Navigation
Hello,
Would it be possible that when navigating, the overview of the route with arrow and all traffic jams and speed cameras etc, this arrow moves dynamically and shows how far away the arrow is from the construction site, speed camera or traffic jam? This works very well with the Sygic app. I think that this feature would help many drivers to get a better overview. Thank you4 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.

Disable message "Thanks You helped nearby Wazers"
I am getting the message "Thanks You helped nearby Wazers" after reporting an issue and am then unable to see the information at the bottom of the screen (including ETA and distance) until I restart the app. This started happening to me a couple weeks ago. Based on previous suggestions (some from over 10 years ago), you are supposed to be able to go into Settings - Notifications and "turn off Thanks Message" but that's no longer an option. I have turned off all push notifications in the settings, and that does not work, either. The only solution I have found is to no longer report issues. Please reinstate a method for dismissing or disabling the message or just don't display it.

Option to type custom planned arrival time
Would it be possible to add an arrival time that is off of the quarter hour? As strange as it sounds, I would like to know my departure time for a 3:05 pm arrival - for example. The estimated travel time can revert to being based on the closest (or ceiling/floor) quarter hour's prediction. But it would be helpful to have the alert be based on my actual time to leave.

Voice reply
We can report things like crashes or stopped vehicles but we can't reply to the "still there?" prompt. Even having the ability to confirm with voice after we had passed whatever it was would be nice

Lexus
It would be nice if the next turn instruction can be synced to work with the Lexus heads up display. The OE navigation has the next turn displayed in the cluster and the heads up display but Waze only has it in the cluster. I wonder if Waze can also be synced with the HUD like the OE navigation.

Please make the speed icon in the lower left corner larger with better contrasting colours. I find it difficult to read.

Prior to freeway off ramp indicate if it will be a left or rignt at the end of the off ramp.
If prior to entering a freeway off ramp if Waze would indicate which off ramp lane you needed to be in it would better prepare you for the exit. Currently Waze will indicate if it is to be a left or right turn at the end of the off ramp but if you are in the wrong lane, you might not be able to get into the proper lane at that point.

Police avoidance
Like when a jam ahead is getting worse, Waze should tell you “police reported ahead. Do you want to divert? (2 more minutes)”. This should be toggleable in the settings just like speed alert is

Please bring back the generic UK English voices. The new ones are dreadful.
The introduction of UK English voices with regional accents are dreadful. Please bring back the generic UK English male and female voices that were available previously.

Share route from car screen
Add a button on the car screen to share route with a pre-selected favorite contact.
I only share route with my wife, but I do this everyday. Currently I must start and share the route on my phone before Android Auto connects to the car wirelessly. A simple button to share to one contact using one app (eg: Whatsapp) would be very useful.

The app did not warn me of the Sheffield clean air zone but did warn me about the Bradford one. Could be an oversight
More comprehensive clean air zone warnings.
If one does enter a clean air zone then the app could send a link to pay it. That would be really helpful 👍🏻4 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.

Option to turn off alerts for speed cameras on regularly traveled roads
It is helpful to have speed camera alerts on roads you’re new to or rarely travel on.
However it’s disruptive when you get alerts for speed cameras you regularly pass while commuting.
Using basic pattern recognition software on regular routes drivers could be provided the option to turn off camera alerts for the specific route(s).

STREET NAMES SAY THEM ALL VOICES
Even the voices marked as street names included are not stating street names. If you want users this is critical. tired of missing turns because there are multiple options and the map is not detailed enough

EV charging stations that are mapped on GM should display charging details on Waze
At present, Waze doesn’t display critical EV charging information like charger type and power output for Google locations. Even when linking a Waze location to a Google location, these details aren’t automatically imported, as they are with opening hours. To provide accurate EV information on Waze, users are forced to manually input all relevant details for each charging station.

Drunk
Subject: Innovative Idea for Enhancing Road Safety- Reporting Drunk Drivers on Waze.
I propose adding a feature that allows users to report suspected drunk drivers directly through the app. Similar to how users can report hazards or police activity, a “Report Drunk Driver” button could alert nearby drivers of a potentially dangerous situation. This could help keep drivers safe by providing timely warnings and allow law enforcement to be notified for quicker intervention.
This feature could include:
• A Quick Reporting Option: Users could tap a button to report a suspected drunk driver, including the vehicle’s description and location.
• Real-Time Alerts: Waze could notify other drivers in the area to exercise caution, helping to prevent accidents.
• Integration with Law Enforcement: The information could be forwarded to local authorities for timely action, if necessary.I believe this feature aligns with Waze’s mission to improve road safety through community-based alerts, and it could be a game-changer for preventing accidents caused by impaired driving.

Hundred thousands of people are claustrophobic and don’t want to pass through tunnels or get stuck in one during a traffic jam.
