  2. Light Mode for Low End Devices

    Everyone loves to use waze, but some people are not able to because the app may not work properly on some devices with lower end specs.

    The app has evolved to a point where it requires more RAM and better processing power to accommodate all the features it relies on.

    Of course, some animations and other visual stuff can be turned off or at least toned down so they impact less the RAM and CPU power.

    My request is that a option that makes the app consume less resources be added, so everyone can enjoy and contribute with the community.

  3. Route change warning due to traffic or closure

    It would be nice to get a warning of when a route is changed from the original route, especially taking local roads instead of freeway due to traffic or closure. I could see a few traffic pins before navigating, but usually it's not a big deal because it's typically a minor slowdown. At times, there are no pins before navigating because the route is different than normal. People are accustomed to their daily routine route that it can cause temporary confusion on why the route is changed.

  4. End traffic jam automatically

    Have Waze detect when you've been traveling close to the speed limit for a while and mark the point you starting driving faster as the end of the traffic jam.

  5. Yellow Box Junction Cameras

    TLDR Version: At the moment on Waze you can only report either speed cameras, red light cameras or fake cameras, having a 'yellow box junction' camera would be a logical and great addition imho.

    Non TLDR Version: Yellow box junction cameras drive me nuts (for those not UK based these are cameras that make sure yellow box junctions - ie boxes marked on the road to stop drivers stopping at the entrance to a side junction and blocking it), mainly because not all yellow boxes are enforced with cameras (so drivers from all angles enter it and the only way…

  7. Award points for stopping at or using advertisers.

    Maybe 10 to 20 points for buying gas or eating a burger at an advertisers location. Could be tied to a code you have to enter for the points which you get when you use the location. Might be a big plus for advertisers ie feedback on advertising dollars spent.

  8. safe routes

    Dear,
    I write them because I love the app, however when I use the app at night, I would like it to include safe routes, I know that for you may sound strange, but in my country there are routes that during the night in certain points of the city is Extremely dangerous to go through assaults, robberies or kidnappings. It would be interesting to be able to work on creating safer but less efficient routes alternatives when you deem it convenient.

    I hope you like my idea and I love working on it.
    Best regards.

    Metallurgical engineer.

  9. Sinalização para "área perigosa" / Dangerous área alert

    Portuguese: Seria importante ter um sinal de alerta para áreas perigosas ou de alta criminalidade aqui no Brasil. Realmente é um recurso muito importante.

    English: It would be really important to have an alert such as "dangerous area ", for areas with hogh number of criminality, here in Brazil.

  11. Control real de FAVORITOS

    Si bien hay ideas similares en el foro, planteo lo siguiente:

    Los favoritos deberían ser administrados, ordenados en un menú Favoritos de las siguientes formas:

    • Personalizado (Primero los que el wazers prefiera, uno ordena sus favoritos de la forma que necesite (existente))
    • Alfabético (primero los favoritos con número o letra A)
    • Orden de ingreso (Primero los ingresados recientemente, considerar la fecha de ingreso al listado del más nuevo al más antiguo)
    • Orden más frecuente (primero en la lista el destino más frecuente)
    • Orden más reciente (primero en la lista los destinos más recientes)

    Esto que se vea en pestañas dentro…

  12. Police warning should be Speed dependant

    Police warnings should be either speed or road type dependant. There is no point warning me about police speed trap 200 yards ahead when their optical devices can see about one mile. I think if this was added it would be perfect app.

  13. you need to add a map button on the map to enable or disable freeway routing. often, a freeway will not be my best route, this would help

    an onscreen button is needed to change from freeways to avoid freeways. Often, I would like to change enroute from freeway to surface roads and it takes many steps to do so. one button to change on or off onscreen would be a big help

  15. En lugar de informar Dónde están los policías no sería mejor informar a dónde están asaltando los ladrones

    Como sugerencia sería mejor que en lugar de informar Dónde se encuentran los policías deberían de advertir a la ciudadanía en qué parte están asaltando los ladrones.

  16. "Workers on road side"

    Can you add a "workers on side of road" choice under "hazard"? Often times when I'm driving I see workers on the side of the road mowing grass or something like that. I would like to have the ability to warn other drivers that there are people in close proximity to the road / work going on that's not exactly on the road.

  17. Speed limit/autovelox notification when screen off

    It would be great to have a speed limit notification and autovelox with a big pop up (like the speed limit signal 50 km/h) even when the screen is off. Often when the smartphone is connected with bluetooth I cannot hear the speed limit alarm. I'll be always aware of the speed limit and autovelox on my route saving battery!

  18. Offer way for users to edit/correct/identify false reports OR...

    Have a way for users to contest a traffic notice entered by other users. Here in Los Angeles we use a lot of residential streets, especially to get through the canyons. Lately, residents on smaller streets have been adding fake/erroneous notices such as hazards (e.g., construction) or road closures to try to get drivers to take other routes. It would be great if Waze had one of three options: users can delete false reports, users can comment on reports for all users to see (not just the person who reported the issue), or a thumbs down feature so that other…
