ROADWORK: leverage roadwork feed from Swedish transport administration
In Sweden, public feeds of roadwork and traffic events (accidents) are available at no charge on the internet.
Please enable the display of these in the waze client. They could also be used for improved routing.

Let users customize auto tweets such as "Acabo de reportar una redada policial, ..."
Traffic enforcement corps are different from country to country so it might be a good idea to let users tweak their auto tweets a little. They might have the application configured in a language but tweet in another, etc.

Ability to report ALPR and flock cameras
The only current ability to report a camera is the police cameras. Please add a separate icon or ability to report these cameras.
Side note for those of you who are adamant that these don’t result in speeding tickets… they don’t until they do… do you really trust the entity behind them?5 votes -
Always Display the Next Turn for Safer, Easier Navigation
🚗HELLO FELLOW WAZERS, IF THIS IS A FEATURE YOU’D LOVE TO HAVE, PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO HIT THE ⬆️ VOTE BUTTON!
If you’ve ever completed a turn only to discover that your next turn or maneuver is almost immediately afterward, and suddenly you need to get across two or three lanes, you know exactly why this feature would be helpful.
I believe Wazers would benefit from Waze making navigation even more helpful by offering an option to always display the next turn or maneuver underneath the current navigation instruction.
➡️ NEXT: Turn right in 500 ft
↩️ THEN: Turn left in 0.3 miOne quick glance. Two navigation instructions visible. No need to touch the screen just to see what comes next.
This would be more than a convenience feature. Potentially, it’s a safety feature that everyone could benefit from.
Knowing the next turn or maneuver in advance gives drivers more time to choose the correct lane, anticipate an upcoming turn, exit, fork, or other maneuver, and avoid sudden lane changes or last second decisions. It also gives drivers one less reason to interact with the screen while the vehicle is moving.
Ideally, this could be an optional setting such as:
Settings → Navigation → Always Show Next Turn
Drivers who prefer the current display could leave it unchanged, while those of us who want more advance notice could simply turn the feature on.
If this is a feature you would find useful, please take a moment to tap the ⬆️ VOTE button. Every vote helps show Waze that its community is genuinely interested in having this option added.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and thank you to everyone who votes and helps bring more attention to the idea.
Safe travels, fellow Wazers! 🚗💨

More community-driven feature
Hello Waze,
I’ve been thinking about something that could be a nice addition to the app.
Waze is already very community-driven through map editing, traffic reports, road alerts, and more. I think it would be great to bring that community spirit into other parts of the app as well.
One idea iscommunity-created custom icons. Users could create, upload, and share their own icons, while others could rate and comment on them. This could lead to unique artwork, memes, seasonal designs, local themes, and other creative ideas.
Another idea could be community-created backgrounds that users could use to further customize their Waze experience.
The rewards we already earn from reporting traffic, police, hazards, and other events could potentially be converted into tokens. These tokens could then be used to unlock or “purchase” community-created icons, backgrounds, and other customization options. So far qhen we report, we only get points so we can unlock achievements which is kinda blank, this i feel could add more functionalities.
This could give the community another reason to contribute, while also making Waze more personal, fun, and creative.
I’m sure there could be many more ideas around this concept, but I think this would be a great place to start.
What do you think?

I would love if the EMA from Star Trek's Academy kept giving me directions
Of all the voices I've heard giving me directions, Roberto Picardo's EMH Voice is one of the best. I am disappointed that his voice will be leaving WAZE soon. His, or maybe Majel Roddenberry's voice. =)

Custom Map Themes/Skins (Game HUD Style like GTA, Need For Speed, Cyberpunk)
While Waze already offers custom voices and moods, the navigation map layout itself remains largely the same. It would be awesome to introduce customizable map themes/skins inspired by classic gaming HUDs (e.g., retro arcade minimaps, NFS-style night/neon aesthetics, or GTA-inspired map palettes).
Why this would be great for Waze:
Deeper Immersion: Custom UI themes go beyond just changing the car icon or voice, offering a fresh visual experience.
Great for Marketing Partnerships: Waze could collaborate with game publishers for temporary promotional themes during major game launches.
Fully Optional & Safe: These themes could function similarly to Dark Mode (a color and icon palette swap), maintaining high contrast, route clarity, and road safety without cluttering the screen.
Even generic style options (like "Synthwave/Neon", "Retro Arcade", or "Minimalist Dark") would make daily commuting much more fun and unique.

