Navigation to area instead of address ניווט לאיזור במקום לכתובת ספציפית
Driving to an address to find nearby parking? Going to drop a passenger somewhere?
When navigating to a specific address (current option) you won't always get the shortest way. For example the house you want to get to is just across the street from you- wayz can take navigate you to a U turn or worse.
My suggestion- add on option "drive to area"- you put an address and radius (or make few radius options) and wayz will create the fastest way to that radius.
מחפש חניה ליד הבית? נוסע להוריד מישהו ליד כתובת? הווייז לא תמיד ייקח אותך בדרך המהירה משום שהוא מנווט לכתובת מדויקת.
לדוגמא- הכתובת שהכנסת נמצאת בצד השני של הכביש (בנתיב הנגדי), הווייז יתחיל לחפש פניית פרסה (במקרה הטוב) במקום שתחנה ותחצה את הכביש ברגל.
ההצעה שלי- הוספת אופציית "ניווט לאיזור"- המשתמש מכניס כתובת ורדיוס (או בוחר רדיוס מכמה אופציות) והווייז ינווט בדרך המהירה ביותר לתוך הרדיוס הזה.
יחסוך הרבה זמן במצטבר

Sometimes (quite frequently) it makes routes longer (in time and in distance) if Waze navigates exactly to the address. I would welcome an option, that if set, Waze would navigate to you to the closest point which is the shortest in time to reach. When this is useful?: let's say there is a big road with tram in the middle. If you stop your car on the other side, you can walk through on a zebra crossing to your destination in no time, but with car you must do a big detour to get there. You can easily lose 10 or more minutes with this, and you don't even need a traffic jam for this. So an option "Navigate to the exact location / navigate to the nearest quickly accessible point within ___ meters distance to your destination" (the number of meters also would be an option) would fasten to reach your destination. And if you chose the second option, at arrival Waze could even ask: "Want to navigate exactly to the destination?". So if you change your mind you still don't have to do much tapping on the screen...

There are times that it is much faster to get to an area than the exact place, especially because you have to park. I suggest a utility that tells you that Waze takes you the fastest way to a radius of a place: 100m, 200m, 300m from the place you want to go
Hay veces que es mucho más rápido llegar a una zona que al lugar exacto, especialmente porque hay que aparcar. Propongo una utilidad que te indique que Waze te lleve de la forma más rápida a un radio de un lugar: 100m, 200m, 300m del sitio al que quieres ir

I came here exactly for this.
Many times I drive to an area, it would be absolutely awesome to be able to define an area radius around the destination so I can get IN THE AREA much faster then do the 1 minute walk, which would be MUCH FASTER than insisting to reach certain places. -

In many cases when i drive to a given address it would have taken 4-5 minutes shorter if waze didn't want to navigate exactly to that very 5 meters of the street but anywhere within in a ~200m range - based on the traffic, the direction i am coming from, the direction i am continue my driving etc. Sometimes i have to drive 1 km or more in a traffic jam only for getting to the opposite side of a 30 meters wide street by car - it is crazy.
So i would vote for an option (maximum walking distance from the given address) and use the advantages of this feature.
