  1. Full screen speedometer option on phone

    It would be nice to have the option to have a full screen speedometer with speed limits. Motorcycle speedometers can be 10% off, so most of the time I use Waze as a speedometer (with a map), it would be nice if I could tap the speedometer and make it go to full screen big speedometer display, then tap again to return to the map if I need it.

    I've tried other GPS just speedometer, but then I lose Waze (And those aren't very accurate like your speedometer is).

  2. The report notifications disappears when the phone changes orientation.

    The report notifications disappears when the phone changes orientation.
    This should be fixed.
    For example, if a report notification such as "car on shoulder of road" appears and while I'm in the process of selecting "still" or "no" if the phone screen orientation changed even for a split second then the report notification disappears, preventing me from being able to select "still" or "no".
    The report notification should remain on the screen until after the user has driven well past the reported item.

  3. Add option to “Play voice over Bluetooth” instead of only having option to “Play as Bluetooth phone call” (HSP and A2DP options)

    Play voice prompts directly using Bluetooth (HSP) rather than using Play as Bluetooth phone call (A2DP) which partially cuts the start of each prompt and shows your mobile number as calling on the screen every time there is a prompt. So annoying! Google maps have this feature now in settings.

  4. Ability to synchronize a phone with a tablet,

    Allow the app to synchronize a tablet with a phone running the app at the same time so those that have a tablet without a cellular plan can simply open the app on the tablet (while mounted on the dash) and run maps without worrying about any hitching or data catch-up the app must do, due to having to use the phone as a hotspot currently.

  5. Forgetting one's phone.

    Forgetting one's phone. Waze recognizes when one has reached the destination. It should then ping at intervals until either removed from the vehicle, or disabled, reminding Wazers to take it with them. Similarly, it could be set to ping in a geo fenced area to remind one not to leave without it.

  6. Add feature to differentiate between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS

    Add feature to differentiate between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS

    John Stephen Rymell john.stephen.rymell@gmail.com
    21:34 (8 minutes ago)
    to Waze-Customer-Support, support

    I would like to ask for the following feature to be added to make things clearer for UK drivers.

    Add an additional notification icon for use in the UK which will allow us to distinguish between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS. UK drivers don't seem to understand that the POLICE icon is for POLICE SPEED TRAPS, and not just for whenever they see a POLICE car, and as they panic every time they see a police car they want…

  8. 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

  9. Display phone contacts while navigating

    Display the phon's contacts on the map while driving. As a sales rep i'm on the road all the time, often driving large distances for 1 or 2 clients, it then would be usefull to see which other contacts/customers are nearby my destination or route.

  15. Vocal control of everything Waze can do whilst driving.

    You should be able to just speak everything into the app, for everything and anything you might need to do, especially since it is illegal to even touch your mobile phone whilst driving these days.

    Anything that requires 'touch' to operate whilst driving, NEEDS a vocal command equivalent

  18. Save Battery by turning off the display when not in use.

    Currently when I use waze, my phones display is draining the battery. I have the following suggestion to reduce the battery usage. If you could include this in future release, I am sure everyone will turn on waze even if they don't need navigation assist.

    My suggestion

    Turn off the display automatically after a certain speed or give the user an option to turn off the display without locking the phone. This will be very helpful to reduce battery usage when you travel familiar routes and long road trips.

    Turn on the display automatically when there is a…
