Emphasize searching by business address during user onboarding.
As a volunteer editor, I deal with many URs that involve what the user perceives to be "incorrect" address navigation. I frequently find myself advising reporters to search by business name instead of address, because the business PP is generally more accurate than the HN. It would be great if this could be added to the tips that are shown to a new user when they first run the app. I think this would reduce user frustration because they likely expect navigation to the building like in GMaps when they enter an address. They don't realize they are being taken to a stop point on the named road that might seem inaccurate for a business in a shopping center removed from the main road.

Jurassic Park Vehicles!
I'm currently sporting the Ecto-1 vehicle, but what I really want is to cruise around in Jurassic Park vehicles. The Jeeps and Explorers are just so iconic. I also wouldn't mind having the option to be a big old T-Rex.

Remove or change the inbuilt browser in the App
Inbuilt browser in the application does not comply with the ‘family safety’ settings set for browsers and search engines on the phone. For example, adult content can be accessed via google through the Waze inbuilt browser by accessing googles website within it.

recent drives
So when I choose a saved favorite, it never appears under recent drives. It would be very helpful if it did because I constantly have to scroll through my favorites when looking for this recent drive. Please have all recent drives appear in recent drives, even if they are saved favorites! Love Waze! And thanks!

Report Blocked Lane by Voice
It would be an amazing addition to be able to say "Hey Google, Report Left/Center/Right Lane Blocked" rather than needing to use the on-screen controls as it poses a safety hazard.
I feel as if that would entice users to use the feature more; it's a very beneficial tool to have, allowing you to prepare for the lane chance before it's too late.
That may also help with traffic congestion when everyone is trying to merge into a single lane on interstates.4 votes -

Sidekicks
Allow to have sidekicks not give directions. I love hearing street names. Sidekicks can speak when no directions are given. Such as on long roads, when stopped, etc.

Being able to report closed roads when you are not at it
We need to be able to report closed roads when we are not staring at it or driving. I hate that I can only report closures when I'm there. If I know the road is closed I should be able to report that from a safe place or after the drive. I get that it needs to be verified, but it seems like we should be able to do that by linking state/county reports.

Scottish female voice
I like to use various spoken languages to improve my understanding of a dialect. The most difficult English to understand, for me, is Scottish — so I’m looking for that. Preferably in a nice female voice.

Electric Scooters
Add Electric Scooter support, so it suggests best paths considering the speed limit of your model , and the local laws like going on pedestrian only roads, might work very good with bikes and e-bikes navigation.
Micro-Mobility is going popular and we don't have a good navigator for it, yet.4 votes -
Waze on Volvo AAOS
I have a new 2025 Volvo XC60. I downloaded Waze from the Google Play store to the in-car system, logged on, and everything was fine. When I started the car the next day, it kept saying "could not connect" and told me to "refresh". After several attempts, I uninstalled the app, and then reinstalled it. Everything worked fine, until the next day when the same problem occurred. I uninstalled and then reinstalled the Waze app. Everything worked fine, until the next day. Considering Waze is owned by Google this problem should not be occurring! What can I (or more specifically YOU) do to fix this problem?!?!

Custom Waze Icon Bumper Stickers for Wazers
Subject: Marketing Idea: Custom Waze Icon Bumper Stickers for Wazers
Dear Waze Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I’m writing to share a fun and engaging marketing idea that I believe could greatly benefit both Waze and its community of users: offering Wazers their custom Waze icon as a physical bumper sticker.
The Concept:
Many of us take pride in our custom Waze icons, whether it's the default icon or one we’ve chosen to reflect our personality on the road. My suggestion is to send Wazers a free bumper sticker featuring their custom Waze icon, which they can proudly display on their vehicles. This would be a one-time free offer for each user, with additional stickers available for purchase.
Why This Would Be Effective:
1 Enhanced Brand Visibility: By encouraging users to display their Waze icon on their vehicles, you turn each user into a moving advertisement for Waze. This increases brand visibility on the road and sparks curiosity among non-users.
2 Community Engagement: Waze users would love the idea of seeing their custom icon not just on the app, but in the real world as well. It adds a fun, personal touch to the driving experience and reinforces the sense of community among Wazers.
3 Social Sharing Potential: When users receive their bumper stickers, they’re likely to share photos on social media, tagging Waze and spreading the word organically. This can lead to increased user engagement and attract new users.
4 Memorable Marketing: It’s a unique and memorable form of marketing that extends beyond digital. Users are more likely to have a positive association with Waze when they receive a tangible, fun item like a personalized bumper sticker.
Implementation:
• Free First Sticker: Each Waze user can receive one free bumper sticker with their custom Waze icon upon request. This can be easily integrated into the app, where users can opt-in and provide their mailing address.
• Additional Stickers: Users who want more stickers, or stickers with different icons, could purchase them through the app or a linked online store.
I believe this idea aligns perfectly with Waze’s fun, community-driven brand and would create a lasting impression with users. Plus, it’s a simple way to extend the Waze experience beyond the digital realm and into the physical world.
Thank you for considering this suggestion. I’d be thrilled to see this idea come to life and would be happy to discuss it further if needed.
Blessed regards,

Reduce the excessive frequency of too many warnings on the same stretch of road
Waze = Good morning.
I would kindly like to suggest an implementation of functions, regarding voice warnings, as they are truly TOO MANY and TOO FREQUENT on the same stretch of road! Very repetitive indeed, and so distracting!
In fact, constantly hearing the voice assistant that in a verbose way warns you every 200 meters, instead of just once, or at most twice, no longer makes you pay attention to any turns or changes.We couldn't even talk to each other in the car anymore, with that continuous non-stop voice every two minutes! I had to disable them completely and proceed by sight, thus losing the fundamental function of the navigator!
I therefore suggest including the possibility of DECREASING THE FREQUENCY of alerts, without completely excluding the assistance item.
Thank you.

North Up only in 2D
When the Map is set to Auto (2D and 3D) with North Up preference set, please only show the 2D map in North Up. As a 3D map also being North Up doesn't make sense since it hides almost all upcoming map content unless driving due north (car traveling sideways to map view). North Up is only useful in 2D maps.
Thanks

אין אפשרות לבחור סוג רכב משאית
אני מכיר מקרה של נהג משאית שווייז הוביל אותו דרך רחוב צר שגם היה בו גשר יחסית נמוך למשאית. מיותר לציין שהנהג נתקע לפרק זמן ארוך וגרם לפקק תנועה אחריו עד שהצליח להיחלץ. אולי כדאי לשקול את עניין המשאית גם אורך וגם גובה בהגדרות ההרשמה לאפליקציה.

One touch Highway/No Highway route recalculation
so that I can check and see if the highways are doing worse than the side streets, it would be great to have a one touch button after the routes are calculated to switch to no highway, let the routes recalculate and then if I want to switch back to highway
