  1. Wouldn't it be great to be able to exclude a freeway or particular road from your planned route?

    I already summed it up in the title, you kids are the pros.. But I would love to have more options for routes and options to avoid a freeway or major thoroughfare.

    Oh and just an irrelevant side note; that American woman's navigation voice, ug I can't listen to it. She sounds like your mean teacher from middle school- but the American guy is great.

    Wase no reporta por sonido las cámaras de semáforos, y de velocidad. Este error es intermitente. Hay momentos que reporta una, y después no reporta las que siguen, al menos en Medellín

  5. Make map chats into a full messaging feature.

    Map chats usually pop up and then disappear after a while, leaving no trace. I would like to be able to get back the chats I receive and respond to them later when I'm not driving. This would increase the 'socialness' of Waze and maybe even lead to making new friends on the road.

  6. I would love to see the ability to plot a holiday lights display on the map.

    I'd like o be able to plot the great holiday lights displays in my area so I can tell other Wazers about them. Additionally one could have Waze plot a lights tour path to follow.

  8. MPG Tracking

    Have a section available (possibly with the gas prices reporting) that allows you to input the amount of gas ($) & quantity (gallons) so you can keep track of how many miles/gallon you're getting.

  9. Car care features implemented in to the Waze

    Waze could have same kind of an fuctionality as there are in many car care apps in the market.
    -Counting mileages and fuel consumption.
    -You could set up odometer reading when u should change oil etc etc and Waze could remind you of that.
    -When navigating to a far away destination Waze could warn u if gas should run out before you reach there and suggest gas station en route.

    For example on iPhone there is app called Gas Cubby that can count mileages and costs for running your car but you have to put in mileage and gas price…

  10. Custom Road Hazard tags

    Allow for custom Road Hazard labels. The current selection is quite general, but it would be nice to have the ability to pre-create custom hazard tags for those times when adding a description isn't possible.

  11. Google Now (Jelly Bean) integration

    Right now I can fire off navigation from Google Now to Google Maps. Waze is offered as an app to do this, but does not accept the external input of the destination to Navigate to.

  12. Change the street name display

    Displaying all the street names horizontally makes the names unusable since I can’t tell what street the name applies to. In the Live Map application the printing of the names follow the street. If some people want all of the names horizontal, why not offer both options via a personal setup?

  14. Eco mode

    How about an Eco mode that would give you a warning beep if you accelerate or decelerate too fast or drive over the posted speed limit? Of course, the driving speed (for traffic) would need adjusted (because if you're driving 10 under the speed limit for MPG reasons that doesn't mean that there's traffic issues).

  17. Allow other users to send address to my handheld client

    Allow facebook friends, waze group members, etc. to send an address to my handheld client if I am online.
    1) When an address is recieved by the client, ask the user to accept the route, reject the route or block all address pings.
    2) If I don't have a route set, auto accept the aaddress after 10 seconds.
    3) Add a new category to the Address Search dialog similar to My Favorites, Recent searches, Contacts, etc. List the received addresses for easy access.

  18. Notifications in Android Notification bar when Waze is in the background

    I would like to see an icon popup next to the Waze icon in the Android Notification bar when people send a Ping, comment to your chat, or when an event like police or accidents have been reported. This would be useful when Waze is in the background.

  19. Give editors a method to quickly jump to a chat response from another editor

    I literally have thousands of editors that I have chatted with and when one replies, I can see the icon in the top right of my editor screen tells me I have a reply. But to get to it, I must scroll through hundreds (or thousands) of other editors to find the response. Could you make it so I could jump directly to that response?

    These are new editors and it's important that we are quick in our response to them.
