Add option to drop pin at the location we want to go AND to save as special destinations (Home, Work, etc).... instead of just key in the ad
Add option to drop pin at the location we want to go AND to save as special destinations (Home, Work, etc).... instead of just key in the address. Been years, but still so typical... in the name of minimalistic 🤦🏻♂️❤️🌌✨.

Kill the new cutesy animation when loading. Already too long and now longer. Annoying
Milliseconds matter. Ask Spotify. Adding extra loading time for the sake of a cutesy animation is heresy.

Can Waze be kept on as a floating screen while running other apps?
Every time I open another app Waze just runs in the background. It would be much easier if You could keep the minimized floating screen up so you don’t have to tap that tiny blue button up in the corner, and so you can do other stuff while using the app. This is a feature on Google Maps.3 votes -
Speed icon to drag and drop option.
Hello dear developers and team.
Since last update the "Speed" icon sticked to the center-bottom and very often it layered over the streets titles and the routes.
I think it would be great to have an option to choose where to place that icon on the screen, for example left-bottom, left-top and etc... Thank you in advance3 votes -

Добавить возможность менять размер спидометра
Очень хочется сделать спидометр больше. Очень здорово было бы поменять его на прямоугольный 7segment индикатор с ярким свечением, с возможностью выбора места отображения, цвета, размера.

Report blocked lane
Right now on Apple car play when you report a blocked lane. It’s left, right and center. I would always have to carefully read which one I tap while driving.
I think have left, center and right would be easier to tap around

Simplify feedback buttons
Currently there are two option buttons on the display, regarding a reported event. These are "Still there" and "Not there". But as your default setting is "Still there" in case of no action from the user, I think it would be better to have a single button, and that should be "Not there". In this way would be more easy for the user to push that button while driving. In the current situation sometimes I miss the right answer because the two buttons are close and I have to be attentive to the road while giving feedback.

Create additional lists
I would like to create additional lists of saved locations. Google has the "want to go" list, for example.Waze just has 1 big blob list. I don't think that would take anything away from Waze's simplistic design.

Re-introduce a feature. Back button (on android) re-centers map.
This is actually not new, but a feature I (and many people I've talked to) want back.
In the past, when you would roam around the map to check whats to come on your route, you could just press the default back button on android and it would re-center the map.
After recent updates, it doesn't do that anymore, and instead shows the dialog for shutting down. So not only we have to cancel that, but then find the button on screen to click to re-center.
Please, add it back.3 votes -
Hands free reporting
I love Waze! However, I find that I am likely part of the majority that simply doesn't report events as often as I should. The main problem I have is with taking the time to mess with my phone often when I need to be MOST focused on the road. Examples:
Suddenly in a construction zone.... Yea probably shouldn't risk it.
Cop chilling in a well hidden spot... Yea I need to focus on not getting a ticket rather than playing with my phone infront of them.
Obstacle on road.... Literally focus on swerving rather than messing with the touchscreen.

Shortcut to switch car types in iOS
It would ve nice to have an shortcut on apple to change car type quickly. As someone who drives a taxi and private cars and switch a lot. Maybe integrate it to apple shortcuts app or make it bluetooth connection dependable so it switches automatically when connected to a designated bluetooth source

Add "unlimited speed limit" sign for Germany
In Germany, 70% of the highways have to actual speed limit. This is currently idicated by no speed limit sign at all. However, this might also mean that the speed limit is unknown.
Instead, the "unlimited" speed sign could be used that is used in Germany to indicate that no speed limit applies anymore (link to an image: https://www.bussgeldkatalog.org/wp-content/uploads/282.png) This is sign 282.This could be easily accomplished by either adding a checkbox to the editor to set that no speed limit applies, but this might requite some engineering.
An easier solution would be to only update the app…3 votes -
Option to force re-sync of calendar
I have a planned drive generated from a calendar event, but that calendar event has changed time and Waze doesn't know that. Please add an option to force Waze to re-fetch the calendar events and update planned drives accordingly.

Organisation des icônes sur l’ecran
L’icône donnant la vitesse n’est pas fonctionnel dans son positionnement. Il faudrait le positionner ou l’on veut l’idéal étant en haut à droite. Explication : lorsqu’il y a un radar, des bouchons, nous ne voyons plus la vitesse. Il faut donner la possibilité de positionner les icônes dont on a besoin et à l’endroit certain

Warn drivers that attempt changing the name of a place.
Recently I have seen (and rejected) many name changes on places where people attempt to change the name to one they would like to see as a shortcut name in their destinations.
Waze should warn them when they attempt to change the name of any place and provide an option to properly nickname a routing destination without changing the name everyone sees.
I usually send them a message via Chat when this happens and reject their changes, but it would be better if Waze did the warning .3 votes -
Drop a pin, select the wrong report category, but you cannot go back to correct like before
Release 4.101 is a step backwards. When I drop a pin and mistakenly select the wrong kind of report (for example tapping Police when I really wanted to tap Hazard) you can no longer go back to make the correct choice, you have to cancel the pin drop and start from scratch. The problem is now the new pin will be a few hundred yards further down the road than the hazard, which is not useful, especially for potholes, debris and the like. Please restore the ability to keep the pin drop but go back to the initial "What do…
