Send photo to report speed camera
Normally when you report a speed camera, it just will send the position and type of camera to WME. It will help to waze editors if users can send a photo of the camera with the report. And also, add posibility to editors communicate with the user who reports to ask more information as a normal report.

Separate the ability to show the posted speed limit from the speedometer.
Currently, the only way to see the posted speed limit, is to toggle on the speedometer. I’m a truck owner that keeps the speedometer toggled off, as the speed that is on my screen is 12 mph faster than I am actually driving. I don’t have the option to see the posted speed limit, because it is grayed out, unless you are “using” the speedometer.

Customise alert filtering
I am requesting for more user customisation on what alerts come through
I find the alerts useful however they can get very annoying when listening to music.
The 3 options you currently get are: all, alerts only, silence.
It would be great if I could select alerts for just speed cameras, police etc leaving out speeding & pothole alerts (example)

Speed bump feature
I would like to suggest adding feature where speed bumps can be added on routes since when driving at night in Dominican Republic they sometimes just show up and you’re not able to see them in time.

"Known for having speed traps"
There are some places, at least in Portugal, that are known for having speed traps occasionally, and, given there's no warning for those speed traps, it would be useful for newcomers

Average speed zone label covers up the speed limit
When you enter an average speed zone, the green bar on the left appears. Also a label appears at the bottom showing what distance the zone covers. Annoyingly this label covers up the current speed limit badge, so you can't see what the limit is until the label disappears or moves up far enough.

Road Colouring on Average Speed Check Zone
When driving in an average speed check zone, Waze doesn’t say when you have left it - so can be driving for miles past the end.
Can Waze change the colour or pattern of the road to show drivers when they are in the zone and not just passing the cameras.16 votes -
Sound Alert in LOCKED phone
I think Waze could enable an option to be able to keep warning (Radar, Hazards, Accident, Police, Heavy Traffic, etc) even when phone is LOCKED. When I lock my Android 4.3.1 it doesn't alert anything.
6 votesGreat news! This is now available in Waze for Android OS. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Alerts Stuck
When starting a new trip, the first alert that appears (speed camera, traffic light camera, railway crossing, etc.) remains fixed on the screen, and after going through this alert, the alert is not deleted, it does not refresh, it does not report a new alert. The first alert that appears stays permanently... it only goes away when starting a new trip... where the first new alert that appears is stuck again.

Common Route Change Alert.
We all have a weekday routine driving to work in the morning and back home in the evening. Most times we do not turn on Waze since the rout does not change. When there are traffic problems in that common route, I'd like to receive an alert from Waze informing me to switch on and follow a faster route automatically.

Speed limit notification
I would suggest adding the actual speed limit value notification when Waze reports there is a speed camera on your route.

Navigation visual alert
Usually we navigate without voice direction, and it is easy then to miss next exit on highway, for example..
A visual blinking alert about 15 sec before would be great.3 votes -
Roadworks alert
Could it please be considered that the audio alert on the map guidance for roadworks be amended.
Currently it says “Watch out, roadworks reported on the road ahead”
It’s pretty obvious it’s on the road, which is why they are called ROADworks. It’s not like there is an option to report pavement/footway works.
I would have thought the simplest audio alert would be “roadworks reported ahead”???

When you pop up a warning for a speed camera, don't cover the speed limit on screen
When the speed camera warning comes up, it stays there until you pass the speed camera. This is great, however the pop up banner also covers the speed limit, so you don't know how fast you should be going!
Be great if you can change the banner to show the limit or move the speed limit so it's not covered by the banner4 votes -
CarPlay speed not padded
The current speed, when connected to Apple CarPlay takes the speed from the vehicle and pads it by approx 11%.
Please either show gps speed or car speed provided by vehicle. Padding not required.
1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.
