Remove WORK from My Waze.
Provide option for the User to remove WORK from being one of the Where To selections in My Waze. I would imagine many users are Retired, like me, and just assume not have it 'cluttering' up the list.

Not everybody works or has a workplace away from home. There needs to be the option to remove the work button or at least move its position form the 2nd spot.

In the favorites location, please remove the category of “Work” or allow that the work category to be optional. Those of us that are retired or for those working from home, “Work” is a mandatory category that is not used and cannot be re-ordered.

I have no use for the WORK Saved Place, and it unnecessarily clutters the interface under the "Where to?" search field. Please provide an option to disable the WORK Saved Place.

Not everyone is part of the labour force, many are disabled, retired, etc. removing or allowing us to rename the permanent ‘work’ location would be a great way to be inclusive for users in these categories. Thanks!

The work shortcut is permanently present, even if 'removed". Removing only clears the address and it takes up unnecessary space on shortcuts that would have more convenient shortcut. Or, make it obey the shortcut ordering.

I now work for home and yet every morning I get notification to leave for work. A lot of people don't have a single place of work and don't want to get reminder to leave for work and yet this simple thing seems to be missing

please also make these notification settings more prominent because it is very frustrating to get unneeded notifications, especially at the start of the day

I work from home but every day Waze tells me how long it would take to get to work. I don’t want to have a work address saved at all. I have no use for it. When I select the pencil, I can’t remove the address. It only lets me put in a different address.

I cannot delete the Work saved place by long pressing. It only removes the address and not the icon. I am retired and do not have a work address and would like to use this for an address of my choosing.

Millions of Wazers work remotely or are retired. Please make this forced location removable or at least hideable.

When "Home" and "Work" are the same address (as in work from home), daily reminders that it is currently "0m to Work but that could change" are not only entirely pointless, they are annoying.

Default to not display Home and Work address. Think of it like this: you're driving colleagues to lunch on the spur of the moment. Why do they all need to know your address? Not safe for females is it? That's lawsuit territory. This is such an oversight that I've set a home address of a shop nearby. Another example; female has a date and has kept her employment information private. Gives date a lift, now date knows her address. If something happens to her, that's a pretty big lawsuit for you guys. It's showing it on the screen, to everyone in the car and anyone leaning in the window having a chat. I know where I work, I know where I live. No one else needs this information.
Secondly, the press of the current object status (that's the is it Still There? button) is probably the single most distracting event. Yes it needs to stay, but this needs to be as close to the driver side as possible. It's harder to look at the furthest side of the screen, especially when you're doing freeway speeds. Takes a couple more seconds at 100kph - and that's how many metres travelled without looking ahead?

I am also retired and don’t understand why this can’t be removed.

I’ve worked 40 years and I just retired. I love Waze, but I never want to see the word work appear again when I program in a destination and the app will not allow me to delete it and merely leave home showing! I don’t want work to appear as an option, even if its left blank. I want it gone!
It’s a big psychological step to be able to do this, wouldn’t you agree?

THIS. I am disabled and have been for over a decade. Not only do I NOT NEED a work location - the WORK location eats up a ton of space in the UI. Instead of automatically seeing my most recent destinations when I select the “where to?” field, HALF of the usable space is occupied by home and work. The remaining half is filled with the keyboard. I have to scroll up past the UNUSED (and empty) WORK field in order to find my most commonly used destinations.
I hit this issue literally every time I use the app. It is not just an inconvenience; it is a disability issue which makes the app harder to use.
I select “where to” and for less than a second I can see my last 5 destinations. Then they are obscured by the keyboard and all I can see are home and work; and work is a field I NEVER USE.
That’s nuts. I can’t believe no one considered the millions of people who do not have and do not need a “work” location !
Please make this a configurable option. I’d be happy to beta test. Sigh.

Need the ability to remove “work” location.

I work from home. This is wasted space in an otherwise very efficient and easy to use app. Please give option to hide/remove this favorite from list.

I'm retired. Don't want or need a "work" category cluttering my "where to" list. Categories should be removable.

It would 'clean up' my list - and get me to the listings that I would like to see that much sooner.

Serait-il possible de permettre à l’utilisateur de supprimer ou déplacer la case « 💼 TRAVAIL » ( entre les cases 🏠Domicile et ⭐️Lieux enregistrés ) pour les personnes qui ne travaillent plus comme les retraités ou autres... je précise que c’est la «CASE» proprement dite et non pas l’adresse correspondante
Merci d’avance
