  1. Tripit Integration

    Wouldn't it be cool if Waze linked to the Tripit.com API and was able to pull out all of the places I had meetings in a day. That way I could get a feel in advance for the travel time I might require to drive. Also I wouldn't have to screw around copying each address over for every trip, Waze would just be aware of the addresses.

  5. Ability to select different text scale.

    The map screen seems designed for lower resolution phones. When used on Galaxy S4 the text is too small to read. Suggest adding a scale option.

  6. Set-up - changing country

    Not an idea as much as a question. How I change the country if I picked the wrong one in the beginning? This app is useless with current setting and I can't seem to change it.

  7. Police Notification Radius

    When approaching a Police trap, I love the ability to be able to say if they are still there or not. Would like the ability to select if they are there or not for half of a mile or so after passing the original location. In my area, sometimes police will pull someone over, travel up the road a little, and resume their speed monitoring duties.

  8. Time-based Map Topology

    In Washington, DC specifically, and in other cities around the United States (and probably around the world), certain turns are illegal between 7:00-9:30 am or 4:00-6:30 pm. More challenging, Rock Creek Park - a major commuter route that is often utilized by Waze - allows southbound traffic only between 7:00-9:30 am on mon-fri, and northbound traffic only between 4:00-6:30 pm on mon-fri. Waze is unable to factor in these restrictions, and becomes of limited usability during these times. Its really frustrating for me, and my partner. Please, please, please fix this? I'm afraid one of our phones might go flying…

  9. adjust hazard reporting to include where the problem is, IE left Shu

    Location of Hazard/Accident: It would be extremely helpful to be able to identify where a Hazard or Accident is IE: Left or Right Shoulder, Left or Right Lane or Center lane. This would allow wazers to adjust there positioning on the road to get through the problem area quicker by knowing to stay on the opposite side of where the problem has been reported.

  10. A more credible alert...

    The following factors would give a "certainty" rating to each report:
    * Number of wazers ahead of me (within .5-2 miles)
    * Number of minutes since the alert was posted
    * Number of "thanks" attached to report
    * Whatever logic Waze uses to determine more credible users...

  11. Optional "no map" (trip computer) view when route is known

    8 out of 10 times I use Waze driving to and from work, a route I know very well so I don't need Waze to show me my position on the map.
    What I instead would like is a "trip computer" kind of interface, showing me things like my current speed, current speed limit (if known), maybe a color code for traffic ahead on route (green, yellow, red), ETA, current road name (nice to have, not need to have - I know where I am), live updates of incidents (needs to update themselves automatically), textual navigation instructions like "turn right…

  12. Send a text message when delayed and/or shortly before arriving

    Waze can send twitter-messages, but with the new APIs in iOS4 it could send textmessages (SMS) as well. When entering a destination for routing, one could also select a mobile phonenumber (of the person we are driving to) so that significant delays are reported automatically to this person. Also, waze could send a SMS some minutes before arriving at the destination. This comes really handy when you want to pick someone up!

    When I say "automatically" - I mean that Waze pops up a dialog that you only have to confirm.

  13. Show Accurate Distance to Exit Inside Roundabouts

    Display the actual remaining distance to the correct exit while inside the roundabout. This would help drivers better anticipate when to exit, especially in larger or multi-exit roundabouts.

    When driving a roundabout, the distance to the exit is always shown as “0 m” in the current navigation display. This can be misleading, as the driver has not yet reached the exit.

    Knowing how far it is to the correct exit helps reduce confusion and allows for smoother lane changes and safer navigation. Showing “0 m” before reaching the exit does not reflect the real driving experience and can lead to…

  14. vehice type and bridge height

    Should include the Highest of HGV and Luton Van on vehicle type.
    Also, the map should have an option the avoid going under the bridge due to the height of certain Luton vans and HGV.

  17. update recent / saved drives

    A lot of Update Requests come from drivers who are using saved drives for Places that have been updated or changed in the map editor.

    Can we make it so after a time period (a month, for instance) the app queries the server for updates when an entry is chosen from the recent/saved drives? Or give a prompt that allows the user to manually update a saved entry, or all entries? "It's been over a month since you've driven here, would you like to see if there have been any changes?"
    Also, an option (in the settings or in the…

  18. Show Stop lights

    Make viewing intersections with stop lights and option (show the stop light on the navigation). This is something Apple Maps has and it helps people anticipate turns and make less mistakes.

  19. Allow to rename "Home/Work" labels or at least give option to hide the "Home/Work" icons displayed on the maps

    Allowing to rename the Home/Work labels or give the option to not show the Home/Work icons on the maps would be a really useful option to help wazers keep their personal information private. For example I often have work collegues and clients in my car and whenever I drive near my home it's clearly labeled on the map exactly where I live. I do not want everyone at work and clients knowing my home address.. Whenever I have to drive with collegues/clients in my car, I switch to using the iOS Maps app so no one will see my address,…

  20. Satellite layer in map editor

    Show satellite images in map editor. Sometimes roads are missplaced and only way to fix them is to compare with satellite images.
