Lake Ontario not Lake America
Truly disappointing that you folded like a worn out map. An executive order is not legislation or a congressional edict. I'm not going to be using your App any longer

Outlines for “area” place types (App/Livemap)
Currently, polygons representing “area” place types in the app and in Livemap are rendered in an overly simplified way, using a uniform fill with no visible outlines. This design choice reduces visual clarity when distinguishing between adjacent areas. In cases where one area is located inside another, the label of the inner area appears to “float” over the outer one, with no clear indication of its limits.
However, there are legitimate scenarios in which representing buildings or facilities as areas within a larger, usually enclosed area is both correct and necessary — especially in complex urban environments such as universities, airports, administrative centers, and similar locations.
It is also worth noting that this limitation does not apply to green areas (nor to police areas, which are rendered in red on Livemap), which can coexist within regular areas without causing the same visual conflicts.
Given this, I propose that Waze restore the display of subtle visual outlines for “area” place types. This simple change would improve map readability and better align the use of area places with real-world mapping needs.

App/livemap: bordas para locais do tipo "área"
Atualmente, os polígonos que representam locais do tipo “área” no app e no Livemap são renderizados de forma excessivamente simplificada: seu preenchimento é uniforme, sem bordas. Essa opção de design compromete a legibilidade da separação visual entre áreas contíguas. No caso de áreas dentro de outras áreas, o rótulo textual da área menor passa a “flutuar” sobre a maior, sem distinção de limites.
Todavia, há cenários legítimos nos quais seria correta e necessária a representação de edificações dentro de uma área maior, geralmente cercada, especialmente em ambientes urbanos complexos (universidades, aeroportos, centros administrativos etc.).
Vale observar que essa limitação não se aplica às áreas verdes (nem às áreas policiais, que são vermelhas no Livemap), que podem coexistir dentro de áreas comuns sem gerar os mesmos conflitos visuais.
Diante disso, proponho que o Waze restabeleça a exibição de bordas visuais, ainda que sutis, para os locais do tipo “área”. Essa simples mudança alinharia melhor o uso desse tipo de local às necessidades reais de mapeamento.

Add more stops would be nice
There is no option to add multiple stops, it would be really nice to have this feature on my navigation. In this way, I won't need to switch to other maps app

change speed bump to traffic calming device
There are many different devices used to slow vehicles other than speed bumps. Other examples include chicanes, roundabouts, splitter islands, entrance treatment, speed pillows, speed humps and intersection humps. I'm sure there are others too.
The speed bump permanent hazard would fit all of these other types of methods used to slow vehicles down but if we add a speed bump where there technically isn't a speed bump we confuse the wazer and likely will generate unnecessary URs.
If we changed the name from speed bump to 'traffic calming device' (my suggestion), we easily fit all these slow-down methods and alert with a simple and clear message to the wazer that speed control measures are in effect ahead.
Instead of creating a unique permanent hazard for each of these devices, I instead suggest we broaden the definition the one we already have and change it's name accordingly.
I'm currently working with the city of Sandy Springs, Ga and they employ all of the devices I've mentioned here but I am hesitant to add "speed bump" PH to their chicanes and other devices which are specifically not speed bumps.

Delete the Stop point and continue navigating to final destination
Unfortunately, it is not possible to remove the intermediate point on the route after adding it.

Customized alert distances
Since the recent release of changing the alert to 0.2 miles, makes police alerts a worthless feature because at highway speeds, at that distance, it's already too late. In fact, anything over 25mph would be too late at that point. How about a setting that allows the user to set that distance in the range 0.2 to 1 mile to make it more practical or just revert to the 0.5-mile default that was present before the latest release!

Add support for Eircodes (Ireland's Postal Code system)
Irish Eircode support is required in Waze. Unlilke a lot of postcode systems, Irish Eircodes are unique codes that match to an exact building/address. https://www.eircode.ie/benefits/overview
I am constantly getting issues reported by users of the below:
Search for an address by its house number, you get correctly routed to the correct road as we have added house numbers.
Search for the eircode, Waze pulls the coordinates from Google and routes to the nearest segment, so many times, this is the incorrect road, a lot of the time it routes users to roads behind the address beause I assume it's technically closer to the coordinates Google provided for the eircode.
We need someway, as editors, to be able to link eircodes to segments, similar to house numbers so that Waze can know to route to the same segment the house number is linked to.
For further clarification, there seems to be confusion around Irish Eircodes. Let me lay out how important they are. If I need to give someone my address, I give them my Eircode, not my address. The Eircode will bring them right to my address. So when people are using Eircodes and they are routing to incorrect roads, and different roads to the address, it's a major issue for the reliability of Waze. How can you trust Waze to bring you to the correct location if it depends on knowing that Eircodes could bring you to the wrong place.

Enable Speech-to-Text for Map Update Requests While Driving (via Android Auto and CarPlay)
I would like to suggest an improvement to Waze that would allow users to fill out map update requests (URs) using speech-to-text while driving, particularly when connected through Android Auto or CarPlay.
Currently, when users select a map update option (such as "Incorrect address," "Missing road," or "Speed limit") while driving, there is no way to add a description of the issue. This limits the ability to provide detailed reports and often results in incomplete information being submitted. With speech-to-text functionality, users could quickly and safely dictate descriptions of the problem without having to stop or manually type anything.
For example:
General error: "There’s a detour due to roadwork on Main Street."
Missing road: "There’s a road missing between Maple Ave and Pine St."
Speed limit: "The speed limit is 60 on Highway 10, not 45."
Incorrect address: "The address for 123 Oak St should be 125 Oak St."
This feature would not only make reporting map issues easier and more detailed, but it would also ensure that users can submit accurate information safely while driving. By integrating speech-to-text, Waze could enhance its mapping accuracy without distracting drivers from the road.

Additional fields in Tollbooth hazard
It would be great to add some fields to Tollbooth hazard like "name", "price" and "payment methods", so that Waze can warn (on screen and TTS) about the next toll on the Wazer route and, at least, its name and price.

Emergency vehicle
Clicking/ reporting for an emergency vehicle should be for stopped emergency vehicles and accidents.
It drives me crazy when people are clicking emergency vehicle just because they are passing by which is NOT helpful. This is apparently unclear. Would you kindly make a post that populates with the next update to inform wazers not to click for non-stopped emergency vehicles?10 votes -
I suggest making the app works with offline maps.
It’s very useful to make the app working without internet by adding the ability to load offline maps.

More UK Voices WITH STREET NAMES
Please give some more options of voices that include street names with differnt UK accents. There are so many variations of accent in the UK and having some more options that still include street names would be amazing! I used to love Kates voice but the new one is so much worse. Please create some more UK voice options!!

CarPlay + Waze / Cluster Turn-by-turn not showing like it does on Android Auto
When using Waze with CarPlay on a vehicle with turn by turn display on cluster, the Waze don't show any direction, while Android Auto display a full direction.
The car in question is a 2024 GWM Ora 03, but the same happens on a 2023 BMW 320i.
Also, I don't know if this specific Cluster/CarPlay API is available for other apps, but this only works using Apple Maps. Waze or Google Maps doesn't show any direction on the cluster while using Apple car Play.

The speed camera icon has recently changed to a new one however it blends in too much so I can be very misleading, the old speed camera icon was fine and was very noticeable compared to everything else (especially when you have a route inputted in)
