  2. Screen orientation lock + bigger buttons in motorcycle mode!

    Need Waze to add a screen orientation lock option in the map settings. This has been suggested for years in the community feedback chat, and has been ignored. It is now a safety issue when riding a motorcycle. Because of my bike's design, I can only mount the phone horizontally. Even when activating auto-rotate in my phone's settings, Waze will switch to vertical after tilting or when the screen goes off. Trying to use and see the map vertically while riding is dangerous, distracting, and wildly irritating when I hit the wrong button. I have nearly gotten into an accident…

  4. Adding Social Distancing reminder notification

    During this pandemic, I think it would be a really good move for Waze to add some sort of notification reminding users of the social distance recommendations such as wearing a mask, standing 6ft apart, and washing hands. I imagine this would look similar to the notification that pops up when the app is being used while the vehicle is in motion, reminding the driver about safe driving, except this notification should pop up right after the driver presses go. As Waze is used by many, I think this is a great way to take action and do your…

  5. Need to add a camera that detects motorcycle riders without helmet

    There are AI cameras that are issuing tickets for not wearing a helmet. This should be shown and more promptly when in motorcycle mode.

  6. Features

    by recc of Waze Customer Support, here's what I wrote to Ralph:

    Hi Ralph …

    ....

    I do have a few somethings else ….

    1)I need the directions to reference something I see out the window. I don’t care if the locals call it “Webster-Basin-Springs RD” …. what’s on the road sign is State 333 off of US 60 South west of Irvington, **. You’ll need google maps/apple maps to find this reference. Waze only shows the name which cannot be seen on the road.

    Waze CONSTANTLY uses a reference which is NOT on the roadway signs.

    2) Nuther complaint:…
