  1. Turn on the lights alert.

    In Brazil, even during the day it's mandatory to turn on the car lights when we drive in a route (highway).

    It would be very helpful there was an alert reminding us to do it each time we start driving on a highway.

    (No Brasil, mesmo durante o dia é obrigatório ligar os faróis ao dirigir numa estrada.
    Seria muito útil se houvesse um aviso lembrando de fazer isso cada vez em que começamos a dirigir numa rodovia.

  2. Change the "watch out" alert.

    I think it would be beneficial to change the way Waze gives alerts. The automated voice says "Watch out" and it's for a vehicle on the shoulder like 2 miles a head of you, or for a cop or something in the middle of the freeway. When Waze alerts about these issues, it always makes my heart drop. Imagine you are on the rode at night and your passenger, says "WATCH OUT" very loud, it would frighten anyone, and the last person you want to be scared is the driver. Maybe something less urgent, for non urgent alert

  3. Sound Alert in LOCKED phone

    I think Waze could enable an option to be able to keep warning (Radar, Hazards, Accident, Police, Heavy Traffic, etc) even when phone is LOCKED. When I lock my Android 4.3.1 it doesn't alert anything.

  4. Verbally Say Speed Limit on Road

    Waze needs to say what the speed limit is on the road verbally. It is dangerous to look down at the phone screen for the speed limit when it is not posted on the road, and you have no idea what it is, especially for those who have difficulty reading small print.

  6. Add a warning alert for "danger area"

    It would be very interesting to have an option button to add a warning alert for "danger zones", so users could share an alert about locations that are not safe to walk around.

  7. known speed trap

    I'd like to see a feature where kind of like the known speed camera where a permanent feature that could help out of towners pinpoint speed traps. Especially late at night in rural area this would be helpful as traffic is probably much less and is less likely to be reported.

  9. Option to Remove Speed Cameras on the Other Side of the Road

    I would like the option to Remove Speed Cameras on the Other Side of the Road. This should be a simple fix within the settings and would allow for less confusion when driving on a motorway. I’m often caught out by speed cameras and slowing right down from the speed limit to well below it so there’s not chance of me being fined. However, I do this for all speed camera alerts even when they are on the other side of the road just to be safe. It would be so much more pleasant to disable other side of…

    The current speed, when connected to Apple CarPlay takes the speed from the vehicle and pads it by approx 11%.

  11. traffic alert in highway

    as a Waze user, I'd like to receive a voice traffic alert when traveling on a highway (at highway speeds) and the map shows traffic on the route. Also, I'd like to have the configuration option to enable or disable it.

  12. Conditional speed zone

    Where I am, and I'm sure many others, there are school and park zones that have different speeds for certain hours. It would be nice to have the ability to have speed zones that change according to the times.

  13. Common Route Change Alert.

    We all have a weekday routine driving to work in the morning and back home in the evening. Most times we do not turn on Waze since the rout does not change. When there are traffic problems in that common route, I'd like to receive an alert from Waze informing me to switch on and follow a faster route automatically.

  15. Send photo to report speed camera

    Normally when you report a speed camera, it just will send the position and type of camera to WME. It will help to waze editors if users can send a photo of the camera with the report. And also, add posibility to editors communicate with the user who reports to ask more information as a normal report.

  19. Current speed yellow when approaching turn too fast

    App displays speed colour to yellow on turns.

    In Australia we have advice sign posts "yellow triangle" that suggest
    a comfortable speed for a corner (on corners that are closer to hair-pin than straight).

    The route navigation current speed would show white (normal), yellow (over suggested speed) or Red (over legal speed limit)

    Some possibilities:
    - Waze servers auto assign "suggested speed" value based an approximation of centripetal force that considered angle between two segment "points" and ignores slope.
    - Waze editor allows a road to have an assigned "suggested speed" based on road signage suggestions (which…

  20. Road Colouring on Average Speed Check Zone

    When driving in an average speed check zone, Waze doesn’t say when you have left it - so can be driving for miles past the end.
    Can Waze change the colour or pattern of the road to show drivers when they are in the zone and not just passing the cameras.
