    OPTION TO HIDE ESTIMATED TIME OF ARRIVAL

    It would be nice sometimes to be able to hide the estimated time of arrival.

    Once in while when I am travelling for recreation purposes, I would love to still be able to use Waze in order to have the distance left, the next exit and/or any potential alerts (police, accident, etc.….) except the estimated time of arrival since I don't want to be "stressed" while travelling.

    Note that I don't want to permanently remove the estimated time of arrival but just have an option to hide and unhide as I please.

    Thanks

  2. Allow Local Passes (like current HOV/Toll Passes) for Access to Private Neighborhood Gates & Other Restricted Routes

    Currently waze will avoid these gated routes when routing even though some users may have access. Instead, waze should allow local passes (much like the current HOV and Toll Passes) so users with access can add a local pass in app and the app will then know it can route that user through the restricted gate or road.

    See full example at:

  3. Police

    Pls add Police alert option “Cop on Top”.
    In our country, the police likes to hide on the overhead bridges.
    I used to be able to go back and comment “Cop on Top” or “Cop at Bus Lane” but that feature has been removed ?

  4. A useful improvement:

    if you drive faster than the allowed speed, Waze will beep once, but if you could set Waze to beep continuously until you drive at the allowed speed (slower), then it would be a very, very great app

  5. Destination road type warning (pedestrian street / off-road)

    When to enter the destination warn the driver that the destination is on a private street, off-road, on a pedestrian street, or the road as restrictions.

    To search for a nearby parking place, for example.

  7. Change how ETA works

    Other sugestions ask similar but all forget us, cyclists. The eta is always based on cars, I need it to be adjusted to fit my average speed, not using a data stored in who knows where. I want it to update live based on my speed at a time.

  8. Receive warnings from the Waze app even though there's no specific navigation has been started

    Waze app should provide warnings even though there's no specific navigation has been stared. One use case is driving in the hometown where no navigation is needed but warnings desired (e.g for the speed cameras)

  9. Add customize issue reporting button onto android auto or CarPlay interface

    Allow users to customize addition of one frequently used “reporting issue” button to the android auto or CarPlay interface. Too many steps just to report a road hazard for example and that means eyes off the road, increasing risk factor for users.

  10. Podrian ampliar la distancia de aviso de policía cuando viajas en autopista o tener la opción de configurar distancia ya que 500m es poco

    Cuando vas en autopista sería ideal que la policía la alerte antes, es decir 2 kilómetros antes ya que un radar de medición de velocidad actua a esa distancia. Poder definir a cuantos metros quiero que me alerte la policía o que en autopista automaticamente lo alerte a más distancia

  12. battery saver alert

    When using the battery saver, alerts don't show visually (e.g. railway crossings, police, etc.). You do get the audio alert but the visual one would be much more useful.

  13. Waze suggestion box

    Je viens de découvrir qu'il existait Waze suggestion box alors que j'utilise Waze depuis des années.

    A la lecture des différentes suggestions et commentaires on peut voir qu'il y a très peu de Français actifs.
    Ne pourriez vous pas ajouter à l'application Waze un onglet ou il lien vers Waze suggestion box ?

  14. Prevent Stuck Trucks at RR Crossings

    Hundreds of trucks crossing high ramp crossings get stuck each year. A warning for high-risk crossings sent to truck drivers would reduce accidents and fatalities.

  15. audible tone no longer speeding

    I really like the tone for when you go over the speed limit. Can you add a tone for when you are no longer speeding? Or have a user select repeat of the speeding tone?

  16. “Missed my turn” Button

    Have a button that you can hit if you miss your turn/exit, so that the system automatically starts re-calculating the route. Sometimes it take a while for it to realize you missed (maybe the roads run near each other for a bit), and by the time it realizes, you may miss your next fastest opportunity.

  20. have a "slow vehicle" type with a CUSTOM TOP SPEED

    I drive antique vehicles which are often slow but i don't mind driving on highways so dont want to check "avoid freeways", i would just like that the navigtion algorythm takes my top speed (50mph for one car 65 for the other one) into account when calculating the route.
    this could be set in the "type of vehicles" menu, select "special" and have a customizable "top speed".
    then, even on a 80mph road, waze would only consider i'll make 50 and maybe reroute me on a shorter path !

    If you want to go further you could even set a…
