  1. Speed trap

    When speed trap notification pops up. Tachometer becomes hidden behind the directions element. That makes it impossible to read current speed and also max speed limit. Maybe the possible cause is scaled system UI. I think the speed trap notification could popup small in the corner.

  2. Make menu options side-by-side instead of stacked

    The current options to respond to a hazard are "Still There" and "Not There" and they are stacked on top of each other, at least on my Apple CarPlay display. When driving, the road is typically bumpy and vertical control of one's finger tip (for touch screens) is harder than horizontal control. Thus, I suggest that the hazard responses be placed side-by-side instead of stacked. I'm guessing that 1 in 5 of my hazard responses is entered incorrectly as I hit the wrong button when trying to enter hazard responses due to my hand bouncing a bit on bumpy roads.

  3. Average speed zone label covers up the speed limit

    When you enter an average speed zone, the green bar on the left appears. Also a label appears at the bottom showing what distance the zone covers. Annoyingly this label covers up the current speed limit badge, so you can't see what the limit is until the label disappears or moves up far enough.

  4. Add report button in Waze to mark location to look at later in WME

    Add a report button or a togglable on-screen button to mark the current location which then can be viewed later in the Waze Map Editor.

    Currently users need to either create a UR or take a screenshot in order to remember the location to look at later in the Waze Map Editor.

  5. Close app on iPhone.

    Go back to the old system of closing the app. Like many other people, I use my phone for directions and the recent changes are so annoying that I’m seriously thinking of removing the app. I could live with the annoyance of being automatically connected when I’m in my newer car via apple play - but now this is just backward to close the app via my iPhone.

  6. Revert your recent update

    Your recent upgrade has brought my rating from 5 stars to 2 stars.... Did you test this??? Or just release it and cross your fingers. As someone with experience in software upgrades and testing I would have been sacked for the mess now masquerading as Waze. It wasn't broken so Why??

  7. Show ETA time when showing possible routes

    When showing potential routes for the user instead of just having a time estimate (20 mins) also show the ETA (2:30pm).

  8. Plan a drive

    I'm not happy with the relocation of "Plan a drive." It's way too difficult to get to now and not intuitive any more. Please put it back on the main page.

  9. Detect different bluetooth/headunits for pre-set profile and settings.

    As someone who rides a motorcycle and drives I would like to set different vehicle types based on device it is detecting. Like I would like if I connect to my car, no audible alerts and the routes that are best for that vehicle. But should I connect to my helmet communicator I would like if Waze knows that I would need audible alerts and motorcycle routes.

  10. Issues with new update

    There are a number of issues with the new Android Waze update. I think it is obvious that the developers use the app on a large screen. The speed limit and current speed are far too small to read while driving. The circle with the speed in it is about 1/2" in diameter on a 7" screen. The speed text and the speed limit are under 1/4" and are very hard to read.

    Also, when in full screen display, if one provides a location to navigate to, Waze shows the command in the dialog box, but does nothing. If one…

  12. WIDGET

    PLEASE BRING BACK THE WIDGET FEATURE FOR iOS!! It was so convenient to use before, especially being that majority of people’s phone layouts are set up based on widgets.

  13. Current Update Moves Eyes Off Road

    The new version works well with Android Auto Coolwalk, however: navigation buttons (i.e. routes) are now smaller and on the far top right corner, report button is now smaller and black and white instead of big and red. All this causes more eyes of the road, please review. Other than that like the work you're doing. Thanks!

  14. search favourites function

    It would be good to be able to perform a search/filter function for your saved favourites. If you have 30+ saved favourites it can be quite difficult to find what you want, a quick search function would be good I think.

  15. Bring back Shutdown button in swipe-up menu

    The recent UI change that removed the Shutdown button from the swipe up menu has a negative impact on the app. The new "hamburger" menu is not useful or well-integrated, and requires too much visual focus to find. The previous UI was more intuitive, and worked better. Please bring it back, so the shutdown button is available in the main swipe-up screen.

  16. Auto cancel the "Where to" and "My Waze" bars

    When we use the map and do not choose a destination, the "Where to" and "My Waze" bars at the bottom of the screen - especially in the landscape position - occupy almost half of the screen, which makes it very difficult to read the map. They should disappear after a few seconds and reappear when you touch the screen. I would like to ask you to introduce this minor and very helpful modification.

  20. Planning route

    There is currently an issue with route planning, where if you are trying to plan a route the app automatically assumes that the trip is for "today." However if the time to travel the route will take you past midnight, then the app essentially gets stuck in a loop of trying to recalculate the arrival time, without letting you change the day for the planned arrival. This should be rectified so that you don't need to wait until after midnight to plan a route. This is problematic especially for longer routes.
