CarPlay volumn
Hello
I am so grateful that Waze now works with CarPlay on my new Mercedes E300. I noticed that Waze will reduce the volume of other apps on my iPhone, so that I can continue to hear the other app in the background as Waze provides navigation.
However, Waze appears to connect to CarPlay via the car's navigation volume control while other CarPlay apps connect to CarPlay via the car's entertainment volume control. Consequently, CarPlay stops other audio while Waze makes navigation announcements.
Nice would be a optional setting in Waze for how the app connects to CarPlay, via navigation…6 votes -
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…

Turn Signal about 200 feet sooner. 350 Feet Perfect!!
I was using Waze and I was having issues with the turn signal at 150 ft. I was missing turns. I drive for Uber. Please give me another 200 feet like google. 350 feet is perfect I'm not distracted by watching the Waze GPS.
At 350 feet I know it's time to slow down and put my blinker on. Now Waze gives the signal to turn at 150 feet I have to put my blinker on and turn immediately. I've missed a few turns. I feel it is unsafe when driving at Rush Hour or through crowded areas like Jersey…6 votes -
Express and local lanes
Problem: the GPS cannot precisely indicate which lane you are, if you are on express or local lane. This generates a risk to lead the driver to the wrong way since the driver will folllow what Waze says and cannot realize it's incorrect lane.
Solution: I have a solution to implement locally in the APP to distinguish if you are on local or express lane since the GPS cannot precisely indicate which lane you are.
The pseudo code is done and I can send to Google.
Using the voice, when Waze undertands that are 2 lanes for same road, ask…6 votes -
"Watch out, multiple alerts ahead"
If there was a vehicle stopped on road and a cop in the vicinity, Waze will only alert me of the cop. There should be multiple alerts that could be given to me at once.

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.

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..

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.

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.6 votes -
traffic light sequence
Major cities have synchronized traffic lights.
I'd suggest a couple of Waze features to help drivers make use of these systems:
1. indicate the optimal (real time) speed to "catch" the light sequence and optimize mpg by avoiding stops and braking
2. reroute to side streets to "parallel" dense traffic that's too slow to catch the light synchronized sequence (e.g. 19th ave, hwy 1 along main beach, geary blvd during commute hours)
3. learn the real time light sequences (especially to sync the cross streets for the whole route, e.g. going from 25th ave to geary blvd ... miss the…6 votes -
Rally navigator voice
What if we could enjoy a navigator voice with similar indications like a real RALLY navigator (co-driver), obviously much more simplified and reduced to our daily drive capabilities, cars and routes! Something like
"Right 5 over crest, Left 3 don't cut, 100 Right 1 tidy into Left 2, 300, left 2 over kick into right 3 tightens." eheh
It should be more exciting then the stock "turn right, then turn left".6 votes -

Would be great to mark multiple destinations and let the Waze figure out how to start and end journey to save time and travel fastest way.

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.

SVP remettre la voix qui nous donne les noms de rues ( au lieu de la voix Ado ou Enfants ). La conduite n'est pas un amusement !
Arrêter de changer les voix et laisser la voix indiquant le noms ds rues.... sans les voix Ados et enfants. (La conduite n'est pas un amusement !)
Et pouvoir avertir de "la pluie".
