Rerouting dialog is obtrusive
When waze reroutes or changes ETA it pops up a dialog "Rerouting" or "Your ETA has changed due to ...". Especially the rerouting dialog is annoying as it obstructs a clear view of the map which you most likely need at that moment. A small spinner in the corner of your screen (maybe in the green nav-bar?) and the audible warning should be enough. Maybe a "Don't show again" button on those dialogs?

Use special tiles for not downloaded areas
Let the waze client use a special tile for not downloaded areas. When on a slow connection you sometimes realise there's no road where you are, so you enable construction mode just to realise a minute later that the roads in the area just weren't finished downloading to your phone yet.

Bring back the old speedometer position (bottom left corner)
With the latest update, the speedometer on the mobile app has moved from the bottom left corner to the center of the bottom edge of the screen. This new position is distracting and interferes with map visibility, especially when checking upcoming turns or traffic info.
The previous placement in the bottom left corner was much more intuitive and out of the way. Please consider giving users the option to choose the speedometer position, or revert it back to where it was.

routes for caravans
Please create a category for those towing a caravan so that inappropriate routes are not offered.
I would rather travel further on a good road than be guided onto a narrow, winding, steep or unsafe surface when towing my caravan.
The risk of a collision with an oncoming vehicle travelling at high speed on a windy dirt road is very high when visibility is limited and there is no room to manoeuvre22 votes -

Waze on cluster screen over Carplay
Apple Maps and Google Maps are able to display a map on the cluster screen when connected via Apple Carplay.
Can an option be implemented for Waze to do the same thing?

Multiple car profiles for those with more than one car
Most families have more than one car. Often those cars are different and may have different fuel systems, such as petrol, diesel, and electric. That means refuelling stations are different, and also permits. In London, a BEV is UL EZ exempt, and congestion charge exempt. But a diesel has to pay ULEZ and congestion charges. So routing, etc would be different. So having different profiles for each car and being able to select them when starting out or planning would be most useful. This feature is in most apps, such as parking....

Wind gusts icon
I'd suggest to add into climatic alerts group an icon to be used to inform Wazers that there a risk due to wind gusts.
I guess there is a significant number of users (such as truck, light commercial, bus and caravan drivers) that may be interested to this potential risk and would appreciate if Wazers would turn on a specific alert.
What do you think about it?

A few user stories for supporting BEV / electromobility in Waze
Dear Wazers,
I have been using your product far before "the Google times." When I first downloaded Waze, the road to my home was not "Wazed-paved" yet, so I had to pave it myself :). Anyway, that's not what I'm writing you about. I want to extend a request to you through a few user stories, which would significantly enhance my electromobility driving experience. I hope you're already thinking in that direction, and we'll see enhancements for BEV (battery-electric vehicles) soon.
There're plenty of elecromobile-specific apps, but Waze is my current choice for a guidance app. As such, I am…

Do AWAY with cartoonish “rewards”
Do AWAY with the cartoonish rewards! This is a useful app and not a ridiculous game. Going 75mph down the highway and I “verify” a car on the side of the road and as soon as I do I come over a small rise and there’s a car in the left shoulder partially in the fast lane and the ridiculous cartoon rewards are still flashing so I can’t press the notification button to alert other drivers!! It’s either a game or a useful app, stop trying to make it both!!

Interface suggestion
When asking if police or disabled car on side of the road, perhaps separate the “still there” and “not there” buttons. Perhaps one on the top and one on the bottom. Sometimes I accidentally click the wrong button as the car is bumpy and the buttons are too close together. FYI. This is on Apple CarPlay.

Full screen view
My Waze and search fields take almost half of the screen space in landscape mode. This is getting out of hand. Add an option to hide them when I drive without navigation please.
