  2. block off dangerous area in South Africa

    Hi! I have been using your service for few years and absolutely love it but please could you add the feature to block the dangerous area in South Africa as well? I see that this feature is now available in Brazil and Israel but South Africa is known for it's dangerous areas and crimes and I have actually ended up in Alexandra(one of the most dangerous areas in SA) while using Waze and I absolutely freaked out.

  3. Possibility to tick an avoid country lanes box

    Overview routes are only general. A button to tick "Avoid country lanes/no name lanes) would be so useful to not go in circles, trying to find a better route towards a location. It's not always possible to avoid country lanes, but most of the times/most of the route can be at least on B roads.

  4. Motorcycle Routes

    I ride a motorcycle a make my own routes with MRA (MyRoute.App). I have used REVER, Harley Rider, Kuviger, and other programs to make motorcycle routes. Up load my designed routes to a GARMIN Zumo GPS. It does a pretty good job, but WAZES has some features that a standalone GPS does not offer. I am looking for a good navigation app like WAZE for my phone that I can upload my routes. Then I follow a specific route. Many of these routes are 100+ mile loop with a stop for a meal.

    I think WAZE would be a great…

  5. Lowest toll charges

    If the route durations are almost the same, it’ll be good if Waze can automatically place the one with the lowest toll charges as 1st option

  6. New different possible routes interface now not user friendly

    The previous way to recheck the possible different routes was way more user friendly. When the options were in list form, with one glance we could see the different possibilities and as well as details for each of those routes. With the new format we only see time to destination and no other info. Please go back to the old format. Change is not always for the better.

  8. Add the ability to see lane merges ahead of you.

    Might be nice to be shown arrows if you have a merge coming ahead of you on the route similar to how it shows lanes for exits, turns, ect.

    This can prove useful if there is traffic and you can either pre-change to avoid having to merging or can stay in the merging lane to zipper merge later saving you time.

  9. Quality of road surface w/ permanence

    Allow users to report the quality of the road surface (beyond the occasion pothole / object in the road). A crowd sourced critique of how smooth/good the road surface is that has “permanence”. Like construction notices, when planning routes out of town, this could help drivers avoid bad sections of Interstate/ State routes. Add this category to reporting button so drivers can share their assessment, recheck every mile (“still a road quality of rough?) once a driver flags the road surface as poor / rough / bumpy / etc. Not to be alerted, but to be used in route planning…

  11. Never change my NON-TOLL route to a TOLL ROUTE without my explicit permission

    We are on an extended road trip. We EXPLICITLY told Waze to avoid TOLLS. As you are driving along, Waze will pop up and suggest going the toll route because it will be faster, albeit, more expensive. If you don't happen to see the pop up and don't select "No Thanks", Waze WILL SWITCH IT AUTOMATICALLY to the TOLL ROUTE. If there's another setting to stop that, I haven't discovered it yet. You SHOULD NEVER EVER change my route just because it's faster without my explicit permission to do so.

  12. Add slippery or wet floor alerts

    It would be very useful for the driver to add slippery or wet floor alerts due to rain or oil, this helps driving safety.

  13. Rank routes by least number of minutes in traffic

    For a long drive, calculate "% of time spent in traffic" and "# of minutes spent in traffic" and include that as a criteria.

    We just stared at 3 different routes for a 4+ hour drive that had varying lengths and amount of time in stop & go traffic. We would have liked to have selected easily "the one that makes the car move the most and has the least stop & go, so we don't get car sick and our children don't wake up."

  14. Beperkte snelheid

    Graag een voertuigcategoriekeuze toevoegen: auto met aanhangwagen. Deze zou dan rekening moeten houden met lagere maxinumsnelheden en verbodsbepalingen. Erg handig voor bv vakantieverkeer met caravans/vouwwagens en beroepsverkeer (aannemers/hoveniers/etc).

  15. Ciclismo

    Gostaria de sugerir a inserção de alertas de condução avisando os condutores sobre rotas de treino de ciclismo na cidade de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais na Orla da Lagoa da Pampulha em horários específicos. estes alertas ajudariam na prevenção de acidentes e remediação de controles de velocidade e alertas de desvio de rotas aos condutores.

  17. Waze NEEDS "Bread Crumbs".

    One thing waze should have is "Bread Crumbs". I miss this feature on my old Garmin units. It basically leaves a dotted trail behind your path so you can easily find your way back without having to enter a new destination.

  18. The pervious version was better as it automatically started the drive with a count down. Now I have to confirm the route every time I start

    Also one cannot easily schedule the drive for later as before. Now one has to go through some planning workflow. The planned drives does not include the planning of ferries schedules.

  19. Mark temporary the route as blocked, unavailable, reroute options

    Add the option to mark the current route or road segment as unavailable or ability to calculate completely alternate route for the next couple of miles. I found myself multiple times on a suggested route that was closed due to roadwork, incident or event by the police for some reason. I tried to avoid it but waze kept on routing me back that blocking point… I usually have to drive random a lot of miles until the route changes enough so that I can be given an alternate route. Happened in cities, highways (due to accident ahead). This would be…

  20. Make option to avoid international borders

    Drove from Boston to Michigan and the app continuously tried rerouting us through Canada to save time! Please add an option to avoid international borders so we don't have to worry about being sent through another country if traffic builds ahead.
