Saving fuel and increase brake pads lifetime
On German highways there are often speed limit changes from unlimited to 130km/h or less. So if I drive for example 200km/h and see the speed limit sign and i go completly off throttle and my car reduces speed to about 180km/h until i reach the sign. So I have to break fast from 180 to 130km/h or less. This is big wear for my brake pads. To get a longer lifetime of my brakes and to get a smoother driving I wish to get a message 1 or to 2km before the speed sign (only on highways when speed…

Enter hazard at another location
Allow someone to enter a new hazard and place it at another location. There is a common speed trap near my house that I would like to enter a hazard for when the cops are ticketing

android auto - location of icons
It would be great if the location of icon is on the side of where the driver seated. For example, if Waze is used in USA, the icons should be on the left side of the screen. If waze is used in India, icons should be on the right side of the screen. If not all icons can be moved around, at least the speed and speed limit icons placement would be good enough. That way a driver do not have to reach farther for an action or look further to see the speed/speed limit.

Traffic alerts
I think I will be a good idea for the app to have traffic alerts. Not just saying traffic reported ahead. Based on the speed limit the app to tell you to slow down because of traffic. It will be extremely useful on highways. For example, a kilometer ahead to display/announce such warning and recommendation to slow down. Therefore, drivers will not have to stop abruptly and accidents might be prevented.

STOP 180° car rotation when standing still
So I come to a stop light, and after a while, my car and map (not the screen) rotates, I guess, as it thinks I actually did make a U turn. Problem is my speed is 0km/h. It happens even when you have a destination to navigate to, and then, all of u sudden, I'm turned around and I'm being shown to make first to the right. I start driving, the whole thing rotates ones again, and I miss my left turn !?!?! I think it's because it get's a satellite position which shifted a bit, so it thinks that…

Allow crucial specifications for everybody
Every truckdriver and caravan driver is desperately waiting for Waze to launch the ability to:
1. Define these type of vehikels
2. Define speed restrictions (like allowed speed 80 or 90 km/hour)
3. Have local weather info om the waze screen
This would expand the use of Waze immensely. Waze would be much more attractive to advertisement AND we would be more than willing to pay for a ‘pro verspin’ with these crucial features!5 votes -
Speedometer colors
I’d like to see the ability to change the speedometer numeral and background colors, especially when over the speed limit. Red numerals on a black background are difficult for me to read.

Add an option to change where the alert is displayed on your phone screen (eg. speed cameras) from the bottom or top of your phone screen
Add an option to change where the alert is displayed on your phone screen (eg. speed cameras) from the bottom or top of your phone screen. As i find that for me when the alert is on the bottom i miss it due to the placement of my phone in the phone holder so if it was on the top of the screen that would be much better for me personally so give users the option to change where the alert is displayed on screen.

UK / Android camera notices need fixing.
UK camera call outs have gone to pot.
Static speed camera's are not 'Speed Trap's - a copper hiding behind a bush is a speed trap.
Used to get "speed camera reported ahead"; now a really brusque "SPEED TRAP ahead".
Average Speed Cameras are not true Speed Cameras and do not need calling out every 3 lamp posts.Can we also have the "Speed reduced ahead" warning back - really useful for the 70-40 mph drops.

Improve Waze for all (professional drivers like taxi drivers, truck drivers and bus drivers as well)
Feedback for Waze Improvements (Australia-specific but globally relevant):
1. Map and Speed Limit Accuracy
• Please update maps and speed limit data more frequently, especially in Australia where road rules and limits are often updated.
• Ensure that the speedometer always shows the correct speed limit without disappearing or failing, as this can mislead drivers and cause unintentional speeding.
• Improve reliability so the speedometer never stops working unexpectedly.
2. Audible Alerts and Driver Focus
• Introduce louder and clearer spoken alerts for every speed limit change, so drivers do not have to look at their phone…4 votes -
EV charging list filters
It would be perfect to see/sort/filter the charging list with distance (to current position, regardless of added time) availability, and charging speed. When a charger is needed, it should be possible to pick from a couple of closer, available and faster selection.

Navigation
Hello,
Would it be possible that when navigating, the overview of the route with arrow and all traffic jams and speed cameras etc, this arrow moves dynamically and shows how far away the arrow is from the construction site, speed camera or traffic jam? This works very well with the Sygic app. I think that this feature would help many drivers to get a better overview. Thank you4 votesThanks for your feedback.

Automatic zoom and popup alert
Scale slider to set automatic zoom scale/speed on map! I would like set zoom level, it is too much sudden!
Popup alert are too big! Many time is very difficult follow the route because alerts cover the map for too much time. An idea can be a banner in a side of the screen! Keep the map on the screen.
My compliments for this amazing app5 votes -

Warning for New Police / Radar / Mobile Camera Reports
Please add a warning ⚠️ to notify the driver when a new report of police, radar, or a mobile speed camera appears on their route. This will help ensure the driver is aware well in advance and stays mindful of their speed.
We live in a country that the speed signs are not well placed or exists, then the police hides in the bush and contracted a third party with hundreds of nonto police vans to hide in the bush to fine people.3 votes -
Gui issue
In an average speed controlled area the speed is partially obscured by the average speed zone indicator.
When a speed control camera is approached especially at the start of the zone, the vehicle speed is TOTALLY OBSCURED by the speed camera warning.!!
This is really annoying as this is the EXACT moment when speed awareness is critical !!1 vote -
Einstellung für vergrößerung der Tachoanzeige
Eine Einstellung womit man die Tachoanzeige vergrößern kann um die Geschwindigkeit und das Speedlimit auf kleinen Bildschirmen besser lesen zu können, wäre sehr hilfreich und würde das Autofahren mit waze nochmal sehr erleichtern
A setting that allows you to enlarge the speedometer display to be able to read the speed and the speed limit better on small screens, would be very helpful and would make driving with waze even easier

Route choice
Hello, would it be possible to add choices of route type, for example shortest or fastest. Cause now it's not clear how he tries to lead us and lately it seems it's not logical at all. For example, I was driving through Autobahn in night, where I can drive on 140km/h but waze taught it would be a great idea to change this route to a small forest road that has a 30 km/h speed limit with bumps on road.

Ghost drive
Add a feature that enables one to compete with his/her previous day journey. Like a ghost drive that shows where u were yesterday compared to the current drive. This will provide one with real time information that will assist in decision making about the speed and other alternative routes
