Enable audio alert for speed cams regardless of the speed.
Waze currently only triggers audio alerts about speed cams when the driver is above the speed limit of the specific cam.
Since the speed detection on Waze is very flawed (at least here in Brazil/Rio de Janeiro), and not all cams have their speed limit properly set, it would be MUCH better if Waze triggered it's audible alert for speed cams independently of the fact that the driver may be above or below the limit of the cam.
Thank you.
And keep up the good work!
Great news! The audio alert for speed camera regardless of the speed is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Try setting your "Speeding threshold" setting to "At speed limit" rather than any of the other values. That seems to help the sensitivity.

It alerted me to speed camera up until a few weeks ago, then it stopped. I see other people are having the same issue. Why are notifications always audible?

Deberían activar una opción para avisar siempre de los radares, incluso circulando por debajo del límite, ya que muchas veces se inicia un adelantamiento y puede exceder el límite en ese momento y al no avisar te pueden sancionar. Ademas otros vehículos tienen limitaciones más bajas que el propio límite de la vía, como es el caso de furgonetas o vehículos mixtos.

Just make a toggle for the current setting and an "always warn"

Please add this feature as it is very much needed on roads/motorways with variable speed limits.

Not sure why not here. -

Speed cameras
I would like to have AUDIO speed camera alerts at all driving speeds.
In the UK we have some variable speed limit zones on our motorways, so although the normal motorway speed limit is 70mph, the limit can be changed at any time down to lower speed limits - down as low as 40mph.
Waze alerts you on the map, but only gives you an AUDIBLE alert if you are over the normal / top speed limit of 70mph.
It is easy to miss a changed speed limit sign and then be caught by a speed camera, if for example, the limit is 40, but the previous variable limit sign was 50.
Audible alerts for all cameras, irrespective of current speed would be very beneficial. -

I'm in the UK and although Waze often picks up speed cameras it doesn't always verbally announce they are coming up which is very annoying. Secondly on the map you get a radiating sign from a speed camera upcoming but it is in pale blue so almost invisible. All upcoming speed cameras need to flash red on the centre of your map and be accompanied by a verbal warning.

Avisar siempre de un radar, aunque la velocidad del vehículo sea inferior. Y además avisar con pitidos intermitentes si se supera.
Tal y como hacen la mayoría de los dispositivos avisadores de radar.
Que sea una opción de activación configurable por el usuario, ya que puede ser que no a todo el mundo le guste. -

Waze isn't aware of temporary speed restrictions. I have these a lot on my route which makes Waze quite frustrating to use right now

I spend more time looking at the map than the road if another app comes out i will give up waze

It would be more than convenient for speed camera alerts to have an audible warning even when the speed limit is not exceeded.

Absolutely 100% needed! At least given as an option.

There should be options to warn always | when over the limit | never

This is crucial! Without having an option to always have a sound alert when a speed camera/police is nearby I have to keep glancing over at the map which is dangerous as it draws my attention away from the road.
Please add this feature ASAP waze! -
