  1. Allow users to disable the Roadshield.

    Many users utilize Waze in split-screen mode with other apps, and the roadshield does not optimize with the size of the map. This means that at critical moments (upcoming turns, arriving at your destination, etc) the roadshield covers your map and vehicle, completely obscuring the information. The only option for this is to reduce Waze to 1/4th of the screen to move the roadshield to the left of the screen, which makes Waze virtually useless.

    Please allow users to disable / modify the roadshield.

  2. A Couple of ideas

    I live in Maryland and would like to make a couple of suggestions. First, Maryland has a new law where you are supposed to pull over for any vehicles now, not just Police, Emergency and Tow trucks. Can you modify the program so it would display which side of the road the vehicle is on so I could possibly move over ahead of time. Secondly, can you add a simple button for vehicle on the left side of the road, on the right side and for a police car.. I don't like going through all of the buttons to post…

  3. Fix Screen Burn Issue

    The five year old issue really needs to be dealt with. The canned answer of "The Report button was designed to be noticed while blending in and it’s important to keep it as is." Is not adequate. The users are supposed to tell YOU what's important, not the other way around. The same response for this long is obtuse and shows an utter disregard for your users needs. There are plenty of ways to fix this issue and the company obviously isn't even interested in trying; at this point the answer you are giving isn't a reason, it's an excuse.

  6. Location marker

    When you are about to reach your destination, a black and white checkered circle with a red location marker appears at the top of the page. It would be helpful if the red location marker could be either on the left or the right side of the black and white checkered circle depending on which side of the street your destination is.

  9. כאשר רושמים כתובת יעד והוויז נותן מסלולים היה טוב אם גם היה מספר הרמזורים שבדרך

    כאשר בוחרים כתובת יעד והוויז נותן מסלולים לבחירה היה מעולה לדעת כמה רמזורים יש בכל מסלול
    ובכלל להוסיף רמזורים במפות הדרכים

  10. BUG - Waze functionality - Locked when showing ads

    Can't for the life of me find a way to report general bugs, this is however technically a suggestion, since you're free to fix your bugs...

    To the problem, for some time now I've had some problem when stopping or going to a standstill where an ad pops up on the screen.
    I don't mind them at all, but what happens is that it locks the screen to only that ad and doesn't close when I start driving again, map also doesn't update in the background.
    App seems to be responsive, but I cant do anything but press the ad…

  11. Off-road 4x4 tracks

    It would be great if you could have 4X4 track option. Its such a great app i would hate to have to start using another for this feature. I love going off-road and having the overlay would be fantastic

  14. Amber colored checkerboard for local traffic only

    Hey Waze. Can you guys look into adding an AMBER colour checkerboard icon to denote restricted roadway in terms of lane reductions or open to "local traffic only", but not completely barricaded like what the red checkerboard would denote?

    It would be known as "local traffic only"

  15. Dynamic Wazer positions

    All other Wazers are displayed on the map, but it is very static. Is it not possible to update location of other Wazers more frequently (bearing in mind that live tracking would have been awesome!), maybe with a tick box on the app if more data is consumed. Wazers can always as now set their privacy if they are incognito.

  16. Speedometer Only Display

    Like the old Garmin GPS units used to have... A high contrast speedometer only mode. Would be helpful for reading on a motorcycle in high glare situations.

    Bonus points for still having audio navigation and somehow audio/visual alerts in this mode.

  18. Always list how many turn lanes

    As a truck driver and knowing there is no truck route option coming then at least posting how many lanes turn would be usefull. When I'm in an unfamiliar area I don't always know which lane to go to and as truckers need to turn from furthest lane and if we are in wrong lane it can cause MAJOR DELAYS AND DANGERS

  19. Add back the Car

    Add back the filters for Crash, Car on Shoulder, Car on Road, etc to the desktop version. As a Department of Transportation, we use WAZE to dispatch our service patrol to motorists and this is a great tool to have them check on vehicles if we don't have a camera in the area. It used to be there but has recently disappeared. (Waze told to put it as a suggestion)
