Pickup pasanger will display levels
When Waze alerts me to pickup new passenger on the way (Waze carpool) it will be awesome to see how much drives the wazer done before meeting me. What is his level? So I would have some sort of confidence when picking up a total stranger.

Display time to leave in plan a drive
Dynamic time to leave and length of travel is more important than just seeing the arrival time on a planned drive. Travel times vary so these information are vital.

integrate into Android Auto?
Good day guys. Just a quick one. Please can you guys have a look to integrate this awesome app into Android Auto? This is new technology that many car makers are starting to use and they only make use off Google maps. This app displays your mobile navigation on the vehicle's multimedia head unit. Waze is my navigation off choice and it would be a big plus for me and many others. Thank you. Regards. Izak (Dok69)

Waze augmented reality kit for motorcycle helmets
What about developping an augmented reality Waze kit tailored for helmets and that would display a customized version of Waze infos for motorcyclists ? Connected to the app with BTLE.
Could be more efficient, safer, rider-centric. We have cool ideas on how to build a good hardware for this.4 votes -
Turn off construction alert - bug and improvement
There are other suggestions for this but some are old so I am also adding a new one. The audible alerts for costruction and not at all helpful and very annoying. I have selected to not show alerts for construction yet they show on the map. One zone near me has up to 5 different alerts from people throughout the construction zone, including a spot where the "End Road Work" sign is visible. I get it, people (hopefully passengers) are bored and play with the app. But the audible warnings interrupt my music or podcast and get very frustrating.

Speed indicator
It would be nice for the speed indicator and the time to be on the left hand side of the display rather than the right so the driver can view it easier on the car's display.

Request Waze make a slight programing change to the on-screen alert display.
Put the "Still There" above the warning message with the "Not There" below it. I sometimes try to touch the correct response and my vehicle moves just a little and I end up touching the wrong response.

Swap the remaining time and distance on the bottom of the display (or make remaining time optional)
I drive an electric car, so remaining distance is important for me, but when I use waze in split screen mode, only the remaining time is visible.
It would be nice if I wouldn't need to enlarge the screen when I want to see the distance to destination.4 votes -
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

Return the displaying of FB friends on a map in app.
Most users are interested in where their friends are, not unknown people. Need to make FB friends be visible on the map all the time, not just when they are within 1 km. There is an invisible button for Confidentiality to compliance in the application.

Background version of waze to voice alert on speed cameras when routing suggestions is not needed
In most of the cases you know the driving route and you don't need waze for suggesting routes. but it's very helpfull to get voice alert on speed cameras on the way.
I suggest to take that feature in waze and make it a standallone version that runs in the background (without the need to open it, or to display path, progress etc' which is battery consuming).5 votesYou can turn Waze to Alerts Only mode and keep app in the background – audio notifications about upcoming alerts will be provided.

Report (10min) Queue:
Report (10min) Queue: If I report a traffic issue and I happen to be in a data dead zone due to powerlines or carrier issue, I get the Oh Oh display. If my report is queued for up to 10mins before expiration, I may pass out of the issue area and still get the report in. Right now the report is just lost.

Open up Waze to developers so we get third party plugins!
Would be amazing if Waze allowed other developers to integrate their software AND hardware to use with Waze.
Escort radar has their own app where if you hold a button on their radar detector, it'd report it on their cloud to other Escort users that a police is spotted.
However, having to have two apps loaded at a time makes it very difficult to catch alerts from both apps at the same time. Opening up an SDK or API on Waze and allowing other companies and developers to integrate with Waze would allow Waze to dominate the industry.
With this…

Traffic alerts
I think I will be a good idea for the app to have traffic alerts. Not just saying traffic reported ahead. Based on the speed limit the app to tell you to slow down because of traffic. It will be extremely useful on highways. For example, a kilometer ahead to display/announce such warning and recommendation to slow down. Therefore, drivers will not have to stop abruptly and accidents might be prevented.

Apple CarPlay Update needed
I love that we finally have Apply CarPlay integration! The update does need some additional work in my opinion. The roads/street names/ icons all appear blurry on the CarPlay display. All of the notifications that pop up are clear/crisp. It just looks like the map isn't fully loaded and isnt giving a clear picture like the map on the phone does. Also - the icon (arrow or car) is massive compared to the rest of the map. It doesnt get smaller/bigger when zooming in or out. I think the icon should change size based on the size of the…

Add on for public transportation
Can give a subway rider real time heads up on delays, overcrowded platforms, or redirects that don’t usually hit - like in NYC - the mta site after I’m standing in the station. NYC has WiFi in all stations, so it would be huge!

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).

speed sign
I think it would really help having a road speed sign up at all times on the display there are a lot of streets that go for kms with no signage
