  1. Alert Signal ahead

    Dear Waze Team,

    I strongly recommend adding voice alerts for upcoming traffic.

    Traffic signals are placed even on straight roads with no intersections

    The sunlight glare during peak hours makes signal visibility very difficult.

    Pedestrian crossings and school zones have signals with no visual cues from afar

    This feature would significantly improve safety, reduce violations, and help drivers who are new to the city or unfamiliar with signal placement.

    Even a simple alert like:

    “⚠️ Traffic signal ahead”
    ... would make a huge difference, especially during bright, blinding weather conditions.

    Google Maps already displays traffic lights. Since Waze is owned…

  2. Changement de véhicule

    Il serait bien que l’on puisse changer de mode de transport à l’image de plan sur l’iPhone, on peut sélectionner piéton, transport en commun ou camion. Il serait bien que l’on puisse faire au moins les trajets piéton.

  3. Kill the new cutesy animation when loading. Already too long and now longer. Annoying

    Milliseconds matter. Ask Spotify. Adding extra loading time for the sake of a cutesy animation is heresy.

  5. Wazers borran las alertas

    Hola, he notado que los wazers borran las alertas de baches y objetos en la via ya que que no se puede especificar en qué carril está y al pasar por otro carril no lo pueden notar y lo borran incrementando la posibilidad de un accidente. Sería genial poder especificar el carril donde se encuentra el bache, el objeto, el animal, la obra para que el wazer esté atento por si está transitando en ese carril, así como ahora que se puede especificar un carril bloqueado.

  6. Road block notification and subsequent re route

    When faced with a blocked road there is no way to reroute because whatever route you take initially it will try to take you back to the blocked road and this is very frustrating

  7. Lane guidance interface

    Hi, I have a suggestion to improve lane guidance in Waze.

    Currently, when a turn is coming up (e.g., turn right), Waze shows which lanes can be used (e.g., both right lanes). But sometimes, right after that turn, the driver needs to make another move (e.g., a left turn).

    In those cases, it would be helpful if Waze still showed the usable lanes, but highlighted the most optimal one for the next maneuver. For example, use a slightly different shade (like a darker green) to indicate that staying in the left of the two right lanes will make the next…

  8. Searching during navigating with carplay

    I think the worst thing about Waze is searching for a stop on your existing route.

    You click on gas stations and it comes up with a list. Not helpful while driving. Especially when those are not directly on the route. They could be behind you or far off the actual route.

    I use Google maps a lot more for local trips because of this feature. You need to add a stop on the route…whether it’s gas or an address and when you put that in. It shows 5 locations on the actual map so you can physically how far…

  9. Always-Visible Destination in Android Auto Navigation

    I’d like to suggest a feature improvement for Android Auto navigation. Currently, once a destination is selected, the system immediately switches to turn-by-turn directions, and the destination name or address is no longer visible on the screen. This becomes an issue when a wrong destination is accidentally selected, and it’s only realized partway through the drive.

    It would be very helpful if the destination (name and/or address) could be displayed persistently somewhere on the screen—either at the top or bottom—throughout the navigation. This would allow drivers to quickly verify the destination without needing to tap or search through menus, which…

  10. Disable automatic Update Request route reporting on higher level roads.

    Under certain circumstances, Waze seems to automatically submit automatic reports - but there seem to be too many of them (big time cost for editors that process and respond to URs following up for feedback, generally no response from the "reporter" because they didn't report anything themselves).

    This specific request is to disable "Incorrect route", "Incorrect turn" or other similar problems on higher-level divided roads (Motorway, Major Highway, Minor Highway). When we have roadworks, the roads authority will often set up contraflow lanes on the opposing direction's roadway. This seems to produce numerous automated reports that have no value (because…

  11. Toll limit

    There needs to be an option to be able to specify which toll roads to use on a given route.

    Oftentimes I'm going to a location where I only use portion of the paid highway as the second half of the journey is very expensive and I am able to divert.

    However, Waze always sends me the highway way as the fastest route, despite not being the most efficient or cost saving.

    This could be easily overcome but being able so set a cap price on tolls OR being able to add highway roads to an exception list within the…

  12. Emergency Route Mode

    "Emergency Route Mode" – a new Waze feature that instantly calculates the fastest route in urgent situations, bypassing all preferences (tolls, traffic, dirt roads, rural routes, highways, etc.). It builds user trust in real time, strengthens brand loyalty, and opens strong monetization channels via smart emergency ads, premium upgrades, and city partnerships.

  15. Potential Mobile Speed Trap Location Alert

    There are many locations where Police Camera vans stay. These are often the same location, and often around bends so its too late once they see you. You should add to the map, just like with speed cameras, potential mobile speed trap. This would allow everyone to be alert at all times, then if the vans are there, Wazers can further report Police just as usual. This would prevent speeding earlier on rather than when someone finally reports the presence of police. For example, this could be done by adding a new icon e.g. a van symbol, with an audio…

  18. Alternate routes options

    possibility for drivers to share different routes.
    For example.
    I work in a high traffic jam / high accident area.
    When I bring Waze up.
    It only gives me an option for 3 direct routes.
    Despite their being back road options or other possibilities.
    I would love if there was an option for the driver to submit alternatives.
    Or :
    choose from other alternatives.

    Can Waze be kept on as a floating screen while running other apps?
    Every time I open another app Waze just runs in the background. It would be much easier if You could keep the minimized floating screen up so you don’t have to tap that tiny blue button up in the corner, and so you can do other stuff while using the app. This is a feature on Google Maps.
