Add option to "stop re-routing" once travel has begun, unless I deviate from it.
If you are like me, and like to review your route and prepare for it, especially in an unfamiliar place, sudden route changes that can save you 5 minutes can cause more trouble than it's worth. Let's add an option to "lock route" once you chose it and start driving, and don't recommend a quicker one unless I deviate from the preset route. This keeps you more comfortable on the route you have prepared for, so you don't have to worry about sudden changes in unfamiliar territory.

It would be nice if Waze would stop giving voice advises when I’m using Google assistant.
Please mute navigation instructions when Google assistant is active. Otherwise assistant picks up also navigation instructions as assistant commands
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! Waze will soon support Google Assistance voice control. To know more about this feature, stay tuned on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

Add ad
When you click on an advertiser -- you have option to "add' stop to your route and not to replace your existing route.
If I see an advertiser and decide to stop and click on the link, I am still on my previous route and would like to "add" in the new stop (just as we can do on our own) versus replace the existing route. A bit frustrating to have to re-initiate pre-existing route just because I selected the option to visit an advertiser's establishment.

Stop the app suggesting a "better" route during a drive if it'd require a sudden change of lanes/direction
I've just dealt with a user report complaining that their app will sometimes suddenly change the route as they're approaching a major junction, and in order to follow the new route would require a late and potentially dangerous change of lanes.
Given we now have lane guidance and lane count details available in the map data, it should be feasible to work out when it might be a really crazy idea to be telling the user to start following a different route to the one they're currently on, due to the need to make a sudden change of lanes, and…

Unassisted Left Turn / Unassisted Crossings
Please add an option to avoid unassisted left turns in North America. Difficult intersections helps, but doesn't help someone with limited confidence in making left turns whether it be from disability (limited range of motion), experience, etc. Many routes have slight deviations to make turns safer. This same logic may also apply to crossing a busy highway without a light. In these cases, it may make sense to make a right, then a left, and another right - if possible.
An option to route the driver to a left assisted by a stop light, or an all-way stop or a…

The vehicle speed set to 0 and map display jumps on GPS blinds spots
The Speed Problem:
I noticed that when the car enters a cave my speed per hour gets reset back to 0 and when I leave the cave it goes back.Plus - The Map Display Problem:
When I get inside the cave the map display feature of the car/arrow icon stops working:
(the car/arrow icon would stop moving and then jump back to the end of the cave when I leave).I believe that the map feature and speed is working by gps to locate the vehicle location and time to calculate the speed which makes the car km/h /…

improve directions for intersection of Avenue Road and Glencairn Avenue, Toronto, Ontario
Traffic is not allowed to cross Avenue Road on Glencairn Ave., or to turn left - for both eastbound and westbound traffic. There have been many accidents at this site and signs are posted. Yet Waze sends vehicles across Avenue road in a manner that is contrary to local road laws. There is no light or stop sign at this intersection; traffic on Avenue Road is through traffic and not required to stop. Please stop sending vehicles across Avenue Road when they are traveling on Glencairn Ave. in Toronto, Ontario. The accidents cost all of us time and money.

Turn way advantage guidance

Please do not put pick-up points at no-parking area.
More than once, the app directed me to stop at a no parking area for pick up. This is crazy and confusing.

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…

Nahtlose Übergänge: Routen-Form-Punkte & flexible Autobahn/Landstraßen-Priorisierung
Feature-Vorschlag: Routen-Form-Punkte & Nahtloser Straßenwechsel
Viele Nutzer wünschen sich eine einfache Möglichkeit, bestimmte Streckenabschnitte (z. B. bevorzugte Landstraßen oder eine bestimmte Autobahnauffahrt) in die Routenplanung einzubeziehen, ohne dazu komplizierte Zwischenziele setzen zu müssen. Aktuell führt die strikte Orientierung an der „optimalen“ Route in ländlichen Gebieten oder an komplexen Autobahnzugängen oft zu unnötigen Abbiegungen, Schleifen oder unnatürlichen Umwegen.
Ich schlage zwei Funktionen vor, die dieses Problem effizient lösen würden:
- Routen-Form-Punkte (Route Shaping Points)
Leicht platzierbare Punkte, die als weiche Präferenzen dienen. Sie formen den Verlauf der Route, ohne tiefe Eingriffe oder starre Zwischenstopps.
Eigenschaften:
Priorität einstellbar (niedrig/mittel/hoch)
Einflussradius wählbar
Flexibel: Route…

To be able to see favorites (gas stations, businesses) enroute to a destination.
You're on a trip and you'd like to stop for coffee or gas at a favourite company on the way to a destination but you don't want to see locations behind you or out of the way.

Join a drive
you should have an option to join a friends drive (like on Spotify how you join someone’s jam), so when you’re picking up a friend or when you have a passenger they can join your drive and add a stop without you having to pull over to use your phone

Amélioration
Bonjour,
Serait-il pas judicieux d'indiquer sur la cartographie les feux rouges et les panneaux STOP lors de la navigation sur l'itinéraire comme sur Maps

CarPlay (iOS 26) – unable to select destination suggestions when searching
Hello,
after updating to iOS 26, the destination suggestions in Waze on CarPlay stopped working.
The suggestions appear when typing, but they cannot be selected. I always have to type the full address and press search.
Before iOS 26 this worked fine, and it was safer than typing the whole address.
Please fix this issue. Thank you.1 vote -
Feedback on the deviation from suggested route
Instead of asking riders to stop and report, like when they take a detour. Why cant we ask for a feedback for diverting from the suggested route.
Also a one tap button to report, which we can detail out at the end of the journey.
