  1. Automatically break up long routes

    Waze has a hard time calculating long (several hundred miles) trips, because of all the data it tracks. The solution is to break your trip up into shorter segments. I propose to have Waze do this automatically.

    When a very long trip is requested, have Waze calculate the route, then set the person's destination to an intermediate point. When they reach that point, set it to the next intermediate point, etc., ending up at their final destination. This would ease the lag in the app when, for instance, Waze has to re-calculate your 800-mile route. Instead, it would only be…

  3. METEO LUNGO IL PERCORSO E NELL'INDIRIZZO DI DESTINAZIONE

    dovete mettere anche il Meteo lungo il percorso! Consumerebbe un sacco di dati, ram e batteria, però sarebbe favoloso, poter vedere il meteo nella città destinataria e magari in quelle vicine dettate dalla mappa.

    Grazie a tutti, ottima applicazione, mi trovo sempre bene quando la uso!

  4. Suggestion of inclusion of hazardous areas

    Hello, I would like to suggest an inclusion of tagging by users or even by the developer of dangerous areas and if it is marked by the user, after a certain number of markings, that the area or street is marked for a longer period or permanently

  5. Garage sale app

    Waze should add a garage sale app where people could for a fee, post an address and the day and time they will have them. Then the garage sale will appear when the event happens. People could search for garage sales. Garage sale hunting is big business and it is currently being done by people hanging signs on street corners. People have to drive to search for these sales which waste a lot of time and gas. It harms the environment.

  6. Safe Area

    It would be great if Waze gave some kind of general warning for areas that are no go areas due to crime. Sadly South Africa has too many of these areas. I am a South African and use Waze daily. Its also dangerous for tourists. You can literally within 2 roads find yourself in a very dangerous and dark area that is full of crime.

  8. Emergency Mode

    In states of emergency, such as natural disasters, hurricane, floods, earthquakes. It would be nice if Waze switched to "Emergency Mode" in this mode you can mark gas stations as having gas or not with notes about long lines. Ads would be removed and replaced with the location of emergency services (Hospitals, shelters) and locations can be marked with water/canned food/ propane..

  9. When showing "Routes" options, show "average speed" per option.

    When showing "Routes" options, in addition to "time" and "distance", show "average speed" per option. A user may want to choose an option whereby he/she is moving at a greater average speed, even if it means extending the duration of the trip, especially if the added duration is insignificant. For example, a user may prefer to travel 60 km in 1 hour than 40 km in 55 minutes because instead of siting in traffic the user is moving at a greater speed.

  10. Look on map events from Report ahead list

    It would be useful if you can see on map events listed in Report ahead. Let say you are driving and you notice some traffic jam ahead so you just select that event and it shows on map where you can decide if you change your way or stay.

  11. Display Saved Time when Waze changes the route in case of traffic

    The idea would be to be able to accept or deny the route change when Waze decides there is a best route than the current one.
    In other words, let us accept or not to switch to the new route depending on haow much tilme is saved. For me saving 1 to 5 minutes on a new route is not always necessary.

  14. Skip suggested turn

    It would be helpful to be able to skip a turn that Waze suggests when I know that I'm not going to make that turn. This way, Waze could already be recalculating instead of waiting for me to miss the turn and THEN recalculating, which takes time. So maybe there could be a button to press to make Waze calculate the next available turn. This would be useful when Waze tries to send me on a street that I know will be packed at that time of day or that I know is a hazardous street.

    I think it's self explanatory. Since the inception of consumer grade GPS, I have held that Bobcat Goldthwait would be the best navigation voice. You have the power....but do you have the cojones?

  16. Give us a target speed in traffic jams to help Waze users optimize average throughput

    I recently read this article: http://www.bbc.com/autos/story/20160428-how-ai-will-solve-traffic-part-one

    It talks about how going slower and keeping more space between your car and other cars can actually improve the flow of traffic when it's all jammed up. It also explains how autonomous cars will make this work much better, but also indicates that we can help improve things now by changing our driving behavior.

    The article also explains how the highway patrol sometimes sends cars through traffic jams on the highway to break it up and re-channelize it.

    If the Waze app could give users a target speed based on traffic conditions, and…

  17. Make Traffic Slowdowns More Visible when using Directions

    Invert the color scheme when using directions so the purple stripe is not overshadowing traffic red/yellow/orange. Example: https://twitter.com/steviecoolest/status/723576075452841985

  18. Make a difference between a solo police speed radar control and traject control.

    When you enter a traject speed control zone, it would be great to have a time bar in the display, just the way it is shown during traffic jam. Off course for traject speed contole zone, it should be in a other color

  19. Proximity routing for Home/Work

    Many people use waze on a daily basis as a way to avoid traffic. We know how to get home or to work, and sometimes our work places have multiple entrances. These entrances don't always trigger waze that you have arrived, so even once I'm in the building, suddenly I hear waze trying to route me through the office hallways from my pocket.....

    A new feature called "proximity routing" that the user can enable for their "home/work" locations would take care of this problem. Once the driver gets close, waze would indicate you have arrived and go into sleep mode.…