Bring back "Reports Ahead" on Android Auto
Bring back "Reports Ahead" on Android Auto. Latest update removed option to see the list of Reports Ahead. Seeing these is critical when you are route planning. Especially on the fly when there is traffic, closed roads, accidents, etc. Specifically in Subarus but I'm guessing other auto brands too.

Show trip history for the same destination
It would be very useful if Waze could show a user’s previous driving history to the same destination.
Today, Waze only shows a small history/search icon for places that appeared in my past searches or navigation history. However, this does not provide enough useful information about when I actually drove there or how long the drive took.
The main benefit would be the ability to quickly see when I last drove to that destination. For example, if I search for a place I visited before, Waze could show the last time I navigated there, along with previous trips to the same destination.
This could include:
● The date and time of the last trip
● Previous trips to the same destination
● The actual driving time for each trip
● Average travel time based on my own history
● Best and worst travel times I personally experienced
This would help users remember when they last visited a place, and also better understand how long the drive usually takes for them based on their own real driving history - not only based on current traffic estimates.
For destinations I visit from time to time, such as family, work, school, appointments, or places I do not visit regularly, this feature could make trip planning and personal tracking much easier.
יהיה שימושי מאוד אם Waze תוכל להציג למשתמש את היסטוריית הנסיעות הקודמות שלו לאותו יעד.
כיום, Waze מציגה רק אייקון קטן של היסטוריית חיפוש עבור מקומות שהופיעו בחיפושים או בניווטים קודמים שלי. עם זאת, המידע הזה לא מספק מספיק ערך שימושי לגבי מתי באמת נסעתי לשם או כמה זמן הנסיעה לקחה.
היתרון המרכזי יהיה האפשרות לראות במהירות מתי בפעם האחרונה נסעתי לאותו יעד. לדוגמה, אם אני מחפש מקום שכבר ביקרתי בו בעבר, Waze תוכל להציג את הפעם האחרונה שבה ניווטתי לשם, יחד עם נסיעות קודמות לאותו יעד.
המידע יכול לכלול:
- התאריך והשעה של הנסיעה האחרונה
- נסיעות קודמות לאותו יעד
- זמן הנסיעה בפועל בכל נסיעה
- זמן נסיעה ממוצע על בסיס ההיסטוריה האישית שלי
- זמני הנסיעה הטובים והגרועים ביותר שחוויתי באופן אישי
זה יעזור למשתמשים לזכור מתי הם ביקרו לאחרונה במקום מסוים, וגם להבין טוב יותר כמה זמן הנסיעה לשם בדרך כלל לוקחת עבורם, על בסיס היסטוריית הנסיעות האישית שלהם - ולא רק על בסיס הערכות תנועה נוכחיות.
עבור יעדים שאני מבקר בהם מדי פעם, כמו משפחה, עבודה, בית ספר, פגישות, או מקומות שאינני מבקר בהם באופן קבוע, הפיצ׳ר הזה יכול להפוך את תכנון הנסיעה והמעקב האישי להרבה יותר קלים.

Automatically adjust the size of the text for turn instructions for longer text to fit more on the screen
Currently if there is text in the visual instructions or towards that is really long, Waze will end up cutting off important information that could be useful in Android Auto.
My suggestion is to make this text be automatically adjusted so more can fit on the screen but can still be readable with the naked eye.
I'm not sure what is exactly the best way to go about this but currently I find it not as user friendly as it could be considering us editors try our best to get all the information out there only for like a fair bit of it to be cut off with the current UI design.

More Icon for Motorcycle
Hi, Waze is my daily choice for my personal and work related navigation app. I commute to work with a motorcycle and weekdays drive with a car. The many choices to choose for the car icon is absolutely fantastic and I got utterly disappointed when the icon for the motorcycle is only one and permanent. I wish you guys can put more icon option for the motorcycle like an Adventure bike like Honda Crf Africa Twin, the Superbike like the Bmw S1000, the fun foldable scooter Honda Motocompo, the cruiser Harley Davidsons Fat Boy or even a "Kapcai" like my Yamaha Y15ZR. I hope you guys can add more variety. ❤️
