  1. Define better routes based on vehicle type

    EN
    Good afternoon, how are you?

    First I would like to congratulate everyone for the excellent solution, what a fantastic technology built that allows the WAZE APP to bring countless benefits to all types of drivers.

    But you know that the more technology to make life easier, the dumber the users become and because of this I realize that in the day to day traffic, many people without proper experience doing a lot of shaving and because of that, I would like to suggest some improvements to the solution/technology.

    Problem: I currently live in a historic city where many of…

  2. LInk up with Highways Management

    HI Waze. I'm guessing you already have a link up with the Highways Management Team. Do they fail to tell you all the work they're doing? Driving home last night there was a large closure (M11 turn off on the M25) which wasn't on Waze and wasn't on any of the M25 warning boards either. Seems odd that it wasn't on either seeing as it was coned off and clearly involved planned works.

  3. Smart Routing for Buses and Trucks - A Must-Have Feature for Waze

    Hello Waze Team,

    I would like to suggest adding a dedicated navigation mode for buses and trucks, with routing that takes large vehicle limitations into account.

    Today, Waze is excellent for private cars, traffic updates, and real-time navigation, but it can be very problematic for buses and heavy vehicles, especially in Israel and particularly in the Tel Aviv area.

    Many streets are extremely narrow, have sharp turns, low clearances, weight restrictions, or are simply not suitable for large vehicles. As someone who works in tourism and frequently travels with tourist buses, I have personally experienced situations where Waze directed our…

  4. Please find a way without adjusting my phone, android, to increase the font on the turn directions in the black box in the top left corner.

    Make the street names that appear right below the car icon larger in addition to the turn-by-turn directions in the black box in the top left corner. Also if I'm going somewhere and I want to search for a new location it shouldn't come up with no results it should ask if I want to cancel the current route and

  6. Setting for toll road suggestion

    Have a setting in the app, where you can request a minimum time savings before the app gives you toll road suggestions. For example, only provide toll road options. If the time savings is 10 minutes or more. I do not need toll options when it’s only going to save me three minutes.

  7. Toll Roads - Variable Toll Avoidance

    Summary: An additional check box in navigation in settings, that turns off variable tolls only leaving the Tolls that don't change prices.

    I'm surrounded by Toll roads in DFW, but they have these awful Toll roads that change to be like 20$ on Friday's after work. basically taking advantage of busy times to squeeze money out of us. I don't mind using the toll roads that I know the price of, the ones' with fixed pricing. But these drive me up a wall, so I usually end up setting it to show tolls and then if I see the toll…

  8. Add option to select routes that have reduced exposure to the headlights of oncoming traffic at night

    Add a driving preference/option that selects routes that have reduced exposure to the headlights of oncoming traffic at night to reduce glare and halos. In addition to generally avoiding busy streets, the route chosen might prioritize two-lane roads so the driver can get into the right lane, thereby moving farther away from oncoming traffic. Older drivers hate driving at night so this is a big opportunity to potentially attract new users.

  10. Cheapest route (including the cost for my time)

    Sometimes I want to take the fastest route possible, but most times I want to take the cheapest route. By cheapest route, I mean one that includes a cost for my time as well as fuel, depreciation, and tolls.

    I live in a part of Austin where the fastest route is often a highway that goes the long way around, but there is a slightly slower route that is direct. I'm willing to take 2 more minutes to drive if it saves 7 miles on my car. The US govt. puts the price of a mile on a car at…

  13. Toll maximum.

    My routes that are usually within a few minutes of eachother are USD 2.42, 2.42, and .82 If I could set "pay no more than" 1.50. I would get 1.32 & .82 routes along with a quickest non-toll. This would be very helpful daily avoiding only getting the more expensive marginally quicker routes and while traveling in cities with many tolls.

  15. Limite de valor de portagens

    Olá,
    Venho sugerir ter uma opção do valor máximo de portagens a pagar numa viagem.
    Atualmente apenas posso optar por viagem com ou sem portagens.
    O que estou a sugerir é num trajecto com portagens de 50 euros (por exemplo) ter opção de portagens mas até 15 euros (exemplo). O Waze criaria o melhor trajeto com portagens mas o custo total não iria além do valor pré definido 15 euros (exemplo).
    Obrigado por esta maravilha (Waze)

  16. Add road closures when not on a route

    Android and Car Play do not let you mark road closures while driving. In large cities, WAZE is often inaccurate because of the number of event road closures that go unreported. Please add a feature to add road closures for non-drivers and off-route drivers in large cities.

  17. Construction Closure: Intersections

    I was thinking about how we can close roads on WME. It would be nice to be able to close multiple roads or just an intersection by drawing something like a junction box and then being able to set parameters. Sometimes Just an intersection will be closed for construction but you can still drive up to the construction to get to your destination. If it could just close within the box-

  18. Caminhao

    Boa tarde.
    Sou motorista de caminhão e use rotineiramente o app Waze. Porém muitas vezes me vejo em situações difíceis porque o aplicativo me manda para rotas onde e proibido o tráfego de caminhões ou em vias difíceis de transitar com esse tipo de veículo. Algumas vezes o aplicativo me tira da rodovia para transitar por dentro da cidade.
    Então venho até vocês (Desenvolvedores) sugerir que seja colocado nas configurações do app o ícone de caminhão e que tbm tenha rotas para transitar fora dos grandes centros evitando rotatórias pequenas e ruas estreitas em bairros.
    Obrigado.

  20. I select avoid freeways and Waze still takes me the quickest. I would like to use the back roads, scenic routes. I’m not in a hurry.

    Back roads/scenic routes. Not everyone enjoys driving on the freeway/highway. I do use interstates but often want to use the back roads/scenic routes. Especially if I’m not on a time schedule and or in my classic vehicle.
