Make it so that I can just see a map with my entire route to work with traffic issues, police, etc shown.
Why should the default be turn by turn to work? That actually doesn't make sense. If I tap on work, I should see the complete map to see what traffic looks like, not some voice telling me how to navigate a drive I have done most days for 10 years. This is in fact so obvious that I can't believe that's not the way it is already. If you do that one thing, I will start using the app every day, and it will be wonderful. For now I guess I will keep using google maps every day.

Please bring the reports around me back!
There are many many clients who use Waze not for navigation but for looking what is happening around me. As this feature is now gone, I do not see any value of Waze...

Automatic speed adjustment
I made a patent for an interface between the waze and the vehicle in order to adjust the speed according to the speed limit on public roads , thus enabling a more secure , peaceful direction and within the traffic rules , minimizing risk of fines for speeding, car accidents and contribute to a better fluidity of the road . This device can be enabled or disabled at the discretion of the driver or the possible and future traffic laws.

Waze update poorly displays street labels, even zoomed!
HELP! Waze update does not display street labels well in SF. Zooming in doesn't help. Now we must scroll far to the right or left to hunt for street name! Please fix!

Automaticly generated "Many accidents happened here" icon
Saving the "Acceident alert" history can be used to generate "This crossing had many acceidents - be carefull" icon. It can be just a "yellow/orange/red/purple" dot or /!\ sign on the map near the road.
I recomand that no more then 10 such icons will be shown on the map at the same time, and only along the path used.It is based on existing data, and no editing is needed.

Notificatiosn need to be posted earlier in time to compensate for people who drive 70-80 mph on highway. That equates to almost a half mile
I will constantly get notifications after I have encountered them. Police, object on road, pothole, etc. Your system needs to make the adjustment for highway speed vehicles. At 80mph a half mile can go by in the 20 seconds it may take to post a notification. That is more than the length of time you offer the notifications...

Add a warning alert for "danger area"
It would be very interesting to have an option button to add a warning alert for "danger zones", so users could share an alert about locations that are not safe to walk around.

Make Waze for car satnavs
It would be great if I could replace my cars inbuilt TomTom satnav with Waze.
It runs off Andrioid so hopefully shouldn't be that hard.

Differentiate entry and exit sounds
Please differentiate the sound for entering a danger area and existing. In the current version the sounds are the same and it necessitates looking at the screen to see what's happening.
If the "entering" sound were a rising tone and exiting were a falling tone this distraction to look at the screen would be avoided.4 votes -
Habitual Report Cancellers get banned from cancelling
Police and Photo Radar vans are using Waze to cancel Police/PR reports on the map as Wazers report them... I believe these habitual "cancellers", ie the people who only report things as "Not there" need to be blocked from reporting things as not there. I am sure your system can recognize people who only report things as not being there...

Don´t take for the average the motorcycle speed
In all the countries, are motorcycles drivers using waze, when there´s a lot of traffic, they go faster than the cars, I was thinking that the speed of the motorcycles don´t matter, for this important reason it doesn´t have to upload the speed to the waze servers.
When we open the app, it could be a question: are you usen a motorcycle? or a car?, or it could be a setting too.
The information that is upload for the motorcycle drivers are impacting to the ETA of the rest of the drivers!!!!!!!!!

Warning of Stone/Rock throwing along a certain route
Sadly in Israel this is a reality and a warning to avoid that route could save lives. Another hazard form option.

Bug: Chosen route changes to shortest route after stopping without warning
I've discovered that if I choose one of the alternate routes (if it is longer), and start navigating that route, if I go off the route and stop, say, for lunch, when I return to Waze it has rerouted to the default shortest route rather than the original alternate I had chosen. In one case I was unaware of this at first and it started taking me in the opposite direction in order to connect to what was (originally) the shortest route, but due to my current location was now a much longer route.
That or the "shortest route" default should always adjust itself based on the current location, rather than the location when navigation first began.

Caros
(escrevendo em português) , gostaria de sugerir que adotassem um modulo , CAMINHO SEGURO , digo isto porque este final de semana , mais um homicídio ocorreu por conta de indicação equivocada do GPS no Rio de janeiro , minha sugestão é vocês colocarem as áreas de risco em cores ressaltadas ou melhor que o sistema avisasse se tratar de área de risco e solicitasse a confirmação da rota , estes dados podem ser obtidos das estatísticas dos departamentos de policia ,ou das áreas de abrangência das comunidades mais perigosas e violentas , eu como carioca , NUNCA uso o GPS , para ir a determinados locais , porque via de regra o sistema me induz a passar por ruas ou caminhos perigosos e bastante conhecidos em especial na zona oeste do RJ ,

Warn me when the estimated time of my commute (by a certain route) is taking longer than usual.
I prefer not to take toll roads. They're expensive. So, if my commute by normal roads is approaching 30 minutes (which is how long I give myself to get to work), I want to know, so that I can leave with enough time to make it there without paying for the toll road.
