Route list as secondary display
I like how on Apple Carplay the iPhone is used to display the route list. Can this be implemented with Android Auto? Also, is there a way to display the route list in Android Auto? This is a big feature that seems to be missing.

route changes suggestions setting
On route changes suggestions, please can you add a setting that is a kind if accept or ask for confirmation, and if the route change pop ups it auto disappears after 1 minute? It's against the law in UK to touch the screen when moving, so having this pop up a d it stays on the nav screen until you accept or cancel is a real problem! If I can have the settings to auto accept or request , and then if it pops up on screen and I can't stop the car to accept or not it minimises or…

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

On screen disable of route, once underway.
I exit freeway because of traffic. Now WAZE wants me to turn left, turn right, U-turn at every opportunity to get me back on the freeway route. I would like to instruct WAZE to reroute me with option to avoid previous routing. I know if I go far enough off initial route this will happen automatically. But that's not helpful when I'm on unfamiliar streets.

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 . . .

Flooding (Inondation): route modification
More & more extreme climate phenomena occures. In this context, the current proposed routes are sometimes crossing flooded areas, which is sometimes impossible to go through. I would like to propose an evolution of the flooding alert to have two levels:
- a first one indicating that we could face issues, but the routes is still valid (~ current alert)
- a second one, indicating the road cannot be used & so generating a new route computation by Waze, to avoid it. (New)2 votes -
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.

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.

Error calculating route: retry
“Uh oh, error calculating route. <ok>”
Add <retry> button to avoid having to go out and re-enter the destination address1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

No vocal instruction is needed for the normal (fastest) route
Assume that I commute to my work every day and if there is no traffic jam, I know what is the best/fastest route and for that I don't need any vocal instruction (to remind me, where to turn left...) In this situation it's only annoying.
The suggestion would be: add an option for "professional commuters" and for the normal fastest way, by default activate "Alerts only" and in case, there is a faster route, then activate "Sound on".

Improve route design to deliver clear direction
So when we start the way, the route displays so complicated with too much colors that confusing me where to focus on. It seems like everything is highlighted. Even with the traffic sign, I didn't realize that it was showing traffic through little red lines outside of the route. I just hope the design of the map to be simple, direct, and clear. Just highlight the path or route that I am going with just one simple line using different solid color that shows if it's on traffic or not. Just like google map!

Accurate transfer of Route map from computer to Waze App.
I've just recently started using Waze on my computer to create trip routes then transfer them to my computer. However, when I try to transfer an alternate route to the one Waze shows as their primary route, it only transfers the Waze preferred route. This has happened twice in the past 2 weeks. How can I force Waze to use my preferred route.

Sichtbarkeit von Stau auf der Route
In der Navigation kann man den Beginn bzw. Das Ende eines Staus nicht gut erkennen.
Die Markierung der Route (blau) ist zu breit bzw. die Markierung für einen Stau (rot) ist zu schmal.
Blau sollte vielleicht schmaler gestaltet werden, so dass eine bessere Übersicht entsteht.4 votes -
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.

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 -
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

estimation based on the gradient of the route
Implement fuel consumption/energy expenditure estimation based on the gradient of the route. Currently it does not take into account whether the route contains uphill or downhill slopes. In many cases a route can be more efficient if uphill slopes are avoided or efficiency can be improved if it is downhill. It can also be very useful for bicycles, trucks, etc.

Include traffic signal count on route summary.
For “short” routes or re-routes, include count of traffic signals. During peak periods, a longer route may be preferable with less signals, which have the potential for delay if even no delay exists at the time of route calculation. The definition of short is arbitrary and could be decided by the devs based on utility vs performance.
