Automatic Legal Mode
The Problem:
Traveling across European borders requires drivers to constantly adapt to different local traffic regulations. For example, in Germany, using apps with active speed camera and police alerts is strictly illegal (StVO § 23) and carries a 75 EUR fine. Currently, Waze forces users to manually dig deep into the settings to turn these features off when crossing the border, which is very easy to forget and puts international drivers at high risk of a penalty.
The Solution:
Please introduce an automatic "Legal Mode" or a geo-fenced feature that automatically disables speed camera and police warnings when entering countries…2 votes -
Pomiar prędkości
Przy wjeździe na odcinkowy pomiar prędkości proponuję bardzo interesujący feature - dodanie informacji jaka jest twoja średnia prędkość od rozpoczęcia odcinkowego pomiaru prędkości (może być to dodane np przy ikonce znajdowania się w odcinkowym pomiarze prędkości). Dzięki temu jestem w stanie płynnie dostosować średnią prędkość na tym odcinku. Byłoby to przydatne np. w sytuacji po wyprzedzeniu pojazdu, dzięki temu wiem o ile muszę zwolnić aby utrzymać średnią prawidłową prędkość

Przydała by się dużo większa ikonka ograniczenia prędkości. Bo jest malutka i na telefonie z oddali ciężko dopatrzeć ☺️

Gas
I took a recent driving trip from MN to WA. The gas feature was useless. It would show stations 500 miles away or show stations I passed 30 miles ago. It should know the direction I am going and you should have a button you can push to see the prices right on the map in the direction you are going. Right now the feature does me no good. Also the reason why it should display on the map like you see in has buddy is to keep your eyes on the road and not scrolling through a list. One…

Restarting Waze while connected to android auto causes light or dark mode to be wrong
If I close and reopen Waze while it is connected to android auto, Waze will open in whichever light or dark mode that my phone is set to. I have my phone set on dark mode so this causes Waze to open in dark mode if I restart it while connected to android auto. However I want it to always open in the mode that matches my car's headlights. When I first start Waze with android auto it does match my car's headlights, but not when I restart it. Is there any way to change this behavior or maybe someone…

Dynamic Color Coding for Public Transport / Bus Lanes based on Time Restrictions
In many countries , governments are creating dedicated public transport lanes (Bus Lanes). Many of these lanes have specific operating hours, meaning they are completely open to regular private cars during off-peak hours (like nights, weekends, or specific mid-day hours).However, drivers often avoid using these lanes even when it is perfectly legal to do so. This happens out of fear of getting a heavy traffic fine, or simply because they cannot read the complex roadside signs in time while driving fast. This leads to a massive waste of road infrastructure: an entirely empty lane next to a heavily congested highway.My…

When using Waze on iPhone 16 Pro in landscape mode, there is a large black bar at the top of the screen.
When using Waze on iPhone 16 Pro in landscape mode, there is a large black bar at the top of the screen. This makes using the app in landscape mode not really viable as there is a lot of wasted space. Is this something that can be fixed?
Overall, using waze in landscape has a lot of wasted space, the ETA bar takes up way too much space as well.

Add a setting for text size on map
On the 5 inch wireless bluetooth display on my bike, I can't read street names because they are just too small. If there was a text size adjustment that would help immensely.

Distance Reticle
It would be very helpful on the Waze app to have the option when scrolling away from your current position to have a marked reticle Displayed in the center of the screen and an arrow pointed toward your location with two numbers by the reticle. One for distance as the crow flies and another noting the driving distance to that reticle location. Thanks.

My problem or request is that while using the navigation, I would like to zoom in on the route occasionally. On multi-lane roads, I want to see exactly where to turn. I would like to request pinch-to-zoom functionality during navigation, if possible!"

אני מציע שתהיה אפשרות לבחור באיזה צד לשים את הכפתורים כי באוטו המסך גדול וקשה להגיע
אני מציע שתהיה אפשרות להזיז את הכפתורים לצד שמאל כיוון שכיום במכוניות יש מסכים גדולים ואין אפשרות להגיע לצד הימני של המסך.

multicolor traject controlled side bar
The side bar appearing when you are in a speed controlled zone (traject control) is always green. If the average speed of this zone is 70 can the app constantly calculate your speed and keep the bar green when you are in this average speed but turn yellow when you reach 70 and red when you cross the average speed (71-up) so you know you need to slow down to stay on the average speed, or you have room to speed up a little when you had to stop for any reason without overspeeding the average speed.

Map issue
I would like to report that there is a problem in my map view, the name of the street I am on is displayed in the bottom of the map, right where I should see the navigation icon, and it is making difficult to navigate, I tried to desactivate this in the configuration but I did not found this setting. It would be best if the street name be displayed in the top of the map.

Option to remove quick access on sound/mute from map display
Please give us the option to remove quick access sound button from the map display. I prefer a clean map without all the unnecessary button on the display. The settings button is fine, should be allowed to remove everything else on the display. I never use sound navigation, it is a distraction otherwise.

I have a suggestion: it would be great to show stop signs and traffic lights on the route.
If we could go to Map Issue and note when there is a 2-way stop sign; a 4 - way stop sign; or a traffic light, it would improve Waze and help the driver when on a route to know what's coming up.
