Add "virtual friends" with his nickname
Sometimes we meet cool people on the waze forum but we prefer not to exchange Facebook account, phone numbers.
It would be cool to add them to share bip bip, message, classification and to compete with.
With the last upgraded there was phone numbers, Facebook account but I think there is a lack of that!4 votes -
Allow the ability to add and see friends on the map. This would be perfect for car cruises, since we are utilizing other apps to do this
I go on a lot of car cruises and we use other third-party apps in order to see our friends live on the map. These apps are very limited and don't offer the display of police speed traps like Waze does, so it would be perfect if we could see our friends on Waze to create a safer cruising experience

The WP app needs to be updated. Make functional: additional voices, Facebook/friends feature, landscape view.
The app is great on other devices, but is in need of refinement on WP 8.1. The app does not properly download additional guidance voices (on Terry Crews it stayed at 0 percent for weeks), the social/friends link just goes back to the main Waze screen, the app is locked in vertical position--which is not optimal; and the gas feature (including reporting) doesn't work at all. Ideally, this app should mirror the other devices in terms of functionality--it would be heads and shoulders above the default "Here" app.

Account for (sporting, concert) events along the route when calculating ETA for planned drives
If you need to be somewhere at a certain time, but there is a sporting event along the way, there will be a lot of event traffic just before & just after the event. Waze could account for this traffic when calculating a planned drive. Then, based on historic data for such an event, Waze could either plan a route that avoids the traffic or it could show the ETA so you could drive past the venue during the event. Alternatively, you could know how early before or how late after the event you should leave to avoid the…

Share the best way to come to your place with your waze friends
You want your friends to join you, and there's a specific way you want to point. That would be great to suggest a route to you (not to a meeting point) and specify the route (using waypoints)

A Reminder to start driving
I want to drive a destination at a specific time. I want to set the time when I want to be there. When it is time to start the drive Waze will provide a reminder. Similar reminders using TV broadcasts.

Make list of "suggested eta recipients" editable
Every time I go anywhere using Waze it "helpfully" pops up a picture of ONE person: my ex (and the option to add others). The only person I've ever sent an eta to is my ex, so I guess I'm just doomed to see their contact pic every time I drive?
Even though I've gotten rid of all my Waze friends (why would I need to know when my friend halfway across the country is driving? That's just annoying), and even though I've completely un-synced my contacts (stopped using "send eta" when the resulting info was fairly useless (ex…

Take a trip with friends/follow me function
Problem: when my friends and I take a trip with more than 1 car, it is difficult to keep both cars on the same route and with the same stops.
Potential solution: the abality to send a link that would sync up our drives to be able to see where they are on the route in real time. If the future route changes, the device that did not initiate the change would be able to accept the change. If either car gets off the shared route, a notification would be sent to both users and the user who is…

"Where To?" should disappear a minute or two after a drive starts
"Where To?" every. single. time. I start my car is insane. I don't need to plot my every move. I run to the store or go to work/home way more then I need directions. Waze is my default for traffic alerts and contributing to them when running around town. If no "Where To?" is chosen a couple of minutes after the drive starts, make it close automatically.

The recent update of WAZE is pretty slick, but I do have one concern. Moving the access to friends from the bottom right of the home screen
The recent update of WAZE is pretty slick, but I do have one concern. Moving the access to friends from the bottom right of the home screen and tucked away two frames over is not a great idea. Since the update, I can not see any of my friends online. Currently, If you want to see your friends online, you can access it through the search tab on the bottom left corner, then hit the forward arrow next to your name on top, then scroll down to the menu to find "My friends." For example if I want to…

Feature Request: Show Total ETA and Drive Duration When Adding Stops :
Dear Waze Team,
As a frequent user who relies on Waze for both personal and professional navigation, I’ve noticed a counterintuitive behavior when adding a stop to a route: the app updates the ETA and drive duration to reflect only the added stop, not the final destination. This disrupts planning, especially when the stop is brief or incidental.
Request:
Please consider adding an option to display the total drive duration and ETA to the final destination, even when a stop is added. Ideally, this could be shown as:
- A combined ETA (current time + total duration to final destination…1 vote -
Create tours by driving a route and saving it and then be able to email it to family and friends.
By creating and saving tours that you can email or replay you can send them to family, friends, or business associates and have them tour a location or route to show them the best the area has to offer. Realtors could use it to show homes and neighborhoods to prospective buyers.

Add option to set a destination as final destination in when adding a stop, not just the existing options of "Add a stop" and "New Drive"
Sometimes when running errands, I'm already driving to "A". But then I want to get directions on how to get from "A" to "B". With the current options of "Add a Stop" and "New Drive", I would have to "Stop", set directions to "B", and then add "A" as stop. This is very complicated and it would be much simpler if there was an option to simply add "B" as final destination while I'm already navigating to "A".

Have option to be able to automatedly share a drive with a saved address.
When ever I add a contact to share drive it defaults to send that information to the email address under that person’s profile. Not the mobile number.
the only way I can get the shared information to a person’s Mobil number is by clicking on the message button. So the search box will not work to share to Mobil number.
So bottom line is that it’s a long process to share a drive with a contact that has an email address listed under their profile.1 vote -

Route stops editing
The existing ability to “add stop” is great but, if this is done in error, there is no way to edit the list of stops or re-arrange the list without cancelling the drive and re-doing it. Which in affect, messes with the drive history which I use to log my business mileage.
Please add the ability to edit your drive and stops: add a stop, edit a stop, rearrange stops, delete a stop.
Thanks
