Time zone adjustment
Waze should adjust ETA to the local time when destination is a different time zone. When you leave Phoenix for southwest CO, for example, the ETA should be in mountain time, not AZ time. Currently, the ETA only adjusts when your phone automatically adjusts as you cross the time zone. It would be nice to know drive time is 6 hours, but ETA is 7 hours due to time change.

Such a major bug and presumably simple fix that I've been reporting for years. It makes the arrival time useless when travelling across time zones. I'm sure many people who don't know about this bug make plans with friends at their destination in a time zone east of theirs not knowing that they'll be an hour late until it's too late.

I totally agree… been using Waze more and more and slowly stopping using google but this is now making me want to stop using Waze and use GMaps again. I mean come on… the excuses I have heard from Waze on why they don’t do this are lame. If all other big time navigation companies can do it (GMaps AppleMaps Etc…) then Waze could implement this also. Come on Waze you were doing so good and now this? It’s a feature that we should have access to. If you need to make a disclaimer and also make it where a user can turn on or off then do it. It’s just a total no brained in my opinion 🤨🤨🤨🤨

I agree! Waze you need fix this ASAP! Apple and Google already do this, why are you all so far behind?

You would think that when you plan a drive and you have to enter the arrival time of your choice that it would take into account different time zones. So if I want to arrive to my destination at 5:45 PM, clearly I mean that time zone. Waze keeps it in the same time zone and unless you are paying super close attention, it’s easy to miss and then you lose an hour because you leave too late if you are going from Central to Eastern and so on and so forth. I’d change that ASAP because it’s a pretty big downfall as other navigation apps do show the correct time zones and Waze does not in this regard.

כאשר בוחרים מסלול נסיעה המערכת מראה את הזמן המשוער להגעה ליעד. ההצעה שלי היא להוסיף את זמן הנסיעה בפועל עם ההגעה ליעד וכך לאפשר השוואה בין הזמן המשוער בהתחלה לזמן שלקח בפועל.

When traveling across time zones, it would be good if the arrival time reflected the time zone of where you are arriving.

ETA is not correct when changing time zones. I travel for a living, and I always use this app, but the ETA is wrong every time

I’m traveling across time zones. Can you make the ETA show the arrival time in the time zone I’m traveling to??

While navigating from state to state, in the US especially, sometimes your starting point and ending point of a trip are in two different time zones. Having the end trip time indicator take that into account would be very helpful in planning trips.

We’re driving across time zones so why wouldn’t the place of arrival reflect that.? It gave us our local (departure) time instead. Put a wrench in our meeting time.

As a developer myself, this is an obvious and necessary feature and not hard to implement. Hard to believe it is not included.

Agreed. It seems old fashion/low tech without this feature.

Waze should really adjust the time zone so you know you are losing or gaining an hour. Or at least warn you.

This really messed me up for a family get together. Crossed the state line and boom lost an hour ETA. Please, fix.
