  1. Optimization Proposal for Waze – Integration of Support for Buses and Trucks

    To enhance user experience and expand the app’s target audience, it is recommended to add dedicated support for heavy and public vehicles such as buses and trucks. This feature would include the following components:

    1. Customized Driver Profiles – An option to select the type of vehicle: truck, bus, private car, motorcycle, etc.

    2. Tailored Route Planning – Routes would consider height and weight restrictions, specific traffic signs (e.g., "No entry for trucks"), and restricted access zones.

    3. Integration of Dedicated Lanes – For buses: display of bus-only lanes (such as BRT or HOV lanes) and incorporate their availability into route planning.

  2. Inaccurate “Public transportation” Ticket Alerts for motorcycle-only routes

    In Taiwan, many segments and turns (which aren’t public transportation lanes) are restricted to motorcycles only (24/7). However, the system currently assumes they are public transportation lanes by design and shows this pop-up.

    As a result, when navigating through these routes, the app mistakenly shows a ‘Ticket Alert’ with a ‘Public transportation vehicles only’ warning. This causes a lot of confusion for users.

    To improve the user experience, I suggest displaying a specific ‘Motorcycles Only’ warning when approaching routes restricted to motorcycles.

    This would act as a great reminder for users who might have accidentally set their vehicle type to…

  4. OMG - the evac zones and traffic disruptions need to be report. So many people can not travel the 5 freeway right NOW ! HELP

    If people could report the evac zone and restricted traffic on the 5 could of prevented people going to work or drop offs for school. NOW all north bound traffic is stuck.
    PLEASE allow us to give fire and evac notices ... this is a only route for some school and many people use this route for work. A warning would of allowed people to take work off or leave early to avoid the danger and the closure....

  5. Vehicle type restricred highway alert

    PLEASE...When a route includes a restricted road, like the Merritt Parkway, pop up a flash screen that advises no trucks busses or trailers are permitted on the roadway and require acknowledgement. Illegal vehicles are being routed into these road because users either don't care or don't know how to set up their waze.

  6. Update SF Directions ASAP

    Please update some of your SF directions ASAP. As a passenger in Lyft or Uber, I can tell you that Polk Street has not been updated with all of the new turning restrictions that were put in over 6 months ago. Also, one of the main thoroughfares, Market Street, will no longer be available to cars as of next Wednesday, 1/29.

  7. About night toll road

    About night toll road

    It's a toll road in the daytime, but isn't there a free road at night?  
    In the current Waze editor settings, if it is set to a toll road, it is currently not possible to make the drive free for the specified time by adding restrictions.

    I want you to change the setting to make it free at night even on toll roads.

  8. I’d love to see enhancements in Waze around routing options, voice directions, and app responsiveness. Sometimes routes don’t account.

    I’d love to see enhancements in Waze around routing options, voice directions, and app responsiveness. Sometimes routes don’t account for closed/restricted roads or HOV/toll preferences correctly, voice directions are inconsistent, and certain app features or settings fail to respond. Even after basic troubleshooting (restart app/device, check permissions), the issues persist. Improvements in these areas would make Waze more reliable and user-friendly.

  9. Allow the app to work without google play services/store/post it on github

    As Google will be breaking normal downloading and forcing a lot of android users to use the app store (which is already a pain), and if this happens a lot of users who use android exclusively for the lack of restrictions will move away from android to open source forks which possibly won't even support google services at all...

    Please post a version of Waze on github with its own internal services/dependencies! (Similar to how it works on Apple, no?)

    Clippy grows larger every day...

  10. ♿ Disabled Driver option

    At the moment, there is nothing in Waze to help Disabled drivers when it comes to roads that are restricted to disabled drivers, car parks for disabled people, or tolls that are have different charges for disabled drivers. This causes wrong information such as toll costs and wrong directions to be returned. There is only limited POI information (wheelchair accessible) which only displays as text when you select a POI rather than be searchable and selectable.

  11. Account for home location when calculating routes

    One of the the main city streets in Lisbon (Estrada de Benfica) is just available for public transportation (bus, taxi, etc) and because of that, Waze naturally avoids using it. The thing is Waze knows I live in one of that street's arteries, so I should able to use it to get home using Waze, just like in real life. So my suggestion is that if Waze knows my home is wihtin a certain radius of a restricted street, that I should be able to use it and not force me into a crazy route just to avoid that main…

  12. No access to “…. car park”

    When I want to park at a car park like Sainsbury’s, Tesco, or Morrisons, I sometimes see signs that say “No access to Morrisons Car Park.” In these cases, you can still use the road, but you’re not allowed to enter the Morrisons car park from that direction.

