Add building/unit numbers, please, so drivers could actually find you in a complex
My mom lives in a condo, and when people put her address in Waze, it drops the unit number; no driver has been able to find her unit using Waze. It automatically takes them to the clubhouse, and from there, they get lost for a few good minutes and eventually call for help. If you can't accommodate unit numbers, then at least add in building number options. That would be a great help. Thanks.

O conceito de integração de visualização aérea para apps de GPS, permitindo que o usuário 'decole' um drone virtual para analisar
O projeto propõe a implementação de uma funcionalidade de 'Modo Drone' nos aplicativos Waze e Google Maps. Através de um ícone interativo na interface principal, o usuário pode acionar uma visualização aérea dinâmica de um raio específico ao redor do seu veículo. O objetivo é permitir que motoristas presos em congestionamentos tenham uma perspectiva visual imediata da retenção à frente, auxiliando na tomada de decisão sobre rotas alternativas com base em imagens reais, e não apenas em algoritmos de fluxo.

Direction
Bonjour, au lieu de donner les noms des rues et des routes, ne serait-il pas possible d'indiquer les directions indiquées sur les panneaux ? D'autant plus que les noms de rues ne sont affichés qu'en agglomération, et non sur les routes départementales et régionales..

Bumpy Roads Reporting for EMS
I’d like to suggest adding a “bumpy road” or “rough pavement” hazard option in Waze, along with an optional route preference for the smoothest roads.
For EMS and other medical transport drivers, road quality isn’t just about comfort—it directly affects patient care. Many patients we transport have conditions like bed sores, fractures, or severe pain, where even minor road bumps can cause significant discomfort or worsen their condition.
Currently, Waze does a great job helping drivers avoid traffic, hazards, and tolls. Adding a way to report and route around rough roads would be incredibly valuable for those of us transporting vulnerable patients. A “smoothest route” option—similar to avoiding highways or tolls—would allow EMS crews to prioritize patient comfort when time allows.
Even a simple, user-reported “bumpy road” alert could make a meaningful difference in improving ride quality and patient experience.
Thank you for considering this feature.

screen Layout
So as many before we love the product.
It would be nice if the map was smaller and the directions a tad bigger. It would outstanding if it spoke the exit number or name.
As an older (62) person, seeing the screen on my phone ( Samsung Ultra 24) i cant always see the exit number.1 vote -

ADHD-friendly ETA for the chronically late!
I'd really love if I could customise my drives not based on my past driving but to build in a buffer time (like add 5-10% to expected journey time, for example).
Part of the reason I like Waze so much is probably related to the fact I have ADHD and the instructions and clearly stated ahead of time ("...in 800m, turn right") and then repeated ("...in 200m, turn right").
Possibly because of that ADHD, I really struggle with being on time and poorly estimate how long things will take me. I try to build in a mental buffer, but because I know I've done that, it often doesn't work. This also means any past data on my driving is likely based on a journey where I was running late!
A navigation app where I could toggle on a buffer would be best, especially as a percentage which is not so intuitive that I'd unconsciously reverse-engineer it and mentally deduct those extra 7 minutes or whatever it might be the app added on to my predicted driving time.
I expect that seems a highly specific feature request, but it occurred to me that the Waze features that appeal to me might be ADHD-related and therefore, the app might actually have a higher than average number of ADHD users.

ALPR Avoidance
Widespread ALPR systems have recently drawn a lot of attention, and I believe that more users of turn-by-turn navigation apps including Waze will want to avoid driving past these cameras.
I would like to suggest that Waze implement a feature which allows users to view the location of known ALPR cameras, and also gives users the option to only use routes that avoid ALPR cameras.Thank you for considering this request, and for creating and supporting Waze!

Direcciones predefinidas
Estaría bien tener más direcciones predefinidas con su correspondiente icono, además de "Casa" y "Trabajo" como, por ejemplo, "Centro educativo", "Aparcamiento" o "Gimnasio".

Make the new arrow position work for those of us using the map facing North
Waze changed the position of the car to allow for more visibility for people who have the map facing their direction of travel, however they completely forgot about all of us who prefer the map facing North.
Now we are basically using 15% of the screen for navigation, the rest is dead space.
Also - whenever we are facing South we can’t see upcoming turns, forcing us to do potentially dangerous last minute lane changes.
This is a major safety concern and Waze needs to address it immediately!1 vote -
Final/total destination information including added trip to the existing laid-out route
Feature recommendation: Whenever a rider adds a destination to an existing laid-out route, the app doesn’t display final/total destination information, such as the combined distance and time to the final destination. For example, when I lay a route, I see the total miles and timing to complete the trip, and if I decide to add a coffee shop as a pit stop, it will show the total miles and timing to the pit stop rather than the whole trip. I would like to know what it would mean to me to have a pit stop that takes up some time when I reach the final destination, without losing any time upon arrival.

משתמש שסימן עצמו כרכב תקוע, בלחיצה עליו יהיה אפשרות שתיפתח נווט למקום הרכב התקוע.
כאשר אני נתקע עם הרכב במקום מסוים ואני מדוח באפליקציה על כך, אדם שרוצה להגיע אלי ולעזור לי, ברגע שהמשתמש יחלץ על הסמל של הרכב התקוע יפתח לו אפשרות של נווט למקום הרכב, ככה הוא יוכל להגיע ולעזור.

Please have directions announced earlier. By the time it says, "Exit right," I would've missed my exit.

View a route in steps display color
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make/create a way for Wazers to customize colors, icons and text sizes that work for them!!!
I have to use the Waze app. My display screen shows the map but in order to view the route in steps I have to use my iPhone. I have CarPlay, I don’t have a touchscreen, and I don’t have built in navigation system. The major issue is the inability to customize the background color, text color and the color of the icons, example: exit number, route number etc. by each step. The only options are a black background with white and dark blue text or a white background with black and dark blue text and the icons are the same color for each. Since there’s not enough contrast between the colors and not able to adjust the text and icon sizes everything blends together and is a little blurry to read.
I have checked every setting on my iPhone, I’ve tried changing color, size, zoom, contrast setting, I did a google search a way to change color settings too. Nothing I did worked. Wazers can customize their screen for driving during the day or night.PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make/create a way for Wazers to customize colors, icons and text sizes that work for them!!!

Manual Car washing points w/Price
Similar to the Gasoline Station with price it would be nice to see the manual car washing points with prices (e.g. 1 min = x EUR/USD, and opening time fo sure) on the map.

Indication péages
Bonjour,
Je voudrais vous proposer une suggestion d'amélioration.Cela concerne l'option "Eviter les routes à péages" .
Il serait pratique d'avoir sur l'écran principal de l'application un petit symbole (dollar ou euro) qui permettrait de rappeler si on est en mode "Eviter les routes à péages" actif ou pas.
En effet actuellement il faut aller chercher cette information dans le menu paramètres ce qui est plus compliqué (plusieurs clics)Peut-être pourrait-on trouver en bas de l'écran principal une petite zone pour afficher ce simple symbole. Il me semble qu'il reste un peu de place juste à droite de l'écran, sous le symbole "Son" par exemple.
En vous remerciant pour votre écoute.
Cordialement
Fred
