New "Recent Locations" Screen
New feature with "Recent Locations" is of no value to me. The recent locations were already on your landing screen. There was no need to create this extra navigation step. I now have to take the extra step of navigating away from it and go to the old screen to type in an address. The extra step is time consuming as I use the app quite a bit, slows my day. Less is more folks, this is 2021, simple and quick was working well. Would be great if you can add an option to revert back to the old landing…

Avoid parkways or truck route option
Does Waze offer an option for Truck Routes? I travel frequently on Long Island, NY and I have a cargo trailer on my SUV... Waze directs me onto parkways and I can't take parkways with the trailer.
Also, it would be wonderful if, when approaching your destination, Waze would tell you if it was on the right or left side of the street.31 votes -
What about allowing the users to REALLY contact you? I have a problem and the "Help page" does not help at all.

add friend by username
I would like to add friends by their waze username. As a long time adapter of waze, I always found it odd that I couldn't add friends by username. WIth social media being so open, there are still users who feel waze does not need to know their phone number and shares the drive just fine through email and text messages. It is unfair to only allow people to connect by giving up personal information or using social media. A person's location is private information and should be allowed a more private way to share it if needed.

Sort searches by smallest deviation from the route
When I create a route and then try to search a place (within the categories), the list shows the closest places, but it doesn't mean the smallest deviation from the original route. The results should be sorted by smallest deviation or by smallest increase on ETA.

Support ODB bluetooth dongles
Allow the use of an ODB bluetooth dongle to get a number of improvements. These dongles are quite cheap and provide a wealth of extra data. Possible uses:
[ Better dead reckoning using vehicle speed ]
Using the actual vehicle speed combined with compass, accelerometer and map matching it should be possible to have accurate positioning in tunnels/urban canyons. TomTom does this and is able to do near-perfect positioning with only one GPS datapoint every 30 minutes.[ Monitor fuel usage ]
Things like planning a gas stop could be automated. When the tank gets below a certain…31 votes -
Personal statistics
Would be nice to get stats about your personal routes : average travel time between your first 2 or 3 destinations, average waze error on ETA (accuracy and precision - see wikipedia for the difference), time you spend driving per day, number of wazers you cross... one can invent all sort of fun and useful statistics.
31 votesWe plan to work on having a personal statistics of the routes taken in the near future. In the meantime, make sure you’ve got the latest version of Waze for all the latest features.

Routing server timeouts - retry in the background
Sometimes everyone of us experiences routing server timeouts with an Oops/OK prompt. Then one needs to reclick the destination while driving, which is disturbing. Perhaps the client could have an option to retry a couple of times in the background, and then notify if all retries failed?

Set Waze as default iOS navigation app [iOS 18.4/EU only]
In the EU, Apple has finally made it possible to set a default navigation app in iOS 18.4.
Unfortunately, Waze has not yet implemented this feature.
You can find the new option in iOS 18.4 under Settings -> Apps -> Default apps -> Navigation
This is what it looks like: https://ibb.co/wNHBspGN
It would be really great to finally have the option on iOS to open addresses directly without having to copy and paste them manually into Waze, for example.

Truck routes
Waze dev team,
Please consider an option for drivers (Waze users) to enter in their vehicle height so that Waze can provide them with suitable routes, avoiding routes with low bridges/clearance?
This would be applicable for truck drivers, tradespeople with work vans and work equipment on roof as well as casual drivers with trailers.
Reason for this is to avoid the frequent low bridge collisions or congestion due to truck having to back out of road.
In Australia, prior to GPS maps such as Waze or Google Maps, we used to have truck edition of paper maps or map books…

More integration with Apple CarPlay
Will Waze ever have similar functionality, such as Apple Maps that more fully integrates in with Apple CarPlay, including the heads up display and the dashboard in addition to the navigation screen? I have a BMW and apples map capability, seamlessly integrates into the heads up display and the dash in addition to the NAV screen, and it would be great if Waze went through the same thing.
