  1. Carpool/HOV lane detection

    Give us the option to comletely disable Carpool/HOV lane detection.

    For two years now the app keeps telling me to leave the carpool lane every 1 to 2 miles, even when I am not in the carpool lane. Please give us an option to completely disable the lane detection so I can enter or exit it whenever I want to.

  2. Speed limit for new drivers

    New drivers are often imposed lower speed limits. The application should help by having the date and country of the driver licence as parameter to compute the new driver period during which these reduced speed limits apply (note that eg in France the new driver period can be reduced to 2 years from 3 by attending a stage during the period so this must also be parameterised).
    Then these reduced speed limits must be used for planification and while driving.

  3. Select initial driving direction

    I wanted to suggest this idea but found it was suggested already six years ago but for some reason, this simple but important feature has not yet been implemented.
    So I’m quoting the original request someone sent in 2018:

    Very often Waze starts up navigation facing the wrong driving direction. The direction is rectified as the vehicle starts moving, but it can be too late for the initial turn.

    Please add the ability to switch driving direction when navigation starts, via a button.

  4. Suggestion for Adding Stop Signs to Waze Map Editor: Enhancing Safety, Traffic Flow, and User Experience

    Dear Waze Development Team,

    I know this feature was denied back in 2022 but I would like to suggest adding this feature again due to how important it is. This feature will allow map editors to include stop signs on the Waze map.

    Here are a few reasons why:
    Enhanced Safety: Drivers will have advanced notice of stop signs, allowing them to prepare to stop safely, which can reduce the risk of accidents at intersections.

    Improved Traffic Flow: Accurate stop sign information helps drivers make better decisions, contributing to smoother traffic movement and less congestion.

    Optimized Route Planning: Knowing where…

  5. Custom Route Colours

    I’ve noticed that if you share your current journey with someone then your route line turns green.

    This made me realise that this is actually much better than purple for me and think this would be a great option for colour blind users.

    Being able to select whatever colour stands out best to you to make your route more clear would be great!

  6. Option to avoid C area roads in Israel

    When I drive in Israel I plan my route in order to avoid crossing a checkpoint and c areas. Sometimes, waze automatically changes my route in order to avoid traffic making me drive in certain areas I’m not willing to. Adding an option to avoid those roads as well as A and B areas can be helpful.

  7. Make it easy to set a different start location

    Make it easy to set a different start location.
    Waze is so clunky and time consuming that I now use maps much more - which I don’t like

  8. Route through road closures

    During last week Verizon had to support the first responders was satellite assets for their communications. We were able to go through road closures. I would like the ability to turn off the reroute around road closures so that the people that can actually go through the road closures can be routed to their destination lot faster because of Waze and other map programs we could not rout ourselves to the locations that we needed to go to, I am Sure that the mini first responders that were at the Ruidoso Fire had the same issue

  9. Select "From and To" plus "Stop Off" on the app/live web map

    To have the opportunity to add a "From" address as opposed to where you currently are. Therefore put an address in where you want to start your trip and then add the destination, and to also add "Stop Off" during the trip and possibly multiple stops like some map alternatives use.

  10. Carburante preferito. Dovreste aggiungere energia elettrica ma anche....

    Se ho una auto elettrica perché mi fate scegliere il carburante preferito? O lo togliete o aggiungete energia elettrica.
    Inoltre vorrei che sul percorso fossero visualizzate le colonnine con grafica diversa a seconda della velocità di ricarica per capire subito se sia o meno quello di cui ho bisogno.
    Infine nei filtri vorrei poter scegliere, ad esempio, solo le colonnine in autostrada, escludendo quelle che mi dicevano fare uscire dal mio percorso

  12. Inserire la possibilità di evitare strade strette a doppio senso

    Purtroppo capita spesso soprattutto in zone periferiche di imbattersi in stradine strette a doppio senso dove magari ci si trova difronte un furgone in salita. Darei la possibilità agli utenti di preferire qualche km in più ma più comodo dal punto di vista della larghezza della carreggiata.

  14. Hazard Listing

    Can you look into prioritizing the hazards into auto sorting the most recent used items, many roads I travel the most used hazard is pothole, this should be top of the list for me. Next would be car on shoulder, construction and traffic lights rarely come up and these are listed first. you could auto sort based on users last selected or have some sort of favs option. perhaps even list the most top 3 reports on the reports screen. This would increase time on the device and safety as we drive and try to report.

  15. Snelheid passend bij het voertyig

    Is er misvhien een mogelijkheid om de maximale toe gestane snelheid van je voertuig in te geven , zodat dit in de navigatie ook mee genomen kan worden, als ik bijvoorbeeld met een vrachtwagen rijd dat ik 80km/h in kan geven bij een auto met aanhanger 90km/h en bijboorbeeld met een tractor 45 km/h. Ik moet namelijk morgen met de caravan boor werk op pad maar nu is het heel lastig inschatten hoelang ik hier over doe.
    Misvhien kunnen jullie hier iets mee.

  17. Rotas para caminhões - informações de fiscalização/restrições/ruas pequenas

    Adicionar rotas personalizadas para caminhões. Há muitos espaços em que caminhões não passsam. Além disso, há avenidas e ruas com restrições. Atualmente nossa empresa utiliza o Waze até certo ponto e nossos motoristas e ajudantes de motoristas têm que ter o olhar atento para não seguir o Waze e acabar entrando em alguma rota que não tem a possibilidade de entrada, ou então se entra na rua/avenida vem a multa com certeza.

    Grande parte do público de vocês é caminhoneiros e empresas. Se precisar, fico a disposição para informar as rodovidas e outros locais em São Paulo e proximidades que…

  19. I recommend Waze can create additional route options that drivers can choose from especially those that have less turns.

    Waze often struggles to cope with the high-density population and the consequent difficulty of navigating through Manhattan, New York's tight turns. When Waze attempts to avoid particularly congested routes, it often leads to more frequent turns, resulting in longer travel times for drivers and potentially increased chances of encountering pedestrians and traffic violations due to more frequent turns. Therefore, I suggest that Waze introduce an option that allows routes with fewer turns, even if it means navigating through worse traffic conditions, to minimize unnecessary turns. Implementing such a strategy would align with the expectations of many drivers.
