expose intents
for all clients expose an API
for Android expose:
• intents
• broadcast intents
• application shortcutsfor the slightly savvier user this allows accelerated navigation by macro (Tasker, Llama, OmniDroid, et al)
API allows for similar macro- or automation apps on iOS (ipad, iPhone), windows mobile, other platforms surely
instead of
° load waze
° click or swipe to open navigate to UI
° search for address
° select match
° go
° pick routethe macro app could accomplish this in
ONE click
this is employing merely one of a panoply of time saving waze measures

electric vehicle mode germany
Der electric vehicle mode ist bisher nur in der USA und Kanada verfügbar. Europa wird schon bald signifikant steigende Zulassungszahlen für BEV ausweisen, Google Maps hat Ladestationen schon als POI ausgerollt. Auf geht's, Waze, das schafft ihr locker.

Zoom - integrated car displays (Android Auto)
The zoom functionality is awful currently when using Android Auto with an in-car display. Google maps allows easy zooming using the rotatable knob (identical and in line with volume on a VW). Can this become a feature for Waze?? It's so distracting and dangerous trying to zoom when driving, a quick turn either way (like Google maps has) will be much better.

Colour code the best lane options for upcoming turns
It would be fantastic if the lanes could be colour coded for upcoming turns to get you into the best lane possible. Example is if you are a long way from the turn, have all the lanes in Green. Then as you get closer to the intersection, colour the lanes next to your optimal turning lane in Orange and all other lanes in Red. This would then encourage you to get into the correct lane in preparation for your turn well in advance. This would help when you are in heavily congested traffic, multilane highways or in higher speed…

Friends
Hi!
I think it's time to add new methods to add friends in the app.
Not everyone has Facebook so I thought, how about using these services too?- Whatsapp (Chat Link)
- Email (Link)
They are methods used in millions of apps. Hope Waze adapts to these systems soon!

Waze needs a proper pinch to zoom
Waze needs a proper pinch to zoom/unzoom. It really bugs me so much that I can not do that when it is a basic function on most Sat-Nav's these days.Little Plus and minus symbols are like something from the days of the first navigation retail units.
i'm going to go back to Google Maps for now and check back every few weeks in the hope that it is implemented.
If you are reading this and feel the same way as me, please make yourself heard and maybe we can get this changed.4 votes -
stop asking for access to my contacts!
Google, you're supposed to not be evil. But demanding access to all my contacts before letting me use the app is evil. Stop it.
And making me add an email address to make a comment is just an asshole move, which is what the contact requirement is, incidentally.

Show border line on map
Since the corona virus crossing borders in Europe isn't that easy as before. So it would be nice if I could see the border line clearly on the map. A thick red line for example (like google maps) or something similar would be neat.
It also makes things easier to navigatie if you know whether you entering a different country when planning your route. In Europe, this sometimes could be the case.

Make the nav text (under the distance) white instead of light blue to improve contrast
The current navigation text is light blue on black (which becomes dark gray under most lighting conditions) lacks contrast and becomes unreadable in many situations. Also would be good to allow for user-selectable text size to take advantage of larger displays (6 and 6 plus).

F1 (Formula 1) Collaboration
Would love to see a collaboration with F1 (Formula 1). Since Google already sponsors the McLaren F1 team, it seems like an obvious match. McLaren livery on a F1 vehicle icon and Lando Norris providing voice navigation.
Ideally, all F1 teams would be represented. All teams liveries for vehicle icons and other drivers (or commentator David Croft) for voice navigation would be great!

This is exactly why I am going back to Google Maps
Why have points? Is there any good reason? Do you get a prize? If it's just for show, I don't have time for games. I would rather use Google Maps, when I can't understand why I am getting points. And it serves no purpose. There are already so many overload where what people create serves no purpose and is useless.
It's a great app, but some of us are too grown to care about points. If I get points at a store or movie theater, there is an incentive. There's no with WAZE. And that's too bad.

When backing out of destination leave screen there instead of moving back to arrow. Like google maps
When in Google maps if you type in an address and then cancel the trip, the screen will stay there. I do this for pinpointing areas, with waze the screen resets to your position after backing/canceling a trip.

Option to use Bluetooth HSP or A2DP
Waze uses bluetooth A2DP for navifation instructions. But a lot of car sets only uses bluetooth HSP. There are apps that convert A2DP to HSP but these apps always mute the car radio. So it would be great, if Waze can send navidation instructions via HSP to a bluetooth car set. So it will mute the radio, give the navigation instruction and then unmute the radio. I think that would be a big feature, cause google maps can't do this right now.

Car Park Rates
Kindly add in carpark parking rates if possible. Currently the function to view possible nearby parking areas/lots is very useful but it'll be a plus if charging rates are included.

Multi Carburant / Multi Station
Actuellement Waze propose de sélectionner notre carburant ainsi que notre station préféré. mais si l'on a 2 véhicule a carburant différent il est nécessaire de changer systématiquement alors que nous pourrions choisir plusieurs carburants. dans la même optique il serait interessant de pouvoirs choisir plusieurs pompiste (pour selectionner par exemple plusieurs grandes surface) car les pompistes indépendants vende bien plus cher c'est pour cela que j'aime bien l'options de waze quand je cherche de l'essence mais je ne peux pas selectionner par exemple auchan carrefour intermarché pour avoir un plus grand choix. soit j'en choisis qu'un seul…

Make speed limit larger on apple carplay
I have read the responses to this issue. It seems to be a bot responding as:
Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.
That is NOT the issue. Just remove the speedometer and make the speed limit LARGER. Like it appears on Google Maps, which owns Waze.
