Instant location marking button for issue reporting afterwards
I see some issue on road that I want to report, but I am driving. I can’t report after I passed. Is it possible to have button on Nav screen for marking a place, for reporting an issue, after I stopped driving?

Allert for heavy/high vehicales
suggestion - to add a feature that allerts heavy/high vehicals, from enetering into restricted road. For Ex - road 395 in israel.
Driver that enters this road without knowing about the restriction will go all the way up the road and will have to do a u - turn, get a traffic report or to cause traffic jam at a specific area where the road is narrow that they cant pass through2 votes -

Rendre le guide vocal un peu plus bavard
Depuis que la nouvelle fonction "moins bavard" est apparu, j'ai mis "normal"
Mais j'ai remarqué que le guidage vocal est moins bavard : j'ai pris la route dans le nord et il y avait une bifurcation (route en type Y) : waze ne m'a rien dit. C'est dangereux : je préférais quand il me disait "prenez légèrement à gauche..." plutôt que ... rien.2 votes -
Quick Travel Mode Switching for Users with Multiple Vehicles
This feature has already been suggested by the Waze community, and it appears to be a recurring request from multiple users since years. However, there does not seem to have been any update or response regarding its development.
Context
I use Waze both as a car driver and as a motorcyclist, so I regularly switch between different modes of transportation depending on the trip.
The problem
Currently, changing the travel mode is not quick or easily accessible. To switch from car to motorcycle, I have to navigate through several menus and access the settings to change my vehicle.
This is…

שינוי או ביטול עצירה
- להוסיף אפשרות ביטול עצירה בכל שלב של הנסיעה והמשך נסיעה אל היעד1
- להוסיף אפשרות החלפת עצירה לעצירה ביעד חדש (גם יעד שנשלח אלי באותו רגע)
- להפוך בין היעד המקורי לבין נקודת העצירה.
- לרשום זמן נסיעה עד לעצירה + זמן נסיעה עד ליעד הסופי כולל העצירה (אולי זמן סופי בסוגריים)

Feature: Quick Peek Upcoming Turns
For unfamiliar roads, I want a quick and intuitive way to “peek” at my next turn so I can position my car properly in advance.
Let users manually scroll the map ahead to an upcoming turn. The turn closest to the centre of the screen should automatically be highlighted and show its turn information. The turn highlight colour and turn information background colour could match, making the visual connection between the highlighted turn and its information immediately clear.
This is especially useful when multiple turns are close together. As the user moves the map, the highlighted turn would clearly indicate…

Don't Popup the "Would you like to enable voice control?" during navigation
During navigation a prompt will pop up asking to enable voice control. This covers the entire screen and doesn't go away until interacted with. In many countries it's illegal to touch your phone while driving. This has essentially rendered waze useless for me and I've had to go back to google maps.

reduce the amount of turn warnings. I counted 6 warnings to exit a highway!
"prepare to exit highway in 1.5km"
"...in 800m"
"...in 400m"
"...in 200m"
"...in 100m"
"exit"(going off memory here, so the values may be off)
I suggest reducing the warnings to 3 or 4 :
"prepare to exit in 1km"
"...in 200m"
"...in100m"
"exit now"2 votes -
"Other side" reporting of police should ONLY be available on divided highways and interstates.
One shouldn't have to look at the screen to see a marked police location but get no audible report/alert. Please alert for both directions.
People in town or rural highways often use "other side" tag but the police are present for BOTH directions because it's not like they can't be watching lanes each way on regular roads.2 votes -
stop changing routes
Please add an option to disable Waze from changing your route as soon as you start driving, I specifically choose routes that are a couple minutes longer as I hate certain roads yet it’s useless as as soon as I set off Waze has already changed my route and put me back onto the way I didn’t want to go, this is really frustrating and definitely the worst part of the app

Implement a user-selectable feature to inhibit re-routes that won't save more than nn minutes
Simple. Provide radio buttons for Settings that will allow one to inhibit re-routes unless they will save one a minimum of some number of minutes; e.g., 5-minutes, 10 minutes

Permanent warning of the possibility of animal crossing
Hi, It occurred to me that it would be useful to have a permanent warning (like the Tutor) of the possibility of wild animals (like deer) or domestic animals (like cows) crossing the road.
My suggestion is for the following feature: Added permanent warning “Possible animal crossing”.
My suggestion solves this problem: Know how far and how many kilometers you’ll be at risk of animals crossing the road. Don’t be caught unprepared when dealing with animals.
In more words: The warning would be similar to the average speed control warning. This warning doesn’t replace the animal warning, but it would provide advance warning…

CarPlay UI improvements: Cross-street names on map and proactive visual alternate routes
I would like to propose two purely visual UI improvements for Waze on Apple CarPlay, specifically designed for drivers who prefer on-screen cues over voice alerts:
- Real-time cross-street labels on the map: Please add a feature or setting to display the names of upcoming cross-streets or major intersecting roads directly on the CarPlay map layout, rather than only showing the name of the next turn. This helps drivers maintain spatial awareness and quickly recognize familiar local alternative routes via visual landmarks.
- Automatic HUD/Map indicators for alternate routes and faster recalculation: Finding alternate routes in CarPlay currently requires manual taps through…

Map view on dash screen
When driving my 2026 Chevy Equinox there’s a capability to look at the map directly infront of the screen behind the wheel. When you do this the little box notification of when to turn is directly in the middle of the map so if you are trying to look at what the intersection looks like it’s completely blocking the incoming intersection which makes it difficult because sometimes the visualization of the intersection or ramps to the highway is helpful and necessary. Can the little notification box be moved where it is out of the way of the incoming streets?

change shape or proximity of the alert pop up choices to make it easier to hit with a finger
Concerning the pop-up's for alerts: for example when one comes up for a car on the shoulder. The two choices are imprinted on two horizontal bars that are very close together. I find that sometimes although my finger is going to "still there" because the choices are horizontal bars and close together, a small deviation in the car caused me to miss and hit " not there". A suggestion therefore - why not have the choices a different shape, i.e. circular, and separated in a way that mitigates this issue ? I like this app by the way.

Average-speed zone UI and stationary camera voice alert
In landscape mode the vertical green bar for distance to an average-speed zone disappears. Keep it visible in landscape.
Show time of entry into an average-speed zone and the earliest allowed exit time, so the driver can judge speed to the exit.
Add a short voice alert when approaching a stationary speed camera. There is none today.
Thanks

Audible Police Alerts
I would love for WAZE to audibly alert me to a police sighting posted for the opposite direction I am driving. Right now, it only alerts me (audibly) if the police post is on my side of the road. Since I travel on 2-lane roads a lot, it would help if I could be (audibly) alerted to a police post on either side of the road, since most police can easily stop a car going either direction. The audible could say "Police ahead on the left" or "Police ahead on the right."
