Abuse of Waze reports in Ukraine during wartime
Hello Waze Team,
I am writing regarding a growing misuse of Waze reporting features in Ukraine during wartime.
A significant number of users are currently using police/hazard reports and coded markers to identify and share locations of mobile mobilization checkpoints and territorial recruitment patrols. In practice, Waze is being used not for traffic safety, but as a tool to coordinate avoidance of lawful wartime mobilization measures.
Many of these reports are intentionally disguised with slang or coded wording in order to bypass moderation while still being understood locally by users.
This creates several problems:

Critical next turn alert
The Problem
Many users disable or tune out standard turn-by-turn voice navigation because it can feel repetitive or intrusive during routine parts of a drive. However, missing a specific "critical" exit - especially on highways or in rural areas - can lead to massive detours, often adding 10–20 minutes to a trip.
The Solution: Critical Turn Alerts
A smart notification system that triggers only when missing the upcoming turn would result in a significant delay. This allows users to enjoy a quieter drive while ensuring they are alerted before a "point of no return."

Most Used Road Traffic Alerts
They should make a system of where if there’s traffic on your Most drived Roads Or Highways it should display a notification or alert once opening the app or when driving, if you know what i mean, I think it’s a neat idea.

Allow thumbs down in alerts nearby that are wrong or when tou missed clicking in time
I want to be able to click on an alert and have a way of saying that the condition is no longer there to save others this pain of a longer/slower route.
Background: We were routed to a slower parallel route because of old alerts for standstill traffic. We had full view of the interstate and there was no traffic jam. Our rerouted waze route had construction with flaggers and was several minutes slower

Critical alerts only
Many users choose to turn off voice navigation in Waze because the alerts can be frequent and distracting—especially on familiar or long drives where there’s no need to hear every turn, lane change, or minor update.
The problem is that once voice guidance is disabled, it becomes easy to miss a critical turn. Sometimes missing a turn has little impact, but in other cases it can extend the trip by 10, 20, or even 30 minutes.
The proposed solution is to introduce a new alert mode: “Critical Alerts Only.”
In this mode, Waze would not provide voice instructions for every…

התראות קריטיות במסלול
כיום הרבה משתמשים מכבים את ההנחיות הקוליות ב-Waze, משום שהן עלולות להיות תכופות ומציקות — במיוחד בנסיעות מוכרות או ארוכות, שבהן אין צורך לשמוע כל פנייה, שינוי נתיב או עדכון קטן.
הבעיה היא שכאשר ההנחיות הקוליות כבויות, קל לפספס פנייה קריטית. לפעמים פספוס כזה לא משנה כמעט כלום, אבל לפעמים הוא עלול להאריך את המסלול ב-10, 20 או אפילו 30 דקות.
ההצעה היא להוסיף מצב התראות חדש: “התראות קריטיות בלבד”.
במצב הזה Waze לא תתריע קולית על כל פנייה, אלא רק כאשר אי־ביצוע ההנחיה הקרובה צפוי לגרום לעיכוב משמעותי במסלול.
לדוגמה:
אם פספוס הפנייה הקרובה יאריך את המסלול בדקה —…1 vote -
construction zone stays until construction finishes option
add start/end date option for long-term construction zones
Many road construction and lane reduction projects remain active for days or weeks, but Waze temporary reports disappear after only a few hours.
This creates a major issue because users must repeatedly re-report the same construction zone every day, and once the alert disappears Waze begins routing traffic directly through that delayed area again.
Example: if a city construction sign clearly states lane closure or road work for 30 days, users should be able to submit a construction report with an optional expiration date or duration.
Suggested improvement:

Hi Police Officer here, I like seeing people posting officer locations
Hi, police officer here. I like seeing people posting officer locations. It encourages people to slow down. It's beneficial in high-traffic/complaint areas. This results in fewer crashes and fewer complaints. With that in mind, could an alert or notification be implemented that notifies users/drivers of an approaching speed limit change and when it changes? I know the speed limit indicator changes, perhaps something a little more flashy.

Background Safety & Enforcement Alerts
Add an opt-in "Background Mode" that alerts drivers to speed cameras, red-light cameras, and police presence even when the app isn't being used for navigation.
This would provide "passive protection" for daily commutes where a driver knows the route but still wants to be notified of real-time road hazards. To save battery, the feature could automatically activate only when the phone detects it is connected to a vehicle's Bluetooth.1 vote -
Alerter si destination est fermée (si magasin, ou administration)
Alerter si la destination est fermée (si magasin, ou administration), en se basant des horaires d'ouverture du magasin ou de l'administration sur google.
Autrement dit, si je mets l'adresse du service des impôts dimanche matin, eh ben je reçois une petite notif ou alerte pour me dire que votre destination semble être fermée aujourd'hui.
§ Autre exemple: je tape l'adresse du centre médical dentaire de ma ville à 19h30, je reçois de la même façon une alerte pour me prévenir que le centre est fermé à cette heure-ci.
Bien sur en se basant sur les horaires communiqués sur google.1 vote -
Radar notifications on smartwatcheS
Assunto: Sugestão de funcionalidade: Alertas de radar em smartwatches
Olá equipe do Waze,
Sou um usuário frequente do Waze e realmente aprecio os recursos do aplicativo, especialmente a navegação e os alertas em tempo real durante a condução.
Gostaria de sugerir uma nova funcionalidade que pode melhorar significativamente a segurança e a praticidade: uma melhor integração entre o Waze e smartwatches em geral.
Ideia da funcionalidade:
Durante a navegação, alertas importantes — especialmente alertas de radares — poderiam ser enviados diretamente para o smartwatch como notificações com vibração (haptic), sem que o motorista precise olhar para o celular.Por que…

Zone scolaire
Je vois qu'il y a des zones scolaires indiqué sur des routes à Ottawa, comment pouvons-nous signaler pour ajouter sur les routes côté Gatineau QC et ailleurs dans la province? Souvent ces zones sont en vigueur 10 mois de l'année et seulement entre 7:00 et 17:00. Ça rendrait ces zones plus sécuritaire (au cas où le conducteur a manqué la signalisation / pancarte) et du coup éviterait aussi de recevoir un constat d'infraction routier.
