Reducing the number of wrong route choices in Waze search
waze needs to add an option checkbox in case the rider encounters the wrong route choice while traveling the route indicated by the Waze search. Waze can determine the wrong route for removal. Deletion based on a large percentage of the number of checkboxes ticked by the rider.

simplified route share
The share feature is so nice to use. Only thing I would like to recommend is a quicker way of doing it. I get it, you have to open the messaging app to share the route you are on. Instead of tapping share, than messages than the contacts than hitting send, I'd like to add whatever contacts to a list, just tap once, maybe twice and share instead of all the hoops

Not there outside routing
We need an option to report "Not There" on incidents, even if it's not on the planned route. Now it's only possible when a popup comes up for the planned route. The "Not There" option should be present on any popup when clicking on an incident icon, even if it's on the other lane or outside the planned route, but within viewing distance.

Train locations in cities with grade crossings should be tracked and reportable as they make a route longer and not ideal.
Train positions of trains and rapid transit at grade crossings should be available in route calculation as they change an ideal route into a not ideal route, and user reports for train locations should be available.

Ability to declare a suggested route bad
Sometimes Waze suggests routes that are so bad as to be cringe worthy. It would be nice to to be able to report them for review.

Option for more than 1 stop along my route
I find the option to add stops on my route convenient for when I'm going on a long drive where I need to stop at a few places along the way, but it only allows me to add one extra stop. Why can I only add one? I'd appreciate being able to add at least 3 or 4 stops in one trip so I don't need to start a new route after each destination along the way (I've had to do that before and it's way too complicated). Can you please add an option to be able to add more…

Show All Alternate Route Information and Make It Easier to See and Select While Driving
When driving on a route, Waze lets you select alternate routes. However, there is not enough information given to make an informed choice.
Examples:
A) Waze may suggest a different freeway than the one you're currently on, but to get to that freeway you may be routed on side streets. You know that the traffic on the side streets is not accurately reported by Waze and are busy at that time of day and so you would avoid that route if you knew Waze would route you that way.B) Waze senses that traffic is getting worse…

I vote for the route in the center of the screen on android car audio
On android car radio the route is not in the center of the screen. Moreover - it is on the right side of the screen, at the maximum distance from the driver. It is very uncomfortable! Fix it please!

Ability to Select HOV Routes in Carplay
Right now, when checking different routes, you cannot select an HOV route in Carplay (they just do not show up). You can still select it in the iOS app, but for some reason the Carplay app won't accept the route when you select it from the app. It requires you to select a route on the Carplay app (which doesn't include the HOV routes).
The only workaround I found is to set the HOV route before you connect to Carplay, but if you update the route during the trip, it loses the HOV route ability unless you disconnect…

Distracted driver risk score route recommendation. Waze always picks the shortest route based on time
I routinely will disregard the Waze route recommendation and will take less traveled roads because I hate to have to rely on other drivers being always aware of their surroundings. I want Waze to recommend the less stressful route as an option. I trust my driving but I stress out with other drivers and will take side streets and leave the highway just to have a "safer" drive. I try to avoid backups on freeways as this contributes to the potential accident due to distracted drivers.

Give a vulnerable population route
Sometimes you’re navigating in an unfamiliar area and you don’t want the fastest, rather you want the most populated route. I’m thinking, if you’re with small children, or if you are black/LGBTQ/etc. in an inhospitable, mainstream culture area, women driving at night, etc.

no notification when route changes do not affect time
Please -- NO notification when route changes do not affect time! Took a 10+ hour trip the other day and for the first hour, the app kept "updating" the route though with NO change to the time of trip and kept letting me know about every 1-2 miles ... very very annoying! If time not changed, odds are changes in route aren't important to drivers!

Account for (sporting, concert) events along the route when calculating ETA for planned drives
If you need to be somewhere at a certain time, but there is a sporting event along the way, there will be a lot of event traffic just before & just after the event. Waze could account for this traffic when calculating a planned drive. Then, based on historic data for such an event, Waze could either plan a route that avoids the traffic or it could show the ETA so you could drive past the venue during the event. Alternatively, you could know how early before or how late after the event you should leave to avoid the huge…
