traffic lights and stop signs
I request this idea a lot but it seems like no one listens and Waze team completely ignores it. We need stop signs and traffic lights on the map. All navigations in the market already has it expect only Waze, I don't know why they don't want do it or difficult to them to do it! I can't understand, these things its really very important for the drivers.

multistop saved routes
Every weekday morning I drop my daughter off at school on my way to work. I set my work address in waze first and then "add a stop" and put in my daughter's school. It would be nice to have an option to set saved route with multiple stops so that I could select it each morning in one step.

Road trip mode
We just drove 3200 km. It'd be nice to have a way to program the length of drive you prefer, with comfort stops (for kids/dogs). A way to program favorite restaurants, gas stations, etc. a connection to wiki info for points of interest or info about towns. A wildlife on highway hazard sticker. Bathroom rating system. How's that?

To stop WAZE from automatically shutting down
Could it be possible to keep WAZE active, until the user closes the app down. Ok here is what WAZE has done for years. You activate waze, put in your route and go. You then minimize Waze. Waze happily stays active if you are on the move. BUT become stuck in traffic, Waze will just shutdown. Could Waze be designed to not shutdown the app if minimised, when you are stuck in traffic. It is so annoying. You won't realise Waze is shutdown unless you look at your phone screen and fire Waze back up again, which well then say…

Stop automatically reading contacts and sending sms messages without express permission.
It is very sleazy to "harvest" or contacts and down then with text messages. You never asked express permission to do this. It should only be something you offer to opt into for specific contacts.
78 votesGreat news! Linking phone contacts as optional is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Waze mode for public bus drivers
Team,
My name is Meital , and I’m a professional bus driver in Israel. I’d like to suggest a new feature that could greatly benefit both new and experienced drivers: a dedicated navigation mode for bus lines.
The idea is to create an option within Waze that allows drivers to select a specific public bus line (e.g., “Line 76 from Ashdod to Bat Yam”) and get step-by-step navigation based on the actual route and stops of that line. The system would include all scheduled stops, expected turns, and route-specific details.
This feature could serve multiple purposes:
• For new…3 votes -
Waze, Android Auto, 2018 Chrysler Pacifica doesn't work
2018 Chrysler Pacifica. Pixel 4xl, pixel 6 Pro, pixel 7 Pro. Waze navigation does not work on Android Auto. It loses GPS connection and stops working. If I go into the phone settings and turn location off, wait a minute and turn it back on, Waze might work for a few seconds and then quits again.

Stop the "how can I help, one more time" feature. PLEASE! Talk to me only when spoken to.
Every time I get out of the car if I forget to turn the app off and put my phone in the pocket pick up a bunch of heavy objects from my car and walk into a store this thing in my pocket continues to ask me "how can I help, one more time." it's driving me out of my mind and I will delete this app unless it stops talking to me on its own.
1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Stop using last direction of travel to determine directions on startup.
Waze should not use the last direction of travel for determining routes. Instead of routing 5 turns to go the opposite direction on a roadway, waze should just say "go east/west/north/south on xx" or just not have any audible direction and send you on the fastest path mid segment.

Your new app is BAD. THE “plan a drive” is buried, there still isn’t an easy way to add a stop. I’ve quit using Waze as my regular map.
Make the app ACCURATE, and easy to use, plan a drive, change starting location, correct lanes to be in.- NO, I can’t “ stay in the HOV lane” , and exit the freeway at the same time!
I can’t be in the leftmost turn lane, and exit right to the freeway!
I’d like it to be easy to use-change start location, add a stop, maybe even help me route a drive- which stop in which order ( start and stop location, with 2-3 stops on the way)1 vote -
Stop changing language when you cross the border
I don't know if it's my phone or waze, but I'm taking a trip around Europe and every time I cross a border the voice commands change language. And it's not even the language of the country, I'm in Italy now and it switched to French. My native tongue is Dutch but I'm from Belgium so I speak a bit of French but it would still be nice just to keep the language I selected.

Add Shortcut to "Vehicle Stopped On Side of Road"
I found a post from 2016 asking for this and it still hasn't been implemented!
There should be a shortcut on the navigation screen to send a "Vehicle Stopped on Shoulder" report with a single click.
This is, by far, the most common type of report and it currently requires FIVE button presses - all of them while looking down at the screen. A user-configurable single-click report button would be even better, but a "Vehicle Stopped On Shoulder" button would be a massive improvement to the current 5-clicks.
This has been suggested many, many times over the past many years,…

Have a way to report speed traps or towns with overzealous police
Some towns are notorious for way overzealous police. It might be good to have a way of reporting that. Today, the first of the month, so no cops rushing to ticket their quota, we saw constant stops in the town of Westover, UT for picayune reasons. Maybe the cops have nothing better to do but it really seemed like overkill.

Zoom level resets after waze shows alerts while stopped
If I'm driving and set my zoom at a certain level and stop, waze shows nearby alerts... great! But when I drive again my zoom level is not what I've set it at. Also, please make the app show the alert on the side of the screen and put the pinpointed alert on the other side while in landscape mode. Sometimes an alert is useless without seeing it and currently the warning covers the map!

Feature Improvement
I have used the Share Drive feature on Waze multiple times. It is a good feature. In my opinion the feature would be improved if it maintained a trip for at least 30 minutes after the traveler stopped. I believe that Waze currently drops the trip after the traveler stops their vehicle. The user has to reset the feature when they resume their trip.

Resuming your current drive
When my current drive was interrupted, waze used to ask if I wanted to resume my current drive whilst showing a progress bar slowly moving. If I didn't respond it would simply resume my drive. This was handy since I didn't have to take my eyes off the road to respond, yes. Now all of a sudden, it doesn't show the progress bar and waits for me to click yes. If I don't respond the current drive now stops and I have to enter my destination again and start a new drive. What changed and can I get the progress…
