  1. Notify if place is closed when starting a route

    Google Maps will notify you when you begin a route if the place you are going to is closed. Can this function be added to Waze?

  3. Show the same traffic animation of the Waze App also on the Livemap

    Every time I watch the traffic around me on the Livemap I'm bothered by the traffic jam indication.

    In the app I like the animation which shows the direction of the traffic jam, the colours and also that the average speed is shown.

    In comparison to that the solution of the Livemap is fairly ugly in my opinion. There are just little lines that vanish from time to time with different zoom levels. They are very pale and have no glowing colours like it's displayed in the app.

    I'd like to see beautiful traffic jam animations within the Livemap.

  4. Police Alerts

    A police report should notify drivers when driving within a certain radius of the report and not just for drivers that are traveling in the direction of the report. This would be very beneficial on highways and eliminate the need to report police twice for both sides.

    To make this make sense, if you’re traveling southbound on a two-lane road and you make a police report, it will only alert the southbound traffic, not the northbound.

  5. One click navigation to Saved places after starting waze

    You start waze everyday and you everyday pick one of 5 routes.
    But you need 3-4 clicks to do so and after every step, you have to do 3-4 quick decision and reading. It takes you attention to waaay too long.

    Imagine new optional One click home screen:

    • no map on home page (but yes, there are button to show map)
    • precalculated routes to all of your saved places IS there
    • all routes with 3 best variants, your preffered way is highlighted and Allways Shown, major issues highlighted

    How it should be - sorry for not uploading picture:

    1) WORK…

  6. travel planning option

    I know I want to make a journey tomorrow. I have no idea how long it might take. Would love to be able to enter a start point and end point and get an idea of how long it would take if I was doing the journey now. Not exact or guaranteed for tomorrow, I know, but a good rough estimate.

  7. Notifications for Commuting times

    It would be great if Waze could send out a notice when my commute dropped below a certain time.

    I like to keep working until my commute drops to below 35 minutes. If I could get a push notification when that was the case (maybe I could designate the start point, end point and the relevant time frame), then I could stop checking the app every 20 minutes.

    Thanks.

  9. Hey, Waze. There seems to be a problem with IOS 9.1 on Iphone 5S for Version 4.0.1.1.

    When Bluetooth is connected to car, and the voice directions override the radio, after the voice direction, the radio remains overridden and the Iphone starts to play from the Itunes library rather than going back to the radio. This is a pretty annoying bug because you have to switch back to the radio on the car. This did not happen prior to IOS 9--it would automatically switch back to the radio when the instruction finished.

  10. Improvement needed

    I was checking out waze and I was really impressed... I felt like the waze experience was incomplete without a proper feedback. Hence I decided to give you guys a few suggestions on it: 1) Pls include downloading of maps of a certain area or preferably offline caching of Entire maps. 2) I noticed that initially the direction of the heading was wrong 4 out of 5 times, thus why not included an optional magnetic correction as it will definitely remove this error.

  12. Please let us have the option to show ONLY the speed limit sign.

    Please let us have the option to show ONLY the speed limit sign when using with an Android Auto car or stereo unit. Currently, it shows both or only the speedometer with the speed limit sign too small to see easily. When I first start up and I'm parked on a street that has a speed limit, the sign is nice and big. Once moving though, the speedometer shows up and the limit sign shrinks down to where it's hard to see.

  14. Melding start trajectcontrole staat over de huidige snelheid heen

    Bij het binnenrijden van het controle vak, krijg je een melding die precies over de huidig gereden snelheid heen geprojecteerd wordt. Ik zou op dat moment graag willen zien of ik niet te hard rijdt. Graag de melding een stukje opschuiven

  15. 'Wazers Around Me' and 'Reports'

    I like the idea of getting 'Wazers Around Me' and 'Reports' on 'start-up' of the app. However, it seems its the ONLY time this information is available. Is there a quick way of getting this info AFTER the app has been activated and in use?

  17. SPLIT: Directions on startup

    Where I drive, I often need to know which direction Waze wants me to go immediately; there's no long driveway or road that I have to travel no matter what.

  18. Advise of signals, radars, police... with Waze as backup with no direction typed

    I’ve created a shortcut that opens Waze automatically when it connects to my Apple Car.
    However, I’d like it to warn me about road hazards automatically while driving, without setting a destination or manually inputting anything — just running in the background.

  19. Automatic speed adjustment

    I made a patent for an interface between the waze and the vehicle in order to adjust the speed according to the speed limit on public roads , thus enabling a more secure , peaceful direction and within the traffic rules , minimizing risk of fines for speeding, car accidents and contribute to a better fluidity of the road . This device can be enabled or disabled at the discretion of the driver or the possible and future traffic laws.
