Change of colour on the map as you navigate a route
When driving a route it would be nice if the colour of the route on the map would change so you would know we're you are going and were you have been. Some times when there are a lot of turns it can become confusing

Stop changing back to default route
When I choose a route different from the derault, it's for a reason. It's irritating or worse to find mid-trip that I'm back to the default route without even a notice or warning of some kind. How about sticking to the chosen route but notify the driver of a problem ahead?

Bring back the “fastest route”, “add speed cameras”
Fastest route was removed from the app. Also at 3361 third avenue in the Bronx NY there is no camera icon for an installed camera in front of the addresses referenced in this message. Further we need a feature to add bus lane cameras, school zone start and end zone speed enforcement cameras

Use road posted speed limits plus user speeds for in route algorythim
This will help find a better route based on posted speed. Also if we could calculate average speed of wayze users in a route area to help adjust for traffic. as in this road has a posting of 50 MPH but average user speed is 25 this equals bad traffic and should re-route to a road that is 35MP with little to no traffic. to set aside from others who do this allow a setting to limite the number of in route routing adjustments. Some may become overwhelmed with to many re-directions on the fly.
The direct route is…

Ad "best noted" route or "tourist mode"
Linking waze maybe with trip afvisor or something to help tourist not to miss a interesting place or suggestions a few km close to his route.
So as you could have:
the shortest route -distance
The less time route - time
the cheapest one -tolls
Or The more intereresting route based on POI and or user's notes or something like that.1 vote -
Eliminate route
I am a dog walker in Oceanside California. When coming on Vista Way towards interstate 78 and I 5 north from the west (so traveling east). Waze is often telling me to take the I 5 north ramp and really that is like attempting suicide. I wish they would eliminate that route option.

Map a Route “With OUT Pot Holes”
Route selection should display red dots on it representing pot holes so the driver can choose which route to take ! And in the settings we should have the choice to avoid roads with pot holes reported!

"I'm in a parking garage" button to delay route recalculation and map out garages
An "I'm in a parking garage" button would allow you to:
1) Delay route recalculation until the car had actually started on the route (10 meters along actual street or so)
2) Map out existing parking garages for feedback to navigation
Because fiddling with your phone while driving is illegal in Austin, I prefer to set the route and be done with it before I start driving. Driving in circles around the garage means I typically have to do it afterward if I don't want recalculation to squelch my chosen route (non-toll vs toll for instance).

Save a route, not just a destination.
Save a route, not just a destination. We have a new driver in our house and we'd like to save specific routes for her to follow. We realize this could impact the time to destination but would be acceptable in certain situations

Clicking any "All Turns" list item zooms to location (upcoming in route)
During navigation, there is no short/simple way to look at a location point of your route ahead. Regardless, a simple and low click, logical solution would be to achieve looking at your upcoming route point for traffic purposes (or whatever reason) would be looking at your "All Turns" list (1 click) then one could scroll through all the upcoming turns, select a location (2nd click), and the screen then reverts to your map route, but targeted to view the turn selected on the "All Turns" list. Returning to the original view where the experience started is as simple as…

Stop route button in landscape mode
Why is there no stop route button in landscape mode? It doesn't seem like to be a wise idea to not have all the same user interfaces as you do in portrait mode.

Notify when an accident is reported on my current route how far away it is
When an accident is reported on my current route, report how far I currently am from that accident so I can decide if I want to take an alternate route or if I am far enough away to decide if that accident has been cleared. Is there an option to report an accident has been cleared? That would be cool too . . .

POI route / info
provide switch for "tourist mode" - while you are driving to destination, provide limited notification of POI in the area (on your right is the Eiffel tower, built in 1887). "tourist mode" can allow for categories for selection (history, culture, etc). linked to this is the ability to select a POI route in your area (just go for a drive to the POIs in your area).

Alternate route for immediate area
My commute is 13 miles both city and highway. When i have issues near my house, Waze needs to offer alternate route based on proximity. I need to find a new route where i am at, not at the end. For now, i just turn to force it to do something else.

Route plan bug
Hello,
For at least 2 months there's a very very frustrating bug when trying to calculate a planned drive.
If you wish to calculate a drive for tomorrow and the route driving time crosses today's current midnight, then the calculation says "route to long, recalculating with new arrival day" - see attached screenshot.This recalculation loops and doesn't end and you need to wait for past midnight inorder to actually be in the next day and get a prediction for your drive in the following morning.
Annoying!
Why does it take you so long to fix this issue?

Default view should be Map View not List View when choosing a route.
It's easier for me to visually choose the best route since I know my city, and I sometimes have a preference for one route over the other.

Route quality
Currently in view of waze, the only criteria for chosing best routes us its being aaphelt, sand or .... . But there is no croteeia for evaluating the quality of roads and their asphelts.
I propose to add the 3 to 5 level for roads quality then, let us to select the tick of levels for choosing best rout.3 votes
