  2. רישום היעד בראש המסך

    שלום רב,
    אני משתמש "כבד" בוויז , רציתי לשאול האם ניתן שיהיה רשום תמיד על גבי המסך הראשי את היעד אליו את נוסע
    כלומר לעיתים הדרך "מתפתלת" והתוכנה מובילה אותך בדרכים לא מוכרות ואתה "מאבד את הביטחון" ששמת את היעד הנכון
    אם היה רשום למעלה במסך כל הזמן את היעד המקורי שאליו אתה נוסע היה יותר "שקט נפשי"
    מקווה שהסברתי היטב את כוונתי ושניתן לבצע

  3. Amoled screen

    Good Morning,

    I have been using wave for a long time and the truth is that I am delighted, I really like it. I would like to make a suggestion to you, can you attenuate or at least give the option to modify the screen configuration of the icons that remain fixed? The reason is that I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and in all phones that have this type of screen, the AMOLED, in the end, if you use the application a lot, as is my case, there is a burned area of ​​the screen where there are…

  4. OBJECT IN ROAD

    Need a very specifc alert for object in road. HAZARD REPORTED AHEAD is 90% of the time a car on the side of the road. There should be a verbal alert for objects. MUCH not important than a disabled car on the side of the road. Sample "OBJECT IN ROAD REPORTED AHEAD -CENTER LANE Now that's information we can use!

  5. Flagged Place reject reason

    It would great if you could communicate with Flagged place request to tell the Waser why their update request is being denied or feed back to educate the Wazer. I keep getting flagged Places because the gas price is wrong. Wish I had a way to educate the user on how to update the price.

  6. Alert for run-down animals

    English: We members of a robotics team created a new Waze alert. Imagine how much will be feasible alert when someone saw or trampled an animal? Usually the people don’t know what do when they trample an animal, if the Waze has this option the rescue of these animals will be easier of be accomplished and the animals will not die for staying for a long time waiting to they be ransomed.
    Will have an animal run-off alert (just as they already exist the camera alerts, per example) when the user to click on this alert he will notify if…

    Hey, 


    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.

    We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

    Thanks!


  7. Account recovery not a new account

    How about when a user gets a new phone or their phone crashes (both scenarios keep original Waze account phone number) an account reset or recovery option? You know, one that does NOT create a new account and informs you afterwards that you just hosed yourself because now you will never get your account back. I'm not so worried about the "points" I lost, it's my user name that still shows up as a user that I can no longer access. It's great you guys gobbled up Waze, how about raising your standards to that of the original company?

  8. English (uk) voice has changed for the worst

    Hi- I am a big fan of WAZE. I use it everyday and convert everyone over to it, as well. There is an issue in having with the updated "voices".

    The new ENGLISH (UK) does not say the street names as it used to do. This is a problem because now I have to continually take my eyes off road and read the street names on phone. Tonight I MISSED MY MERGE because I was looking down at phone and couldn't merge to the left in time.

    The previous ENGLISH (uk) voice would say mileage, direction of turn or merge…

  11. update alerts for other side of road

    I would like to be able to update alerts on either side of the road as no longer there, not just the side of the road I'm traveling on. Just like how Waze currently asks if a hazard is still there if it's in my traveling direction, it'd be nice to be able to click on a hazard or alert on the opposite side of the road and delete it if it's no longer there or relevant.
    Also, what happened to reporting hazards/traffic on the opposite side of the road after this newest android update? It's awful! It needs to…

  12. Need improving favorite / search

    I have idea about favorite / search

    1. Why not let Waze search address from my contact list?
    2. Why not create folder in favorite? Like Friend, Company, Restaurant, etc.
    3. When click address on contact, link to Waze instead iPhone's map

    That would be great!

  14. Display alternative ETA's at junctions

    When I'm driving towards an intersection junction along my route with several route alternatives, I would like a feature that displays hor much longer those alternative route choices are.

    Why?
    1) My commute has several alternative route choices that differ in meters and seconds.

    2) The first Waze default route choice is not always best.

    3) Sometimes I can plan my route better than Waze, and don't always choose the Waze route.

    4) Sometimes I prefer some variety in my daily commute.

    5) Sometimes I want to choose a different route just so I can see something different.

  15. Show Road events information in Map view - Plan Route

    In the earlier version of Waze this feature was available. With the new update the feature disappeared:
    When choosing the best route out of 3 options Waze shows the list of route and the map. In the Map View not it is missing the traffic information!!!!

    To be able to choose the best route it is totally necessary to see WHERE exactly along the route you should expect traffic.
    The list view shows this info somehow, but it is difficult to guess where exactly the road events are just on a simple line. In the Map View, you can easily…

  16. Add favorites from desktop Mac/PC.

    Add Desktop access. I find a route on my desktop, I have to send myself a text to add it to Waze. It would be nice if I could access my Waze client so I could both add favorites and manage current addresses on my desktop where I have a full keyboard.

  17. Add angry icon for jumping queue area or activity

    As a way to educate drivers who jump / cutting queue. The icon or symbol of angry face is to indicate that we do not condone such behavior. Those who don't like this bad activity can click on the icon and number of clicks will be increased. The symbol can also be used by authority to take action on those bad drivers.

  18. Shipping Locations: Optional Photo

    By submitting via a local application, make mandatory the address location of the fill and make sending the photo an optional, because sometimes we have the time and calm to report when we got inside the place, or parked in a location that does not have the ability to send the photo of the facade, or is night, it's raining etc ...
    This prevents photos "nothing", interior or wrong.
    Thus, passing the place, you could have an option to skip the photo, in the address field, making it mandatory.

  19. Text colors

    Presently, in turn-by-turn navigation, the distance until the next maneuver is in white an the name of the street/exit where that maneuver is to take place is in blue. The blue text is hard to read against a black background; and since the name of the street/exit is more important than the distance to it (IMO), I recommend switching these colors to show the street/exit name in white (and the distance in blue).
