Why can't it show direction of an alert. I hate having an alert only to find it on the other side of the interstate!
Today was my first time using Waze....what a bother to be preparing for a slow down, construction, accident whatever, only to get "there" and discover the hazard on the other side of the interstate......Could we get a "North, South, East, West" with the hazard so we could know if we were actually coming up to it or not?????

This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being. Adding more and more options to reporting, especially for less popular types of reports such as other side which will also require another window/card, is not something we are aiming for at the moment. Please be aware that other side reporting is already available by voice using the Google Assistant! We believe investing in voice can create essentially a better and more scalable experience and we hope to bring it to more languages soon.

please bring the arnie voice back
Please bring arnie back as all the voices are really annoying and put me off driving. I would be happy to pay a subscription fee for this service.
2 votesThank you for your suggestion!
As you probably know, some of the voices we feature are promotional, meaning they are only available for a limited time.
We offer special voices for holidays, events, and just for fun.
You can use these for the length of the promotion. When the promotion ends, your voice will reset to the default and the voice will no longer appear in the Sound menu.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!

Rotate vehicle direction of travel when plotting journey
Should be able to change direction of travel when plotting route. As a taxi driver I am often asked to quote a journey however waze assumes which way I am facing when plotting the route and this can sometimes add up to 2 miles to a journey. I would like to be able to press on the car icon and rotate it through 180 degrees to face the direction I want so it gives an accurate mileage figure
1 voteThank you for this suggestion.
Setting the car’s direction when starting the app and navigation is a known matter which will be addressed in the future.
There are many complexities in location tracking which cause this issue and hold us from providing a solution.
It’s currently on the back burner, but definitely a part of the backlog. -
Limit WAZE ads when turns are coming up
In an unfamiliar area with many turns, WAZE ads prevent you from seeing where you're supposed to turn, particularly on interstate interchanges where lane selection is important. I keep having to swipe the ad off the map when I should be paying attention to getting into the proper lane. The current ad display is actually unsafe.

Add more than one stop
Adding more than one stop would be nice to have a nice overlook of what my route would look like
1 voteThank you for this suggestion.
This idea has been being discussed for a while and recognized as an important user request.
We hear the community’s voice and would like to share that while we can’t currently commit to a timeline, we do have plans to create a way to add more than one stop pre-drive.
We’ll keep the community posted, please stay tuned! -
Drive plus walk
Add option to find quickest route with additional walking. Many times waze navigates to exact location without taking into account faster route to near by location. I personally would rather walk an additional 100 meters to avoid sitting in traffic. This is especially warranted when using a taxi who relies on waze and additional cost is influenced by route. This feature can be an added route option without interfering with the basic platform most users prefer.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion!
Waze can currently direct your partial walking route when it’s a part of a drive or carpool.
We are currently not planning on adding walking mode for complete routes.

Expand Police Visibility Function
Expand the Police Visibility to include "In Traffic" and "In Traffic Other Side". It is frustrating to be 'notified' that there is police ahead only to see that they in traffic, probably going home for the day.

Lembrete para Desligar faróis ao sair da rodovia
Assim como o Waze avisa sobre ligar os faróis ao entrar numa rodovia, ele deveria avisar para DESLIGAR os faróis ao sair da rodovia.
O meu carro assim como dezenas de outros NÃO avisa ao motorista que o farol está ligado ao descer do carro.
No estacionamento da empresa onde eu trabalho (cerca de 400) carros, TODOS os dias eu vejo pelo menos 4 carros com faróis ligados (é que um dos caminhos para se chegar na empresa é via rodovia).
Eu mesmo em 6 meses já fiquei sem bateria 9x.
Se o Waze tivesse o lembrete de desligar os…1 voteCurrently this is not on the roadmap.
As a workaround, you can use ‘Child reminder’ functionality for this purpose – just create a custom message for this reminder, so instead of telling you to check your kids, Waze would remind you to turn off the headlights when you drive to destination.

Please get rid of the ads. Its great they only appear when I'm stopped but I still don't like them. Other than that the app is great!
No more ads please even while just stopped.

Add ad
When you click on an advertiser -- you have option to "add' stop to your route and not to replace your existing route.
If I see an advertiser and decide to stop and click on the link, I am still on my previous route and would like to "add" in the new stop (just as we can do on our own) versus replace the existing route. A bit frustrating to have to re-initiate pre-existing route just because I selected the option to visit an advertiser's establishment.

WAZE הפעלה אוטומטית של
WAZE נמצא בשימוש יום יומי, ולאוו דווקא בשביל להגיע מנקודה לנקודה, כמו למשל לאיתור מצלמות תנועה נייחות/ניידות, לא תמיד אנו זוכרים להדליקו. ייתכן וניתן להוסיף אופציה, שהאפליקציה תידלק באופן אוטומטי כאשר ה GPS מרגיש מהירות גדולה למשל מ XX קמ"ש. כמובן שהמשתמש יכול לבקש אופציה זו או לא.

I used to be able to provide traffic and hazard data for the "other side." These disappeared in a recent revision. Please restore.
It is really the restoration of a former option - reporting a traffic jam or traffic hazard on the other side of the road.

Bring back Tom
Please bring back the "Tom" voice. Jane mispronounces streets, and at times she is very difficult to understand. The Tom voice was articulate. Not sure why you discontinued this voice. A contract expired? Hey, pay him whatever he wants and get him back please.

Show gas station on my way
Navigate me to a gas station that is on my way rather than a gas station that is nearest to my current location. That will be suitable for drivers that wants to pass through a gas station but it is not that urgent to them and just don't want to get off track too much that could stall them.
