Waze shouldn't remove the old route while it is recalculating a new one
Sometimes, when I'm driving and using Waze, it identifies me in another street (crossroads, frequently). With that, it starts a new route, show me the RECALCULATING animation and remove the old route.
The problem is: if the place that it happens, it doesn't have internet connection, I run out the last route and the new one.
The perfect way, in this case, would be if Waze removes the old route ONLY AFTER get the new one.
Thanks.4 votes -
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

View route in steps before trip is started
It would be nice to be able to see your route step by step BEFORE you begin the trip....I don't see this option anywhere

choose navigation type on navigation screen and on route picker
To switch between Shortest or Fastest you have to go into settings->navigation->type and choose shortest or fastest. I often switch between these modes when picking my route so it would make sense to have that option available in the same screen as where the routes are chosen AND on the "navigate to" screen.

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.

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…

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

Automatic route overview
One feature I miss from iGo was if there were no directions due within two miles the map automatically zoomed out to a North up overview of the entire route. When the two mile threshold was breached the view returned to the normal 3D view. I would love this in Waze. I know that you can do it manually but anything that stops you taking your hands off the wheel is a good thing.

"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).

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 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?

Waze carpool - Join my ride instead of changing my route
As a (potential) driver in Waze-carpool, I'd like to enter the route I'm about to use and wait for passengers to take a ride along that route. In the current state i refuse a lot of rides because i don't want to add time to my route.

Route options on Car Play
When connected to car play, I cannot choose a route, Waze does it for me. Sometimes it chooses routes I would not choose. Either poor areas of a city, poor roads, lots of side streets, toll roads, etc. I’d like to choose my route from at least 2 or 3 options vs none. Thank you.

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!

Location vs route in search
It's super annoying that when I search a location, if I've never navigated to it, I can tap on it to see its info card, where if I have navigated there before, I can only start a route to that location. The only way for me to see the info card is to search and then look around the map for the location I want, if it even finds it, and tap on the map. The listed results should be just locations, unless you've navigated there recently, then show two options, one to route and one to see the info…
