General
Hello, I believe it would be really helpful if waze users could add the "possibility of risk" of a thief, i.e. Point out that there is somebode who could be a thief or some one with bad intensions. In Sao Paulo, Brazil, this os very common on trafic lights. If wazer could help one another to prevent this, waze would be adding a lot more value on the top of existing helpful tools. Unfortunatelly I did see few cases where this case happened and I could not tell other wazers users. Many thanks

report on a road I'm not on
I would like to be able to report activity that I'm not necessarily in the middle of. For example, I just exited a parkway right before massive traffic which was being caused by an accident with a lot of police activity, but because I didn't stay on the road I'm not able to report it to help others.

lessen # of waze icons on densely populated maps
Navigating Portland, Oregon is presently impossible for a newcomer. There are too many Waze driver icons, traffic flow icons, etc to be able to read street names and see where I need to go.
The software priorities should be street names and navigation, not seeing a bunch of pink happy faces.
I finally stopped using this app when I go to Portland in rush hour because it is not useful.2 votes -
display a welcome to [state] and any pertinent change in road laws
I like to be welcomed and some states don't have the same seat belt laws or disallow radar detectors. For anything i don't expect a disclaimer would be welcome

Integrated Phone dialer l
Often times when Waze is running and you need to make a call, you would have to open the phone app, finish the call and again open Waze to resume the navigation. It would be immensely helpful if we had a fully integrated dialer that can be used to make calls in the context of the Waze app.

Filled shapes (like parking lot, landmarks, etc.): snap active point to original start point.
When editing a parking lot, or other "filled" shape, it would be nice to snap the active point with the original start point, as it would work in programs like Illustrator, Flash, Photoshop, etc.

Download Report Picture
In case you manage a community social network it would be great to be able to dowload the picture from either the app or the live map

Per-Event Sound Toggling (or volume control)
Like the person who posted "Pause playback during audio alerts (for audiobooks)", I find that, on long commutes and during audiobook playback (music isn't as important) that the deluge of audio alerts from Waze makes me turn them all off the more familiar w/ the roads I get.
However, yesterday AM, I missed that there were 'Police Ahead' because I had all the sounds turned off (much like the 'low battery beep' on a smoke detector) and had an unpleasant encounter with an officer of the law.
I'd like the ability to, on a per-event level, toggle the sound on/off…

When there is a police ahead alert a sirin sound option would be neat and a blue strobe light to get your attention option

I just exceeded my alert limit, and wasn't able to report a major accident. All the alerts were valid, it was just a really bad day.
I just exceeded my alert limit, and wasn't able to report a major accident. All the alerts were valid, it was just a really bad day. I think it's time you allowed advanced users (who've reached a certain level) a higher limit.

Would like to see better graphics on the road alert popups so easier to distinguish alert type if voice alerts are off.
Need different graphic for vehicle on side of road, construction, object on road, etc. If sound is off or not hears, the subtext (vehicle stopped on shoulder, vs construction, etc) are hard to read. Also, different graphics for visible vs hidden police alerts would be helpful.

Wazer Moods
How about adding a singing mood. I love to sing while driving and I'm sure I'm not alone in this activity. Thanks!

Slightly larger "Menu" screen for safety/efficiency
If the "Menu" box was just a bit larger, all the options within would be viewable without having to scroll down to reach those bottom choices. This would bemore efficient but, more importantly, it would make using the "Menu" far SAFER than it is now. Just a slightly larger "Menu" screen would accomplish this.
