Signalements concernant les animaux
Pouvoir signaler un animal présent sur la chaussée et pouvoir signaler les collisions... Cela permettrait aux gens d'être plus prudents et plus alertes afin de sauver de nombreuses vies animales.

Speed limit icon too small and it would be better on the left-hand side of the screen
I love ways, but these speed limit I got is too small and it would be better on the top left hand side of the screen better for visibility especially when you’re using Waze on your screen of the car

Give us the option to keep depereciated icons\voices
Please can you stop taking away the icons and voice that we like and just ask us if we want to pay something and just keep them, it costs you nothing once you've licensed the product\voice and I for one miss T-Pain but taking away my Ecto-1 is just a low blow Waze and I don't like that you're doing it without even giving us the option to keep it. you've made my Waze just that little bit worse today......

Please add a filter based on size
Please add a filter based on vehicle size. An example would be a large RV based on height and length vs a small compact car.

Improve Waze for all (professional drivers like taxi drivers, truck drivers and bus drivers as well)
Feedback for Waze Improvements (Australia-specific but globally relevant):
1. Map and Speed Limit Accuracy
• Please update maps and speed limit data more frequently, especially in Australia where road rules and limits are often updated.
• Ensure that the speedometer always shows the correct speed limit without disappearing or failing, as this can mislead drivers and cause unintentional speeding.
• Improve reliability so the speedometer never stops working unexpectedly.
2. Audible Alerts and Driver Focus
• Introduce louder and clearer spoken alerts for every speed limit change, so drivers do not have to look at their phone screen.
• Provide audible alerts for all types of cameras (speed cameras, red-light cameras, mobile speed traps, school zone cameras, bus lane cameras, etc.), not just fixed speed cameras.
• This would greatly improve driver safety and focus on the road, especially for professional drivers who cannot afford distractions.
3. Truck and Bus Navigation
• Add full navigation support for all classes of heavy vehicles, including:
• Light Rigid (LR)
• Medium Rigid (MR)
• Heavy Rigid (HR)
• Heavy Combination (HC)
• Multi-Combination (MC)
• All categories of buses.
• Include truck- and bus-specific routing options, such as avoiding low bridges, restricted roads, weight limits, and bus-only roads.
• Many drivers who rely on Waze for personal car trips would also like to use Waze for their professional work in trucks and buses, but currently, Waze does not fully meet these needs.
4. Professional Driver Use Case
• Waze has a huge opportunity to support professional drivers (truckers, bus drivers, delivery drivers, etc.) who want the same smart navigation and community-based alerts they enjoy in their cars.
• Expanding features to include heavy vehicle navigation and more robust audible alerts would make Waze not only the best app for personal use but also the top choice for professional driving.Feedback for Waze Improvements (Australia-specific but globally relevant):

New report “Animal Help”
Hello Waze team,
I have an idea for a new type of community report that could help save animals and engage your users in a meaningful way.
The idea: allow users to mark the location of a stray animal on the map with a specific icon (e.g., a paw). Additional status stickers could indicate if the animal has food, water, or if it is in poor health. This would help local animal lovers and rescue organizations respond faster, while strengthening the Waze community spirit.
The report could expire automatically after 24–48 hours to avoid map clutter. It could also optionally show links to local animal welfare organizations.
This small addition could have a big social impact and bring positive media attention to Waze.
Thank you for considering!

Waze sleeping mode shortcut for ios shortcuts
Could you please add settings in the waze to stop using GPS on the background or ios shortcut for sleeping mode?
I am using apple shortcut to start waze when I connect my phone to the bluetooth headset in my car. I am using navigation everytime I enter my car and looking for any way how to close waze, or stop location services - sleeping mode or any other solution to stop draining my battery. In apple shorcuts is no way to close app. There are several waze shortcuts but all of them is related to navigate somewhere, add point etc. No possiblity to close waze, or prevent using power consuming GPS locationing on the background.
So I every day when I am leaving the car I have to switch off or sleep the app manually.Could you please add settings in the waze to stop using GPS on the background or ios shortcut for sleeping mode?

Feature Proposal – Wildlife-Sensitive Navigation Layer for Waze
Subject: Feature Proposal – Wildlife-Sensitive Navigation Layer for Waze
Dear Waze Team,
I hope you're doing well. I would like to propose a feature idea that enhances both user experience and environmental responsibility.
The idea is to add a “Wildlife-Sensitive Zone” layer to Waze. This feature would highlight areas with known wildlife activity—such as migration paths, breeding zones, or protected habitats—helping drivers avoid routes that may disturb local ecosystems. It could also provide alerts when approaching such zones and suggest eco-friendly alternative routes.
This not only aligns with responsible navigation but also supports environmental sustainability. I believe Waze, with its global reach and innovation, can play a valuable role in preserving nature while improving travel safety.
Thank you for your time and for considering this idea. I’d be happy to provide further details.
Best regards,

Rutas Vehículos Eléctricos
Actualmente no planifica rutas para vehículos eléctricos como lo puede hacer ABRP. Ni siquiera te deja seleccionar vehículo eléctrico ya que solo deja elegir carburantes.
Estaría muy bien y sería una app casi completa si se incluyera un sistema de cálculo y rutas para vehículos eléctricos en donde la ruta se planifique con sus correspondientes puntos de recarga.
Creo que es un punto necesario y fundamental, ya que los vehículos eléctricos son el futuro y los de combustión están en un próximo proceso de extincion.5 votes -

Full visual lane guidance (like TomTom or Sygic)
Hello,
I would like to suggest adding full visual lane guidance to Waze, similar to what TomTom or Sygic offer.This means showing all lanes clearly on the screen, with the correct lane highlighted using arrows or lines, not just a small icon or short instruction.
The current Direction card with a lane icon is helpful, but not enough, especially when driving on highways or in complex intersections.
A visual guide across the screen would make navigation safer and easier to follow – especially for less experienced drivers or tourists.
Please consider adding this feature in future updates.
Thank you!5 votes -

Speed bump feature
I would like to suggest adding feature where speed bumps can be added on routes since when driving at night in Dominican Republic they sometimes just show up and you’re not able to see them in time.

Choose Route in Android Auto
When using Android Auto, allow users to choose from available routes, regardless if Avoid Tolls, Freeways, etc... is selected.
Route choice is available directly in the Waze app, however, when connected, Android Auto locks the Waze app preventing the user from accessing it directly from the phone (love that safety feature)!
Please allow users to choose a route when using the app, including tolls or no tolls.
