select trailer or caravan
Driving through 6 different countries from Netherlands to Italy with my trailer. You sometimes forget what the legal speed limits are in each country. It would be great to be able to select a car-trailer combination. also because the travel time is very different if you compair this with a single car.

RV routes
I use Waze vigorously, however, in the summer of vacation time we adventure out in our RV. It would be helpful to have routes provided by selecting the vehicle type as an RV, and using roads specifically safe for an RV/18 wheeler truck.
These vehicles are not designed for small narrow roads, and would need to have the safest route provided possible.
Is it possible that we can have better options for the vehicle type, and this way Waze can make a suggested route specifically for said vehicle type? I honestly believe this would increase the amount of users for Waze. ****, I would pay for having access to these additional features as it benefits our travel time, it can provide a safer route for everyone all around.

Better navigation - height width weight
Please add three values to segments, maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight. All segments should default to 0.
Please add user settings of maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight. They should default to 0. The label should direct the user to enter their height/width in metres and weight in tonnes.
When reviewing a navigation route, check if there is a value of maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight exceeding 0. If there is a value, cross-check the users maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight is lower.
If the users value is higher than the segment value, disregard that segment as a navigation option.
This would help users of a wide range of vehicles, from large SUVs to vans to trucks to buses to help them not receive navigation along routes with low bridges, forced height restrictions, narrow roads, forced width restrictions, weak bridges, no truck zones... it would even be possible for a driver of a nervous disposition to avoid that low bridge that makes them feel uneasy, or poor quality drivers avoid the width restrictions they may not be able to navigate well.
At this moment, such drivers get routes that they cannot or will not take, and deters the usefulness of the routes suggested by Waze. By having this option, users have the choice of not being navigated along roads that don't meet their requirements.
There are a LOT of similar requests on uservoice, but none have progressed to consideration of being included which appears to be a major missed opportunity, particularly since a lot of users are delivery drivers in vans, families in RVs, large SUV drivers, all of which are being provided with inappropriate navigation suggestions.

Enable full control in the app using voice only
Add an option to interact with the app using voice control
for instance :
reporting an obstacle on the road using Siri/Google assistant,
rerouting to a new destination while driving,
share your location using a voice command.
All these options should prevent the user from touching the phone while driving and decrease distractions.
The convenience of using the app while talking only will increase the amount of users reporting , and interacting with the many options given in the app.
This will lead to more credible information to be provided for the users.11 votes -

Speed camera audible alert issue
I'm not sure if this is the same for all or just an issue with my install but it would be good to have an audible alert for every speed camera that I pass on a journey because at present the only audible alert I get is for the first camera I pass, there after, all additional cameras only show up as a visual alert.

Alerta de lombadas
O waze poderia alertas de lombadas, no brasil o poder público deveria cuidar das sinalizações mas não o faz, os alertas podem ser construídos como os radares

Persistence of Pothole Reports
Potholes persist until repaired. Pothole reports should persist until consistent replies with “not there”. If the majority of people are confirming, then allow the pothole report to persist (edited from “until someone reports “not there”)

Show search results on map
Waze search results are objectively inferior both in app and on android auto/carplay as compared to other popular navigation apps such as gmaps or apple maps.
Both of those apps display search results on a map view, with A, B, C etc pins with a selectable list on the side, and this works in app and on the in car head unit display. Google Maps also has a MUCH cleaner "add a stop" workflow.
This is a critical and basic feature gap that makes competing map applications much easier to use for searching11 votes -

Creating option in settings to 'Allow U-turns when available'
Currently in the UK, the Waze app will not suggest a u-turn when it is legal and available, and instead it will reroute you in big, difficult, time-wasting loops. It usually happens when you make a wrong turn or are in a rural area. A simple U-turn can save lots of time and frustration but Waze suggests 10+ minute detours instead. Very frustrating and something the user should have power over, given that the country (The UK in this case) allows u-turns on its roads except when specifically prohibited.
11 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

option apprenti conducteur
Bonjour Waze,
Pourrait-il y avoir une option « apprenti conducteur » sur votre application ? Elle permettrait d’avoir un temps estimé plus juste sur les itinéraires où les automobilistes débutants doivent rouler à 110km au lieu de 130 sur autoroute.
Merci !11 votes -
speed camera
You used to let us report Police -> Speed camera. For temporary speed cameras. Now we can only report police/visible or police/hidden. Not all speed cameras are permanent map features. Please reinstate this feature.

Remove submenus from report “hazard” in CarPlay/AA.
To report road works, or a stopped car you need to click report then select hazard, then select 1 of 3 submenus and then select the hazard inside the submenu, I think this is unnecessary, since there is enough space in the CarPlay main report menu to separate the “hazard” button into 3 separate icons, each corresponding to one of the previous submenus, this wold eliminate an entire step in the reporting process, making it safer, and therefore more people wold use it.

Configurable Speedometer & Speed Limit location
Before I go ahead and suggest improvements, Waze is a great navigation app with excellent features. I love it! Great work, Waze team; keep it up!! 👏
I suggest introducing a feature where Waze app users can configure the location of the speedometer and speed limit information through the Waze app preferences to be positioned in one of four display corners. I have noticed reports of inconsistent placement across different platforms; some Waze apps display this information on the left, while others display it on the right. To set the context, the suggestion is based on using the Waze iOS app version 4.92, where the speedometer and speed information are in a fixed position in the lower left corner (when in landscape mode/when the mobile phone is tilted horizontally).
Before proceeding, we must always rely on the car's speedometer and the actual road signs! This suggestion is to improve the current in-app experience for Waze users who find that the speedometer and speed limit information are farther away from the steering wheel.
The lack of regulations in this field introduces an overlooked driving hazard. When the speedometer and speed limit information are located in a fixed position further away from the steering wheel, it introduces a driving hazard as the driver has to spend more time navigating the information on the Waze app navigation screen. I am confident that this is an overlooked feature because most Waze users are drivers in countries that drive on the right side of the road; thus, the steering wheel is located on the left side, which is closer to the speedometer on the Waze app navigation screen.
The problem arises when the speedometer and speed limit information are displayed on the left side of the Waze app navigation screen, while the steering wheel is located on the right side. This placement of the speedometer and speed limit information forces the driver to spend more time navigating the information. I would expect more complaints if the speedometer and speed limit information were moved to the bottom right corner and could not be changed.Please, Waze team, let us make driving safer by introducing this overlooked yet crucial feature to improve the Waze navigation app experience. Thank you!
