Alerts based on Route
Since Waze has the ability to track your trips I came up with this.
Lets say you drive to work everyday. You know their are 5 Speed Cameras, 4 Construction Zones and 6 Potholes. Waze should automatically disable it's alerts if you are familiar with the Route.
Lets say it disables it when Waze knows you have been on the same Route for at least a week.
Now if for example later on in the future there is a new Construction, or SpeedCamera installed on the same route it alerts you since it's new.
This would eliminate the need…

School districts input feed for updating their annual schedule and hours of operation changes
Since some school districts can have 85 or more zones and many states have over 20 counties ; managing the school holiday and time schedules can be a very big task.

insufisant speed limit notification
Hello and Happy New Year to all.
It remains for me 2 major gaps for waze and one interesting improvement.
- The sound alert only when over speeding is insuffisant and already cost me 1pt on my licence when I accelerate to overtake. ..
You can not look at the screen constantly we must keep an eye on the road. Then configurable audible signal for danger zones is therefore indispensable.
- The speed is not displayed or set as she is known by the apk.For the improvement is to advertise only hazards on the road on which flows…

Police report : choosing the exact location
It is crucial to add a feature that allows users to pinpoint the exact location of police officers on the map. Or to be able to correct the location of the police officer. This increased precision will help drivers easily identify control zones and adjust their speed accordingly.

prioritize environmentally friendly route proposals (with user-value)
nowadays, it is no longer appropriate to always display the fastest route as the default.
just today waze wanted to send me from a 25.2 km route to a 49.9 km route because it was 5 minutes faster. I think 14% time savings for a 58% longer and thus a more material- and environment-harming route, not appropriate!
in addition, vehicles consume less fuel when they drive slower (39 vs 70 km/h average in my example)There should be a user-value in the options with defines the accepted time-distance-tradeoff. In my case a value of about 3 km/min would be accepted:…

Better navigation - height width weight
Please add three values to segments, maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight. All segments should default to 0.
Please add user settings of maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight. They should default to 0. The label should direct the user to enter their height/width in metres and weight in tonnes.
When reviewing a navigation route, check if there is a value of maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight exceeding 0. If there is a value, cross-check the users maxHeight, maxWidth, maxWeight is lower.
If the users value is higher than the segment value, disregard that segment as a navigation option.
This would help users of a wide range of…

Revolutionizing Waze for Motorcyclists: A Call for Enhanced Audio Mode
Dear Waze Team,
I have been using Waze for several years in my car, and recently, I purchased a motorcycle. Along with the motorcycle, I acquired an intercom system, which has led me to primarily use Waze by relying solely on the audio instructions from the intercom, without being able to see the screen.
However, I have come across a feature that I believe would greatly improve the experience for motorcycle users like me, as well as for those who prefer not to have the screen on while driving. It would be beneficial to have an option, let's call it…

Option to Disable Auto-Rerouting After Route Is Set
Hello,
I’d like to suggest a feature that allows users to disable automatic rerouting after setting a route.
As a driver, it’s not always possible (or safe) to constantly check the device to notice when Waze changes the route and tap “No thanks” in time to stay on the original path.There are countries where you must follow a specific route due to legal or financial reasons — for example, vignette zones, road restrictions, or toll obligations. When Waze changes the route automatically, it can cause problems such as fines, invalid route logs, or entering roads not suitable for…

Sur autoroute, créer une barre à droite qui indiquera les 2 prochaines aires avec des icones différenciées "aire de service"/"aire de repos"
Bonjour, une fois sur autoroute, on ne sait jamais où est la prochaine "aire de repos" / ou "de service". Alors une fois sur autoroute, il serait utile de conserver une barre à droite de l'écran (comme celle à gauche pour les zones de contrôle ou les ralentissements) qui indiquerait la distance qui nous sépare des 2 prochaines aires avec des icônes différenciées pour distinguer les "aires de service" des "aires de repos"

ALERTS - NOTIFICATION ADVANCED BASED ON ACTUAL SPEED, NOT AT FIXED DISTANCES.
Reduce notification distance (based on speed limits, best on current average speed, better on a setting based on current average speed).
It often happens me that on city roads the navigator gives me informations about three crossroads ahead causing confusion.
I hear "traffic light with camera" I expect it to be the very next traffic light, not the the one after that.
Or "railroad crossing ahead" and I turn on a road 100m before the railroad (using waze just for map, not for actual navigation).
For this I…

Signalements zones de contrôles état d'urgence
Bonjour,
En raison des récents événements tragiques qui touchent la France et nous heurtent profondément, l'Etat d'Urgence a été décrété par le Gouvernement, ce qui signifie que durant n'importe quel contrôle routier, les véhicules ainsi que ses occupants peuvent être fouillés.
Il serait nécessaire voire primordial de bloquer la possibilité de signaler les zones de contrôles routiers et barrages de polices aux utilisateurs afin de ne pas permettre aux personnes ayant un lien avec ces actes de barbaries sans nom, d'être au courant de ces actions coordonnées et rendre facile la découverte de personnes impliquées de près ou de…2 votes -
Offline notification timeout
Can the offline notification message timeout automatically, please? It obscures way too much of the screen essentially stopping functionality of the app, and it won't go away automatically when network connection is resumed.
Using my phone on my motorcycle I cannot reliably touch the screen with gloves on to acknowledge the message. So after a however brief cell signal dead zone I get no useful navigation until I pull over, stop, take my gloves off, and press the ok button. Even an hour later this message stays blocking the screen despite point having lost signal only momentarily.

False construction zones for increased traffic fines
Reporting false construction zones that, after receiving 100 alerts or more, result in an E-petition mailed to the municipality placing them on notice of their failure to remove, "increased traffic fines" signage when no construction is occurring in the area.
These notice petitions may protect drivers from traffic fine gouging, policing for profit municipalities that entrap unsuspecting drivers. If an out-of-state driver was cited in these areas and had to contest the citation, they could refer to reporting provided by Waze users working together to keep municipalities honest.
Allow Waze users to search improper sign notices, Pothole class actions,…

Add a mechanism (button or gestuer) that would take an immediate screen shot and overlay it with the current speed and coordinates
If being pulled over by a cop the user could push the button and get a map with the overlayed speed, the average speed for the last ~10 seconds, date and time and the gps coordinates. This information could be used to convince the cop or the court you weren't speeding.

Track my car's vitals; build database for community benefits
This is a big idea, no small undertaking I know. I'd like to combine my GPS app with the functionality of an app like Gas Cubby, which tracks my MPG at every fill-up and alerts me when my car is due for maintenance.
Here's how I envision it:
-I tell Waze what car I drive: ex: 2003 Saturn Vue, 6 cyl, automatic
-Every time I stop to fill up, I tell Was

signalement police
bonjour, nous sommes beaucoup a nous apercevoirent qu'il y a un abus de ce signalement, au lieu de confirmer le premier signalement ils rajoutent un autre signalement cela fait beuguer la voix du gps et en plus si l'application marche en arriere plan, le signalement est inutile car on vous previent 500 metres avant, sur autoroutes a 130 km/h il faut quelques secondes.... et en general l'auteur du signalement peut l'avoir signaler une fois l'avoir depasser donc dans tout les cas il est inutile... l'application serait bien mieux en modifiant la distance d'au moins 2 km ou de la supprimer…
