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.
Hey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2023 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to have it included in our plans for later years and will keep you posted.
Thanks!

I agree. Would seem to be a necessary feature for those crossing time zones regularly.

This would actually be really helpful for the new Planned Drives feature.

This would be a really great feature. Any idea when Waze will start working on it? Thanks.

I 100% agree! I have to make relatively short trips (less than 3hrs) in between time zones for work all the time and it is always a headache to figure out when I need to leave to make it to my meetings in time. Would be a really helpful tool for me and others.

It's very confusing to be in a different time zone & have waze still report in home time zone I.e. I'm in Chicago & waze adds an hour to all my destinations.

There seems to be a bug whwre the ETA box does not indicate the adjusted time for DST shifts.
The ETA shown when planning a route however, shows the correct time.
This is on the BB10 version. -

I live near the line between Eastern and Central time. I'd really like the estimated time of arrival to take time zones into account. Right now, my arrival time jumps up by an hour when I go from CDT to EDT and down an hour when I go the other way.
