Level of guidance option
I would like a new low setting for "level of guidance" under sound settings. I wish I could set it to a two stage tone notifications. Such as one ding x amount of feet before the turn and then a double ding immediately before the turn.
I find that the verbal instructions can be more than necessary in more familiar areas.

Hazard on the Shoulder
When selecting a hazard on the shoulder, there is only an option for a car on the shoulder. How about adding truck on the shoulder?

MPG Tracking
Have a section available (possibly with the gas prices reporting) that allows you to input the amount of gas ($) & quantity (gallons) so you can keep track of how many miles/gallon you're getting.

Car care features implemented in to the Waze
Waze could have same kind of an fuctionality as there are in many car care apps in the market.
-Counting mileages and fuel consumption.
-You could set up odometer reading when u should change oil etc etc and Waze could remind you of that.
-When navigating to a far away destination Waze could warn u if gas should run out before you reach there and suggest gas station en route.For example on iPhone there is app called Gas Cubby that can count mileages and costs for running your car but you have to put in mileage and gas price…

Google Now (Jelly Bean) integration
Right now I can fire off navigation from Google Now to Google Maps. Waze is offered as an app to do this, but does not accept the external input of the destination to Navigate to.

Eco mode
How about an Eco mode that would give you a warning beep if you accelerate or decelerate too fast or drive over the posted speed limit? Of course, the driving speed (for traffic) would need adjusted (because if you're driving 10 under the speed limit for MPG reasons that doesn't mean that there's traffic issues).

System constantly reroutes then the server times out & deletes exsiting route
When I set a route the system constantly reroutes almost every quarter to half a mile. At least 50% if not greater I will then get a message that the server timed out. This wouldn't be so bad except that when this happens it deletes the route I'm trying to follow until it tries again and usually then the server returns a route. This makes Waze virtually unusable. Please make it that once Waze has a route that it continues displaying and following that route until it gets new information from the user or server for a new route. Even…

Notifications in Android Notification bar when Waze is in the background
I would like to see an icon popup next to the Waze icon in the Android Notification bar when people send a Ping, comment to your chat, or when an event like police or accidents have been reported. This would be useful when Waze is in the background.

Could Waze Help Protect Women Driving Alone?
Suggestion: Safety Alerts for High-Risk Routes
As a woman living in South Africa, I really appreciate Waze and the ability to customise my driving preferences, such as avoiding highways and choosing routes that suit my needs. However, I often drive alone to unfamiliar destinations, and I sometimes feel anxious about my personal safety when travelling through areas I don't know well.
My suggestion is for Waze to consider introducing a safety notification feature, similar to its existing speed camera alerts, that warns drivers when a route passes through an area identified as having a higher safety risk. Alternatively, Waze could…

Animal Crossing Hazard
I tend to be on the road often and absolutely love using Waze whenever I need a GPS. As someone on the road often, I tend to notice there are many times that there are sudden animal crossings or a lost pet on the side of the road. This does tend to be on highways where many people are going very fast and are not as careful with their driving.
I recently thought of the idea- I think Waze should include a button, under the hazard category where we could press some form of “careful animal crossing” button to warn…

Shut Down UserVoice
Yes, the title is clickbait. But that really is the end goal!
Let’s get straight to the point: UserVoice has done an excellent job of centralizing Waze community suggestions in a tool specifically designed for that purpose. However, after years of cumulative use, it has become clear that managing it has grown increasingly difficult.
And now, entering the scene: Discuss.
Discuss has opened up a whole new range of possibilities for community interaction. It is a technically modern platform, with a pleasant user experience and strong functional versatility.
There is no doubt that Discuss is capable of absorbing all…

turn by turn notification on in-car instrument cluster display
On my BMW 5 series (OS8.5) and CarPlay with iOS26, turn by turn notification/guidance that appears in instrument cluster is way too big, covering the route ahead which I need to drive. It is very difficult to see what is in front of me and in that case I need to look at the large display, which is not that safe especially when you need to turn. It would be much nicer to have this window moved underneath the car arrow instead of ETA window. ETA window in instrument cluster is not essential information and I could live without it,…
