Resolve GPRS/EDGE connectivity issue
Wifi works great, but when I am on road or trying to connect via GPRS, Waze rarely connects. On the web and on the Waze forums itself this issues is litterred numerous times, with various people discovering different ways which made it work for them. None of them, unfortunately worked for me. This means that on road, I have no Waze connectivity for updates. Bad. This should be a critical issue to be put on top priority.

Have client present auto-off if removed from charging
I sometimes make frequent stops during a trip, and it is an annoyance to have to start and stop the client so that it doesn't give false heavy traffic reports. If I am in the car, I always have the phone on a charger. if the client senses that the phone is no longer charging, have a pop-up box ask if the application should be turned off.

Ir agora
Interface confusa e com cliques em excesso. Ao selecionar um destino e clicar em "Ir agora", o aplicativo não inicia a rota de primeira e exige clicar no mesmo botão "Ir agora" uma segunda vez. É um passo desnecessário que atrapalha a usabilidade antes de dirigir. Deveria iniciar a navegação logo no primeiro clique.

Custom Map Themes/Skins (Game HUD Style like GTA, Need For Speed, Cyberpunk)
While Waze already offers custom voices and moods, the navigation map layout itself remains largely the same. It would be awesome to introduce customizable map themes/skins inspired by classic gaming HUDs (e.g., retro arcade minimaps, NFS-style night/neon aesthetics, or GTA-inspired map palettes).
Why this would be great for Waze:
Deeper Immersion: Custom UI themes go beyond just changing the car icon or voice, offering a fresh visual experience.
Great for Marketing Partnerships: Waze could collaborate with game publishers for temporary promotional themes during major game launches.
Fully Optional & Safe: These themes could function similarly to Dark Mode (a color and icon palette swap), maintaining high contrast, route clarity, and road safety without cluttering the screen.
Even generic style options (like "Synthwave/Neon", "Retro Arcade", or "Minimalist Dark") would make daily commuting much more fun and unique.

Compass carplay
Add the simple compass to the display in CarPlay. My car does not have a built in compass, but does have its own GPS that does show it, but I prefer to use Waze. It would be nice to have the compass in Waze.

Toll monitoring columns in Germany
In Waze, the blue toll monitoring columns commonly used in Germany are regularly and incorrectly marked as speed cameras. It might be a good idea to introduce a separate marker for toll monitoring columns so that users are not mistakenly warned about a speed camera.

Bring back "Reports Ahead" on Android Auto
Bring back "Reports Ahead" on Android Auto. Latest update removed option to see the list of Reports Ahead. Seeing these is critical when you are route planning. Especially on the fly when there is traffic, closed roads, accidents, etc. Specifically in Subarus but I'm guessing other auto brands too.

Add a detailed preview for roundabouts
I saw this feature in some map app online, so when heading to a roundabout, just like what waze does, a popup will show on the top of the screen and showing a simple symbol to tell which exit we should take. What about having a detailed preview showing a birdseye view on the roundabout and showing the exact route i.e. what lane and exit show take instead of simple symbol and exit name?

Marco quilométrico em Rodovias (Kilometer Marker on Highways)
Through WME, editors manually added a pin at the corresponding kilometer marker on a highway. Clicking on this pin would provide the following fields to fill in: Highway, Kilometer, Direction. Up to two highways could be added to each pin, with the "Direction" field being optional and the other two mandatory.
In the application, when driving on the highway, in addition to the highway emblem (which is already visible), the respective kilometer marker of the main highway added to the WME kilometer marker would also appear next to it. Thus, when driving on highways, we would visually know which kilometer marker we were at. These kilometers would also be searchable using the application's search field as a destination option (Example: BR 116 - Km 555).
(Portuguese)
Através do WME os editores adicionavam manualmente um pino no Km correspondente em uma rodovia. Ao clicar nesse pino, teríamos os seguintes campos de preenchimento: Rodovia, Quilômetro, Direção. Poderíamos adicionar até duas rodovias em cada pino, sendo o campo "Direção" com preenchimento opcional e os outros dois obrigatórios.
No aplicativo ao trafegar pela rodovia, além de aparecer o escudo rodoviário (Que já é visível atualmente), ao lado dele também apareceria o respectivo quilômetro da rodovia principal adicionado ao pino do km do WME. Assim ao trafegar em rodovias saberíamos visualmente qual quilômetro estamos. Esses quilômetros também seriam pesquisáveis pelo campo de busca do aplicativo como opção de destino (Exemplo: BR 116 - Km 555).Through WME, editors manually added a pin at the corresponding kilometer marker on a highway.

Get Joe Arden to do the voice narration for navigation.
I am a member of Joe's social media and he said in front of a couple hundred people on a live that he would love to do the live narration for your platform he has a huge following and is incredible and he would probably bring all the users to Waze to hear him tell them what to do on the road.

In-app segment appearance for Unpaved / Pedestrian segments
As of now, different segment types almost all look identical in Waze. Offroad / unmaintained already have has its own look, so it would seem logical to get a visual differentiation for pedestrian segments and unpaved roads.
- Unpaved roads could get a "speckled" or '"hashed" look (https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-waze-suggestion-box/suggestions/46149703-show-unpaved-roads-differently-in-app).
- Pedestrian segments could look just like on the live map.
