole map for a route under an hour (not sure of distance, assume average highway speeds), but the map glitches and zooms in on IDK what when I watch someone do a drive of over 250 miles.

Keep the last 5 min of your travel speed data so you can see if a cop is "inflating" your speed to give you a more expensive ticket.
Keep a rolling 5 minutes of your travel speed.

Dim the Screen to Stop Screen Burn In
Waze is great but it loves to burn images of the buttons into my phone screen. A dimming option when not in use would save battery and stop this burning problem.
19 votesThank you for your suggestion!
The Report button was designed to be noticed while blending in and it’s important to keep it as is.
However, we will revisit this idea when working on Dark mode, in the future. Furthermore, since this is a physical issue that OLED phones suffer from in different apps, we recommend to use Battery Saver mode to allow your display some rest from bright colors that might lead to this dysfunction.

(Re)-Add a Flemish Voice
Apparently Google has removed Ellen (Flemish) voice because she was previously provided through Nuance. Google currently doesn't own/have a Flemish voice. Since Waze is owned by google this means we currently don't have a Flemish voice. So I ask if you guys could please ask for our flemish voice back. She is really missed :( FLEMISH ≠ DUTCH

How about some real application support?
Here's an idea... how about offering some actual support for problems not addressed in the FAQ and canned responses?
All of my points, accomplishments, rank, etc. were lost when I replaced my phone, and I've been trying for a month to get help, to no avail.
My emails to waze.cases got a canned response with a case number (1-9525000006984), and instructions to reply if the problem persists. Well, it persists and my replies continue to go unanswered.
For an app whose value is based largely on its community of users, it's very discouraging to not be able to get help.…

Popular spot search / finding by number of people who choose it as a destination.
When I choose a destination, The app shows me how many people have chosen this place as a their destination ( in a last hour - for example ) .
So you can appreciate how busy / occupied the place
and I could choose if I want to get there.For example on Saturday I want to travel with
children to the ZOO and i see that 1000
users are choose the place as their destination, it gives me an idea how busy is the place .....There is possible to make popularity index (to see
how the place popular)…7 votes -

ICONO ESPECIAL QUE INDIQUE OPERATIVOS POLICIALES EN PERÚ
Buen día, les escribo desde Lima – Perú, quiero comentarles que en Lima existen los denominados OPERATIVOS POLICIALES, que consisten en que un grupo de policías, se ponen a un lado de la vía (cualquier vía),
Y detienen a todos los vehículos con la finalidad de pedirles todos los documentos del carro y personales, de faltar alguno piden plata, en ese sentido generan mucho tráfico y demora a los conductores, en ese sentido, a fin de evitar estos operativos policiales muy frecuentes, tengo la idea de que ustedes puedan desarrollar un ícono que consista solamente en OPERATIVO POLICIAL de control,…4 votes -
I am a daily user of the waze app. It is great!! I am interested to know when you will have it work on the Apple Watch.
I have used the Maps app on the iPhone recently that coordinated with my Apple Watch and it was a nice combination. My watch would vibrate when the next turn was going to happen and also show on my watch for a quick glance.
30 votesThank you for your suggestion! We are currently not planning on adding Apple Watch support.
