Offer a satellite view of the map.

I like how Google maps gives me the satellite view. Why doesn't Waze do that?

Thank you for this idea!
We will not be adding a satellite layer to the client. Waze is trying to provide the best driving experience which is smooth and simple and provide drivers with the right amount of information needed to get to places. While satellite layer is great to have for exploration and panning “offline”, we don’t think it’s going to benefit drivers on the go that much and therefore we’re not going to move in that direction in the foreseeable future.

    Def satellite view is needed to be competitive

    I use satellite view ALL THE TIME. I find it extremely useful when finding a good location and finding the right house number. Satellite view NEEDS ato be added. 10/10 would use it!

    Have an arrow icon option for motorcycles.
    Have a satellite view like Google.
    Have the option to change or put where an added stop goes, not just before an initial endpoint.

    Please add satellite view to waze. You already use Google maps why not add satview?

    This is what I've been saying for years. I remember suggesting it to the Waze admin as well.
