Proactive Fuel Station Suggestion
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest adding a feature that proactively recommends nearby gas stations after the user has traveled a certain distance, which can be set by the user.
During long trips, drivers may not always keep track of their fuel level or may forget to refuel in time. This can lead to inconvenient or even risky situations, especially when traveling through areas with limited fuel station availability.
By allowing users to define a distance threshold (e.g., after driving X kilometers), Waze could automatically suggest the nearest gas stations along the route. This would give drivers more control over their journey and help them avoid running out of fuel.
Such a feature would enhance trip planning, improve convenience, and contribute to a more reliable driving experience, particularly on long-distance routes.

Stop intentionally mis-routing
Why, with I search for "costco gasoline" do you intentionally return other gas stations? You sent me to a bad part of a city I am not familiar with to a gas station that WAS NOT COSTCO!!!
Are you being paid for redirects? Why do you do that? Is it possible for you to stop?2 votesThanks for reaching out.

Would be great if Waze could project your navigation though tunnels when you lose gps.. instead of trying to find your location elsewhere
Would be great if Waze could project your navigation though tunnels when you lose gps.. instead of trying to find your location elsewhere. It knows you entered the tunnel and shown you the exit to the, but when you lose gps signal it can’t find you and you can take wrong exits.. also stating each trip should allow you to choose tolls or not..

Directions and Timing for Bicycle and Walking
It would be amazing if Waze could add directions and timing for bicycles and walking. I was flabbergasted to find these features weren’t in the App when I needed walking directions in NYC, New York, and again when I got lost and was looking for directions while cycling in downtown San Antonio, Texas. I’m always hoping and waiting for these features to be added with each update. Please consider adding walking and cycling to the App.

Waze share the drive with a friend.
Share a drives destination with a friend or friend group, where everyone could see others in their navigation map.
And other friends could ether suggest or set a new destination to everyone. This could be acomplished by setting a user level within the group.
Also would be cool to have option to make these groups multiple and enable or disable them.2 votes -
Route
Hi Team,
I’d like to propose a feature suggestion that could improve safety and routing flexibility for many drivers.
Right now, if users want to include a specific street or road segment on the way to a destination, the only workaround is to add it as a stop/waypoint. This creates a “stop” that the driver must manually confirm has been reached before continuing navigation. In real driving scenarios, having to interact with the phone to confirm an intermediate stop especially on busy roads can be unsafe.
What I’m suggesting is a native “Pass Through” or “Via Street” routing option that:
Lets the user specify a street segment or point to pass through on the route
Integrates that requirement into the route calculation without turning it into a separate stop
Continues voice-guided navigation normally without requiring driver interaction to confirm intermediate target points on the wayBenefits of this feature include:
Increased safety by reducing in-app confirmation taps while driving
Greater route control for users with fixed preferences (like known scenic or safer roads)
More predictable navigation experience for routes that include desired intermediate pathsThank you for considering this suggestion. I’d be happy to provide further details or examples if needed.
Best regards,

Keep Navigation Active After Arrival
I would like to suggest a feature that allows users to keep navigation active even after reaching the destination. In many situations, especially when it is difficult to find parking, drivers need to circle the surrounding area. When Waze automatically ends navigation upon arrival, it becomes harder to maintain orientation and understand nearby traffic conditions. Allowing navigation to remain active until the user chooses to stop it would provide better spatial awareness, improve safety, and offer a more flexible experience in real-world scenarios.

pedestrian crossings & unmarked intersections
Hi Waze,
I live in Romania and I have two suggestions for you. I will mention them below in order of importance, as I believe they could save many lives and help prevent accidents.
1 - In Romania, unfortunately, there are many pedestrian crossings on national and county roads where traffic is heavy. Many of them are not even properly marked or illuminated. Could you create an option that allows us to map pedestrian crossings on the road?
2 - There are also many dangerous, unmarked intersections in Romania, especially in rural areas and not only there. Could you also create an option to report dangerous intersections?

התראה על קבר צדיק בקרבת מקום (פיצ’ר אופציונלי)
שלום צוות Waze,
שמי אהרון בן אייש, אני בן 24, סיימתי את שירותי במג״ב, ואני משתמש באפליקציית Waze כמעט כל יום.
יש לי רעיון לפיצ’ר שיכול לעניין הרבה משתמשים, במיוחד בישראל ובעולם היהודי.הרעיון הוא להוסיף אפשרות התראה אופציונלית שתודיע לנהג כאשר הוא עובר בקרבת מקום של קבר צדיק או אתר רוחני חשוב.
האפליקציה תוכל לשלוח התראה קטנה, שתאפשר למשתמש לבחור אם הוא רוצה לעצור או לקבל ניווט למקום כדי להתפלל או להשתטח.כמובן שהאפשרות תהיה אופציונלית בלבד, ותכובד בחירתו של כל משתמש אם להפעיל או לבטל אותה.
לדעתי, הרעיון הזה מתאים מאוד לרוח של Waze, שנולדה כאן בישראל, ויכול להוסיף נגיעה תרבותית ורוחנית יפה לאפליקציה.
תודה על ההקשבה ועל כל מה שאתם עושים כדי לשפר את חוויית הנהיגה שלנו.
בברכה,

Use phone orientation to determine initial driving direction
Problem:
When starting navigation from a stationary position, Waze often assumes my car is facing the direction of the road segment, not my actual heading.
This leads to wrong initial instructions — for example, being told to “turn right” when in reality I need to make a U-turn first because I’m facing the opposite direction.Proposed Solution:
Use the phone’s built-in compass and orientation sensors to estimate the initial heading of the vehicle when navigation begins.
In most real-world cases, the phone is positioned facing the same direction as the car (mounted on the dashboard or windshield).
By using this heading information, Waze could:Determine the correct driving direction before movement begins.
Avoid confusing or incorrect first instructions.
Make navigation smoother and more intuitive, especially in parking lots or side streets.
