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…

Why it's so hard for the Waze developers to add a small number somewhere for the altitude?
When the app is using the GPS it should be trivial task to get the altitude and show it somewhere. Everybody is asking for that for years. I can't understand what's wrong with Waze's people/devs...

Shutdown dialog no longer shows up on first back button or swipe back
Android: Waze used to always show the shutdown dialog box when the back button was pressed or swiped back. Now if I launch Waze and then swipe back, it will go to my home screen and continue running. The behavior is the same if I am already navigating to a destination. Once I return to the home screen, if I open Waze again and then swipe back, it will show the dialog box. Please re-enable the dialog anytime a back swipe is issued. Thanks!

When you need to take a tunnel (go down in tunnel)

Double tap to zoom
It’s not safe to use two fingers to zoom in and out and it’s just as unsafe to use that silly thing in the top left corner to tap and hold and then slide up or down. Plus that little widget only allows you to zoom in or out of the center of the map, never according to a specific place on the maps. Please make it like google or Apple Maps where when you double tap and slide your finger, it zooms in and out according to where your finger is placed and not just centered by default

Manual sorting of places like google maps
I have a list of favorites like everyone but because it is out of order it is hard to fine (Please refer to my "More organization by..." suggestion. the list seems to be in the order of saves and cannot be sorted.
Even if it is possible to group them in a folder it still would not be able to sort it, Not Auto sorting because of the different names but manual sorting like on google maps. I feel It is a quality of life thing, same as my other suggestion.3 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

multiple workplaces
I work at two locations throughout the week. Previous to this job I enjoyed that my work was always easily accessible at the top of the suggestions list. Now that i work at two locations, i wish i still had this option. I currently have them both saved under my favorites, but this requires me to click into the favorites folder, meaning i have to navigate multiple screens rather than having my destination pinned at the top. This simple change would be a major QOL upgrade for any Wazer with multiple workplaces.

Make auto-complete on address search usable
When i start to type my destination you automatically present suggestions. The problem is that once I select one of the suggestions the search ends and i cannot add the precise street address (house number).
Why not add an option to drop the suggestion into the edit box and continue typing (just like google search allows you to continue editing)

Display alphabet and voice guiding
Hello Waze developres!
I just drove through countries that use other alphabets than latin (cyrillic, greek). Waze gave me two nasty surprizes.
First: place names are displayed using the local alphabet, ignoring my interface language choice. Reading names / finding a place was impossible while driving, although i partially know those alphabets. Imagine having to stop on a highway just to find a place. I had to blindly follow the path to intended final destination, without being able to recognize anything on route. I strongly suggest displaying place names in an alphabet matching the user selection for interface language. Or…

Estimated Time not shown before clicking Go Now
When you enter the Where To, it gives the distance but NOT the estimated driving time. You only see the time when you click Go Now which starts the actual navigation when all I want to know is how long it would take to get there so I can know to plan ahead eg for making appointments.

Improve safety:
Make it easier to report issues on the road so that we don't really have to take our eyes off the road to make the report..
Now if I want to report an object or car, I need to press way too many buttons while driving. It's a huge distraction and we don't need so many details.
You can change it to a simple "Warning" instead of specifying exactly what it is (object? car? police? ...)...I would have a warning button that's always in the corner of the screen, and then a big interface pops up where you choose if…

Customizable arrow
The arrow that determines ourselves on the map is currently blue with a white outline. I think it could be a nice implementation in the app itself if we had the choice to change that. For example, a grey arrow with an orange outline.
