  1. “Back” button in Reports

    I noticed that when you want to report something (hazard, blocked lane, police, etc…) sometimes I may press the wrong category for what I want to report, but there’s no “Back” button, only “Cancel”. But there’s problem with cancelling, that is you lose the exact location you passed and if you report again it may be misaligned.

    There should be an option for a back button to search for other categories in case you misclicked in a category that is not the one you wanted to report initially. This way, the system still holds your “original” location when you pressed…

  2. Screen ui

    Instead of tiny buttons to confirm or deny, use a half screen red, half screen green transparent overlay making it possible to answer the alert without looking. It would increase usage and safety to this system.

  3. Remove achievement points after reporting

    Again my main goal is to improve the app and the safety in the traffic.
    After reporting a hazard, a car on shoulder a speed trap or else the app immediately shows the points I received for this report. The big problem is, that in that time the report-button is not shown and can't be used. So if I have to make two reports in short time for example a roadwork and a car on shoulder or I want to report that the left AND the middle lane is blocked I have to look almost 10 seconds on my phone…

  4. Rotational speed camera

    Where I am we have permanent speed camera emplacements, but only 2 cameras that are rotated throughout these emplacements. It would be nice to be able to alert wazers to the presence of these, as Waze's current policy is to not allow temporary cameras to be mapped.

  8. Voice activated hazard reporting

    Hi,
    I would like to suggest getting,
    1. AI technology for self learning and improving maps as in some instances wazers know better routes to that of the waze map.
    2. Voice activated controls in reporting hazards - in the UK unfortunately even tapping the phone while driving can lead to prosecution and driving bans. If somehow, waze can be voice activated when reporting hazards or police presence, etc. For example we say, "Hey Google" to activate and request Google assistance.
    In waze we already can voice activate destinations through Google assistance.
    My point is to avoid touching the phone…

  9. Accident Alert

    Waze provides alternate routes when approaching an accident which is really helpful. My suggestion is that WAZE “announce”…. ACCIDENT AHEAD, ALTERNATE ROUTE PROVIDED”….this allows us to know why the alternate is being provided. Sometimes we are on the road for long times and get tired. Thank yo.

  10. Fixing a mistake when creating a report

    Sometimes, as I try to set up a report, I click the wrong button, and there’s no way to go back to correct the error. If you close out, you lose the chance to report the issue at the point at which it’s happening. This wasn’t always a problem, but an update made this an issue.

  11. Reporting road closures shouldn’t report on a road being driven on

    When I was trying to report a road closure, it automatically suggested the closure was for the road I was driving on. Why would that ever be the case?

  12. Lombas

    Olá Waze, tendo em atenção a segurança rodoviária, e como exemplo as lombas de calmia de trânsito na via pública, pelas dimensões das mesmas e que muitas vezes não visiveis pelos condutores ou estão mal identificadas, proponho a ideia de uma opção para poder-se identificar os locais das lombas que podem representar mais perigo para os condutores, tal como pode-se identificar os perigos, como boraco na estrada ou passagem de nível, visto que são obstáculos permanentes.

    Obrigado,
    Continuação de um excelente trabalho,

  14. Under fire area and relevant closures in Google Maps are missing in Waze

    A severe fire was ongoing the previous weeks near our capital city in Greece, covering a vast area. While Google Maps is aware of the area that is under fire and has imposed relevant closures, I notice that in Waze, there are no closures in the same area at all.

    I believe that it is very important for Waze to be able to pull such data from Google Maps in case of emergencies like fires, so it can protect and inform intime the drivers.

    Thanks!

  15. Less restrictions for map editors

    It is absolutely insane that map editors still have to ask the reporter for the exact street and cross street to complete edit requests and map updates! I have been a member since 2009 and I still can not ever remember specifics because I have a life outside of making Waze reports and notations. Also, the “navigation history” which map editors refer you to, does not have every turn. Please fix this so that users will want to report more instead of just getting frustrated.

  16. Waze data as legal evidence

    It is frustrating when vehicles are being operated unsafely and there doesn't happen to be a police officer to witness. Yesterday as I was driving down a busy NY highway 4 motorcyclists were doing wheelies, tailgating cars and weaving in and out of traffic. In the absence of a police witness perhaps a certain number of hazard reports from Wazers, including offender's license plate numbers, might be sufficient evidence for law enforcement to pursue charges against drivers creating hazardous conditions. Has anyone considered this? Thank you.

  17. Report response tap areas instead of buttons

    I think the buttons to confirm or deny warnings (like roadworks, police or object on road) are too small. On bumpy roads, it’s easy to mistap.
    Tip for Improvement:
    Consider replacing the small buttons with larger, semi-transparent tap areas on the screen. For example, use the quarter bottom left of the screen for 'Yes' and bottom right quarter for 'No'. This would make it much easier to respond accurately while driving.
