  1. Automatically sleep Waze when disconnecting from CarPlay

    Hi, can an option be added to automatically put Waze to sleep after unplugging it from CarPlay? I don't need Waze to remain active once I've reached my destination, and when I get back into my car I usually start it manually myself.

  2. Setting to turn off big purple road names

    Many times these "new" big purple road names block the map at intersections and make it difficult to know if you are turning onto the correct street.

  3. Uso obrigatório de farol baixo em rodovias

    Além de um alerta via popup seria legal se o(a) assistente falasse "Você está entrando em uma rodovia, lembre-se de ligar o farol baixo!" Um aviso igual é com radar (Radar reportado à frente!)

  4. Differentiate "dirt road" of "4x4 trail".

    "Dirt road / 4x4 trail" should be called "4x4 trail" only, and keep the same navigation capabilities as now, only to be allocated as such the badly damaged roads that only 4x4 vehicles are able to travel it.
    In the "street category" should be added a new type of segment called "dirt road", which would be passable streets for any vehicle but their ability to circulate them may vary due to various external factors such as weather. Because of this, they should suffer some level of penalty in the routing, and allows the "avoid dirt roads" in the application for…

  5. Move (Install) to SD Card (Android)

    I would like to be able to move waze to my SD card. I have 2.2, but my phone does not have enough internal storage for all my apps. It would be awesome if I could move this to my SD since it is one of the larger apps.

  6. More Special Voices! Deadpool for example

    How awesome would it be to have Deadpool telling you what to do?! There hasn't been a special voice since C3PO and he would be a great one :) I love the special voices!

  7. Adding report option of Fire Trucks, EMTs, Emergency Personnell causing traffic congestion

    In NYC and other major cities fire trucks and emergency personnel tend to cause traffic congestion and causing delays. I think waze should add a report feature for this type of activity since reporting closure wouldn't make sense in a temporary situation.

  8. I do not like the new sleep feature! I want to be able to turn waze OFF! Please switch it back

    I like the old feature allowing us to turn waze off when we get to our destination, not the sleep mode. Can you please put back the option to turn off waze

  10. לתת עדיפות לתוצאות של בתי חולים או סימון מיוחד

    לאחר מספר מקרים בהם חברים ניסו להגיע לביתח חולים אך הכתובת הראשונה היתה לפי קירבה (למשל רחוב בלינסון בכפר סבא במקום בית חולים בלינסון בפתח תקווה) ובגלל החשיבות הגדוחה בעניי כאשר אדם מנסה להגיע לבית חולים אני מצעיה שבחיפוש שמות של בתי חוליפ הם יוםיעו ראשונים (ולא בהכרח התוצאה הקרובה) או לחילופין שלבתי חולים יוסיפו סימן אשר ייחד אותם מכתובות אחרות ם

  11. Take advantage of AMOLED screens

    AMOLED screens have the capability to reduce battery life when used correctly.
    When a user either selects Night Mode or Waze automatically selects Night Mode, please change the background to solid black instead of dark blue. This will greatly reduce the amount of LEDs being used by the screen, thus saving battery life.
    Or if a users wish to keep the dark blue background, have an option to select "Dark Night" mode.

  13. Voice audio sample

    When selecting a new voice it would be very convenient to have an audio sample play so we don't need to start a trip to hear what it sounds like.

    We plan to work on adding an option to hear Voice samples when choosing in the near future. In the meantime, make sure you’ve got the latest version of Waze for all the latest features.

  16. The new “road shield” symbol reduces text legibility

    New “road shield” symbol means the font size is reduced making it harder to read whilst driving. I’m a UK user. The road number is now shown in a box with a smaller font than it was previously. Please revert back to the previous, larger font size

  17. Have an OPTION for arriving on the same-side of the street as the destination.

    This would apply mostly to cities but it could also apply in other congested areas. Arriving on the wrong side of the street in a city situation can be as bad as arriving several blocks away since in order to turn into the parking for the building you cannot crossover the heavy traffic or possibly a median. Instead you have to come up with your own way of circling around (and there may be many 1-way streets to thwart you) to get your vehicle on the same side of the street as the destination so you can park/drop off or…

  18. Ability to switch speed/speed limit display.

    The speed limit is the critical information. Currently it is the smaller of the two shown. Often, on a phone, the speed limit is too hard to read.

  19. Reveal the limit on the maximum number of favorites

    Apparently there is a limit of 99 favorites that will be displayed, however, it doesn't say anywhere that there is a limit. When you reach the limit, it just stops saving new favorites, without letting you know that they have NOT been saved. It should tell you that you can't save any more until you delete some.
