Reporting Feature / Report Editing
The ability to create or move an item you reported, e.g. police, accident, etc. after the fact.
Sometimes you happen upon an accident scene so suddenly you do not think immediately of reporting it on Waze. And it won't help to report it 1 km further. So I would like to be able to add the event and select the precise location after I left the area already. And the ability to drag the icon to a more precise location if I reported it a tad too late.
Also, if I am driving alone without a passenger to click the…

Have James Corden be the next new voice
James Corden would be a great voice over for the app. He's a superstar and super popular with multiple demographics.

Allow two planned trips as segments of a two day drive.
Currently, when I begin and the second planned drive's destination, Waze gets stuck in a loop showing the messages "Route too long. Recalculating with new arrival day." and "Please wait." It never stops nor allows me to set the second planned drive start (to the destination of the first planned drive). Allow setting start location of a (second/subsequent) planned drive.

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

Show speed limit ahead (e.g. 300 meters ahead) for economic driving
In order to allow economic driving one should be informed that a changing speed limit will come up long enough to be able to save fuel and save the environment. When there is a hint that you have to lower speed like 300 meters in advance you can just stop pushing gas, so car will just sail.

Allow a start/stop feature for hazzards/lane restrictions, traffic jams, etc.
When traveling through a construction area allow a start/stop point so others can choose atl. routes. This can also be for speed reductions, accident sites, etc.

Feature Request: Co-Drive Functionality
Every year, I go on vacation with my family and friends, and we always rely on the Waze app, which has been incredibly helpful for all of us.
I’d like to suggest a new feature that could enhance the experience for groups traveling in multiple cars: a Co-Drive functionality. The idea is to allow users who are part of the same travel group to see each other’s locations on the map during the trip. This would be especially useful if one vehicle makes an unplanned stop—at a gas station or store, for example—so the rest of the group can stay…

Add ferry as a driveable road type
Ferry is currently not an option for road type. Ferries are unique in that that may require you to stop, wait for the ferry and then board. For this reason a ferry should be differentiated from a regular street.

Travel planning
I would like to plan a route with an overnight stop, or at least figure out the halfway point on a route. Find distance between cities. Also, option to find gas, food, and rest stops along the way.

Hurricane Evacuation Routes
Example: I-95N slow moving parking lot (meaning stop and go bumper to bumper traffic) so show less congested routes north or state 20mph parking lot. Travel north or inland would be faster by staying off freeways.

Account for congestion of multiple lanes merging into one
When there is a junction with two highways and a small road, consider it a standstill traffic jam heading from any highway onto a small road. Because it's 4-6 lanes going into 1 lane - it will certainly slow traffic down to a halt.

Waze profile integration with website
Ability to sync browser with app - so you can manage icons, favorites, plan trips/multi leg routes before getting into the car. Much easier to plan with multiple browser windows open looking up destinations, locations.
Also, favorites folders/categorization so a road trip can be planned with one-time destinations that can be managed/deleted after the road trip has been completed.

Don't Record Client Tracks within Origin/Dest Zone
As a new wazer and getting into editing I noticed several "map problems" and new roads caused by entering/exiting parking lot or building structures.
Current work around is to add Parking POIs or add the parking lot roads as road type parking.
I believe this could be alleviated by simply not having Waze client record or "count" the GPS track within a set distance from Origin (time device first plugged in or new navigation started) and Destination (device turned off or navigation stopped)
I would recommend a distance of about 100 yards.
This should help cut down on the extra…

"Hazard on shoulder" menu should include "Road crew"
In Massachusetts, road/highway cleanup crews on are always accompanied by a state police or sheriff's van. I would like to report the location of a road crew without having to tag it as a "vehicle stopped on shoulder" or "police visible" because neither of these options is very accurate. Can a "road crew" option please be added to the "Hazard on shoulder" menu?

Police in Dublin, Ireland using Waze
Hi. Gardai (Police) in Dublin, Ireland have been using Waze and they unpin themselves at the location. I got multiple reports about it and I also witnessed such scenario nearby my home. I heard this is happening in other countries these days too. I would suggest changing the settings /requirements for "unpinning" the Police tags to be more strict.

Roadside assistance
Add an option for drivers to report they need roadside assistance and drivers on route will get a notification on the matter.
The assistance could be anything from help changing a tire or the need of jumper cables etc... I also think that a good incentive is to give waze points to drivers who stop and help...
Really think this is an easy to do update that will help people in need (the whole point of waze is a social navigation app...)13 votes -
Add option to set a destination as final destination in when adding a stop, not just the existing options of "Add a stop" and "New Drive"
Sometimes when running errands, I'm already driving to "A". But then I want to get directions on how to get from "A" to "B". With the current options of "Add a Stop" and "New Drive", I would have to "Stop", set directions to "B", and then add "A" as stop. This is very complicated and it would be much simpler if there was an option to simply add "B" as final destination while I'm already navigating to "A".

Notifications for Commuting times
It would be great if Waze could send out a notice when my commute dropped below a certain time.
I like to keep working until my commute drops to below 35 minutes. If I could get a push notification when that was the case (maybe I could designate the start point, end point and the relevant time frame), then I could stop checking the app every 20 minutes.
Thanks.
