  1. Bike path crossing alerts

    In bicycle-centric cities like Madison, WI, the roadways are full of bike path crossings. Some have flashing yellow lights, while others are simply painted green. Alerting drivers of bike path crossings would make cities like Madison much safer.

    For reference, I was rear-ended at one with full flashing lights last year. It could have been fatal had the cyclist not been crossing the other side of the boulevard at the moment of impact.

    Please consider giving Waze users the option to be alerted at bike path crossings!

  2. Adjust routes

    Hi Waze team,

    I’m a long-time Wazer (5+ years), and I truly appreciate the app. However, I’d like to share some frustrating limitations:

    1. Add the ability to manually edit a route with multiple intermediate stops

    Waze usually finds good routes, but sometimes I want to manually adjust it — set 2–3 waypoints, fix the path myself, and avoid places I don’t want to pass. Right now, it’s not possible to fully customize a route this way.

    1. Allow starting a route from a different location (not current GPS location)

    In Ukraine, GPS can be unreliable or blocked in certain areas. Sometimes…

  3. Speed Limit indicators on map

    It would add to safer driving to have speed limit changes show up as standard indicators on the map while driving, meaning seeing them approach just like any other indicator on the map.

    Current issues/reasons:
    1. In South Africa we have many areas where the speed limit road signs are missing. I count four that are missing on my daily route alone, and this is extremely dangerous with frequent sudden braking necessary immediately after realizing the speed limit has changed without prior notice.
    2. There are often speed cameras directly after a speed limit change, which is a nice little…

  5. Mostrar en pantalla de forma anticipada el nombre de la próxima calle que se atravesará cuando se está navegando sin destino prefijado

    Si bien todas las calles tienen nombre, durante la navegación no siempre es visible el nombre de la calle en el tramo exacto que uno está atravesando, lo que obliga a mover manualmente el mapa para identificarla. Esto, cuando uno está manejando, resulta incómodo y hasta riesgoso.

    Una funcionalidad que tenía Garmin y que sería muy útil incorporar es la siguiente:
    mostrar en pantalla, de forma anticipada (por ejemplo, unos 100 metros antes), el nombre de la próxima calle que se va a cruzar, independientemente de si hay que doblar o no. Esto se mostraba en un pequeño rectángulo en…

  6. map zooms out and centers wrongly when driving along minor roads

    lately the map zooms out and the arrow indicating my car "centers" itself upwards on the screen when driving along small roads, making it very hard to determine the proximity and distance of the next turn. it's only been for the past week and still having this issue. I did not change any of my settings it just randomly happened starting last week onwards. the same issue happens even on my different phone with a different Waze account. when driving, the arrow that represents your car should be near the bottom edge of the map, not somewhere center or high-center…

  7. Draw your own way

    I want to be able to draw the exact route I want with my finger — just like on a paper map.

    Currently, Waze overrides my preferences by rerouting me through inner-city traffic, risking ZTL fines and unnecessary stress.

    Please allow users to freely draw a route and let Waze support us within that path, not override it.

    Sometimes the smartest tool is the one that listens — not the one that insists.

  8. Subscription for more content

    Here is my idea and I would hope if this ever got approved I would be included in the profits anyways

    Have a subscription based add on that has special features for car enthusiasts for £1.99 a month
    1. Add friends and be able to see them on your map if they are near by
    2. Friend can create groups for road trips and meets so that you can see set destinations together aswell as set group pins as a destination if they have found somewhere cool to go
    3. Have a road tracker bit like a video game where…

  9. To avoid road construction

    You should add so that you can do the same to avoid road construction as with avoiding toll roads! That is, choose another alternative route if road construction is on the proposed route. A completely different thing is that you should add a warning for all "fixed" road bumps so you don't get hit by a car!

  11. Sugestão de melhoria

    Sugestão de melhoria – Exibição precisa das distâncias

    Olá, equipa Waze!

    Parabéns pela excelente aplicação de navegação que uso diariamente.

    Gostaria de sugerir uma melhoria importante na forma como as distâncias dos percursos e instruções são apresentadas. Atualmente, quando o Waze propõe múltiplos trajetos, as distâncias surgem arredondadas aos quilómetros inteiros — por exemplo, tanto 48,6 km como 49,4 km aparecem como “49 km”. Esta simplificação pode ocultar diferenças reais de até 800 metros entre as rotas, o que influencia negativamente a escolha mais eficiente.

    Além disso, nas instruções de condução, seria muito útil poder visualizar distâncias em metros, principalmente…

  12. New look

    Waze was great in overall but recent "refresh" made it undrivable. Car icon is covered with streets names, then when you get to complicated junctions, street names cover the actual streets and you're left guessing, which might be pretty dangerous with traffic around you. When you get any notification (radar, police, obstruction etc) the box with the name of the street you're on goes up and, yes, you don't see your car icon. If you're on the street with long name, you won't see car icon or actual streets around cause blue box with the name blocks the view. I…

  13. Add Moderate Traffic option in CarPlay Report

    Within Apple Carplay, reporting traffic you only get two options… “Heavy” or “Standstill”. There is no option for “Moderate” or a general “Traffic” option. Please add!

  16. Add option to drop pin at the location we want to go AND to save as special destinations (Home, Work, etc).... instead of just key in the ad

    Add option to drop pin at the location we want to go AND to save as special destinations (Home, Work, etc).... instead of just key in the address. Been years, but still so typical... in the name of minimalistic 🤦🏻‍♂️❤️🌌✨.

  17. Closure sign colouring.

    Could you possibly change the background of the "closure" sign? Its currently red on red which makes it a little difficult to see (even more so if you are colourblind).

  18. Waze needs to add a feature to read warnings every time there is a change in speed limit on the route.

    Suggest Waze needs to add a feature to read warnings every time there is a change in speed limit on the route. (currently: waze does not read or very rarely reads warnings when there is a change in speed limit)

  19. Suggestion for the Waze Suggestion Box. Please add a spam Button.

    Suggestion for the Waze Suggestion Box. Please add a spam Button. When more than 3 spam votes on it and no comments delete/disable/hide. I would like to set up a rss feed on my pc. With no spam filtering it would be unusable. It will probably improve the interaction with the suggestion box . Greetings

  20. GPX Tracking option

    Dear,
    I would like to see a possibility to track an unplanned, random route that I drive live so that it can be loaded into Waze and navigated afterwards by myself or someone else, with whom I can then share the route.
    Thanks in advance,
    Andres
