Show city name over center of town, not over general area.
I often find that a town name is not actually displaying in the direction of the town, but in the direction of town tiles closest to me, which may not be where the town is at all.
My suggestion would place town labels in the direction of the center of town.1 vote -
Allow longer routes
Waze should really start to allow longer routes, if the money is a problem then there should be a additional subscription possible so people that want to go on longer commutes can do so. This just sucks, If you live in The Netherlands it's not even possible to navigate to the middle of France. So any work stuff there and also vacantions are impossible to navigate.
MAKE IT POSSIBLE! I'm sure I and alot of other people are willing to pay at the moments they need to do longer routes. Let's say 5/10 dollars for a month subscription to do…
103 votesGreat news! Starting from the last year it is now possible to build routes up to 1000 miles long. Happy cruising!

Cars with priority to be shown on the map
Hi,
would be very nice if you can start cooperation with ER, FD, police departments and try to place some sort of tracker into their cars. they can share information about their position and it can help to
speed up their road.then it would be very useful for all drivers staying in the crossroad to know and see in Waze from which direction ER, FD, police is coming . then they can free up the way for that kind of cars and there will be not so much chaos on the crossing once they need to pass around.

Bring back the talk to Waze for both users IOS and Android. It used to before google bought Waze.
Being able to say “Okay Waze and tell Waze your direction / address now it only works for Android users not IOS users. IOS users have to press a microphone button to talk to Waze which eliminates the Whole point of being hands free.

Add a NEW 'Police Notice' flag for the "MIDDLE" of the road!
On Waze, when flagging a Police, there's currently a 'POLICE' flag, for the current road side you're on; 'OTHER SIDE' flag, when the Police is on the other side of the road; but NO 'MIDDLE' (of the road) flag!
There are many instances where Police park (or hide) on the middle of a two-way route or major roadway.
Currently, selecting either of the two available options leaves the other side "unflagged" until a driver from the other side flags the same Police.Creating a "MIDDLE (of the road)" flag, will not only place a Police flag on the (middle) of…

ETA Only - no directions
Other mapping apps allow “ETA Only” choice. I know how to get to work. I don’t need directions. But, I’d still love getting an ETA and hazard warnings.

Half-screen display on Android Auto
Is itbpossible to optimise the half-screen display on Android Auto to show the key direction information? At the moment the road names trail off if they're too long while there are things like the exit numbers that are in green aesthetic boxes taking up a lot of unnecessary space.
Would be nice to also have the pop-up notification shortcuts to "Home" or "Work" or a chosed Saved Place like Google Maps so I can start on my journey more effectively.

Make navigation intuitive - have the navigation voice speak from the direction of the next turn.
Do you ever get confused with left and right?
My wife does, causing panic when she takes both hands off the wheel to for the "L" with both hands.
The solution, and also a darn cool feature, is to have the navigation voice "move towards" the junction you going to turn off on as you approach it, using stereo.
Problem solved - just follow the voice!

Provide an API for starting Waze with multiple destinations
9 votesThank you for this suggestion.
This idea has been being discussed for a while and recognized as an important user request.
We hear the community’s voice and would like to share that while we can’t currently commit to a timeline, we do have plans to create a way to add more than one stop pre-drive.
We’ll keep the community posted, please stay tuned! -
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?

Look up and add a stop on planned route for coffee, food or gas.
While on a planned route, have the option to select food, coffee, gas that is shown on the planned route, in the direction you are driving.

Signal deviation from "normal" work-home route
So I am using Waze mostly for avoiding traffic going to and from work, I suppose like most people. It would be helpful to have a feature where it gives an audible alert if it is plotting a course that is different from the "normal" one to avoid traffic. I imagine this could work by determining the best route assuming no significant traffic, and giving an alert if it is plotting a different course than that. Same thing goes for changes in mid-course due to accidents, jams, etc., that occur after I start. Normal navigation announcements aren't too useful…
