    So on trips that we take everyday only notify if there is a change in route. I don't need to hear everyday to take this exit and then stay left

  3. Turn On/Off Avoid Freeways in CarPlay

    Would like a way to toggle on/off avoid freeways in CarPlay. When driving locally many times I would prefer to avoid freeways even if technically they are a little closer/faster. It would be helpful to be able to do this on CarPlay rather than having to open the navigation settings on the phone.

  4. Category Icons and Provider indicator in Search Autocomplete results

    When we view Search autocomplete results, and even when we view "more" results
    * Show category icons, so we can see the difference between a grocery store, a gas station, and a bus stop. This icon could be in the donut hole in the middle of the pin icon.
    * Also indicate which are from Waze and which are from external providers (perhaps by putting a blue colored pin for Waze results and a gray colored pin for Google results, for example

    Use case:
    If I search for "Giant Eagle Verona" in Pennsylvania, USA, the results include
    * The Giant…

    Hey, 


    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.

    We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

    Thanks!

  6. Modo turista

    Una nueva.caracteristica que permita configurar el modo turista, configurando el radio de distancia y proporcionando informacion hablada y detallada, en el idioma configurado, sobre los principales monumentos, poblaciones y puntos de interes por los que vamos pasando. Seria un excelente navegador y guia turístico, y totalmente innovador.

  7. Mark overtaking lanes on back roads / B road highways

    On minor highways (in Australia at least) they are often one lane in either direction, with the occasional overtaking lane being two lanes in one direction, one in the other.
    These can be 10km+ apart and aren’t signposted until they are close.
    It would be nice to colour indicate these lanes on the map so the driver/passenger can see if it is worth waiting to overtake a vehicle in the single lane road or wait until the safer overtaking lane

  8. Send photo to report speed camera

    Normally when you report a speed camera, it just will send the position and type of camera to WME. It will help to waze editors if users can send a photo of the camera with the report. And also, add posibility to editors communicate with the user who reports to ask more information as a normal report.

  9. Keep the app from turning off navigation

    If you have the app open in the background, or while the screen is off or locked, navigation can stop if you are stopped for too long. This is beyond frustrating. When I am riding my motorcycle, I listed to the navigation on my bluetooth system. I keep my phone screen locked in my pocket. However, if I am stopped in traffic or at a stop light too soon, then navigation will completely stop. I have to stop, unlock my phone, and then when I open waze, it asks if I want to resume navigation. DO NOT AUTO STOP NAVIGATION.…

  10. 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.

  11. Car pointer more centered

    Especially when in landscape mode, the car pointer is at the very bottom of the screen, what does not allow to have a good view of the roads and surroundings.
    Please make at least an option to have the car pointer more centered on the screen.

  12. Common Route Change Alert.

    We all have a weekday routine driving to work in the morning and back home in the evening. Most times we do not turn on Waze since the rout does not change. When there are traffic problems in that common route, I'd like to receive an alert from Waze informing me to switch on and follow a faster route automatically.

  13. I'd like to be able to add a stop along a drive in the Android Auto implementation.

    In the normal Waze UI, I can add a stop along my trip. In Android Auto, I cannot do this. The Google Navigation app on Android Auto allows it and makes the UI for such a feature pretty simple to manage.

  14. Waze for the handicapped

    I think it would be extremely beneficial for Waze to expand its horizons to help handicapped people find accessible routes to make their commute easier. Even seemingly mundane tasks become arduous given that every navigation system is catered toward visibly able individuals. Maybe partner up with the commuters themselves and create these routes! Google maps should install this feature, pronto.

  16. Tell Wazers to form a rescue alley in a traffic jam

    When you are in a traffic jam you have to form a rescue alley (in germany and many other countries). But nobody is doing so. That's making it hard for the ambulance to reach the injured people.

    Please tell the wazers to form a rescue alley when waze recognizes a traffic jam.

  17. Tunnel Navigation bluetooth OBDII

    Typically GPS signal is lost in long tunnels. Why not include a waze connection to a bluetooth enabled OBDII device in your car to give accurate speed. The direction is immaterial as the tunnel path is well known.The devices are cheap about $5 to $20 on ebay. Waze would benefit by knowing speed through tunnels. Yes, beacons are good, but not if they are sparsely placed.

  19. Add arrive button

    Sometimes when arriving at very large places, Waze thinks that you arrive only when you are in the front door of the place. Think for example in a mall, the parking lot will be huge, but Waze already traced the route until the front door.
    An "arrive" button will help Waze to understand that you are already at your destination and there is no need to recalculate the route while you are looking for a parking spot

  20. MORE navigation options, in addition to shorter time or distance

    I would LOVE for waze to have multiple options for routes. For instance :
    Standard options:
    - shortest distance
    - shortest time
    Standard avoids :
    - avoid toll roads
    - avoid highways

    New ones:
    - least turns
    - least traffic lights ;

    New avoiding routes:
    - avoid construction routes
    - avoid one lane streets
    - avoid streets with traffic moving slower than

    All of these should be able to mix and match and specify further details. For instance it would be great if it showed option to list trips within X percent of time to shortest time trip. It can…
