View a larger area of the map on phone while driving.
Please give the option to view a larger area of the map while driving. When on auto-zoom it's really close and you cannot see the road at least a few miles ahead.

Mostrar alternativas de viaje en la misma pantalla
A veces me envía por rutas más largas y lentas que Maps. Tal vez las rutas alternativas podría mostrarlas en la misma pantalla con sus minutos adicionales como lo hace Maps. Así sería super completa la aplicación.

Automatic setting for distance units
I've just returned to the UK from a holiday in Israel. I have to change the distance units manually both in the UK and in Israel. Could this be picked up automatically? It's not very convenient because you only realise they are wrong once you are driving.

Potholes are removed by bad actors
I drive rideshare and diligently mark devastating potholes just for them to be removed moments later. There may be bad actors in high clearance vehicles with big tires removing these, or just people that don't see them from a different lane. It's likely many just want the notification off screen and mindlessly downvote. It needs to be more difficult to get rid of pothole reports, or allow us a setting to make recent reports more persistent regardless of downvotes.

Picture type of hazard with different icons on navigation map
Change reported hazard icon on navigation map to actually picture the type of hazard instead of the general yellow exclamation triangle for everything.
If I report animals on the side.of.the road, I would expect to see the animal head icon on the map. Not a yellow hazard icon. It's far more informative and stops drivers from having to click into the hazard, taking their hands off the wheel, to see what it actually is.

I wish all the street directions and street names would show in my native language (English).
I wish all the street directions and street names would show in my native language (English). I prefer the features of Waze, but I often use Sygic instead because I can understand the interface. Waze keeps the street names and written driving instructions in Chinese while the voice speaks English. It's frustrating and distracting if I don't clearly hear the voice and then have to try to match the symbols on the phone with the Chinese characters on the signs while I drive. Taiwan is almost officially bilingual (2030) so all the street signs have their Roman equivalent. If the…

Google Assistant Voice Navigation Problem
Dear Waze Team.
Since yesterday (seems like after Google Assistant update) I cannot use voice commands via Google Assistant in Waze anymore.
This cause a problem while driving as it is dangerous to try and add potholes etc. manually while driving.
When having Waze open and I want to navigate with commands through Google Assistant - just nothing happen or Google Maps open.
There is NO Google Assistant option to choose in my Waze app in Waze > Settings > Voice & Sounds?
PLEASE ADVISE OR HELP.
Thank you so kindly.

Permanent road closures in London
Permanent road closures in London
There have been so many new road closures due to the LTN scheme (low traffic neighbourhoods). There is nowhere on the app that allows you to say that the road has been blocked to traffic in both directions at a particular point and that it is a road closure – usually permanent. Please add permanent road closure as an option.8 votesThanks for contacting us about reporting an error on the map. Our community of volunteer map editors handle all changes to the Waze map.

Configuraçao do alerta sonoro para todos radares de velocidade independente da velocidade de tráfego
[BRASIL] O velocímetro do waze sempre indica 10 km/h a menos que o velocimetro do carro, isso faz com que o waze não dê o alerta sonoro sobre os radares de velocidade que passo a 10 km/h a mais. Sendo assim peço que os desenvolvedores criem a opção de configurar o alerta sonoro pra todos radares de velocidade independente de velocidade, evitando o erro que relatei.

Allow the user to copy and paste locations/directions
Why doesnt Waze mobile allow the user to copy and paste locations but instead creates a long and convoluted way to send directions to others or copy them for sharing. Other apps like google maps allows a one click copy to clipboard to share. It should be that simple, i cannot ever share the location with anyone because it creates a link for people. Why a link, just copy the directions only. Im surprised its not a part of the app already.

Motorcyclist Approaching / Fast Vehicle Approaching Report
Some motorists like to weave in and out through traffic. Often times, these drivers/riders are only noticed once they fly by, which can be dangerous or fatal for anyone involved. We can increase driver awareness by adding a “Motorcycle Approaching” or “Fast Vehicle Approaching” feature in the Navigation mode. This will warn other Wazers that a fast motorcycle or fast vehicle may be approaching and to be extra cautious when merging. With a larger audience aware of fast-approaching vehicles, we can attempt to save more lives.

TURN OFF RECENT LOCATIONS pop up when you open Waze
For many reasons, including several types of safety reasons, we really need a way to TURN OFF the RECENT LOCATIONS pop up that appears every time you open the Waze App. I did contact support and there is currently (March 2021) not a way to do this.

Stop Taking over Car Audio in CarPlay
It is extremely annoying when Waze opens on car play that it changes my audio source to the CarPlay as well. It’s so annoying that I have gone back to using Google or Apple Maps exclusively, as they do not do this.

4.70.1.0 for Android - disable automatic "recent locations" tab
Why would you even bother adding such a thing? I don't need it. I know where to go for recent locations. I don't want to see it pop up every time I start waze.
Keep up these "improvements" and I'll be switching apps. Stop dumbing down the UI. Quit piling more and more crap on the main screen. There is no point. I want a map. I want traffic (audible) alerts. When using a destination, I want audible turn-by-turn directions. THAT'S ALL.
And TURN OFF THAT DAMNED CHIRP. Or, give me a toggle where I can turn it off. I'm…

Vehicle on left side of highway
Please add an option to report a vehicle stopped on the LEFT side of the highway. Often a Wazer will report a car on the side of the road, but it’s actually against the left wall and it’s confusing and dangerous.
