  1. Fix the voice of Sara

    I use the voice of Sara to navigate. I go on rt8 north from Ansonia ct to Seymore CT. befor I get on rt8 Sara says WAKELY st as it should be pronounced but when I get off exit 22 she pronounces WAKELY as WACKLY. WACKLY is not a street, road or ave in that area. On the screen it clearly says WAKELY when she says WACKLY.
    She pronounces WAKELEE as WAKELEE but she pronounces WAKELY as WACKLY. There is no WACKLY.
    Can you please fix this soon???

  6. Driving Alerts

    There needs to be an option to place a icon at a specific point. For example, Driver sees a local law enforcement hiding and wants to alert others but driver has already driven past said location.

    Basically while using Waze drivers can place markers along their route even if they have already driven a decent distance from where they want to place marker.

    When someone is searching for hospitals or emergency services, it would be helpful if Waze didn't reply with questions about who is driving and other questions.

  8. התראה על כביש מקורצף

    שלום רב,

    ברצוני להסב את תשומת ליבכם, לנושא התראה על כביש מקורצף (לקראת סלילה מחדש).
    כיום לא קיימת באפליקציה התראה כזו והייתי שמח אם הייתי מקבל התראה כזו מראש.
    .לעיתים קורה שמגיעים במהירות גבוהה לכביש מקורצף ויש כמין מדרגה בכביש.
    אציין כי כיום חלקים נרחבים מגוש דן משובשים עקב עבודות הרכבת הקלה,
    היה מאוד עוזר לי לו הייתי מקבל התראה המתאימה על כביש מקורצף.

  10. James Hetfield of Metallica user voice.

    Hi waze, it would be very cool to have a James Hetfield from Metallica (or with other band members too) voice navigation. The car could be a little guitar. And I can here James already say: « Next stop, turn right. Yeheah! »
    Or Lars saying « Turn left dude! »

    Thank you.

  11. Android Auto

    When in Android Auto Mode here are some tips that would make it easier to view on the screen while driving
    -Place the report button on the driver side of screen so that he/she doesn't have to reach across the screen to touch.
    -The information on the top (time, weather info, battery life, etc.) should be slightly bigger. If anything, the time should be bigger.
    -The speed indicator should be bigger or at least the number should be white not red (maybe placed on the driver side of screen?)
    -Have the option to add other apps on the bottom of…

  12. Route guidance Audio

    Fantastic app. Well done and thank you.

    In a future release, would it be possible to

    1. Optionally have the route guidance to the drivers side of the vehicle only so as not to disturb sleeping children / passengers?

    2. Optionally have the route guidance sent to bluetooth earbuds, not the car audio so that only the driver hears it.

    Thank you for all your excellent work.

  13. Allow other Wazers to see the icon you have your car set as

    I recently downloaded Waze and I absolutely love the app. There are so many customizable features that I can really make it my own. However, I was sorely disappointed when I realized that other Wazers cannot see that I’ve selected a helicopter as my personal car’s icon. While driving on the road, I had really hoped this would be the case, and have laughed many times at the prospect of other Wazers seeing a helicopter icon approaching them while I’m driving. Though I love the little emoticons, please allow a feature where we can see each other’s GPS icons!

  14. Audible way to acknowledge messages.

    Frequently there are messages from "Vehicle on side of road", "Police ahead", "road hazard" which require looking at the screen and can only be acknowledged by touching the screen which is a distraction, especially in high traffic.
    Is there a way to be able to acknowledge the "Thanks" or "not there" by voice so as to be less of a distraction?

  15. Give reason for suggested route change.

    1. Have tone or spoken message that there is a suggested route change to draw your attention to something on the screen.
    2. Have the message stay on screen until acknowledged.
    3. Have default to stay on selected route, if reason is just quicker by a few minutes or shorter.
    4. Only change route IF traffic is blocked or significant delay due to accident or some other non normal event.

    Your algorithm that reports duplicate reports is wrong. It assumes that the LAST located report is the real thing and prior nearby reports are duplicates. This is incorrect. You should assume that reports are NOT duplicates at all. Let me give an exact case. On the highway n12/n3 intersection on the corner of woodmead (suburb) in Johannesburg RSA, starting at -26.047675193550557, 28.093193441959258 and ending at -26.03960699164605, 28.067755371505946, on the date 31 Nov 2021 at around 4pm, there were THREE stopped vehicles at the roadside. Your system recorded them as THREE REPORTS at the LAST location, rather than three separate reports.…

    I find it frustrating to have to confirm the instruction. If I search an address, and it is found, and I tap it to select it, it must IMMEDIATELY go back to the map and show the navigation route, it must not ask me if I want to navigate there, and then offer me the route selection, and then show the map. That is really tedious. I just want to choose the address and go.

  19. Is it possible to add "Places of Worship" to your Categories Section, amongs the Drive-Thru , Parking, Hospitals, etc?

    In the categories section, have a Places of Worship section. If I wanted to find "sacred Heart Church, Teddington", or the "Woolwich Sikh Temple" or a synagogue in Surrey, it would be great.

  20. Stress Index

    Roads or locations should have optional customizable 'Stress Minutes' associated with them. We always add 20-30 stress minutes to the George Washington Bridge to avoid the stress associated with that crossing. This usually sends us over the M. Cuomo bridge instead.
