Interface - needs to revert to 3.x
The new interface looks childish and is unusable in landscape mode. The next instruction box at the top is too big. The notifications are horribly big, and the ones that show when you stop at a traffic light are worse, with the black background.
The map looks drawn by a 4 years old in crayon, seems to lack a lot of the information it had on v3.x., the map lines are too wide.
Having functions that only show when you tap the screen is very bad in usability terms.
To top all that, the interface is so heavy that it now takes three times as much to start and hangs frequently while I am driving, staying unresponsive for tens of seconds - and that is not a good idea for a GPS driving app.The new interface looks childish and is unusable in landscape mode.

The 'Parked here' function should be manual not auto.
The 'Parked Here' thing could have been cool but is useless as is. Nobody knows how it works. It should be a manual selection just like a road report so you can manual set where you parked. Not dependent on some conditions related to not moving or something. Fix that please.

I know a shorter, straighter, less turnings route to get to a specific area, yet Waze is taking me through the longest way possible.

Improve display for alternate routs
When alternate routs are displayed, the route description is displayed in small, grey, hard to read font. A larger and darker font would help.
This option of alternate routs is useful during drive to conclude if a suggested "exotic" route really save significant time.6 votes -
Il est génant, sur la nouvelle version, de ne plus pouvoir signaler de quel côté de circulation se situe le problème que l'on veut signaler.

Add the ability to use emoji in the app and Waze Map Editor
The ability to type emoji into chat and reports in the app would be a nice addition. Adding this ability to Waze Map Editor would also be nice as it would allow typing emoji into Update Request comments and the chat window.

Unblock phone sleeping when idle or parking - to preserve battery
It happened to me several times and I find it very annoying.
When I park the car waiting for someone out if I leave phone in the car when I reach my destination and I forget to turn it off, Waze will prevent the screen from turning off and will drain out my battery quickly.
My suggestion is that I'd Waze detects that I'm parking or not driving for over a minute or so, it should automatically suspend the navigation activity and enable screen shutdown and sleep until user starts driving again.6 votes -

icons on map view
When I am looking at my three route options, the List view shows my small icons representing events on my suggested paths. But, when I switch to Map view - when I want to SEE what's going on where - those same icons are nowhere to be found.
Having the event icons on the map view (when choosing a route) would help me make a more informed decision on which route to choose because I can see for certain how traffic, accidents, etc. will impact each route and which makes more sense (based upon prior experience on those roads).
Thanks! :)

Enable option for Photos taken of places to be uploaded later when WIFI network is possible...
Enable option for Photos taken of places to be uploaded later when Wifi is possible for users, since in this way we are saving mobile internet quota or having bad internet network true mobile network.
I had taken several photos of places but could not upload it at the time since mobile network was not so good, or I spent all my internet quota for that month.6 votesAdminElla (Waze Team) (Admin, Waze) responded

Add a random voice option to keep things interesting on long trips
On long trips, the same voice and sayings get old pretty quick. By adding a random voice option, it would be fun to hear what the next voice and saying is each time

'Wazers Around Me' and 'Reports'
I like the idea of getting 'Wazers Around Me' and 'Reports' on 'start-up' of the app. However, it seems its the ONLY time this information is available. Is there a quick way of getting this info AFTER the app has been activated and in use?

Véhicules "dangereux"
Dans l'espace DANGER pouvoir grâce à un bouton signaler un véhicule dangereux en circulation (ex en pleine nuit absence d'éclairage ,conduite en état d'ébriété ,chargements défaillants etc.....)

Baustellen und andere Ereignisse sollten nach der Fahrt mit einem Tip auf den jeweiligen Ort nachtragbar sein. Wenn ich alleine unterwegs bin, kann ich nicht mal eben die App bedienen (weder mit dem Bike noch dem Auto- ist sicherer).

Make the police position unavailable during terrorist attack
Hello,
I suggest that waze suppress the police position in case of terrorist attack. Indeed, I am French and was in Paris last Friday 13th of November. On Saturday morning I went in the north when saw a suspicious car with black window that was going very fast and was dangerous for other cars. It may be the 8th terrorist that the police didn't caught yet. I saw this car leaving the main road just before the police could have arrest this car. May be it was not a terrorist but there should be some specific case during which the police position should be unavailable depending of waze decision to do so, especially during terrorist attack.
Thank you for your support all around the world.PrayForParis
