option to disable the "This route is x faster than this other route"
Currently, after choosing a destination in Waze, it will also tell you that the route it's telling you is faster than some other route.
Why is theere a need to tell me that the current route is 6 minutes, 10 minutes, 17 minutes faster than the other route? It's a waste of time waiting for it to stop describing the slower route's time and streets/highways.
I would like an option to disable the post-selection vocal description of slower routes.

Informing WAZE of blocked roads is problematic
Informing WAZE of blocked roads is problematic. There should be just one quick button which only says blocked and is used when the road that WAZE recommended was not taken because it was blocked. Currently a four way intersection has four choices on which part is blocked but you cannot stop in the middle of a busy intersection to tell WAZE which of the four roads is blocked. Past the intersection, it is difficult to enter this data into WAZE while still driving. A single blocked button will let WAZE figure out which recommended road was not taken.

Line guidance / colour of the arrows
Hello,
Would it be possible to change the colors of the arrows? In red the routes that should not be taken, in green those that should be taken?
On my phone, the lanes to take appear in dark white and those not to be taken in light gray.
When you need this functionality, it's usually in an unfamiliar place and you have to concentrate more on the road.
A quick glance cannot differentiate white from gray.Thank you

Turn off the 'car info' button. Can't tell where I am with it there... ridiculous. .

This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being, since we’re focusing on features which would potentially benefit larger groups of Wazers.

Android Auto - Allow Waze destination "history" to be displayed as part of Android Auto.
"Native" Waze on my android phone shows past historical destinations when I initiate a new destination search. When using Waze as part of Android Auto - only destination favorites are shown. Please allow Waze to show historical destination list when used in Android Auto.

Route History
I had the problem of having to think about what route I took when passing through tolls. I think it would be helpful if you can look at past routes. I know there's history but it just gives you location not the route you had to take. Tollways require the plaza numbers and the history of your route could allow someone to look at their history to find out this information.

Take into account holiday traffic
During holidays traffic over here, and i guess in most of the world, is quite different. I do a 100 km round trip every day and I appreciate that waze not only takes into account the current conditions but also takes into account what traffic is going to be like when I eventually get there. But during holidays I have to ignore waze completely or I'll arrive half an hour later because waze is calculating a route taking into account what traffic will be like on a normal working day instead of vacation days. And since waze already takes into…

Add "avoid side streets" option
In certain neighborhoods, side street routes are unsafe and not necessarily faster than sticking with the main drag: nothing like having to wait with 3 of my fellow Wazers while an onstreet drug deal concludes in front of us (side street alternative route directed by Waze in NE DC). Or maybe just add "Drug deal in progress" to the notifications?

highway wrong direction car alert
it could be useful to add an alert to inform other wazers that a car is driving in wrong direction (very useful for the Highways). The alert will blink to any wazer smartphone display that is driving that way before the alert point.
This feature could permit alerted drivers to mantain the right lane till the end of the emergency.13 votes -
No alerta ZONAS PELIGROSAS
Considero importante que en el trayecto durante la navegación evite transitar por ZONAS PELIGROSAS (ZP) ya que cuando uno no conoce la zona por la que transita se encuentra que, guiado x el gps, termina pasando por asentamientos q resultan peligrosos. Al menos, opino que la aplicación podría avisar que durante el trayecto se va a transitar por una Zona Peligrosa para uno poder elegir si desea cambiar el trayecto.

Make Waze alert me when I'm near somewhere
Make Waze alert me when I'm near somewhere
Calendar events are triggered by time, right?
What if...
You want to go to a place, but you don't need to go any time soon, so you plan ahead, and say:
When I drive close to "this" place, I'll stop by.
So what I want is this:
I tell Waze, I'll need to get to "X" place.
Remind me when I get as near as "1/5/10 Km."13 votes -
Botão para radar
Os novos radares estão fora de localização, pois até acessar e postar um novo radar ele já passou, a inclusão deveria ser de fácil acesso, como por apenas um botão na tela.

Roadside assistance
Add an option for drivers to report they need roadside assistance and drivers on route will get a notification on the matter.
The assistance could be anything from help changing a tire or the need of jumper cables etc... I also think that a good incentive is to give waze points to drivers who stop and help...
Really think this is an easy to do update that will help people in need (the whole point of waze is a social navigation app...)13 votes -
Show more navigation instructions when losing GPS signal
It would be nice if the client could show more than the next turn (on the screen) when driving by navigation and the GPS signal is lost.
The next turn is shown in green on the bottom left corner, and the 3 following driving instructions could show up in orange above this when GPS signal is lost.
If there is a speed cam between two of the next turns, is should also show up in this "navigation list".

Add Support for Oval Country-Code Symbols in Visual Instructions
Description:
In many European and international transit corridors, road authorities frequently use the white oval country‑code symbol (e.g., A, D, CH, H, I, SLO, HR) on direction signs, gantries, and even road surface markings. These symbols are universally recognized by drivers and originate from the international vehicle registration codes defined in the Geneva Convention on Road Traffic (1949) and the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic (1968).Because these ovals appear prominently on real-world signage—especially in countries with heavy cross‑border traffic—they are an essential visual cue for navigation. However, in Waze they are currently difficult and cumbersome to reproduce in visual…

Time based lane guidance
Atm you can't set Lane Guidance based on time. Unfortunately this is an inconvenience in places like Melbourne, Victoria, Australia where certain lanes change depending on the time of the day.
