  1. Lane Guidance on Roundabouts

    When approaching a roundabout in the UK, waze will not tell me which lane I need to be in, to take my desired exit.

    This is something that Google maps does so WELL! Please consider adding this on waze.

  2. iOS 18 Dark Icon! PLEASE

    Dear WAZE Support,

    I hope this message finds you well. I’ve been using your app for some time now and truly appreciate its features. With the release of iOS 18, I was wondering if you could consider adding a dark mode icon option for the app.

    It would be a great addition for those of us who prefer a consistent dark theme across our devices.

    Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your response!

    Best regards,
    Julian

  3. One Touch Reports in Car Play / Android Auto - Customizable

    It would be great to have the ability to customize one-touch reports.
    See the attached imgur photo.
    In this case, I made vehicle on shoulder, police, and object on the road as my "One Touch."
    I also added a compass to the navigation bar on the bottom left. (The compass I used is far too busy for Waze.)

  4. Big "stop Waze" button

    Sometimes (often) you just want to stop and close Waze. But you have to go through menus, which is DANGEROUS while driving. There should be a big readily-visible X on the main navigation screen. Or alternatively, a big readily-visible MUTE button.

  5. Combine waze and google maps

    It would be better to allocate servers for long trips as well. It would make Waze better. Also, why not incorporate the waze reporting and crowdsourcing features into Google maps?  I would even pay a monthly subscription for that.

  6. Simplify Wazer and Editor workflow for residential places

    The current method for a wazer to add their home to the map is confusing and creates more work for waze map editors. The workflow for a wazer is similar to this:

    Wazer selects the yellow triangle (if it's displayed on their map)

    Next selects "Place"

    (now it is about to get really confusing)

    Wazer must take a picture

    The next screen says "Select Place" with a text field that says "Enter Place name".

    For a residence, the wazer should not enter a place name. Just below the text field there is apparently a "button" that if tapped will add…

  7. Indicateur de vitesse

    Bonjour
    Ajouter une option pour gérer la taille, position et la couleur de l'indicateur de vitesse. Les smartphones sont de plus en plus grands, l'indicateur est trop petit, l'option pourrait être x2,x3,x4, voir x5. Pour la couleur, quand il passe rouge, il est impossible de lire la valeur indiquée. L'indicateur pourrait prendre quasi la moitié de l'écran
    Merci

  8. Please give the ability to turn off the "carpool" button

    The carpool button is the bane of my Waze existence. Whenever I pick up my phone from the little pocket area in the car and Waze is running, it triggers this "carpool" button. Then it takes both hands to swipe from the far left side of the screen to make it go away. I won't ever use the carpool function and would love to be able to hide it and stop this from happening. I know it sounds trivial, but it's maddening to deal with.

  11. Configurable Speedometer & Speed Limit location

    Before I go ahead and suggest improvements, Waze is a great navigation app with excellent features. I love it! Great work, Waze team; keep it up!! 👏

    I suggest introducing a feature where Waze app users can configure the location of the speedometer and speed limit information through the Waze app preferences to be positioned in one of four display corners. I have noticed reports of inconsistent placement across different platforms; some Waze apps display this information on the left, while others display it on the right. To set the context, the suggestion is based on using the Waze iOS…

  12. Do AWAY with cartoonish “rewards”

    Do AWAY with the cartoonish rewards! This is a useful app and not a ridiculous game. Going 75mph down the highway and I “verify” a car on the side of the road and as soon as I do I come over a small rise and there’s a car in the left shoulder partially in the fast lane and the ridiculous cartoon rewards are still flashing so I can’t press the notification button to alert other drivers!! It’s either a game or a useful app, stop trying to make it both!!

  13. Interface suggestion

    When asking if police or disabled car on side of the road, perhaps separate the “still there” and “not there” buttons. Perhaps one on the top and one on the bottom. Sometimes I accidentally click the wrong button as the car is bumpy and the buttons are too close together. FYI. This is on Apple CarPlay.

  14. Ability to disable features

    Give users ability to disable/opt-out of CarPool. I drive for work, and cannot have passengers, but frequently have navigation blocked by the "Carpool" screen when adjusting my phone in the holder / accidental contact with right side of screen.

  15. Add information/instructions on when to add a pass

    My suggestion is for the following feature:
    Either:
    Add an information panel when users enter the Toll and HOV passes page for the first time, informing them that adding passes may route them into areas or through restricted roads.
    Or:
    Allow us to add information against each pass/permit, giving the user guidance as to what each pass is for.

    My suggestion solves this problem:
    There is less chance that the user will select a pass/permit that they shouldn’t have due to the misunderstanding of how the pass system works.

    In more words:
    Now that Passes/Permits that users have added to…

  16. More bad weather descriptions

    Instead of “bad weather reported ahead,” there should be options for co-pilots to select “high winds,” or blowing snow,” or “heavy rain,” or “hail,” or “sleet,” or “tornado,” etc

  17. Speedometer position

    Please make it so the speedometer can be dragged to a new position on the screen!
    The speedometer being fixed in the bottom left of the phone screen can be an issue depending on where the phone is mounted, the orientation it is mounted, and if the screen is obstructed by the steering wheel for example.

  18. Full screen speedometer option on phone

    It would be nice to have the option to have a full screen speedometer with speed limits. Motorcycle speedometers can be 10% off, so most of the time I use Waze as a speedometer (with a map), it would be nice if I could tap the speedometer and make it go to full screen big speedometer display, then tap again to return to the map if I need it.

    I've tried other GPS just speedometer, but then I lose Waze (And those aren't very accurate like your speedometer is).

  19. Bring back the old speedometer position (bottom left corner)

    With the latest update, the speedometer on the mobile app has moved from the bottom left corner to the center of the bottom edge of the screen. This new position is distracting and interferes with map visibility, especially when checking upcoming turns or traffic info.

    The previous placement in the bottom left corner was much more intuitive and out of the way. Please consider giving users the option to choose the speedometer position, or revert it back to where it was.

  20. Bring back the "easy in app" Share My Drive.

    The latest update that removed the "easy in app" Share My Drive feature is moronic. It now takes more steps/additional "clicks" to share a drive and clogs up my text messages with shared drives. Bring back the "easy in app" Share My Drive feature.
