  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  7. 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…

  8. 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…

  11. Botão "não estou nesta faixa"

    Frequentemente, ao trafegar por vias expressas onde há faixas locais paralelas, ocorre uma tendencia do gps posicionar o usuário ao longo da rota calculada, ao invés da real posição do GPS, por exemplo a rota é pela pista expressa e o usuário escolhe a pista local, o Waze não identifica a mudança, não fazendo um novo cálculo de rota, (como se não confiasse na precisão do GPS) isso é ruim para todos, pois além de não ajudar com uma nova rota, gera dados incorretos sobre a via para outros usuários. Um botão "não estou nessa faixa" permitiria facilmente informar ao…

    PLASE Waze take us exactly at the intended address, in front of the entrance of intended building, no alleyways, back or side of building

    It's such a waste of time every time it happens.

  13. Automatic Favorites

    If I deviate from my route and stop for any length of time, Waze should prompt me to add as a favorite place when I resume. For example if I stop at grocery store, car wash, gym or any other place on way home I'd like to have I my favorite places to add as stop on future trips. Likewise if I'm on a trip and stop at great place to eat, I might want to stop next time.

  15. Motorcycle and rally communities

    For people to use Waze for navigation for groups (either leading and or distributing to a group) it would be great IF a person could go to Google Maps, make a route, then send it to Waze for navigation.
    I plan group motorcycle rides on Google Maps, but then there is no way for me to get that electronically over to GPS (I use my Android phone (waze) for navigation).
    I wind up still printing the Google Maps and putting them in my Tank back to follow.. Seems so 2005,,,

  16. Message alerts settings

    In the new version of Waze, when the phone is landscape, when a warning is shown (radar, stopped vehicle ...) it's appear on the top of the screen, avoiding the visualization of what is to come in the path. The suggestion is to allow set where to place these alerts. If the phone is in an horizontal position, would be more useful than alerts go out to the right or left of the screen covering part of the side and not the way to go.

  20. Indiquer les temps supplémentaires (delta) sur la carte à chaque croisement/sortie d'autoroute

    Sur un trajet quotidien, les routes alternatives sont souvent connues.
    Quand Waze indique de prendre un autre itinéraire que celui qu'on a l'habitude de faire, il peut être intéressant d'indiquer quel temps supplémentaire on mettrait en restant sur le chemin habituel.
    Une différence (delta) de 1 ou 2 minutes est peut-être sans importance.

    Le trajet alternatif peut manquer de wazer indiquant s'il est viable ou non. Du coup il appartient plutôt au conducteur de décider s'il souhaite l'emprunter ou pas.

    Ce que je suggère est d'indiquer par un nombre sur les routes sortant du trajet défini par Waze le temps…
