Increase the contrast / Change colors at the top + Larger alert when route changes
A couple of times I missed the change of route because the alert it too minimal. I drive with no waze sound, so I do not hear the change. I think this is a critical improvement because of the time you can loose when you miss the change. Thanks!

‘Zoom in to issue’ from route overview
The ‘route overview/timeline’ is good but it doesn't let you understand what the issues on your route are in any detail just has the logos eg 3 traffic, a broken down car and police
Can I click on the issues to quickly zoom to an overview of that area so I know where those police are, what kinda traffic disruption it is.
Sometimes these are normal eg the traffic at those temp lights. Other times it could be I big deal eg the beginnings of an unplanned closure and diversion.
Currently if planing a long drive I would have…

Choosing a route on the basis of difficulty driving or gas saving
The default route should not only be the fastest route, there should be an option if you want an easier drive that also saves on gas but is 5-10 minutes longer. Waze should provide the opportunity to choose that route in the settings options

Make "on my route" the default tab for reports
It seems that people would be more interested in reports that are on their route instead of around me. You can save us all a click by making on my route the default tab.
1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Suggest a faster route with Vignettes/passes
This happens very often: You plan a trip. It should take e.g. 12 hours using highways.
Then you open Waze and forget to add the pass/Vignette. The Waze offers you a route. You glance at it and don't see it is taking back roads on the overview, so you accept it and start driving...
After 10/12 hours you realize you are only halfway there and you won't arrive to your accomodation on time (happens more than you'd think)... what happened? Waze didn't prompt you to add the pass/Vignette for a faster route.
Yes, I have the option to…
2 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Parking route
It would be great if, once you arrive near your destination, Waze could guide you through nearby areas with available parking. The app should take you on circular routes that always bring you back to your arrival point, dynamically adjusting the path if necessary.
Imagine a city with a grid layout of intersections:
You arrive at point A and select an option from a pop-up indicating that you need to find parking. Waze directs you to take a loop around the block to the upper left, bringing you back to point A. If no parking is found, the app…

change route
Your route suggestion has made my narrow road a continuous stream to traffic. I am not exaggerating. There is driver aggression, speeding because there is no passing room as you direct cars of Putney Hill. Please do not sent cars down Coalecroft Road
London SW15.The local council & police are aware but we need your help. The road cannot cope. Drivers are thick & pushing down at speed to avoid being inconvenienced. Cars will get damaged, and I have seen a fight.
You have cause a serious problem in west Putney,London

Why can't I get the route I want? I want to go from L.A. to San Francisco via route 101. Why Can't I get that on Waze?
I want to take route 101 to San Francisco from L.A. Why can't I do it? It is not a choice of route and I can't adjust the route. Also, why does it keep sending me thorough TOLL roads? I don't want to go through tolls.

Waze on android auto route issue
The recent update on waze for Android auto no longer lets me choose which location after I voice command a destination. If I say, "take me to AutoZone" and I'm 5 miles from one it often just starts my route to one in a completely different city. I've even had it route me to a different state! Before it would give me a list of places that matched that name and I got to pick. Also, my route history now shows up on boot on Android auto. I drive for work a lot and it is not my passengers' business…

Enhancement request: Fresh or Stale route
t would be great if there was a way to know how fresh or stale the data is on your route relative to number of Waze users who have driven it.
Sometimes you wonder if there is another waze user even on the route you are driving, so you know reports would be non-existent.
Maybe an indicator to show:
Red: no users driven this road in last XX minutes.
Yellow: XX users drove this road in last XX minutes
Green: Waze users taking over the earth by using this route!I realize it would another layer of complexity to…

In route notifications
Please, DO NOT INTERRUPT my drive route with notifications wanting to sign on through Google or my email OR wanting to know if I am riding or driving it is VERY DANGEROUS!! The app is FORCING me to take my eyes off the road to deal with a bunch of STUPID unnecessary notifications. If it happens again I will be deleting this app and not using it again!

Route Planning
I ride a motorcycle and prefer to create my own routes and then follow them via my GPS. It would be awesome if Waze afforded me the ability to create the map and then download it to be followed with Waze on my phone

Road block notification and subsequent re route
When faced with a blocked road there is no way to reroute because whatever route you take initially it will try to take you back to the blocked road and this is very frustrating

Bouton route barré non signalé
Lorsque une route est barré et que waze n'a pas été avisé, on devrait avoir un bouton pour demander un nouvel itinéraire et non se faire remettre sur le même itinéraire sans arrêt.

"This route avoids tolls" when avoid-tolls option is on.
Suggestion: A note that "This route avoids tolls" when avoid-tolls option is on.
We (and others too) had that we were taking a much longer route (more than 40 minutes extra!) because we didn't realize that avoid-tolls is on...
Thanks so much!
