  1. Been using Waze for a few years now & was reviewing the comments & was a little surprised!!

    This past Thursday (Thanksgiving day) we were traveling North from San Diego to the Newport Beach area when I was given a reroute, and a friend of mine was following and he wasn't using Waze (but Google Maps) but he followed me and later thanked me because the traffic had stopped completely and he saw the bad accident & delay. We were able to save ourselves a good 20 minutes by going around the accident that was on the freeway. Of course it was very helpful as we were running behind schedule anyway so this was a good experience for…

    Hi,

    I live in Northern Virginia in the Washington DC suburbs. Many of my trips take me around the DC Beltway and on other roads that have "Hot Lanes." The Hot Lanes generally operate next to the regular lanes, but being toll lanes, sometimes move faster, which is why some people use them. 

    Most of the time, I don't use Hot Lanes because most of the time, they don't get me there appreciably faster and are not worth the money. There have, however, been times when I would have liked to have known how much time I could save by…

  3. Left hand HOV Lanes

    Waze does not reliably suggest HOV lanes. When HOV lanes are dedicated, Waze will regularly suggest them when selecting an HOV route, but when it's a permissive lane (separated by dashed lines rather than separated by a physical barrier), Waze will not suggest the lane most of the time.

    When a Wazer selects an HOV route, permissive HOV lanes should be suggested.

  4. Designated Trip Comparison

    I have several ways I can get to work. It would be handy to save them as designated trips which I could check to see which is the fastest way on any particular day this avoiding traffic jams

  6. The “Leave at a later time” feature DOES NOT WORK

    The “Leave at a later time” feature DOES NOT WORK. It DOES NOT save the destination, and DOES NOT alert me when it’s time to go. I don’t recall whether it ever did, but certainly never my iPhone 12 with iOS 16.x.x or (now) 17.1.1. Wish it did—it would be very convenient

  7. erreur d'adresse sur le site

    Je suis commerçant d'une boutique Pieces Et Pneus.com à REZE (44400 - France) j'ai déménagé il y a maintenant plus d'un an, et je deplore qu'à ce jour l'adresse apparaissant sur votre site n'est toujours pas actualisée. l'ancienne adresse était 21 Place Pierre Sémard 44400 Rezé et l'actuelle est maintenant PIECES ET PNEUS.com 22 avenue Louise Michel 44400 REZE, je poste ce message car trop nombreuses sont les personnes qui sont encore dirigés vers la mauvaise adresse.
    Je vous remercie pour l'attention que vous voudrez bien m'accorder.

  9. Customized Price/Time rate for routes calculation

    Now Waze always propose an option of routes without toll which is good, but not enough for me
    Indeed, very often there is a compromise between full toll and no toll being relevant and worthy (cheaper than full toll, faster than no toll)

    To improce the relevency of the routes proposal an adjustable ratio price/time should be considered

    For exemple, for a ratio 1€/min, a toll road at 16€ for 20 min gain will be proposed but not another at 12€ for 10min gain compared to no toll option

  10. Suggest safest itineraries in case of floods

    It would be useful for Waze to default to safest routes (ie, least prone to flooding based on historical data which I am sure exists) in case of such weather events (even just suggest it in case it has been raining heavily in the last few days in a given area). The report flood button is not enough - how do I know the alternative itinerary I choose will be better or if no one has yet reported a flood?
    It is becoming increasingly necessary given the climate events the world faces.

  11. Leave by

    I suggest a "leave by" time as an option similar to the "arrive by" times displayed under the "leave later" when route selecting. For example, if I plan to leave at precisely 4pm (currently 320pm) it would display how long it would take and change as I scrolled through 430pm, 5pm, etc. I haven't seen anything on that yet, unless I missed it. Thanks for the user friendly, simple app, keep it up!

  12. waze travel

    I guess all road travelers would like the following idea.
    It won't be a bad idea if Waze adds an option or button called Waze Travel where the app suggests hotels Airbnb or camping areas for users when they have to travel for more than 8 hours so the distance can be cut in half.
    for example if I am traveling from a country to another and I have more than 8h hours on the road it takes me time to divide the distance locate the road I am tacking and then find hotels around the area.
    so that would…

  14. Additional stop for refueling

    While travelling with Waze, in a trip that's over X km/mi, there could be a button on the screen next to the reporting button, that automatically adds a gas station as a stop with the least detour from your original trip. So for example it would help out while driving and noticing you are low on fuel, you would push the button, and a stop for the nearest gas station in the next X km/mi would be inserted into your trip.

  16. Improve routes in Sonoma County CA

    I have been in Sonoma County for 3 months using Waze. Its route planner seems to only used time to determine routes, and sends me over roads with no signal lights at the next turn, blind corners at the turn, and rough roads with active repair work, roads in desperate need of repaving, etc, that save less than 5 minutes on my trip. It should chose routes with signals for left hand turns across highways, turns with no signal at blind corners, and avoid active roadwork. Saving 2 or 3 minutes isn't worth the risk of unprotected turns and potholed…

  17. Neccessary vignette

    When y go to a destination requiring multiple vignettes, instead of saying you need vignettes and then can't find a way there, show the list of necessary vignette, or even better automatically complete the vignette list and then show the way
    The list to choose freely from is very wide and can't find all y need

  18. Reinstate how many minutes off route

    Until recently, I could enter my destination and then enter Starbucks (or any other business) as a secondary destination on the way. Waze would then show all the Starbucks on the way and how many minutes off route each Starbucks stop was. I don't know why you would take away such a helpful and important feature. Please reinstate this feature

  20. Ad "best noted" route or "tourist mode"

    Linking waze maybe with trip afvisor or something to help tourist not to miss a interesting place or suggestions a few km close to his route.
    So as you could have:
    the shortest route -distance
    The less time route - time
    the cheapest one -tolls
    Or The more intereresting route based on POI and or user's notes or something like that.
