I would like Waze to show me the recommended speed to avoid multiple stops while in slow moving traffic jam
Especially when driving regular gear cars, you prefer to drive slowly but steady, rather than stopping and accelerating consistently. This is also favorable in fuel consumption manners. In the long run, if a lot of users will obey this feature it could consequently help to promote the traffic congestion by preventing multiple stops, and improve the traffic flow.

Landscape mode, indicator
When in landscape mode on iPhone, there is no indicator that tells us that we are in a danger zone, a short signal and a visual indication appear at the entrance and exit of the zone but nothing in between, while in portrait mode there is a visual indicator. That exist on older versions

New adult looking display... The update looks like a child designed it
The new update on Android really killed Waze in my opinion. I like the new button layout and placements, but there are a few problems with the display.
a) Color scheme - Looks like a child colored it in. I would like not so vibrant colors and more professional looking.
b) The view port - It seems to show much more of the road you have already passed than it did before the update. I'm not concerned with the road I have already driven on, I would much rather see more ahead.
c) Road Thickness - WAY too thick!!! At…12 votes -
Fake Police Reports
If you have less than a 50% accuracy with your police reports you should get banned.
Also, you should not be able to place multiple police within a couple of miles of each other.
The state police in NJ and IL are causing more traffic and accidents because they are putting in false reports and setting up a speed trap a mile down the road. People are varying the speeds and it is a nightmare to drive with.
If this is not fixed I will find another GPS alternative.

boston accent
You should have a boston accent choice. Just make sure it's actually someone from here doing the accent. Then you could add accents from other states as well.

Please could you bring back the spanish voice KURT DYER? It's so funny it makes wating in traffic a little better.

You can use these for the length of the promotion. When the promotion ends, your voice will reset to the default and the voice will no longer appear in the Sound menu.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!

Police Car in the middle
On the open interstate highways in the USA the State Highway Patrol sit in the middle but I don't know which direction the police is shooting. If there is a "middle" option, it would alert Waze users of either direction. Not only one side of the highway

Make the nav text (under the distance) white instead of light blue to improve contrast
The current navigation text is light blue on black (which becomes dark gray under most lighting conditions) lacks contrast and becomes unreadable in many situations. Also would be good to allow for user-selectable text size to take advantage of larger displays (6 and 6 plus).

Police Officer options
Any way to create an option to log on as a "verified" Police Officer so I can respond to hazzards not called in but reported to Waze? Maybe an option to create an overlay so if I'm signed on, I get notified of hazzards in my area?

Highway Exits
It would be great that Waze would recognize if you are traveling along an out of state highway and could provide further information on exits along the highway. This information could be provided by wazers and could just use a check box option such as
- Easy on Easy Off
- Great Place to Get Gas
- Great Place to Get Food
- Safe Area
- List of Nearby Restaurants (off of Exit)

Tom Hiddleston
I suggest using Tom Hiddleston's voice for navigating. It would make the travel in traffic worthwhile.

next service station - distance/time
On a long drive it'd be handy to be able to see:-
"Service station 1 - 3miles/5mins"
"Service station 2 - 45miles/38minutes"12 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, 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!

When traveling long straight
When traveling long straight the system does not 'tell' anything and that can cause the user to think there is a technical malfunction in the system or communication. It is better that every few minutes or miles the system will say: "I am here" or "Continue straight" etc.

Invites the user to reports UR to correct the problem himself
When the editor reports an error on the map as UR , the system could send an e- mail indicating the WME and the forum so that it even correct the problem on the map. The idea is to get new editors.

Ability to say 'dont send me this way again' for dangerous turns or bad neighborhoods.
I live in a big city with a long commute and many options to to my destinations. Sometimes the way Waze sends me around traffic is dangerous (i.e. Turning left onto a 5 lane, busy highway just to immediately turn right, or through high crime areas). An option to indicate unsafe guidance and not to suggest it again would be great.
