1-3 physical button for dashboard mounting
I don’t want to use a screen interface to do my critical input reporting (roadside hazards, police). Nor do I want to use voice, which is messy and impractical when traveling with several people in the car. The ideal solution (IMO) would keep people from shifting their eyes to a screen or using their voice in scenarios where they have multiple people (ie kids!) in the car.
Instead, I would love to see either Waze offer a programmable hardware button set that we can map the most important actions to the buttons for easy tactile reporting. If Waze doesn’t want…

I also want to point out this setting can also potentially miscalculate traffic flows. A few days back, during heavy rain, waze was showing
I want to point outthat vehicle type setting can potentially miscalculate traffic flows. A few days back, during heavy rain, waze was showing the route to be congested, when in fact traffic was smooth flowing, albeit at a slightly slower speed due to heavy rain showers.
In Malaysia, when it rains, motor cyclists take shelter under flyovers and bridges. Therefore, if their waze was on, it would make your app think traffic is at a standstill.
Another issue with motorcycles is, in Malaysia, Lane Splitting is not an offence, and most times, during slow traffic, motorcyclists travel at much higher…

Add iPhone music player for songs stored locally in my iPhone, not just for songs in Apple Music premium subscription
Currently, Waze for iOS/iPhone includes controls for Apple Music. But it only works if the user has a subscription to Apple Music. I have a lot of music that I own stored locally on my iPhone. But Waze cannot control the music player, unless it is controlling the paid/subscription Apple Music.

Indications constante de vitesse maximum autorisée
Bonjour, à l'heure actuelle la limite de vitesse s'affiche en rouge une fois la vitesse dépassé. Serait-il possible de mettre constamment la vitesse maximum autorisée en gris derrière notre allure et afficher en plus gros et rouge une fois dépassé ?
Sur les routes les panneaux change constamment de vitesse. Il est possible de loupé un panneau d'indication de vitesse. Avec le suivie waze ça nous indiquerai la bonne vitesse tout en précisant que waze n'est en aucun cas responsable de la vitesse du conducteur ou de la mauvaise indication de vitesse.2 votes -
Ability to synchronize a phone with a tablet,
Allow the app to synchronize a tablet with a phone running the app at the same time so those that have a tablet without a cellular plan can simply open the app on the tablet (while mounted on the dash) and run maps without worrying about any hitching or data catch-up the app must do, due to having to use the phone as a hotspot currently.

Make sure that the sliding of the finger is taken on the buttons as pressing, not swiping, please.
Due to the shaking of the car, it is not always possible to confirm or refute a report on a road event (police, obstacle, etc.). The button simply swipes off the screen. Make sure that the sliding of the finger is taken on the buttons as pressing, not swiping, please.

Plan a drive feature doesn’t save
The “plan a drive” feature doesn’t ever save on my phone. Like it will save but if I close the app, it forgets about the drive. Even if I keep the app open in the background but don’t go in the app for a few hours it deletes all my planned drives. So for all intents and purposes the feature doesn’t work. I would love to use it if that can be fixed in the future.

Add distances to next POI
Audi Nav system has a really useful widget on the display showing how many miles/kms to the next POI along the route you have selected. By way of an example I found it really useful to be able to glance at the screen and see that the next service station was 3 miles away and the one after was 30 miles. This could be used for a variety of POIs and you could go as far to also add fuel/charging points and the prices of fuel at those areas. The key part of this idea though is that it considered…

Knowing the direction of the closure
Hi>
Why isn't the closure displayed in the app the same way it is on the Waze map editor?
We often encounter misleading reports where users believe the entire street is closed.
I believe it would be beneficial to add small arrows to the traffic closure, similar to those in the map editor, to indicate the direction of the closure.thanks!
2 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Plan a Drive not working!
When you save your drive a day or two in advance, as soon as you leave the app your drive is gone! Need this feature to work like it should, as commuters try to plan accordingly day(s) in advance to allow for traffic/construction delays.UPDATE this great feature so it works again.

More options for Home and Work places
From some time ago, I'm looking for an option to choose more than one place for "Home", but I can't find it. Also you can add extra options for places like work.

Trip Suggestions on Android Auto Waze
When I bring up Waze on my car's dash screen with Android Auto, Waze displays a list of trip suggestions. This only started happening within the last month, prior to that it did not do this.
I would like to disable the auto-display of trip suggestions when Waze on Android Auto starts up. There should be a user selectable setting to do this.
I find it really annoying since 99% of the time I do not need Waze guidance to drive where I want to go, and manually closing the list each time I start the app just wastes my…

Change interface back to old version for horizontal users
Old interface was much better in horizontal view. I use waze on my android Car unit that only can be used in horizontal mode. The icon is on the right side of the screen now with search on the left. The icon was much better in centre of the screen. Its now unusable and annoying to use in horizontal.

How about moving the wake up button so it’s not right above the swipe line for iPhones?
It is way too hard to turn off Waze. And the Wake Up button sits right above the swipe line, so every time I try to leave Waze, instead I wake it up! It’s crazy. Move the Wake up button. I beg you.

Waze's orange alert bubble causes burn in damage really fast in amoled displays.
Waze's orange alert bubble causes burn in damage really fast in amoled display. When in dark mode, I recommend to change to a color with a more 'blackier' accent to minimize the problem.
