  1. BRING BACK THE SEARCH FUNCTION!!!

    It used to be that if you said "navigate to Walmart" in Android Auto it would show a list of nearby walmarts and you could chose the correct one. Now it just routes you to some random one that is often not even close to the one you intended. It routed me to a Top Golf 8h away once when the one I was trying to get to was 10min. Its like they are trying to get people off the app deleting critical functions.

  2. Unable to fill search field from result

    When typing an address for a search it shows autocomplete results which are perfect but if you want to extend one of the search results in the search field then not possible. So there must be an option with each item in searched list to get the result and fill in the search box so later can add more in it. At the moment it’s downright annoying.

    Seria ótimo se o app tivesse uma atualização que informasse os postos de combustíveis que têm GNV, pois muitos motoristas (pelo menos no Brasil) têm carros movidos a gás.

  4. filter search results

    I suggested this back in May, but it's not got any traction so I'm suggesting it again because I really need this to be done:

    PLEASE add the ability to filter/block search results!

    I lose a lot of time because I have to keep plugging in the entire address in order to find the one that's twenty minutes away.

    If I don't, there is a real possibility that I'll end up driving to the United States because those results always seem to come up first.

    I NEVER - I repeat: "NEVER!" - will be driving in the United States, especially…

  5. Colorize favorite search results

    Favorites have a grey star icon in results. For me this is almost unnoticeable and confuses me for a while every time.

    Using a different color or background color for favorites in search results would make it much clearer for me and easier to use.

  7. Where you'll be along route at a certain time

    I'm on a 34 hour road trip currently and it occurred to me that it would be nice to see where exactly along the route we'll be at a certain time. For example, I just drank a coffee and need to find a bathroom 1.5 hours away. A sliding scale to select that time frame and see what destinations are around would be great!

  8. Glp, República Dominicana

    Hola, equipo de Waze:

    Les escribo desde República Dominicana, donde es muy común el uso de vehículos que funcionan con Gas Licuado de Petróleo (GLP). Sería de gran utilidad que la aplicación incluyera la opción de visualizar estaciones de GLP y sus precios, tal como se hace con otros tipos de combustible.

    Esta funcionalidad ayudaría a miles de conductores locales a planificar mejor sus rutas y gastos, y haría que Waze sea aún más relevante en nuestro país.

    Gracias por considerar esta sugerencia. ¡Saludos desde RD!

  9. When searching for a location - do not show straight line miles/"as the crow flies" miles as this is not useful.

    This makes you think "ah, it's not too far" but when real driving miles are shown... it is sometimes double the miles! So straight line miles is useless

  11. If I Search for Home Depot and there are 10 stores within my area, please list them in order of driving time

    Search Sort order should allow choice for by driving time. So if I’m choosing which store to go to for a chain store that has multiple locations and it’s rush hour, I can choose the quickest one to get to, which is not necessarily the closest.

  12. Улучшение поиска адресов: добавьте ввод номера дома

    Хотелось бы предложить улучшение функционала ввода адреса для более удобного и быстрого использования. Сейчас, при вводе первых букв улицы, приложение предлагает выбрать её название, но после выбора сразу перенаправляет на карту с кнопкой “начать маршрут”. Это неудобно, если нужен конкретный номер дома.

    Предложение:
    После ввода первых букв и выбора названия улицы, вместо переноса на карту, лучше вставлять полное название улицы в строку поиска, чтобы пользователь мог сразу добавить номер дома. Например:
    1. Я ввожу первые буквы улицы.
    2. Выбираю нужное из списка.
    3. Полное название улицы автоматически вставляется в строку поиска, и я могу сразу дописать номер дома.
    4. После…

  13. Refined Searches Along my Route

    I oftentimes use the search tool to find places along my route.
    It would be great to limit results within X miles of my current location and no more than a Y-minute detour off my route. I sometimes get results that are hundreds of miles away. It’s not very helpful.

  16. Stop reversing coordinates formats in Waze Live Map

    When you paste coordinates from Google Maps to Waze Live Map, what's long on Google Maps becomes Lat and vice versa. This is not the case for WME or Waze app. Can it be the same to facilitate search?

  17. Location vs route in search

    It's super annoying that when I search a location, if I've never navigated to it, I can tap on it to see its info card, where if I have navigated there before, I can only start a route to that location. The only way for me to see the info card is to search and then look around the map for the location I want, if it even finds it, and tap on the map. The listed results should be just locations, unless you've navigated there recently, then show two options, one to route and one to see the info…

  18. Search certain area

    When trying to find a spot on the map, there should be an option to update the search area. Google let us manually update it, and Apple does it automatically. I don't see why Waze users should not have this essential feature for navigating new places. Thank you

  20. Add a “RETURN TO START POINT” option that will guide users back to the point in which they started.

    Add a “RETURN TO START POINT” option that will guide users back to the point in which they started.

    I dropped a friend off at work during my first visit to Detroit, so I could use her car for the day. I used Waze to navigate away from her job, but her phone doesn’t work in
    the office and I have no way of contacting her to get the address to her job. It would be great to just go into Waze and select “RETURN TO START POINT” and have Waze navigate me back seamlessly! This would be a Fanta…
