I don't know how these suggestions get bumped up, but this one could certainly do with a bit more attention.

On the grounds of safety alone, this would be a great idea.

I'd suggest, users should be able to customise these icons/buttons so that, rather than having to press a number of buttons to report a hazard, it can be done with just one click.

Just got to work out how to grab the developers eye now.

This is the my biggest complaint with the app. Some form of one-touch reporting for common events police reports, both lanes and generic hazards on road or shoulder need this. The other reports, like vehicle stopped on shoulder are generally useless and in all honesty people reporting these are probably making themselves a hazard.

With the increasing number of states with hands free laws time spent reporting things becomes an issue as the laws are written so that playing with anything (a phone, radio, GPS...) could be considered a violation. This is a good thing, so if you can minimize the activities and time to report that would be great!

Your method of reporting hazards is a hazard itself. It's the equivalent of sending a text. If you could have quick buttons on the screen for 'vechicle stopped on road' and 'police spotted' my life would be less at risk.

There's another thread - same topic - started a few years back. Let's not dilute votes - this is a great idea, totally agree with you!

Currently one has to tap, for example 5 times in order to report a "Hazard" like "Vehicle stopped" on the "Shoulder". No need to stress that this entails irresponsible "Hazard" on itself due to the distraction required to report. "Vehicle stopped" is the single frequent alert I am getting, so it might be worth to reduce the number of tapping. A number of other Apps do utilize simplyfied alert reporting. Thanks you in anticipation.

Please make a user-defined button available on the main screen for frequently used reports. This reduces the number of button presses it takes to report common hazards which reduces time spent looking at the app.

Since probably 19 out of 20 of my reports are vehicles on the shoulder and this requires a dangerous and distracting four button selection and push to report. How about a "hot" button in the upper right corner I could set up to report this most common situation with one button click and not even have to look at the screen?

when your driving on the highway, if you see an object on the road, (in my case a dislodged muffler) you can tap the screen and pin point the spot where it was found.

I would love if this was available. I am surprised that there was not more traffic on this issue. I wish we could somehow reinvigorate this discussion. Custom "favorites" on the home screen would be extremely helpful.

During the commute I often encounter a slowdown and would suggest your app does a couple of things:
1. very quick way to report "x of y lanes obstructed"
2. waze should "observe" my route and immediately observe all waze "fleet" and "learn" how we are either getting stuck or how we are skirting around the obstruction

It's dangerous to had to go thru various screens to find the report while driving.
Make some favorite icons on the main screen for easier and safer reporting.
After all, these reports is what makes this app great.

I think that using the report button is a safety issue.

Is it possible to get one touch button for the most used buttons?

The most common we use is the traffic, police and danger.
1 - moderate traffic
2 - visible police
3 - car on the side of the road

When you have to press the orange button then choose police then then hidden etc. It Takes time

If we could get access to reporting via API, a physical device could be built with custom buttons for simple and super-fast reporting. Example, see a road hazard on your side of road? Press a physical button. See a police car? Press a physical button. This would help others tremendously and no doubt increase the number of reports.

FREAKING TERRIBLE MAN. YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.

STOP REPORTING THIS ALERT PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would be very helpful if we could have in the Waze main navigation screen shortcuts to make reports. For example, I could configure my main screen to have 2 additional icons, one to report dense trafic and another one to report construction. A user sholud be able to:
- Configure which shortcuts should be shown in the navigation screen
- Configure the actions each icon should do
- Move freely those new icons on the navigation screen, so the user can place then wherever feels it's more comfortable
- Once the user selects the shortcut, automatically sends the report, without further confirmation

The new version is a pain to flag vehicles stopped on shoulder. The previous version I could go from "Hazard" to "Shoulder" to "Vehicle Stopped" without moving my finger on the screen. The new one forces me to move for every button.

Enquanto estamos dirigindo é difícil enviar um alerta, pois precisamos fazer 4 toques para completar a operação. Minha sugestão é criar uma parametrização e colocar um ou dois alertas favoritos na tela do mapa e conseguir enviar o alerta com apenas um toque. Isto facilitaria o compartilhamento de alertas, principalmente em estradas.

I fully agree!! I can't tell you how many times I have weaved while driving to report or not report at all because it's not safe

poster: just find out there is a voice command feature (thumb up). Ignore this suggestion. I will use voice command. Thanks again.
