Color Coding for "Traffic" Reports Indication
To Use different Color Codes for :
"Moderate" - "Yellow" Color
"Heavy" - "Orange" Color
"Standstill" - "Red" ColorThis will indirectly help us to minimize our attention to the Screen without touch the Icon for Status of that Traffic in that location. It is good to Ease of Reference as Currently, I need to Press on that Icon Everything while on the move which is quite dangerous sometimes.

Additional reporting options.
Two immediately spring to mind:
1. when reporting a weather hazard, it would be great to be able to report "sunstrike".
2. the only way to report a stopped car is as an object on the side of the road. The only hazards on the road are things like construction. I have had multiple occassions where I have come across a vehicle stopped on the road. These have not been an accident, rather they have been due to breakdown. An option in the "on road/in lane" category to advise of a stopped vehicle would be great.I love the app though. I use it all the time, and it works fantastically. Thank you.

Live traffic information from Government and Community sources
Some countries, states and governments provide an official traffic information feed that can be viewed by the community.
The RTA (Roads and Traffic Authority) in Australia provides information in a news feed based on area, that are contributed to by the RTA, police, fire, ambulance, state emergency services, and the community in general.
Im not sure of other countries setups, but it would be nice to implement some already available sources of official traffic conditions that could be viewed in waze and notfy the users of the problems.
The RTA information page about the system is here
http://livetraffic.rta.nsw.gov.au/desktop.html#aboutIt i just an rss feed you can subscribe to... eg
http://livetraffic.rta.nsw.gov.au/traffic/rss/reg-north.atomSeeing as in the feed the reported problems have locations, maybe waze could use the feed based on the location name, and anyone traveling to that area will be notified.
Or perhaps there is a better way to implement it that i dont know of, but the information provided is very useful.

. Add a feature to log the miles traveled
Add a feature to log the miles traveled using this great program.
Add the ability to save it to a, comma separated values file on the sd card . This would be very helpful for sales people in tracking miles for tax purposes . Start point and endpoint would be very useful for tax purposes17 votes -
Hide bottom toolbar on iPhone
The toolbar on the bottom (drive to, report etc.) should be hidden when in navigation mode to help use up the entire iPhone screen. On screen tap the toolbar can pop back up to access these tools. I just don't think the iPhone screen is large enough to keep that toolbar there at all times. Maybe a setting could enable this auto-hide feature while some people may like it to be shown all the time.

Animal Alert on the Road
Good morning,
I would like to make a suggestion: in Portugal there are many abandoned animals that walk on the road, which is a danger for them and causes many accidents.
I would like there to be an "animal on the road" warning to warn drivers of the danger.
Thank you very much for your excellent work.16 votes -
Signaler animal errant ou animal mort / Animal on road or roadkill
Bonjour,
Il faudrait remettre le bouton animal décédé sur la route
et ajouter animal errant, j'ai plus d'une fois voulu l'indiquer sur la carte mais cela n'existe pas !! et éviterait beaucoup d'accidents et d'animaux tués !The roadkill button should be put back on the map,
and add "stray animal", more than once I wanted to indicate it on the map but it doesn't exist!! and would avoid many accidents and animal deaths!16 votes -
Use Traffic Light as Reference to Turn
Tell users where to make a turn such as "at the light" or "the next light" like Apple Maps. This is better than suggesting to turn in # of miles.

Mandalorian
Please, please, please let's have a Mandalorian voice on Waze, saying "this is the way" or "follow the way", with occasional gurgles from Grogu (baby Yoda). You know it makes sense...

Add voice message to Update Request to reduce time reporting map errors to car drivers.
Currently there is only text comment option which restricts the driver from adding details to the UR. Adding voice message could help to waze editor getting more specific information and minimize message asking additional information.
This functionality improve URs resolution statistics.

Big "stop Waze" button
Sometimes (often) you just want to stop and close Waze. But you have to go through menus, which is DANGEROUS while driving. There should be a big readily-visible X on the main navigation screen. Or alternatively, a big readily-visible MUTE button.

Add lane icons near the car collision icon
Hello waze! It occurred to me that they put an icon next to a car crash, some arrow that has 3 points. Left, center or right, because I see that many people always ask what lane the collision is in. They say that in the CHAT, that is, the messages, apart from saying negative things.... then... allow those who put car crash icons to also put IN WHICH LANE the accident is, so that the people who see it, you don't have to log in to see the messages. thx a lot, bye!

Disable this feature (with Police exposing) for Ukraine immediately
Dear Waze.
My name is Mykhailo. and i'm a QA lead from Ukraine in a similar product as you.
I've been using your app for years, which I'm thankful for.Today, in this dark age, our country use your app to get away from hot spots to west.
Although , the feature that expose Police spots helps russian's separatists escape.
PLEASE I'm begging you to disable (at least temporary) this feature (with Police exposing) for Ukraine immediately .16 votes -
Have a policy against hate-speech on editor community discord
A number of Northeast Editors including leadership have the caption "Let's Go Brandon" as their Discord status. The Waze community is not the place for these extremists who would use the platform to spew vile comments about the President of the United States. It should be a place where all are made to feel welcome. These individuals should certainly not have community leadership roles.
