Highway turn arounds on Map
There are "turn arounds" on highways for authorized vehicles and many police sit there. My GPS shows these turn arounds but Waze does not. I can't use Waze as a GPS replacement because this is extremely valuable information. If the police are using instant on radar or lidar there are times when just knowing these are ahead is invaluable. Saved me more than a few times. It is the only thing the Maps are missing.

New Functions for Linking External Provider Locations (Google Pin)
In the past, the WME PIE Script provided a valuable feature that allowed us to directly view the exact location of a place on Google Maps overlaid on the Waze map. Recently, this functionality was removed at Waze's request.
Most editors, including myself, consider this feature essential. Taking this opportunity, I suggest we request improvements to this linking tool. Below are some current issues and proposed solutions:
Issue 1:
Currently, WME allows the same CID to be added multiple times to the same place. This creates disorganization in the links.Solution 1:
Block duplicate additions of the same place. In…133 votes -
Disable/option iPhone touch-rotating map
When navigating with my iPhone I usually want to zoom in and out using the pinch movement as most apps use, but half the time trigger the touch to rotate map feature, which I never really need to use.
My suggestion: Disable this (the map will still rotate when you are heading in a certain direction, which is all anyone should need it to do) or at least have an option to turn it off.

Walk/Biking Navigating Options
Please add the option to walk and bike to your destination like maps does. If I’m walking to my destination instead of driving I’d like to know how long it’ll take instead of adding another app like maps to search. Thank you.

Report map issues on CarPlay screen
When hitting report on the CarPlay screen, Map Issue isn't one of the options. If there is a map issue you cannot even do it from the phone since the display is different. You have to quickly unplug the phone from the car so Waze goes into normal phone mode, and do it from there. That is too much of a dangerous distraction messing around whit phone cables and the phone. Everything in the app should be easily accessible on the car play screen. For transcribing the map issue you can use voice to text, exactly how the iPhone works…

toll prices in live map
On the web based live map, be able to see toll prices if the route provided has toll (and the toll pricing information is available already through the app)
26 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Police Heat Map
What about a feature that shows popular police trap locations. There are locations in my town that are popular with police to setup speed traps. If those areas could glow blue like traffic areas glow red, I think that could be a great feature. If you could use the information that wazers report, then that info could be processed through an algorithm that show the high probability areas.

Add more stops would be nice
There is no option to add multiple stops, it would be really nice to have this feature on my navigation. In this way, I won't need to switch to other maps app

Voice navigation instructions based on traffic lights and stop signs.
Apple Maps would say “At the next light turn left” or “At the stop sign turn right” or “Go past this light, and at the next one, turn left” which is very useful and helps me make turns at the right intersection, especially if two streets are close to each other.

Display tunnels as hashed/broken lines
Tunnels should be displayed on the Waze client as hashed or broken lines.
Currently, tunnels are displayed on maps almost the same way as roads. This is confusing as you are not exactly sure when to turn, as Waze makes it look like there is another road to pass before you turn. If tunnels were shown to be dramatically different to roads, it would make the navigation experience better for all users.

When gps signal is offline, automaticallly switch to a list of the 10 next steps, and the possibility to check them
When GPS signal is lost, especially when in tunnels for like 10 kilometers (like in Paris La Défense highway) currently there is some issues that could be better dealt with I think :
- GPS is stuck on only the next itinerary change when signal is lost. So if you ride for 10 kilometers in a tunnel and the next change is in 4, you don't know what to do after that.
- Arrival time gets delayed as long as signal is lost.I think it would be better, when GPS signal is lost for more than X seconds, to…

Return the displaying of FB friends on a map in app.
Most users are interested in where their friends are, not unknown people. Need to make FB friends be visible on the map all the time, not just when they are within 1 km. There is an invisible button for Confidentiality to compliance in the application.

Make alternative routes tappable directly on the map like GMaps.
Hoping for tappable alternative routes on the map, which also shows time difference from the suggested route. This was a feature I liked a lot in GMaps.

View map on mobile to select point on map, law enforcement
Similar to Google Maps interface, in which I can pin a point on the mobile app and start navigation on Android Auto. I frequently use Waze to safely navigate to reported accidents, debris and disabled vehicles. Waze reports are significantly more location-accurate than my dispatcher saying "Respond to the area of Exit 45 for a crash." Before the last update, I could force stop Waze on my phone, reopen the app to the map, pin a location next to the incident and start navigation, then reopen the app on Android Auto to navigate. With the latest update, I can no…
3 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Please check this link, to learn more on how to navigate from a different start point.
Hope you like it!

Banner At Top of Screen
It would be nice to have a banner at the top of the screen to make getting back to the Waze app easier. Google Maps does this.
