I would love to see Waze on the Samsung Gear S3.
As far as I can tell, the Gear S3 can be purchased with a Data plan via AT&T, so theoretically it would be possible to use Waze on a smart watch with both GPS and Data. I would absolutely pay for a smartwatch version of your app, as would many other people! Having my phone out to use Waze when commuting daily is a bit cumbersome, but using it on a smart watch just to keep an eye out for traffic / police would make me use it every time I step foot in my car. I truly hope you guys are working on a smartwatch version of Waze, even if it is a paid app, I'm sure many of us would purchase it.
Thank you for your suggestion!
We are currently not planning on adding Samsung Gear support.
Stay tuned for more feature updates on Waze’s blog and social pages on Facebook and Instagram.

Push notifications to the watch, best tool for motorcycles ever!

Please make an app for Samsung Galaxy S3 smart watch. While an adress is plugged in, it could give you the next turning instruction. When police or vehicles on the shoulder are reported, you swipe left or right to give it a thumbs up or make it disappear. While you just driving without navigation, I could have your speed with the posted speed limit on there th help prevent drivers from speeding! All the while keeping hands on the wheel and eyes on the road!

Agree! I have a Samsung Galaxy watch and having the Waze app on there for when I'm on my bike would make it a whole lot better.

Yes, please! Like mentioned, notifications only would be great. No need for full features, and with the new Galaxy Smartwatch running Tizen, it won't be obsolete for the next year or two, at least. I would pay for the app, myself.

I think just a "companion" app on the phone would suffice. I don't think we'd need the full app; just some "enhanced notifications" like...road hazards, upcoming turn, police ahead, etc.
The phone would have to be running the full app and the watch would receive those enhanced notifications

You absolutely need to release a smartwatch app for Gear 3! We don't have any that are worth a crap and WAZE is THE premier navigation app!
