  2. Waze for new drivers (permits, junior licenses)

    In some states (like NY), you are not allowed to drive on certain roads or bridges with a driver's permit. For example, there are several parkways and most of the bridges and tunnels in/out of NYC except the GWB and Lincoln Tunnel. And in NYC, you cannot drive on roads in a park. It would be great if there was an option to select navigation that avoided these particular restricted roads.

  3. Stop Route Changes Automatically

    When I choose one of the 3 route options DON’T change it just because I take a different road along the way. As long as I am still able to get to the chosen route don’t change to a new one automatically. People know the advantages of roads local to their starting point. There is no need to override those choices.

  4. Multi-day future planned routes + Weather condition integration & notifications coinciding with future route planning

    It would be helpful if Waze allowed for planned routes that are regularly occurring to be set e.g. (Mon-Fri 8am-5pm). As well as a notification if there are any weather conditions that may affect that planned commute. If so, a general recommendation of what time to leave to allow for possible traffic build up in order to arrive on time. Essentially it would require weather integration, possibly AccuWeather.

  6. prioritize search results in the direction of travel.

    When traveling long road trips, it there some way to prioritize searches only in the direction of travel? In the current setup When looking for restaurants, or shopping, it never fails, Waze is constantly trying to send me backwards 5, 10 or 20 miles behind me to get to something, I would prefer to have it only look ahead, even if its 40 or 50 miles ahead of me along my travel route, and not have to turn around and go back 10 miles for a business. Or at least give me the option to prioritize the business ahead of…

  9. Flash écran pour les alertes et/ou les changements de directions.

    Bonjour,
    je n'utilise pas les alertes vocales parce que j'écoute souvent la radio et que celles-ci viennent couper le fils des discutions.
    Par contre je passe parfois à coté d'alerte parce que mon oeil n'a pas capté qu'il y avait un danger devant ou un changement d'itinéraire par rapport à d'habitude.
    je propose une option qui consisterait a faire une flash rapide avec l'écran (par le flash de l’appareil photo ... il est derrière l'écran ...) pour avertir de ces alertes ou des changements de directions.

  10. ezpass only roads (I-66 VA)

    Waze should pop up a warning to tell users you MUST have an EZPass to use this road. This is a new issue that applies to I-66 in northern Virginia between I-495 (beltway) and DC. Effective Monday, December 4, 2017 this critical highway in the DC area used by many out of state folks, tourists and business folks alike, you must have an EZPass to get on this road. The tolls are dynamic during rush hour and have no price cap. Tolls can be $40 or more. Waze should warn drivers of this. Given the complexity of the tolling program …

  11. Offline bike navigation (for iPhone)

    I’m a pizza driver and when I don’t know what route I should take, I have to consult a navigation app. Thing is, there is no navigation app like yours... so if you could please add this feature, I’d download your app in a heartbeat.

  12. search and set destination by grid reference

    In the UK, websites often give a Grid Reference as opposed to a Postcode for the location of an event, especially in the countryside where a postcode covers a large area. The grid reference is therefore a more accurate way of indicating the destination.

  13. Inshore boat hazard and police icons

    Please add a boat police icon for inshore "water waze." Many times we are detained and searched on the way into the ramps or home and it would be nice to know what areas are being observed and delayed by police and game wardens. I was thinking of a sinking boat for hazards and a blue light boat for law enforcement.

  14. sugestão de alerta: fogo/fumaça na rodovia

    Alerta de fogo/fumaça na rodovia é muito útil, pois ocorrem diversos acidentes com engavetamentos nestas condições e é uma situação infelizmente cada vez mais comum no período da seca.

  15. Route change warning due to traffic or closure

    It would be nice to get a warning of when a route is changed from the original route, especially taking local roads instead of freeway due to traffic or closure. I could see a few traffic pins before navigating, but usually it's not a big deal because it's typically a minor slowdown. At times, there are no pins before navigating because the route is different than normal. People are accustomed to their daily routine route that it can cause temporary confusion on why the route is changed.

  18. you need to add a map button on the map to enable or disable freeway routing. often, a freeway will not be my best route, this would help

    an onscreen button is needed to change from freeways to avoid freeways. Often, I would like to change enroute from freeway to surface roads and it takes many steps to do so. one button to change on or off onscreen would be a big help

  19. Directions alert

    The “audio alert” given by the program proves to be very punctual when travelling in town or small villages, as the alerts are given with sufficient anticipation.
    Instead I believe the alerting system become less effective on highways or expressways, where the speed of the vehicle is much higher and the driver’s reaction to further maneuvers is evidently reduced. There is in fact no “preliminary” alert of the subsequent step to be taken, such as “You exit will be at 1000 meters”; this preliminary alert would give, in my opinion, a sort of range of the “distance” for the future…

  20. Police Zones

    Every time you drive on the highway, there are always spots where cops will hide out. Most people will slow down near no u-turn areas because they know of cops hiding there. When somebody makes a report of a cop in an area multiple times, zones or blue circles should be lightly covered on the map and fade over time. These zones will let users know "hey cops like this area a lot" or "ok cops do camp out over here just not recently". I think zoning is an easy thing to add and it helps people slow down in…
