  1. fewer touches to get navigation started

    it seems to take a lot of clicks (er, touches) to get navigation started.

    1) Enter (or speak) address
    2) Choose from list of addresses (even if there's only one address)
    3) Touch GO
    4) Touch GO (again, can be skipped)

    tough to do if the car is already in motion. Or so I hear. I would never be mucking with my phone or tablet while in motion.

  2. Enhance the "Prevent Auto-Lock" setting

    Enhance the "Prevent Auto-Lock" setting, so that you can have one setting for when it is plugged in and charging and another setting when not charging.

    This will allow for the option to let the phone to go into standby, if the phone is left on after turning the car off.

  4. Avoid stop signs! Sometimes is faster the paraller road, because it has a few stops signs!!

    I know that waze finds the fastest route, but sometime that street has a lot of Stop signs, and the parallel street doesnt have any, so is faster!! Maybe for a future you could add the stop signs to the maps!! For you to take note: In Costa Rica there isn't 4 stop ways or 3 stop way, in an intersection, here there is always a road who has the way, and the other has the stop sign. Srry for my english, isnt my native language!!

  5. user provided layout themes

    There are various requests for features of what Waze should/should not display on screen. It would be great if users could instead of just choosing a style, actually choose a (or create) a layout that another user has selected.

    Best option would be to provide the ablity to give shapes, and areas that can contain text. Eg.
    - Current speed (can then increase/decrease the speed display)
    - Average wazer speed on the current segment (so the potential speed limits could be shown)
    - Current road name
    - Text/images for popups
    - Destination ETA
    - Destination time
    - Destination name
    -…

  8. Ask user on which street he is if GPS accuracy insufficient to determinate it automatically

    Sometimes in the beginning of driving or if you driving differently from Wase suggestion Waze can lock on wrong street, if it is two close streets inside GPS accuracy region. I think it will be good if Wase will ask on which street you are exactly if it detects that GPS accuracy is insufficient to determinate it automatically.

  9. mapless mode

    how about a screen that just displays the speed and any nearby alerts (range user selectable) for when we're just driving and don't need the GPS? This could cut down on data (and battery) usage by not fetching maps, but still let us provide data back to the system.

  10. Hide notification bar in Android

    Hiding the Notification bar would give a little more screen real estate, but the big deal here is that newer phones have AMOLED screens which can suffer from burn-in, and the notification bar in Android with the screen turned way up while navigating for hours is surely going to cause this. Can we PLEASE hide the notification bar so it doesn't damage our screens? Nexus One, Desire, Incredible, likely others will all be possibly impacted by this.

    this will not solve the issue with these screens, as waze has its own bar (right below the notifications bar) which will not be removed. So we need to think of a better solution that will prevent the burn-in, but hiding the notifications bar will not help.

  11. A routing option which avoids locations where Flock cameras are installed

    Deflock.org provides every location of installed flock cameras. I would like to see a routing option which would allow users to circumvent these cameras when possible by routing directions that avoid their locations.

  16. Add more stops would be nice

    There is no option to add multiple stops, it would be really nice to have this feature on my navigation. In this way, I won't need to switch to other maps app

  17. Look both ways when a road ends at a two-way road and you turn right

    When driving on a road that ends in a two-lane road and you want to turn right, you usually only look to the left to see if a vehicle is approaching.
    I think that in these cases, Waze should give a voice warning to check visually in both directions.
    It may happen that on the right side a vehicle is overtaking another and the driver is doing so on the opposite lane, the lane you intend to enter.
    The danger can increase if visibility is poor due to vegetation or other objects.

  18. Add vehicle’s height

    Hi
    I think that adding a feature to your waze account where you can choose your car height would help you by driving in adjusted roads and driving eventually in a more accurated path

  19. Adding an exemption pass for Blackwall and Silvertown tunnels When you have disable badge

    When you have a disable badge you can apply for congestion charge exemption. This is already a pass on the app you can add. However, this also allows you to go through Blackwall tunnel and Silvertown tunnel for free. So adding this exception should be updated. Since it always defaults to going over dartford bridge.
