Tasker is a automation system for Android based on profiles that contains states and actions.

For instance when Tasker sees the bluetooth in my car it begins to reject most calls, reads texts aloud me, and sends a automated reply. Currently that reply just says I will get back to them when I reach my destination. Waze knows that destination and my ETA. I would like to send that in the automated texts. I would also like for Tasker to be able to tell Waze a destination. Using this info it would also be possible for Tasker to do events if the ETA changes due to traffic, like send a text to my wife telling her my new ETA for coming home from work.

You could also have a event passed to Tasker like "Arrived at destination" and then have actions based on that.

TL;DR It would be extremely helpful, if Waze could continuously record and store video from front facing camera.

Me and many of my friends would install a car video recorder. Main functionality is to continuously record anything that happens in front of your car, storing last few hours of recorded material.

There could be many uses for this. Mainly - helping in crashes, where you are not guilty, but you cannot prove that.

Functionality could be minimum. An option to enable or disable continuous recording through road facing camera. Setting, which indicates - how many minutes or hours of recording to keep. Easy way to extract data via iTunes. Video can be split in smaller chunks (10min max), and work like FIFO queue - when recording next 10 minutes, oldest 10 minutes chunk is removed from device.

Solution may not be trivial, but result would be greatly appreciated by many of fellow wazers.

And, yes, I know that this is not a 'quick fix' type of suggestion.

Please add an option to see either a birds-eye overview or a turn-by-turn list (or both?) of the route Waze is taking me on.

Sometimes I *know* I want to avoid a particular road. So when Waze plots a route for me at the start, I can review the proposed alternate routes and choose one. But if I need to deviate from that route to make a side errand maybe, Waze will recalculate my route on the fly, going back to its #1 preferred route. If I'm not paying close attention, this sends me back over to the road I wanted to avoid in the first place! It's hard to tell early on in a route whether Waze found a good alternate for me or if it's sending me to the toll road yet again, for example. Being able to see an overview of the entire route would allow me decide whether I should follow the navigation guidance or not.

It has been noticed before that the Waze-community is divided between editors and drivers; editors being the users that earn most of their points by editing, drivers are those that earn most of their points behind the steeringwheel.

Currently, the scoreboard seems to be dominated by drivers - the topnotch of these are probably truckers, spending their live on the road, driving maybe thousands km per week, making up to 20.000 pts. There is nothing wrong with that, we NEED drivers, and I do not want to suggest that they do not earn their points.

But for editors these are hard times... you can spend, concentrated, hours per day doing all your good work for the Waze-community and still find you are outsmarted by someone who is earning his points as a sideeffect of the job he is doing - not a chance to win there, ever, because the scoreboard only shows the total of points gained by driving AND editing.

It could be an incentive for editors if there were a league for editors - that is, a scoreboard for the points gained by editing. That would make it possible to compare your editingefforts with those of other editors, rather than guessing where other users points come from.

I guess it also works the other way around, if drivers had their own scoreboard, they could compare to drivers.

And, come to think of it, there are also some points that can be gained in maintaining the forum. We could have a third league for that, too.

And ofcourse the current league should not be changed - an overall scoreboard like we have it now could still be justified.

To make competition even more fair, there could exist different leagues for countries WITH and WITHOUT a basemap, as a basemap changes the rules of the game completely.
