  1. Display phone contacts while navigating

    Display the phon's contacts on the map while driving. As a sales rep i'm on the road all the time, often driving large distances for 1 or 2 clients, it then would be usefull to see which other contacts/customers are nearby my destination or route.

  2. Filter search results by whether a business is open

    Google Maps allows filtering of search results by whether the business is open or not; Waze should have feature parity.

  4. Alert events pop up is too big in new version

    The alert events pop up in new waze version is too big if you are using the landscape mode. This is making hard to see the map in front of you.

    Balloon pop up of older version in right corner was much better.

  8. Recurso para forçar o programa a reconhecer que você mudou de via expressa pra local ou vice-versa (o gps às vezes nao percebe)

    Poderia ser adicionado um recurso para forçar o programa a reconhecer que você mudou de uma via expressa pra uma local ou vice-versa (o gps nao percebe que você mudou, pois sao poucos metros que as separam). Por exemplo, nas Marginais às vezes o trânsito piora repentinamente e você percebe que é melhor mudar de via, embora o waze insista que você permaneça na via atual. E quando você muda, ele não consegue perceber que você mudou, e desta forma não recalcula a rota. Penso em um botão do tipo "mudei de via" e setas para a esquerda ou direita.…

  9. Erase the path behind you.

    When in a route, sometimes the path behind you get mixed with the path you are following. The path behind you should not be marked or it should be erased as you drive.

  10. prevent fake police control alert by comparing standstill postion of the wazer and a police control

    Some police agent use waze account to create fake alerts randomly or to say "control not here anymore" when they are doing control. These wazers can be identified by the system simply.
    If a police agent uses waze, his location is tracked by the server. If a police agent is using waze while doing a control, his position will be standstill until a normal wazer spot him. So there will be an alert at the place the police control is located. The waze server can record these habits and conclude the user is a cop and limit his actions.

  11. Add a random voice option to keep things interesting on long trips

    On long trips, the same voice and sayings get old pretty quick. By adding a random voice option, it would be fun to hear what the next voice and saying is each time

  12. Red tint on the side that traffic is slow

    The red/yellow line is thin and gets obscured by the purple nav line.

    See also http://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-waze-suggestion-box/suggestions/1809381-purple-route-line-hides-traffic

    In addition to the current line, I suggest a wider transparent line in red/yellow tint. The wider line should be drawn alongside the road, rather than exactly on it. The line should be on the side that the traffic is on.

    In addition to the obscuring problem, the little moving flow arrows are hard to see when driving, while a broad tint clearly to the side of the road might be clearer.

  14. Colocar a opção de deixar os locais favoritos visíveis no mapa, como é feito com outros wazers.

    Disponibilizar uma opção no menu de configurações, que possibilite a visualização dos locais guardados no favoritos, durante a navegação teremos a visualização dos pontos favoritos, nos aparelhos gps garmin, funciona assim e ajuda bastante.

    While traveling, user should be able to search for a Point of Interest such as "Starbucks" and save it as route POI. the app should display

    While traveling or entering a navigation route, the user should be able to search for a Point of Interest (POI) such as "Starbucks" and save it as route POI. The app should display all "Starbucks" locations on the route with the option to add one or more POIs as a new stop. the POI will remain active until navigation is stopper or user reached destination

  18. Don´t take for the average the motorcycle speed

    In all the countries, are motorcycles drivers using waze, when there´s a lot of traffic, they go faster than the cars, I was thinking that the speed of the motorcycles don´t matter, for this important reason it doesn´t have to upload the speed to the waze servers.

    When we open the app, it could be a question: are you usen a motorcycle? or a car?, or it could be a setting too.

    The information that is upload for the motorcycle drivers are impacting to the ETA of the rest of the drivers!!!!!!!!!

    Caros
    (escrevendo em português) , gostaria de sugerir que adotassem um modulo , CAMINHO SEGURO , digo isto porque este final de semana , mais um homicídio ocorreu por conta de indicação equivocada do GPS no Rio de janeiro , minha sugestão é vocês colocarem as áreas de risco em cores ressaltadas ou melhor que o sistema avisasse se tratar de área de risco e solicitasse a confirmação da rota , estes dados podem ser obtidos das estatísticas dos departamentos de policia ,ou das áreas de abrangência das comunidades mais perigosas e violentas , eu como carioca , NUNCA uso…
