  1. Option to set size for alert bubbles

    Make an option to select which alert bubbles you want to see and setting to
    make that bubbles big enough to be able to see them without zooming in the map. Now at some
    point you can't see what is that little dot on the map because auto-zoom makes bubbles very small at high speed :(

  3. Real-Time "Reckless Driver" Alert to Improve Road Safety

    A proposal to introduce a new reporting category that allows users to alert others about reckless or dangerous driving in real-time, enabling nearby drivers to take precautionary measures and prevent accidents.

    The Problem:
    Reckless drivers (excessive speeding, weaving between lanes, aggressive tailgating) pose an immediate threat to everyone on the road. Currently, law-abiding drivers have no way of receiving an early warning about a dangerous vehicle approaching them. In many cases, this lack of awareness leads to severe accidents that could have been avoided if drivers had a few seconds to react.

    Proposed Solution:
    Add a new report type under…

  4. CRUZ ALERT - Demand notice to restaurants, clubs and etc.

    My name is Erasmo Cruz (erasmo321@hotmail.com) - Brazil

    My idea is great.
    You should create a service that alerts companies, bars, restaurants, clubs, live events based on WAZE.
    Imagine every time the user puts the address of a restaurant, the restaurant is alerted.

    With this warning he could anticipate the demand, set up more tables, buy drinks and even reinforce his staff.

    Imagine a ballad being able to know in advance that 300 people put their address and that they will arrive in 30 minutes.

    Imagine the value of these alerts/service.

    I ask you to…

  5. Speed alert for 2 mph over limit

    Currently, you can select an alert if you are going above the speed limit (at all) or 5 mph over the limit.

    I would like to suggest 2 mph.

    5 mph is too much because by then, a cop will almost surely give a ticket without mercy. 5 mph over the limit is usually the informal grace limit.

    But an alert for any mph over the limit is too sensitive. Even on cruise control, my car sometimes exceeds the limit by a fraction of a mph when I begin to go downhill. It takes a second for the cruise control…

  6. Alert of traffic jam to avoid colision

    Hello,

    Trafic jam must be report as a danger. We need that the voice warn us to slow down before.
    Right now the only way to avoid colision is to look at the screen of our phone to see if there a trafic jam. On highway it’s realy dangerous.

    Thanks

  7. Add alert capability to post for Police to include those that are 'rolling' and in which direction . . .

    When posting an alert where Police are involved, there isn't an option to note whether they are moving in traffic and if they are rolling with you or in the opposite direction. I feel that would/should be a natural choice to be able to make while reporting, to benefit other 'Wazers' operating near you. That's what it's for, right?

  10. Make the nav text (under the distance) white instead of light blue to improve contrast

    The current navigation text is light blue on black (which becomes dark gray under most lighting conditions) lacks contrast and becomes unreadable in many situations. Also would be good to allow for user-selectable text size to take advantage of larger displays (6 and 6 plus).

  11. Announcements depending on speed

    I recommend that Waze adjust the "trigger distance" for pre-alerts when traveling quickly.

    For example, currently Waze pre-alerts "In one-tenth of a mile ..." regardless of speed.

    If you are driving 60 MPH, you cover the one-tenth of a mile in a mere 6-seconds ... by that time, Waze is already alerting you (AGAIN) that it's time to make the turn.

    I'm all for voice alerts ... but when the app gabs for 10-seconds straight because of back-to-back announcements, eh....

  13. Night before alert with time to leave gone?

    Night before alert with time to leave in the morning gone? Used to work for all planned drives but stopped around the same time as the new horrible menus appeared…

  14. UI Problem: Speed camera\police alert covers the speed limit

    I was using Waze in horizontal mode last night - the speed limit and my current speed were displayed near the bottom of the screen in the middle horizontally. I noticed that when alerts such as Police ahead or Speed Camera in x feet were displayed the notification box covers key bits of the screen such as your current speed, the speed limit and your precise location.

    I think either the UI needs to shift up when the alerts are displayed, or the alert box needs to be constrained to one side of the screen.

    I did take…

  15. when you're on a highway riding fast and there is a traffic jam ahead - waze alert us

  17. Time Until Turn

    Similar to the ETA function, I'd love to see the estimated time (countdown, not time of day) for the next turn by the distance. That can be very helpful as distances aren't as inherent to people as time passage.

  20. A short instructional video on how to alert an accident, police, etc

    I would like to suggest the following: that a training video appear on behalf of the company on how to warn about an accident or the police, today that many people do not even know about the possibility of alerting, and only use the application to see alerts that others have written. Especially in the country of Panama where I live. So my idea is that once in a while a short instructional video will appear that will explain how to alert and register an accident or anything else with the police. Thank you
