Put the address that you are navigating to on the screen.
On occasion I have started driving to the wrong location because I accidentally hit something wrong. If I don’t know where I’m going, I might not catch the mistake right away. If the address was on the main screen I would see it and realize I had made an error.

Fix text size for Android car stereos. Currently on 1024x600 screen, text is impossibly small.
Seriously. It should be super simple to scale the UI based on screen resolution. Not sure why it can't happen.

When in landscape mode WARNINGS/REPORTS dropdown window cover current speed and maximum speed warning signs.
Why not move it to the right of the screen swapping it with the send a report button?14 votes -
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

native keyboard
Hi, I would much prefer to use symbian touch screen keypad to write text instead of Wazes key pad which is too small and awkward to use. An option could be added to allow people to choose what they would prefer to use like in the opera browser app.

Go button or the "ready to go" screen between different stretches with stop points
I was using a Waze on a two-way path. When it arrived at the end of the first stretch, the application soon began the journey for the second stretch. I suggest having a go button or the "ready to go" screen between different stretches with stop points. The app could expect me to have something to do before continuing travel. This function could be optionally configured to show or not in the settings.

Announce verbally route and delay changes
At the moment if the route changes then Waze makes a chirp sound. I would like it to actually say "Route Change" or perhaps "Route recalculated due to change in traffic conditions" and then "Arrival time is now 7.34 pm". Or "Traffic delay has increased/decreased by 5 minutes". These announcements should be capable of being enabled/disabled in settings to allow for different user preferences. Personally I don't like reading messages on the phone screen while I'm driving - I would rather messages be read out verbally so I don't have to look at the screen as much - safer!

More obnoxious speed limit warning
Sound when exceeding speed limit by set amount is a great option, but very easy to miss the warning. Instead of a short beep, Please add an option to select the sound, option to repeat sound until under set speed overage, and a flashing screen or other obnoxious ongoing visual warning. This would have saved me a ticket and be very beneficial as no other app does this.

Delayed reports
While you're driving, you haven't time to report. So it would be great if I can touch the screen to hold the real place where a report have to be placed. So you can complete the report when you stop.

You should add a flash screen alert. It will be more easier to see it. And the sound is not enaugh loud.

Real time updating of the driving reference. As for today, the information is static when showed on the screen where the driving refgathered
Real time updating of the driving reference. As for today, the information is static when showed on the screen where the driving references are gathered. It would be great if the distances could be updated in real time and not only be showed/updated every time one click on the driving reference bar.

Show and say the next action before the gps signal lost in tunel
I'm living in a country where lot of tunnel on the road. I all the time facing the problem where I have no time to change the lane at the exit of the tunnel, because the signal lost in the tunnel, and when the device lock the signal again there not enough time to take the action.
It would be nice to warn the user "you driving into the tunnel at the tunnel exit keep left" or something similar.
Yes I know I can see the next action when the gps signal lost but if I don't know how long…13 votes -

Message alerts settings
In the new version of Waze, when the phone is landscape, when a warning is shown (radar, stopped vehicle ...) it's appear on the top of the screen, avoiding the visualization of what is to come in the path. The suggestion is to allow set where to place these alerts. If the phone is in an horizontal position, would be more useful than alerts go out to the right or left of the screen covering part of the side and not the way to go.

Settings for types of alerts to allow
There are many types of alerts the Waze client can display as a layer on the map and/or pop up on your screen, sometimes both visual and audible. We would like to see an new Settings area added for the types of alerts we want to see and/or ignore and never have a notification appear or be heard.
The notifications should include at least, but not necessarily limited to:
Speed cams
Red light cams
Police (speed trap)
Road Hazards
Road segment speed condition
Traffic Jams
Chit Chat
Accident233 votesGreat news! For each type of report/alert you’re able to specify whether you’d like it do be displayed on the route. Accessed via Settings – Alerts&Reports – Reports. What’s more, you can choose area (e.g. 5 km around you) for which reports will be displayed on the map.

Sleep alert
Dimming screen at not noticeable rate over an period and turn to maximum screen brightness. Create a shock to user, remind user to stay awake.
Or simply voice alert to remind sleepy driver.
And make it an option to turn the feature off.
