  1. Add option to report temporary no turns allowed during events.

    During major events the cops tend to block turning onto other roads. Those other Roads are not closed so I can't report them closed but the cops do not let you turn and waze doesn't know so I end up going in circles while using waze.

  2. To add the Number Coding Scheme here in Metro Manila Philippines.

    Please add the number coding scheme option for your users in Metro Manila Philippines. This will help users to fully optimize the use of their vehicles during "coding day." This will also help users avoid purchasing second or multiple cars to avoid the coding. The volume of cars here does not match the capacity of our roads.

  3. Incorporate a simple view. With speed, distance to next turn and direction of next turn.

    When driving at night, all I need to know is my speed, distance to the next turn and direction to turn.
    (ETA would of course be nice to see with smaller text.)
    I use Hudway Trip for that, but I really prefer WAZE.

  4. Alessandra's voice (Portuguese (BR))

    I'm very upset because Alessandra's voice, from Portuguese (BR), is no longer available. There's no complete address in this new version.

  5. Need to add a distinction between normal toll roads and premium priced toll roads. Ex In Northern Virginia , the toll way vs Greenway

    In northern Virginia, we have a standard toll road (toll way 267) and a Greenway that goes into Loudoun County. The Greenway is an extremely high priced premium toll (min of $4.45) vs the regular toll way of $ 1 go $ 2. Since I and many others refuse to take the abusively priced Greenway but need the regular toll way for a portion of our route, we need another option other than toll or no toll. such as avoid premium toll?

  6. boutons pour confirmer un danger

    Pour confirmer la présence d'un danger, ou pour dire qu'il n'y est plus, les deux boutons sont petits et proche l'un de l'autre. En conduisant, c'est pas toujours évident d'appuyer sur le bon.
    L'idéal sera de séparer l'écran en deux à ce moment. En appuyant n'importe où à droite on confirmerai la présence d'un danger et en appuyant n'importe où à gauche on dirai qu'il n'est plus présent... on gagnerai en rapidité et surtout en sécurité.

  8. Allow push notifications for people surrounding a temporary road closure to know about temporary parking violations and planned road closure

    For someone like me that only checks my mail 1-2 times a week, receiving a paper notification of a road closure or temporary parking violations may not always work.

  9. 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".

  10. Recalulate Route Button / Bird's Eye Route / I'm On This Route Button

    Seems like there are lots of these that get one or two votes and die the way of the dodo just like I will assume this suggestion will do. Although the idea behind Waze is social-traffic guidance it doesn't do the commuter a lot of good when they are in route on a multi-lane interstate in the middle of rush hour(s).

    We all give permission for Google/Waze/everyone to know our location so use that information to know that we are on the route and recalculate the traffic speeds based on our movement and feedback on our phones.

    Give us the…

  11. automatic accident

    If your car comes to a sudden halt or veers off course dramatically and unexpectedly, have waze pop up with a message asking if you have been in a accident. The message must stay for 5 seconds, and if you do not cancel it or press the "NO" button, it automatically alerts a nominated friend and sends them the last known location

  13. The salesman algorithm

    you enter than one more destination , then waze find the shortest path between all these destinations , exactly such as the salesman algorithm , this will be useful for many companies such as fedex , salesman , and other people that use this daily such as going to bank,post,supermarket so it finds for you the shortest path.

  14. No shutdown when screen off

    Hello,

    I read that waze automaticatly shutdown itselves if it detects it is used in background

    However this could be helpfull if we can set "on" or "off" this option. For exemple, with my phone I prefer to shutdown the screen to save the battery (I toggle the screen on when I want to see or inform about something) . But by this way waze shutdown itself

    May it be possible to make it as an option in a futher version ?

    Yours sincerely

  15. Use a friends live gps signal as destination

    You can Share you Destination with a Friend if you connect by Facebook.

    But what if you want to see where he stopped, like a gas station or something. or he decides to drive somewhere different.

    It would be nice to choose your friend as a destination so when the friends phone updates its location that is the new destination for yourself. This idea needs refining i guess. But basically so you can follow your friend if you drive together, to not lose the other one! or the group!

  16. Choose time of reports before calculates the route

    The ability to choose what old time has to be a report to be considered in my route. For example, if anyone has reported that last hour was traffic on a road, it is not said that there is even now, indeed probably there is not traffic now and so it is not necessary to calculate an alternate route. So it would be useful to have a possibility to set a parameter that filters on what must be a recent report so to be considered eg. in the last 30 minutes, in the last 15 minutes.

  19. Horse-riding

    It would be great if you could mark yourself as a slow-moving hazard for other Wazers to be alerted to on their screens as they drive.

    Imagine you are riding a horse on a narrow country lane. Considerate drivers slow right down when passing riders on horseback to avoid spooking the horses.

    If you could declare yourself a rider on horseback, and had your phone with you then other Waze users could be alerted to your presence well before rounding the very last corner and needing to brake suddenly.

    This could reduce accidents between horses and cars.

  20. Waze maps to closest street instead of named street

    I have noticed a few times lately that Waze seems to map the directions to the closest street to the gps point of the address, which is not always the same as the street the address is on. This means, for instance, that where there are houses which are set back from the street, Waze often maps to a neighboring street instead of the correct street, because it's closer to the marker.

    In one residential neighborhood with houses set back from the street, one address is mapped to a nearby condo complex behind the house. Another house is mapped to…
