Add new saved place
Adding new saved place works horribly. This feature should be available on long tap, as context menu. Now one has to search place by name, but guess what, not all places are available by name.Google maps implements this feature very nicely. Saved places should by displayable on the map. As a general idea, the UI looks very crippled compare to Google maps.

Location services
Under Locations in our phones Waze has to be set to Always or Never while apps such as Maps and Lyft has the choices of Never or While Using. I think waze should also only use or location services while we are using the app. We don't need Waze to be tracking our location and wasting our battery every second of the day but only while we are using the app. This can obviously be made possible. If Maps and Lyft allows us this common sense option, then Waze should too.

This is exactly why I am going back to Google Maps
Why have points? Is there any good reason? Do you get a prize? If it's just for show, I don't have time for games. I would rather use Google Maps, when I can't understand why I am getting points. And it serves no purpose. There are already so many overload where what people create serves no purpose and is useless.
It's a great app, but some of us are too grown to care about points. If I get points at a store or movie theater, there is an incentive. There's no with WAZE. And that's too bad.

Zoom function on ETA accepted maps
Provide zoom function to permit ETA recipient the option to keep the map zoom setting at a specific level. The map continues to default to the most local level, making it difficult to find the ETA sender on the map.

“Interacción por voz en tiempo real + personalización + modo offline seguro”
Propongo que el usuario pueda interactuar con la app durante la navegación mediante comandos de voz en tiempo real. Por ejemplo: indicar errores de ruta, pedir recalcular, silenciar, cambiar el tipo de aviso (“avisame solo si me desvío”, “aviso por vibración”, etc.).
Esto permitiría personalizar la experiencia sin tocar el celular, algo clave para quienes no tienen vehículos inteligentes ni soportes para el teléfono.
También propongo agregar un modo offline seguro, que descargue y mantenga disponible el mapa completo de la zona automáticamente (sin requerir activación manual), para evitar desvíos peligrosos en zonas sin señal. Una vez me enviaron por…

In Israeli maps, there is only an option to avoid A and B roads. I suggest adding C roads as well, as they are less safe and can be danger
In Israeli maps, there is only an option to avoid A and B roads. I also suggest adding C roads, as they are less safe and can be dangerous.
At least give the driver a warning ⚠️ whenever the route is passing through the C roades3 votes -
Add Waze as a CarPlay
I prefer Waze but I’m forced to use Maps as my navigator because Waze is not a CarPlay app.
7 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, Waze is already supported on CarPlay. Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

Android Samsung galaxy note 3 multi window feature.
Would love to use it with other apps. This limits me to only use one app. With Google maps I can listen to YouTube or a music app while I see and hear directions. Thanks.

Automatically route
Automatically route address based on voice input like Google maps.
I am tired of saying navigating to a particular address and then Waze forces me to select and confirm after clearly specifying where I would like to go.
Can you please make it like Google Maps where you say it once and it takes you there.

Similar ETA
Google maps will show you routes with a similar ETA right on the map. It would be great if Waze showed this too.

Waze on Android Auto drains battery even when charging unlike Google Maps
Device: Samsung Galaxy S23 FE
Android version: 15, One UI 7.0
Waze version: 5.10.0.2
Car setup: Android Auto, 15W fast chargingIssue:
When using Waze with Android Auto and YouTube Music, my phone battery drains even while connected to fast charging (15W charging is displayed).When I switch to Google Maps under the exact same setup, my phone charges normally and the battery level increases as expected.
This suggests that Waze is consuming more power than necessary on Android Auto. Please investigate and optimize Waze performance/battery efficiency for this scenario.

Night mode issue
Previously with CarPlay set to Dark mode (which I think makes it easier to see CarPlay functions), Waze when set to “Auto” showed daytime maps when light outside and night versions of maps when dark out (at night or in a garage). Lately, Waze only shows night versions of maps unless CarPlay is set to light mode. I have always had CarPlay on dark mode and this was not an issue. Also note that both Apple Maps and Google Maps show daytime versions of their maps when it is daylight outside even with CarPlay on dark mode, just as Waze…
