  2. Reports and Hazard Alerts

    Speed camera alerts or warnings should sound regardless of the speed travelling. I would rather know something is there even if under speed. GPS speed monitoring is not as accurate as a vehicles speedometer, it's usually 5mph out.

  3. License plate recognition for mobile radars

    The idea would be to use the rear camera of the phone to check the licence plates of the cars, and make OCR to read it.

    Then it will be compared to a database where users could report the licence plates of the mobile radars onboarded in cars.

    Waze could then alert that there is an onboarded radar on the road, and also alert other users with a flag on the map.

  5. UI Idea

    I suggest a controller layout.
    Where when you are in drive mode you can swipe to the right and have massive buttons.
    Customisable buttons with customisable actions.
    Most importantly a report speed camera button or police or construction.

    You swipe right and you can have a robot layout
    3 buttons.
    Or a controller top right bottom left layout.
    And customisable and different actions to it.
    1. Speed camera.
    2. Record audio for later.
    3. Skip song

  6. Ding & Alert

    Waze used to ding or speak when a speed camera was up ahead but after the latest update it doesn't do either, it just pops up on screen and then doesn't go away once you passed the camera it just stays there. I drove from sheffield to watford last week and i didnt get a single ding or voice alert all the way down the M1 but i got the onscreen warning.

  7. applecar auto controls to left side

    Move auto controls (volume, alternative routes, traffic report) to the left
    Add top# options report (e.g. Police, camera, traffic, car on shoulder) directly in the screen enabling "one click" reporting

  8. Receive alerts even when Waze isn’t in the foreground of Apple CarPlay

    I use Apple CarPlay and I may not always have Waze in the foreground. I find that I don’t always receive speed camera alerts unless I am speeding.

    It would be excellent to receive audible alerts of speed cameras, or other speed trap or police related alerts, no matter what app is running in the foreground.

  9. Reports ahead

    It will be great if the user can choose the alerts types in "Reports ahead" tab. Even if turned off in Reports, they are still shown in the list. For example I'm only interested in police and speed cameras reports ahead. Instead I see countless "Speed limit" , "Dummy camera" , "Road bump" in X kilometers.

  10. What is 3D Scanning in VFX?

    At its core, 3D scanning is the process of capturing the physical shape and texture of an object or environment with high precision. Using specialized scanners like lidar, photogrammetry rigs, or structured Camera & Lighting systems professionals generate detailed digital models that can be integrated into computer-generated imagery (CGI). These digital assets are often used in post-production to blend real-world elements with computer-generated content, enhancing realism and narrative possibilities.

  11. 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 voice command…

  12. Add option to disable "pan backwards to reveal upcoming turns"

    Waze pans the camera backwards to reveal upcoming turns and path, which I find annoying and disorienting. It just needs a simple on/off switch so people can opt out.

  15. Separate alert option for mobile phone and seatbelt cameras

    Can you add a separate option option for mobile phones and seatbelt cameras? Many people also talk about this on Reddit, as I googled to see if this was an option I could turn on. Using the Police alert does not work as people do not see them and crowd-sourcing turns them off. Sometimes these cameras are mobile and sometimes permanent. It is such a money maker for the govt, I see one just got added onto lights where a road was upgraded. Having this pop up on Waze would be a reminder to drivers and therefore increase…

  16. LIVE Number plate scanner, last known position of police vehicles.

    A button to enable the camera to scan and track known number plates of police vehicles (possibly other wazers).

    This can have a refresh time of say 10 sec and shows the next known position or simulate the police vehicle movement on the map. It just disappears when it loses the tracking but notifies users of recent police presence if you enter a road that had police vehicle on it in the last minute or so or within a certain distance.

  18. CarPlay synergy

    When paired with a car play device the speed cameras on the map (especially on motorways) should be displayed similarly to the mobile version (with the blue circle) showing you exactly where the camera is located.

  19. App display blocked by alerts

    Railroad track alerts and red light camera alerts are blocking the ETA and routing info in the app. Force closing is only way to resolve which is not safe while driving

  20. Driver license plate scanning

    While you are driving there are a lot of dangerous and crazy drivers, also drivers who has problems with their lamps and other electronics.

    It would be great to notify them via your mobile phone. The system is easy, you scan their license plate with your camera and you can send a message to the car next to you, after the message the other driver has the chance to answer, then you can chose if you want to continue the conversation or not
