  1. x Prediction Feature

    A prediction feature. Example: Around 9:00 every Friday in the past 2 months traffic has been stopped on a stretch of road. Waze could put out an alert that says "Based on the past month's traffic use this route could be slow" even if no one has reported. Especially helpfully for being aware of authorities who tend to monitor traffic in the same locations.

  2. Caravan Mode / Follow Me Mode

    I've been thinking in a new mode for Wazers... I've been driving with family along the road in different vehicles, not once we've been able to keep the same speed or pace and we end loosing sight of where the vehicles are. In Mexico safety its a very important matter, and everytime we are not able to see where the other cars that are driving with us we call them or text them to see if everything is fine. I imagine a Caravan Mode in which multiple Waze accounts are linked for a trip and you can watch the vehicles…

  3. Total mileage for trip

    Show total mileage for the trip on the trip summary page for multi stop trips. If I have a 500 mile trip but add a stop 30 miles away, I only see the trip is 30 miles

  4. Registration plate recognition and automatic tagging of police vehicles

    Due to the proliferation of unmarked police cars and unmarked mobile speed cameras (parked cars) with no warning signs, it is now necessary to take it one step further and use the video feed from dash cams (both front and rear) and character recognition to automatically tag a police vehicle by its registration plate (after that registration plate has been manually tagged). If a user is travelling with that vehicle, the vehicle's location would be updated live. Once that user breaks away from the police vehicle, the location would then be picked up and updated live by other Waze users…

  5. Show and announce destination upon auto-suggestion navigation start.

    When starting navigation via auto-suggestion the driver in fact does not know where to until arrival :) which is sometimes fun, sometimes not. This is not related only to home/work , but also to calendar entries, when skipping one event for the next one calendar based destination takes me to the first place. I would rather be offered a bunch of 3 most probably destinations to choose from rather than stopping the naviagation just to know where to. The destination address shoud be clearly stated on the routes and routes detal views.

  6. Automatic start route -> Add more options (home, other wazers work, then home...)

    If I go everyday to centre for other wazer and together we go home, lets have another option then Automatic go home first.

    Go Centre -> Go in 5, 4
    Go Home -> GO instead
    Go Another saved place -> GO

    basic algorytm involved: sort by number of times visited. Option to turn off.

    Bonus: Multiple choice - if I can check like 4 od five saved places by one click.

  7. WAZE navigation system could be adapted to the nation's railroad netword where it could become a new-technology Positive Train Control.

    Railroad Safety: a Ten Billion Dollar Boondoggle
    Carl E. Nash, Ph.D.
    Derailments and collisions between trains are spectacular. Their economic and environmental consequences are considerable and they kill and injure people. In response, over the past forty years, pressed by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and Congress the railroads have been implementing Positive Train Control (PTC) systems to reduce the potential for these crashes.
    Actually, U.S. railroads are quite safe for passengers. An average of only 5 people die in train crashes each year: slightly more than are killed in motor vehicle crashes in…

  8. Soon turn notifications

    I need sooner notice of a turn. With a 14’ trailer full of equipment I need sooner notifications of a turn. At 50 mph there is no way to stop or slow down when I have very little notice of a turn.

    I need several notifications: 1/4 mile, 1500 feet, 1000 feet, 500 feet, 100 feet.

    If there was a setting to set this it would help.

  9. Collaborative Routing

    Waze works like the most other Navigation Apps. You can choose between 1 and 3 different fixed routes, that sometimes slightly change when there is a lot of traffic ahead. The problem is, that Waze works like a broadcast as far as I know.

    So when Route 1 have heavy traffic, all other users get Route 2 to avoid traffic. The problem here is, that new heavy traffic will be created to avoid the first.

    All cars following the same alternative route.

    Instead of rely on fixed routes, each user should get a personal routing suggestion l, each Route little…

  11. You have to get this app to stop overheating

    Waze is causing my iPhone 13 to overheat on a 20 minute journey and makes the app useless. It will damage the phone if I continue to use it. Someone needs to address this issue as I see from feedback and google it is not an isolated case nor unique to iPhones. It’s a great app but too risky to now use

  12. Stop telling us how to live our lives

    I had stopped using Waze because it seemed to like to tell me how to live my life. I gave it another try after months, and, amazing, no asking me if I'm a passenger, no telling me to socially distance or stop traveling. Did they learn their lesson or is this just a phase? Have they decided to just be a good GPS app now and not the social police?

  13. REINSTATING THE PREVIOUSLY USED ADDRESSES FUNCTION WHILE DRIVING

    Prior to driving to a new area or a new destination I will drop in addresses/locations into Waze and use them as waypoints as I am traveling. Also, when I am in a new area and I have previously found businesses, etc. that I frequent I would like to be able to have access to those address locations while I am driving like before. Now with the new voice only look up of a business while driving I no longer have access to said previously located addresses or waypoints while driving. I cannot begin to tell you how frustrating this…

  14. Label a planned drive

    Is there a way or can developers add a way to have the user label their “planned drives”. Currently the user just sees the address. I find myself scheduling multiple future planned drives and the day of when I check Waze and I’m saying “what am I doing at 124 main st again?”. Now if it had a label like Dental appointment, (124 Main Street) that would create a better user experience. Thx.

  16. Pile Up Warning

    Recently I avoided a near miss i attribute primarily to Waze giving me the advanced warning of trouble ahead. About a week later is when Texas suffered a 100+ car pile up and I thought wait a minute.

    I'd like to see the ability to report a "pile up" accident. I believe this should activate a push notification to users who have Waze installed, are on that road, and heading in that direction and when I say push, I mean push!
    Have blinking warning, audible voice saying " warning, major pileup ahead!"

    "Turn on your hazard lights, cautiously begin to…

  17. Speedometer Calibration

    I’ve noticed a consistent discrepancy between the speed shown in your app and the actual speed displayed on my car’s speedometer. For instance, when I’m driving at 120 km/h, the app shows 115 km/h. I’ve tested this across multiple vehicles, and the gap of about 5 km/h seems consistent.
    Could you please consider adding an option in the app to adjust or calibrate the speedometer reading? This would help users ensure more accurate speed tracking while driving.

  18. Speed bump notification not working well

    I am using Waze for navigation and speed bumbs notifications not appeard on my screen while navigating while it is working well with other users using the same route and at the same time, I suggest to solve this issue if other users face the same issue, and I suggest to make the speed bumbs notifications works even if I use the same way multiple times in the day.

  19. More route options than 3

    The user gets to choose from as many routes as possible, ordered by time, trip range and optional personal preference (let's say a stop they plan on making or a specific route they prefer to take).

  20. intentional unmark of police point

    People from police are intentionally unmarking existing stationary police points, to not be recognized.
    Maybe its possible to update waze to stop this intentional unmarking mostly on police speed checking points.
