Add road closures that happen at specific times
For example, there’s a road on one of my regular routes that is currently undergoing construction and it’s a 2 lane highway so in order to work on it properly without traffic interference, they close the road between the hours of 10pm-5am Mon-fri. I noticed there is no option to report closures with a specific time frame which kind of sucks. I think it would be beneficial to add this feature as I know of quite a few other roads or ramps that close only at specific times.

add a language
Bonjour,
En tant qu'utilisateur de Waze sur mon mobile, j'ai remarqué que Waze offre en option de nombreuses langues afin d'être au plus près des usagers.
Etant locuteur de gallo (langue romane de la Haute-Bretagne), j'aimerais y ajouter cette langue.
Je suis membre de l'Académie du Gallo, je peux donc prendre part à la traduction. Quant au support audio, j'ai des contacts avec un studio d'enregistrement.
Si intéressé, pouvez-vous me mettre en rapport avec les services concernés.
En vous remerciant et en vous souhaitant une bonne journée.5 votes -

The option of choice of seeing all the street names in the navigation. I find it confusing because the nameflags interfere with the roadmap.

Current speed yellow when approaching turn too fast
App displays speed colour to yellow on turns.
In Australia we have advice sign posts "yellow triangle" that suggest
a comfortable speed for a corner (on corners that are closer to hair-pin than straight).The route navigation current speed would show white (normal), yellow (over suggested speed) or Red (over legal speed limit)
Some possibilities:
- Waze servers auto assign "suggested speed" value based an approximation of centripetal force that considered angle between two segment "points" and ignores slope.
- Waze editor allows a road to have an assigned "suggested speed" based on road signage suggestions (which take into consideration average user comfort, slope, turn angle.Benefits:
- Route calculation calculates based on suggested speed, resulting in increased accuracy of route recommendations.
- road segments where its not comfortable for average drivers to drive at the legal limit (due to all sorts of speed slowing features: Speed humps, one car only chicane, potholes, Drain dips, pedestrian shared roads, weather affected roads [snow, heavy rain, sand], steep descent, narrow roads, narrow dual carriage bridges)App displays speed colour to yellow on turns.

Add Dam/Lake percentage on the water
When you drive next to a dam/lake, add a % of how full the dam/lake is. This will be a cool feature in South Africa as we are living in a country with very little water.
Maybe use the following link to add the levels

In French, there are accents on some letters. When an accented letter is at the beginning of a sentence or a proper name, it is capitalized.
In French, there are accents on some letters.
When an accented letter is at the beginning of a sentence or a proper name, it is capitalized. With or without an accent, depending on usage. Normally, the emphasis is on the uppercase, however some speakers do not put it.
When searching for an address, Waze searches for the exact word and makes suggestions, ignoring capital letters without accents when there is one in lowercase.
Many users search in lowercase, while the names of the tracks include uppercase letters, which distorts the results.
Example: "Rue des Ecoles" will not be proposed for a "rue des écoles" street.I suggest that the research does not take accents into account.

horizontal screen error
Hello, I usually have waze on the screen without setting the route, but in the latest versions if you use it in horizontal mode the search bar is not hidden, and it occupies a quarter of the screen, before with a double tap on the screen if it was hidden, please re-implement this option.
Greetings.

In the light of the bicycle lanjak case, where 8 people were killed, and driver being sentenced to 6 yrs jail, I wish to suggest that waze i
Please provide a feature to detect mat rempits and bicycle lanjaks, so that drivers receive early warnings , and decide alternative routes or take extra precautions. If Waze can now detect and report accidents and police presence a few km away along the route, why not do that for the above. It will save lives n unnecessary jail time for innocent drivers

two improvement ideas
I have recently switched from Garmin to Waze.
It is clear that Waze kicks Garmin's butt.
Two suggestions though:1) One thing I used Garmin a lot for was to tell me the current speed limit. It has it in very legible text that I can take a quick glance at to see. Unfortunately, the text on the waze app is too small for me to easily see with a quick glance. Ideally, this text should be enlarged.
2) I am admittedly used to Garmin's voice timing, but the waze timing for turns was a problem for me. It seems that Garmin would tell me three times -- turn left in 1/2 mile -- turn left ahead. The last "turn now" warning was sufficiently ahead of the actual turn that I could see the turn and make it. The final Waze warning is too close to the turn -- I went by several turns because I practically would have had to slam on the brakes to make that turn.
Again, I was very pleased with the waze app! However, as good as it is, fixing these two items would make it even better. Thanks for having this suggestion box so I could pass along my inputs...

Show Waze result when searching full road name
Currently if you search the full road suffix instead of the abbreviated one (e.g. Street instead of St, or Road instead of Rd) it will only show Google results and not Waze ones since the roads names are abbreviated when mapped. This can lead to the Wazer not finding roads if they are not mapped in Google Maps or being routed poorly.
Waze should instead recognise the full name of an abbreviated name and continue to show Waze results.
