Making marking spots more easily
I live in Taipei, Taiwan. Information in Waze around Taipei is much less. I often see many important places not shown in Waze map, such as convenient stores and parking space. If we can mark it on map more easily, we can improve map in Taipei more quickly.

Listening to Downcast and using Waze
Has anyone else experienced this? When using Waze and also listening to a podcast using the Downcast app, after arriving at the destination and then starting my next journey, I am no longer able to listen to the podcast. I have arrived at my destination and I stopped navigation. When I get back into the car and i resume listening to the podcast, i enter my next destination on Waze. Suddenly I am no longer able to listen to the podcast simultaneously.

Dash cam
Add dash cam features in background, auto record when car is moving, just enable feature and everything runs in background. Similar to app called witness. Record 10 segments, 6min each. Store date,time and GPS. Thought of this after learning that every car in Russia has a dash cam (all those meteor recordings).
583 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Default app for car dock action
When I put my Galaxy S3 in my car dock android automatically launches a default app. My only two choices are Google S Voice, Google navigation app or the Verizon navigation app. I want to chose Waze. Please make it an option to be launched when a phone is put in a car dock.

The startup / home / first screen should be a screen with favorite / recent destinations instead of the map
Each time I open Waze, it is to navigate to a destination.
So the startup / home / first screen should be a screen with destination instead of the map.2 votes -
More info in notification text (e.g. ETA, distance to destination, etc.)
A lot of time I have waze in the background and just listen for audio reports of hazards, etc. However, I also like to know my ETA. I think it would be useful to put the ETA, and perhaps other information, in the persistent Android notification. Right now it just says "waze ... return to waze" which isn't really useful. If the ETA were in the notification, I could check it without having to open the app, and then go back to whatever else I was looking at.

Two way or One way scheduled
Here in Brasiília, DF, Brazil, we have some streets that are two way... but, at rush hours it's turned to one way only for a couple of hours.
Also we have another big one that is closed on sundays or holidays.
So, would be interesting to have some editor function to define the schedule of that street... because waze always route us to them and for tourists, that's sucks...
Thank you guys, great job!

Option to have the "menu" and "report" buttons to be invisible so as not to have a burn in ghost image of the buttons on screen.
The screen is usually ON through out the duration of driving. The MENU and REPORT buttons have a high likelihood to be "burned in" screen, creating a "permanent" ghost image.
Having the option to replace it with invisible hotspots (frequent users will know where to touch anyway) will minimize this because of moving images.
AMOLED screens are fairly prone to "burn in"

Distance units
The Waze client appears to use three types of unit for distance reporting, miles, decimal fractions of miles and feet.
In the UK we generally use two units for road distance, miles and yards. We do not measure road distance in feet, I measure the size of my bedroom in feet but not the length of my road.
Also "point one miles" doesn't mean a lot to me or many other people I'd imagine, not to mention that it is shockingly poor grammar.
Please can we have a UK units option, that supports miles, half a mile and yards. Thank…

expose intents
for all clients expose an API
for Android expose:
• intents
• broadcast intents
• application shortcutsfor the slightly savvier user this allows accelerated navigation by macro (Tasker, Llama, OmniDroid, et al)
API allows for similar macro- or automation apps on iOS (ipad, iPhone), windows mobile, other platforms surely
instead of
° load waze
° click or swipe to open navigate to UI
° search for address
° select match
° go
° pick routethe macro app could accomplish this in
ONE click
this is employing merely one of a panoply of time saving waze measures

Please offer an ad-free version of Waze.
I'm pretty sick of seeing Taco Bells, Ramada Inns, and Smart Water pop up on my map. I'd pay up to $5 for a version of Waze without advertisements.