    Could there be an option for users to mark places where these types of signs are posted, so others know not to take that route if they’re specifically trying to access the car park?

    Maybe when searching for an address and selecting “car park,” the route guidance could avoid roads that have…

    Dear Waze Team,

    I would like to suggest an important improvement to the app: adding a button at the beginning of each drive to select the type of vehicle – such as private car, truck, commercial vehicle, bus, etc.

    As a truck driver, I often get directed to roads that are not suitable for heavy vehicles – including narrow streets, bridges with height restrictions, or roads where commercial vehicles are prohibited. These situations cause delays, frustration, and sometimes even safety hazards.

    I believe this feature would greatly enhance the user experience and allow for more personalized and safe navigation.

  15. ZFE NICE - ERREUR MESSAGE VIGNETTE CRIT'AIR 4

    Bonjour,

    À la suite des récents comités ministériels, la zone administrative de surveillance « Nice », comprenant la Métropole Nice Côte d’Azur, est désormais classée en « Territoire de Vigilance ». Aussi, au 1er janvier 2024 ce sont les restrictions ZFE 2023 qui s’appliquent pour une durée indéterminée (voir arrêté modificatif du 19 février 2024).

    A ce jour, l’application Android Waze, indique un risque d’amende pour une destination dans le périmètre de la ZFE, pour un VL ou VUL vignette Crit’Air 4.

    Or il s’agit d’une erreur, les véhicules Crit’Air 0, 1, 2, 3 et 4 sont autorisés à…

  16. Request to Ban User "Ms-Royalty" for Repeatedly Submitting Inaccurate Gas Prices for Points

    I’ve observed a recurring issue throughout the Jacksonville, Florida area involving the reporting of gas prices. It is common for users to update only one octane level—often incorrectly—seemingly for the sole purpose of earning points. One user in particular, “Ms-Royalty,” frequently updates just a single gas price, typically for regular (87 octane), with entries like “3.050,” which are often inaccurate.

    This behavior undermines the purpose of the platform, which is intended to provide accurate, up-to-date information for the benefit of all users. It appears this activity has been ongoing for at least a year, if not longer.

    I recommend that…

  17. Emergency vehicle live intervention alert to clear traffic

    Hi Waze Team,

    I would like to suggest a feature that could significantly improve emergency response times and road safety.

    When police cars, ambulances, fire trucks, or other emergency vehicles are actively responding to an intervention, they could activate a special “Emergency Mode” within Waze (restricted to verified official vehicles only).
    Drivers using Waze nearby would then receive a real-time alert such as: “Emergency vehicle approaching – Please clear the way.”

    The alert could:
    - Notify drivers within a certain radius ahead of the emergency vehicle
    - Display a visual warning on the map
    - Provide a voice alert encouraging…

  18. Ajout de nouveaux types de véhicules et prise en compte des caractéristiques du véhicule

    Je souhaiterais proposer une amélioration de la gestion des véhicules dans Waze.

    Il serait intéressant de permettre aux utilisateurs de choisir davantage de types de véhicules, par exemple :

    • Camion ;
    • Utilitaire ;
    • Camping-car ;
    • Véhicule avec remorque.

    De plus, il serait utile de pouvoir renseigner les caractéristiques du véhicule directement dans l'application :

    • Poids total ;
    • Hauteur ;
    • Largeur ;
    • Longueur.

    Ces informations pourraient ensuite être utilisées par Waze afin d'adapter les itinéraires et éviter automatiquement les restrictions de circulation, notamment :

    • Les passages sous ponts limités en hauteur ;
    • Les routes limitées en largeur ;
    • Les ponts…

  19. A couple of suggestions

    Hello,

    Recently, the application has been frequently unresponsive to touches. This is not a phone error.

    It would be helpful if a long press could be used to select a segment on the route that I do not want to take, so that the application can calculate an alternate route. It would also be great if I could create a blacklist of segments that I don't want/can't drive on.

    Why can't buildings be displayed on the map for better orientation, or at least their numbers, even if only within, say, 200m of the destination?

    It would also be great if…

  20. Suggestion for improvements to the charging station search on Waze

    Dear Sir/Madam,
    With the proliferation of electric vehicles, it is crucial to optimize the charging station search on Waze to make it a recommended reference. Below, I propose specific improvements to enhance this feature.

    1. AA CarPlay / Displaying power, not speed status
      Currently, on Android Auto, I notice that Waze displays vague indications ("Fast", "Medium", "Very Fast") rather than the power in kW. I would like the exact power to be indicated to better inform users.

    2. App / Displaying availability on the map
      This feature, which was previously available, has disappeared. I find that displaying the number of free connectors…
