Optimized functionalities for motorbikes

It's too bad Waze doesn't offer any of these functionalities for riders/bikers:
- deactivate traffic jams in the time calculation (or consider we are at around 50 km/h on these parts of the path)
- proposing winding/twisting roads with different levels, just like Tomtom and Garmin already do with their devices
- allowing to create more than one step point to get the perfect itinerary
- allowing the load of external files (such as .gpx for example) to create roadbooks on our computer (with Google Maps or else) and then send it to our smartphone.

In brief, just a few things that would make Waze the perfect companion for motorcyclists, which is far from the case nowadays!

    I would like to load a GPX file with a geocache or POI onto waze. Then I can select the points as destinations or I can see where they are when I drive past.

    The motorcycle community all plan routes but can’t import to gpx

    If this was added, I’d even be prepared to pay for a “premium” version.

    That's the only point missing from Waze to replace all others!
    All the motorcycle rider community will thank you for ever.

    It would definitely be great if Waze could provide navigation along a self imported gpx file!

    This would also be a valuable feature for Safety and Guard vehicles in cycling events. I would also use it in conjunction with my spouse so that she can follow the route I have planned to take while cycling from one city to another.

    I have notoced a number of suggestions for using data from Google maps. The poblem with that is Google won't licence other companies to use their data. Thats why Android auto is unable to work with Google maps, Google want you to use their system and maps.

    I'm not a motorcyclist, but as an "enthusiastic" driver I too would love to be able to import GPX routes. Because sometimes I don't want to be on the "best/fastest/most economical/shortest" route...

    Shame that importing GPX is not available in Waze.

    In Android you can get around this limitation by using other apps. GPXNav on Google Play is a good example. Its a simple app that handles GPX,and can launch Waze to navigate to any POI

    I need to import a .gpx file of the mountain trails in my area.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Ja ein gpx Import wäre für Motorradfahrer sehr genial

  • Peter commented  ·   ·  Report

    Is toch echt een must have dingetje voor een navigatie...

  • Paul commented  ·   ·  Report
