  2. Waze sat nav device

    Is there a way to get Waze onto a physical sat nav device and not have to use it on my phone? If not, can you create one and/or release a Waze sat nav device?

  3. Customise CarPlay view

    On wide screen car screens Waze buttons are all too small. Make a setting screen to customise the size and layout of the onscreen elements to make it easier to use especially with a touch screen. The Apple buttons have recently been improved in a similar way

  5. Adding "Storage" as a category for locations/businesses

    There is currently no "storage" category for facilities that are built for people to, well, store items. Places such as Self Storages and warehouses. Currently, I've been saving them as "other." I want to propose this category addition not just for easier mapping, but easier searching for Waze drivers.

  6. POI ahead

    Some dedicated Sat Navs show POI up ahead on your planned route without the need to do a search. This is VERY useful if you urgently need a nearby Supermarket (for toilet or supplies) or something else. This would be an awesome feature on Waze too!

  7. Option to disable new message pop-up

    Can you please give users the option to disable the pop-up when opening the app?

    Active editors will look at replies to their messages while are editing the map.

    Busy editors will reply to dozens of URs every day, and this pop-up is guaranteed to show every single time we open the app.

  8. Reports of police presence

    I’m a new user and like your app very much. The reports of stalled cars and other hazards is very helpful for everyone’s safety. However, speeding has become a serious problem on the highways, since Covid has resulted in much less police presence. When Waze reports the location of radar traps. It encourages drivers to violate the law and avoid getting tickets; this is not in everyone’s best interest. My recommendation is that you stop reporting radar traps.

  9. Lane guidance colour

    The current lane guidance in Android Auto is shown such that the 1st line shows the upcoming lanes to take, and the 2nd line shows the next (i.e. then) guidance. Instead of taking up two lines, which takes up space, colour the most appropriate lane (s) in a different colour (green), and the least best lane in another colour (amber). For eg, if the upcoming highway exit is 3 lanes to the right, but the final edit is only the right most lane, colour the 3 arrows such that the right most is green, and the two other arrows in…

  10. Add Exhaust Microphone cameras to “What do you see?” Feature so other drives can report it. Please NYC

    Will Waze add Exhaust microphone cameras to the map? Or can drivers report it? Please add It to “what do you see feature”, so other drivers can confirm.

  13. Left hand HOV Lanes

    Waze does not reliably suggest HOV lanes. When HOV lanes are dedicated, Waze will regularly suggest them when selecting an HOV route, but when it's a permissive lane (separated by dashed lines rather than separated by a physical barrier), Waze will not suggest the lane most of the time.

    When a Wazer selects an HOV route, permissive HOV lanes should be suggested.

  16. Quick access icons.

    Put additional icons on the available space on the left side of the screen (and top/bottom) for Police (visible, hidden, and other side). Also a Vehicle on shoulder, pothole, object on road, and roadkill would be extremely helpful.
    It would make it much safer and you would get more accurate reporting if we don't have to navigate through choices when alerting other drivers.

  17. Place report in different place than current location

    I wish to have an option to report police on the road but I want to set the point (like few kilometers behind not where I am currently). In my country there are radars on the road, installed in civil cars, but the police stop you after 4-5 km later. Even the other participants report the police there is not helpful because you already was registered by radar.

    So, an option to mark it later will help the other people to avoid that radar.

    Thanks!

  18. "Along the Way"

    It'd be great to have some sort of functionality to where if I'm going from point A to point B, but I want to stop "along the way" at, say, a Taco Bell, you could search for these interim destinations, see how many there are, and which ones are more out of the way than others. Oftentimes, if you search now, it stops your route and maybe even sends you backwards. If I could know that if I wait 20 more miles, there's a Taco Bell 0.2 miles out of the way, I might rather do this than turning around…

  20. Add iPhone music player for songs stored locally in my iPhone, not just for songs in Apple Music premium subscription

    Currently, Waze for iOS/iPhone includes controls for Apple Music. But it only works if the user has a subscription to Apple Music. I have a lot of music that I own stored locally on my iPhone. But Waze cannot control the music player, unless it is controlling the paid/subscription Apple Music.
