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

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.

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).

Enforcement trailer
Germany and parts of Europe experience a whole new kind of speed cameras since a year or so, the so-called "enforcement trailers".
Since two months these are used on the german Autobahn on a regular basis.
The trailers are moved from place to place and stay there for up to two weeks. The places are used recurrent, e.g. there are 40 places in North Rhine Westfalia and 10 trailers, every place get's a trailer once in a while.Marking them as mobile speed camera is useless, since they always disappear because of the low waze usage in germany.

Voice directions working on Windows Phone would be a great addition to the app.

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

to Waze-Customer-Support, supportI 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…

Waze navigation screen needs to stay in front for phone calls
The settings option " keep waze on top when taking calls" does not work on Samsung phone. When either making calls or taking phone calls and trying to talk over the car speakerphone, the Samsung phone call screen pops up, completely blocking the waze navigation screen.

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 votesThanks for reaching out.

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.

Is there a possibility that the new design could be reviewed so that the speed camera warning doesn't obstruct the number of our speed?
Is there a possibility that the new design could be reviewed so that the speed camera warning doesn't obstruct the number of our speed? I think there's a UX design flaw regarding that.

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.

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.

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

Create an option to open/enable Waze when the user’s phone detects a speed of a vehicle (20 mph, for example).
