Consecutive alerts within a short distance
At the moment, the Waze app provides alerts (such as hazard reports or speed/red light camera) approximately 400-500m away from the location. After driving past the report or camera, Waze doesn't check if there are any further alerts in the next 400-500m and as such, drivers miss out on this information.
An example is at the first traffic light, there is a red light camera, however after turning, the next traffic light (assuming it is relatively close/within 500m) also has a red light camera. Drivers currently only receive one alert for the first red light camera…

Disable Bluetooth usage in app. I use Bluetooth as a care phone, but listen to the radio.
I use the Bluetooth for car phone use, but listen to the radio. Because you can't turn off Bluetooth use in waze, it runs silent because it's trying to alert you by Bluetooth.. a setting for Bluetooth use within the app would be helpful..

Adding Android Auto on Phone Bottom Buttons and Pocket Casts to Media Players
Two small suggestions. 1. Why do the Android auto navigation buttons disappear on the phone? 2. Can you integrate podcast player Pocket Casts into the Waze audio players?

Instead of during phone call mute yes/no, offer more options: no muting, mute notifications, shortened directions, audible signal, mute all
Instead of during phone call mute yes/no, offer more options:
* no muting
* mute notifications (but offer normal driving directions)
* shorten directions (no TTS, no and then...)
* audible signal only (ring light bell when maneuver is upcoming and stronger bell when maneuver must be made)
* mute allThis will allow the driver to choose to get some form of navigation during phone calls, but which is still less intrusive to the phone call than usual.

A "Tell me when my commute is under an hour" mobile alert option.
Would love a mobile alert that tells me when a given route/commute is under a certain time threshold. I usually stay at work until traffic is reasonable. Getting a mobile alert that lets me know when it's "safe" to leave would be awesome.

speed cameras
The alert about speed cameras warns about cameras that are positioned on the same direction the car drives, which is counterproductive.It should warn about cameras that are placed on the opposite direction, because these cameras are the ones that are relevant , they take the picture.

Speed camera is less visible after new update
After the recent update the speed cameras are hardly visible as its camouflaged into maps and other things please change it to how it was previously or make the speed cameras visible by making it bigger on the maps. I'm sure every waze users agrees with me.... If u check social media platforms others don't like it either.

I live in FL. Electricity goes out at least 3 times every week. Each time electric comes back on Waze camera starts recording.
Find a way to stop Waze from turning on when electric goes out and then comes back on. It happens frequently in Florida. Recording is off then when electricity comes back on it automatically turns recording on. I saw one lady say on Wyze blog camera coming on by itself and invades her privacy. Perhaps power outages are causing her problem. I keep getting alerts after a minuscule even 2 second blip in electricity since camera turns on.

Access to view live traffic cameras where available publicly on the internet like around Pittsburgh, PA..
In many cities there are traffic cameras posted on major routes. These are available over the internet and mobile phones so drivers can see live feeds. It would be great if Waze showed those along routes or on the maps so drivers can quickly view current conditions.
We should also be able to add these to the maps through the editor and link to the published URLs of the cameras.

send destination or itinerary from computer to phone
Hi! It would be nice to send itinerary or destination from a web brower on a computer directly to the Waze app. A Great way would be through the "share menu" extension built in OSX.

Update Waze so it works with AppleCarPlay. CarPlay allows phone apps to be displayed safely on the car's internal screen, so why not Waze?

Improve speed control zones approaching alerts
Colombian wazers have been facing problems due to speeding fines, sadly in most of the cases is not about Waze alerts, but is the poor signaling on the Colombian roads and autoways. Given this, is it possible for you guys to deploy a kind of beep when driver is approaching a radar/speed camera detection zone, let’s say 300m before the location of the camera have a beeping which is increasing frecuency the more you approach the camera/radar location? This could help drivers reduce speed and avoid fines due to the lack of standardized signaling in Colombian roads. Thanks!

Be able to interface from your phone like Apple iPhone
I really like your app and use it every day. My frustration is that I use a Samsung Android smart phone (I am not a fan of Apple iPhone's). Apple play works very well with your app. You can control your app from the phone or the car interface (basically the car mirrors the phone). With Android play you can't control the app or view the app from your phone. All interfaces have to be on the car not the phone. Secondly if you use the app now on the car navigation screen (as I…

Speed camera alert under menu Police
Hi
After my last voyage I found that waze doesn't have a lot of marked speed cameras the same with sectional speed measurement. For example in Czech republic. I had to use other app to get alerts. Why waze let us Mark speed cameras In new menu or under police menu. It would be easier to refresh database.
Under police should be option to mark type of services like border guards, police or road inspection of transport.1 vote -
Arrow that shows direction phone is pointed for first few seconds of navigation.
I often don’t know which way to turn when I put in an adress. Before putting in an address the arrow points whatever way your phone is, which is helpful. Once starting navigation, the arrow changes to a random direction. I wish there was a way to keep the “live” arrow on based on my the direction my phone is pointed for the first few seconds
