Name previous trip
I can remove trip and see info and a couple other selections but can you add ability to name trip- traveling for work I like to immediately put in location I am going to work and then hotel and then airport and leave them sit and ready for quick start later- would be nice to name them making easier/quicker to select from previous trip list, instead of pick based on the address listed that I am terrible at remembering

We need a Local Resident Tag for people's profiles with a form of Verification required to confirm this.
So, my suggestion is that we should have a "Local Resident" Tag placed on our profile for the region/area that we are in. You can verify this using Postcards with a Verification Code on them (that's how Nextdoor does it). I just feel like if we locals know something for 12 years and then confirm it from the owners, then it should be taken with a heavier weight than a grain of salt from a newbie. That's my honest opinion.

Use iphone screen as a touchscreen
Some cars' infotainment system has a non-touchscreen; consequently, it is hard to manipulate the map by zooming in &out or looking around the map. It is possible to make the iPhone as a remote by adding a touch area which can control the map like moving or zooming in. One navigation app “高德地图” has such function already. It is really convenient for driver to see the map!

Musi
There is a wonderful app, called Musi, that plays music directly from YouTube WITHOUT ads. You only pay $7 to remove the onscreen ads, and even then it lasts forever because it’s tied to the account.
Waze has 3 million reviews on the App Store alone.
Musi has 3.3 million.Could we possibly set it up to attach Musi to Waze?

I really think the team should link into this!

Juiste baanvak pijl(en)
Geachte medewerkers,
Is het mogelijk (volgens mij een minimale software aanpassing), om de juiste basnvak welke men moet kiezen een groene kleur te geven in plaats van iets helderder wit. Het iets meer wit is soms moeilijk te onderscheiden en draagt er toe bij dat de weggebruiker zich beter moet concentreren op het navigatiescherm. Dit draagt niet bij aan de verkeersveiligheid.

Don't automatically start giving directions
I say where to go, then look at rout and options. But before I can decide the app automatically starts yelling directions loudly (in restaurant it's embarrassing). Google Maps waits untill I press the Start button. Maybe that can be an option setting, I HATE your presumption and being forced!

Colour code hazard reporting
colour code the hazard ‘boxes’ on the reporting screen.
Wazers past the age of 40 may struggle to see the hazard icons and text - would be useful to have those colour coded so that eyes are off the road for the shortest possible time.2 votes -
Search bar Rework + Favorites Customization
The search feature feels a little bit messy. Instead of having your recent searches listed under your favorites, let’s add a button for recent searches, just like the buttons for gas, food, etc. Next, Instead of having only your work and home favorites listed, let’s list all of your favorite places under the search bar. You can also add the ability to customize your other favorites with icons similar to work and home. A school icon would be very popular, and adding a boy or a girl icon for a friend’s house could be useful. You could also add other…

Phone Charging Indication while navigating with app
It would be great to have an icon on the map display indicates that your phone is charging or plugged in while navigating with the waze app. There have been several times while driving and my phone was accidentally not correctly seated in the car charging cradle. I was navigating on battery power and the only indication was when I received a low battery warning notification from the phone OS. This can be very inconvenient when going on long drives or a safety concern when in unfamiliar areas or if one is stranded and the phone has no or low…

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…
