PLEASE PLEASE LISTEN TO US
PLEASE take Springdale RD, Oakdale Rd and Lullwater Atlanta 30307 off of your app. You are suggesting these very residential streets as cut throughs for traffic. This is bringing in way more traffic than our streets can handle AND (I believe) creating a spike in crime.

Google Assistant Voice Navigation Problem
Dear Waze Team.
Since yesterday (seems like after Google Assistant update) I cannot use voice commands via Google Assistant in Waze anymore.
This cause a problem while driving as it is dangerous to try and add potholes etc. manually while driving.
When having Waze open and I want to navigate with commands through Google Assistant - just nothing happen or Google Maps open.
There is NO Google Assistant option to choose in my Waze app in Waze > Settings > Voice & Sounds?
PLEASE ADVISE OR HELP.
Thank you so kindly.

Bridge out
I was driving in an area where a bridge was out and under construction. The construction was showing up but there was no way to tell it that it was closed and for the navigation to use a different route. It kept trying to send me over the bridge. I tried several different ways to get the closure to show up.

Alternative Route Calculation Appears to Disregard Options without Freeways
The Alternative Route Calculation Appears to Disregard Options without Freeways with avoid freeways turned off.
Hi, I’ve noticed on several occasions that when I look at “other routes” with “avoid freeways” turned off, the app will suggest only routes that use freeways, even though some of these have longer time estimates and longer distances than some options that appear with “avoid freeways” turned on.
For example when navigating from Detroit to Royal Oak (with avoid freeways off) I am given three options involving highways, one 23 minutes and the other two 28 minutes. With avoid freeways turned on, I am…

Horrible accuracy, poor ETAs, poor routing lately.
Waze accuracy, ETA and routing have all been terrible the past few months. I used to be able to count on Waze, but not any more. Not sure why this is or if anyone else is having trouble.

Road closure navigation update
When driving and find that the highway you're about to get on is closed. You sit in traffic for 45 minutes. After you pass the highway it continues to try to navigate you onto the highway when it is closed due to an accident

Waze should reroute my drive when there is a accident and major backup, right? But it does not. Do I have a setting not setup correctly?

Speed limit change in the Netherlands
Hey Guys, hope you are all well and healthy. Just letting you know that the law in the Netherlands has changed. During the hours 0600 and 1900 LT the speed limit on highways is 100km an hour. Out of those times the speedlimit is a maximum of 120.
Could you please adjust programming to reflect that change?

Cant use Google Assistant when on Waze
Am a Pixel 2 user. I realized, that while driving around with Waze, being enabled, i am unable to use Google Assistant. When i contacted Google support team, they advised me to reach out to Waze, since i am told this is an App related issues.
In my opinion the ability to use Google assistant is very critical when we are on HIghways, since, there could be any critical reason you may want to communicate to the Assistant to read a text or send a message to a person about any critical update while enroute to home or office. I…

Remove our tiny street from Waze. Not enough room for 2 cars to pass. (Lake View Avenue, 90039)
We live on a tiny street in Silverlake, Los Angeles that is technically 2 way, but only fits one car. Waze has increasingly been sending inexperienced drivers here which creates havoc because there are no shoulders or driveways to pull into (no sidewalks either).
Thanks!
Please remove Lake View Avenue, 90039. Cross streets are Silver Ridge and India St.
Thank you!

Have Waze check the hours of operation to ensure you will arrive while destination is open.
I went to Lowes on Sunday, only to find out that the closest store to me was closed on Sundays (Blue Laws). There were 2 other Lowes stores that were close by that were open.
Suggestion: When entering a destination that has the hours of operation completed, have Waze tell driver that the location is closed, or that it will be closed at ETA. Driver can then override the message and still go to destination, or pick a new destination of same type or name. Of course, this would only work for locations that have hours of operation.

Present Route Options First
I recently was going to drive home, a 30 mile trip. Waze said traffic was bad and it was going to take an hour and twenty minutes. I opened up the route options and was appalled to see Waze was going to take me on a route 52.7 miles (for a 30 mile trip) to save 11 minutes. Drive an extra 22.7 miles?! Cmon Waze, gotta do better than that. Please initiate routes by allowing us to select our route by showing us an overview of our options. Thanks!

Waze maps to closest street instead of named street
I have noticed a few times lately that Waze seems to map the directions to the closest street to the gps point of the address, which is not always the same as the street the address is on. This means, for instance, that where there are houses which are set back from the street, Waze often maps to a neighboring street instead of the correct street, because it's closer to the marker.
In one residential neighborhood with houses set back from the street, one address is mapped to a nearby condo complex behind the house. Another house is mapped to…

STOP 180° car rotation when standing still
So I come to a stop light, and after a while, my car and map (not the screen) rotates, I guess, as it thinks I actually did make a U turn. Problem is my speed is 0km/h. It happens even when you have a destination to navigate to, and then, all of u sudden, I'm turned around and I'm being shown to make first to the right. I start driving, the whole thing rotates ones again, and I miss my left turn !?!?! I think it's because it get's a satellite position which shifted a bit, so it thinks that…
