  1. Instead of during phone call mute yes/no, offer more options: no muting, mute notifications, shortened directions, audible signal, mute all

    Instead of during phone call mute yes/no, offer more options:
    * no muting
    * mute notifications (but offer normal driving directions)
    * shorten directions (no TTS, no and then...)
    * audible signal only (ring light bell when maneuver is upcoming and stronger bell when maneuver must be made)
    * mute all

    This will allow the driver to choose to get some form of navigation during phone calls, but which is still less intrusive to the phone call than usual.

  3. 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.

  4. sugestão de alerta: fogo/fumaça na rodovia

    Alerta de fogo/fumaça na rodovia é muito útil, pois ocorrem diversos acidentes com engavetamentos nestas condições e é uma situação infelizmente cada vez mais comum no período da seca.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  8. Breadcrumbs

    I still have to use my Garmin gps with breadcrumbs trail enabled so I can quickly backtrack out of neighborhoods. It would be great if Waze would step up and make this option available so we can trash our Garmins.

  9. 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.

  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. Message a license plate

    Hi there. How about if users register their license plates and so we could send "car-to-car" messages?! I see lights left turned on, open cars in parking lots, broken lights etc and with a feature like that I could tell the owner by "messaging his/her car", regardless any other info. Nice, huh?!

  18. Get german gas prices from the "Markttransparenzzentrale"

    In Germany gas stations are required to instantly upload changed prices to an authority called Markttransparenzzentrale, which provides an API for apps to get them and show the user current prices. It would be great if Waze could use this information instead of the almost always heavily outdated and useless user reports.

  20. Directions alert

    The “audio alert” given by the program proves to be very punctual when travelling in town or small villages, as the alerts are given with sufficient anticipation.
    Instead I believe the alerting system become less effective on highways or expressways, where the speed of the vehicle is much higher and the driver’s reaction to further maneuvers is evidently reduced. There is in fact no “preliminary” alert of the subsequent step to be taken, such as “You exit will be at 1000 meters”; this preliminary alert would give, in my opinion, a sort of range of the “distance” for the future…
