Fix sunset dark/night mode toggling multiple times per day
When driving before sunset, Waze switches from its day to night mode a little bit before sunset...then it switches back to day...then to night...then to day... On my drive tonight (headed west on I-20 toward Shreveport, LA), it toggled back & forth 15-20 times before finally settling in on night mode.
I recommend adding some hysteresis into the switching that matches/compliments how you calculate the sunset proximity. Once Waze switches to its night display in the evening or it switches to the day display in the morning, it shouldn't switch back (you know, as long as you're on the same…

Waze as default navigation app in iOS.
I find that Waze is better much better, and more reliable, than either Google or Apple maps. It would be nice if there was a way to set it as the default navigation app on my iPhone.

Identificación de zonas inseguras
Buenas
Les escribo para comentarles que sería muy util contar con la identificación de zonas mas inseguras a fin de poder evitar algunos caminos donde la actividad delictiva es mayor y se corre riesgo la vida de las personas.
A veces la sugerencia de Waze para llegar a destino implica pasar por caminos donde la inseguridad es muy elevada y el usuario se da cuenta tarde de que empezó a recorrer un camino que hubiese preferido evitar aunque se demore un poco mas en el tiempo para llegar al destino.
El resto del servicio es excelente. Los felicito y espero…

Adjust the font size on Apple Carplay when viewing the suggested routes
The font is too big on the suggested routes page on Apple Carplay meaning that it's not possible to see the journey time and distance for each of the suggested routes. The text is truncated. I have to unplug my phone from the car to see the full route information.
Please reformat the text on the suggested routes page on Carplay so the information is not truncated.6 votes -
Sound to Car Infotainment Connection Test Button
Setting up / integrating WAZE with a car's infotainment system has a large number of variables with cable, Bluetooth and WiFi being examples. It would be really handy to have a test button that would run through WAZE's range of warnings to test such connections in a stationary vehicle.

Please use a professional Chinese voice, for example, the previous Lily one
The previous Chinese voice: Lily is VERY great, clear and professional, our Chinese community really loves it.
But in the recent update, the voice is GONE! We don't know why.
Actually, I searched and just found it online, you can check why your team deletes her voice.
If you really replace with new ones, please make sure the new ones are as good as the previous ones. Because the current Mandarine voice (Tongtong and Xioameng) is just so so, which is definitely from a non-native Chinese speaker.
Thanks.

Additional hazard icons
Add "Truck" as an additional hazard icon. I just saw an 18 wheeler last night entering the entrance to the North Bronx River Parkway just 100 feet from going under a low bridge.

Add a wireless OBD2 sensor for additional vehicle safety information
Suggest adding a wireless Bluetooth OBD2 device (BlueDriver or OBDLink MX+) so Waze can access safety features from your vehicle such as:
1. Blind spot warning
2. Accidental lane departure
3. Show when turn signals are on - for those that forget - optional beep after 5 seconds and before my wife says “YOUR BLINKERS ON!!!”
4. Etc.Option - For lane departure and blind spot warning above - when the two are triggered the Waze display or the hud display below could kick in the appropriate mirror camera video (if the vehicle has mirror cameras) so you see the…

Heads up
Warning of reason for new route: when traveling, we sometimes receive notices of alternate routes, that we then may accept of reject. However, sometimes, we simply are directed to a new route without any explanation or reason. We have found that ignoring the direction can result in significant delays. Why does Waze not give a heads up with an explanation for suggesting a new route in ALL circumstances?

Report a danger from a person
I am reporting this on behalf on my 10-year old: In NYC, you frequently see panhandlers in the middle of our busy streets. Could you add an option to report a person in the middle of the street as a potential danger? They are now being reported as "danger: object in the street" or "danger: animal in the street" which I find very offensive

Poter scegliere quando ricevere i messagi di avviso, tipo 10 secondi prima, 20 secondi..
Buongiorno, secondo me sarebbe molto utile poter scegliere quando ricevere i messagi di avviso (ad esempio di un autovelox, di lavori in corso etc.), tipo poter scegliere di riceverli 10 secondi prima di incontrare l'autovelox, o 20 secondi, o 30 secondi pirma. Ad oggi sono troppo ravvicinati e quando si riceve il messaggio si è già praticamente nei lavori in corso.. grazie molte Stefano

E-mail alerts for road closures
I'd like to have e-mail alerts for long-term road closures due to construction, flooding, etc. Those of us in trucking and other nationwide transportation industries could be kept aware without having to scan the entire national map.

improve voice recognition
I assumed that Waze was using similar voice recognition engine to Google. But I have the worst time getting Waze to recognize my voice. It's not me nor my phone. I can say to Waze "Ok Waze report police ahead" and nine times out of ten it'll say "sorry I didn't recognize that". If I hit the home button (to bring up home screen and have Google Assistant take over) I can say Ok Google take a note report police ahead" and it'll correctly create a note "report police ahead"
I assume that Waze's voice recognition would be better than…

spoken voice warning for hazards
SAFETY!
Every time there is a hazard reported you need to look on the screen to identify what it is.
Please add spoken voice warning so drivers do not need to take their eyes off the road when the warning comes in - sometimes the hazard is moving or flagged too late on the road and you could already "bump" into it...6 votes
