  1. Use accelerometers and gyroscopes to suppliment GPS data

    Use accelerometers and gyroscopes to increase accuracy of location with with virtually no power increase. It would also allow navigation through tunnels and such when GPS location is lost. It would also prevent erroneous movement while stopped at a traffic light. There are companies testing this type of technology. One that I have been following but have no financial interest in is navisens.com There are videos from navisens at https://www.youtube.com/user/navisens

    Thank 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!

    Want to try another voice?

    Tap Menu and tap the Settings wheel.
    Tap Voice & sound.
    Tap Voice Language and select the voice you’d like to use.

  3. reposition notification in landscape mode

  5. criar alertas: zona de risco de assaltos; semáforo quebrado

    Principalmente no Brasil e mais especificamente em São Paulo, criar dois alertas muito importantes. Um deles é o alerta de semáforo quebrado em cruzamento movimentado; Outro alerta importante é o alerta de zona com alto índice de assaltos, assalto recente e zona com alta criminalidade.

  6. Add angry icon for jumping queue area or activity

    As a way to educate drivers who jump / cutting queue. The icon or symbol of angry face is to indicate that we do not condone such behavior. Those who don't like this bad activity can click on the icon and number of clicks will be increased. The symbol can also be used by authority to take action on those bad drivers.

    Hey,   

    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2023 and this idea won't be implemented this year. We hope to have it included in our plans for later years and will keep you posted. Thanks!

  9. Map icon indicator showing destination is on the left side or right side

    When approaching your destination, there needs to be a Left side or Right side indicator icon on the map. I live in a city where there's a 3-4 lane one-way road and is frustrating when I'm approaching my destination and it doesn't tell me if it's going to be on the left side or right side. I don't use the map voice so that's not an option. Please do not tell me this feature exists when it doesn't.

  10. Entry points depending on vehicle type

    Entry points depending on type of vehicle can be a very nice feature. For example, if you're driving a private vehicle and you're going to a mall, your entry point should be the parking lot, but for an Uber the entry point should be the front door of the place.

  11. Copilot feature

    I have a suggestion that I think would be excellent and differentiating from other applications. This is a functionality that could be called "Copilot", and that allows a device with a Waze account to establish a new destination to a different device. For example, I have Waze on my device while I'm driving, and my wife can set a new destination for me from her own device without having to touch mine, for that reason I thought the function could be called "Copilot".

    This same functionality would also be very useful when navigating with CarPlay, so that I can continue…

  13. Road Colouring on Average Speed Check Zone

    When driving in an average speed check zone, Waze doesn’t say when you have left it - so can be driving for miles past the end.
    Can Waze change the colour or pattern of the road to show drivers when they are in the zone and not just passing the cameras.

  16. Separate toggles for Toll Bridges and Express Lanes

    Please add an option to avoid Express Lanes while still using Toll Bridges.
    The HOV lanes in my area are being converted to Express Lanes that charge excessive tolls (closing in on $10) to use them. I refuse to drive in them. However, it's necessary for me to cross toll bridges to get to work (avoiding them will add an hour to my commute). If I tell Waze to avoid tolls, I avoid the Express Lanes AND the Toll Bridges, which is terrible.
    Separating the 'Toll' toggle into 'Toll Bridges' and 'Express Lanes' would be very helpful.

  18. No left without light option

    I find too option Waze has me make Left turns where there is no Lights at these very difficult intersections. I think an option to avoid left left turns without lights altogether would be much easier and much safer. It would definitly benefit me.

  19. In-Depth Car Icons

    I think it would make Waze just a little bit better if you could have customisable car icons and choose your exact make and model and have like car conditions so for example i want to carpool but i can say " hey i want to carpool in a nice Mercedes S550" and i could see the people with the car that i want to carpool and i could see if i wanted to carpool in a nice car instead of a junky beater!
    I think that this would make waze just a little bit better!

  20. Variable Speed Limit Sign Integration

    Here in Northeast Ohio in our construction zones we have "Variable Speed Limit" signs. They are used to reduce the speed limit on a streth of road only when the work zone is active. Example stretches are the Interstate 271/480 stretch in Bedford and again on Interstate 480 in Parma. The 271/480 signs will be in use til 2021 according to the construction plan.

    There are several solutions:
    1) When entering reported construction zone there could be a pop up presented asking for current speed with known work zone MPH listed (see below)
    2) After pressing the speedometer/speed limit a…
