Launch Waze automatically when driving
It's rather annoying for me having to remember to launch the Waze app every time I start driving somewhere. Would it be possible for the app to detect that you are driving and launch automatically? Preferably with as little battery drain as possible.

Could you please have Waze send to correct side of the street, weather you drive a car or a bus , more safe to be on correct side
When you put in address Waze should send you to correct side of the street, weather you drive a car or bus it is more safe that making a U Turn, especially in a but where you cannot turn around.

Switch map and directions on android devices to left or right
My car is a left hand drive vehicle however while using the app on an android headunit the directions are on the left side of the screen while the map is on the right hand side of the screen which is very hard to see. I suggest an option if your car is a left hand drive vehicle to swap these two and revert back if it is a right hand drive vehicle.

Choosing personal max speed highway
hello, I wanted to know if it was possible to set on Waze a maximum speed on the highway lower than the maximum speed in order to obtain the correct durations of the route. indeed I do not drive at 130km/h but at 110km/h. I don't know how to fix it. Thanks in advance.

Please add sandstorm to weather report
Recently we have had several sandstorms that affected the drive greatly limiting visibility. I would like to be able to warn drivers or learn of sandstorms on my route.

Routing server timeout on long drives
Since the app seems to consistently time out looking for long drives, I would recommend allowing more back end resources be used for drives over a certain mileage or time. This might require an upgrade based on the high number of users.
Instead of having just one option, I would like to be able to choose between options since there are riskier routes for adding traffic.
I'm sure I'm not the only one with this issue since I can have perfect service on an iPhone 6S and consistently have your servers time out.

Don’t close history while driving
Don’t close history while driving. You tell us not to type and drive but force us to by repeatedly closing the history menu while driving. I car scroll down to pick a location I was at recently, so I have to type it in again while driving.

Waze Weather
Waze should have a weather integration where you can see local radar on the map as you drive (able to toggle it on/off). It would allow for real time weather and traffic updates.

Turn on the lights alert.
In Brazil, even during the day it's mandatory to turn on the car lights when we drive in a route (highway).
It would be very helpful there was an alert reminding us to do it each time we start driving on a highway.
(No Brasil, mesmo durante o dia é obrigatório ligar os faróis ao dirigir numa estrada.
Seria muito útil se houvesse um aviso lembrando de fazer isso cada vez em que começamos a dirigir numa rodovia.71 votes -

Children's game based on the new locations encountered during a drive
A game aimed at children that links the driving experience to the area being driven through. So, for example, I spy puzzles based on nearby landmarks (eg I spy, spelling the name of the neighborhood). Raises children's awareness of the world around us, much like pokemon got people exploring their local neighborhoods on foot. Puzzle ideas can be provided by other wazers/children.

Paddington Voice
Please make the Paddington Bear voice a permanent option. It is the only navigation voice that I don't want to argue with. It creates a calming experience and i’m upset to open Waze to a a notification that it’s leaving. I’ve got many friends and family using Waze so they too can enjoy the Paddington Bear voice.

Time zone adjustment
Waze should adjust ETA to the local time when destination is a different time zone. When you leave Phoenix for southwest CO, for example, the ETA should be in mountain time, not AZ time. Currently, the ETA only adjusts when your phone automatically adjusts as you cross the time zone. It would be nice to know drive time is 6 hours, but ETA is 7 hours due to time change.
