Six essential functions when using apps on mobile phones
Recommendations for the Waze app:
1. Add setting item: Speed adjustment is a slider from 0 to 15km/h to compensate for slower speed compared to reality due to gps latency
2. Change the current speeding warning threshold setting menu to a slider with values from -20km/h to 20km/h so that users can choose the appropriate warning threshold for each need.
3. Add voice speed warning sound option
4. Add option to Repeat overspeed warning: (Off, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 60 seconds…)
5. Increase the size of the speed indicator and speed limit to match mobifone navigation…6 votes -
BUG: Apple route direction "stack" on phone not updating during drive
When using Apple Carplay, the latest version is NOT updating the text direction "stack" seen on the phone while driving. Previous versions would remove the turns after they've been completed. The only way to get the stack updated is to toggle to road reports then toggle back to the directions on the phone.

Allow push notifications for hazards or police. I tend to lock my phone by habit and I don't find out about them until it's too late.

Forced Landscape mode
For use with a HUD display that displays as the orientation is on the phone. If it's in the portrait mode it will only fill portrait in the middle of the screen. If you turn the phone on it's side it fills the screen in the landscape mode but. If you have a forced landscape mode, you can orientate the phone in portrait but Waze would be in Landscape and display as landscape on the HUD screen. This would be great. Kind of like keeping it in the night mode instead of auto. Night mode works better with HUD…

Integrate Amazon Music app
Spotify is nicely integrated into the waze phone app. It would be nice to also add Amazon Music app for those that don't use Spotify.

Make Waze continue running in background untill it is turned off
I use my phone for more than just Waze when I'm driving. Waze does not consistently run in the background when I switch to control another app (even when I'm driving on the highway at 65 mph). I'd really like to see an option in settings to keep Waze active until I manually exit. Alternatively, how about an option that keeps Waze active as long as my phone is in the car dock?

Warning of approaching speed limit sign
We need to have a warning about approaching a speed limit change sign 550m ahead. Like the traffic camera warning ahead. This is very necessary so that drivers can proactively reduce speed from a distance. And the speed limit symbol can be optionally larger in size.

DANGER!: Deactivate messages such as calendar reminders which require the driver to fumble with the phone and thereby exposes him to danger!
DANGER!: While driving with Waze, messages such as calendar reminders, which require the driver to fumble with the phone in order to reactivate Waze, and thereby exposes him to danger while driving, need to be deactivated!

Use phone orientation to determine initial driving direction
Problem:
When starting navigation from a stationary position, Waze often assumes my car is facing the direction of the road segment, not my actual heading.
This leads to wrong initial instructions — for example, being told to “turn right” when in reality I need to make a U-turn first because I’m facing the opposite direction.Proposed Solution:
Use the phone’s built-in compass and orientation sensors to estimate the initial heading of the vehicle when navigation begins.
In most real-world cases, the phone is positioned facing the same direction as the car (mounted on the dashboard or windshield).

Abbility to report start & end of SPECS.
SPECS cameras operate as sets of two or more cameras installed along a fixed route that can be from 200 metres (660 feet) to 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) in length.[3] They work by using an automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system to record a vehicle's front number plate at each fixed camera site. As the distance is known between these sites, the average speed can be calculated by dividing this by the time taken to travel between two points.[4] The cameras use infrared photography, allowing them to operate both day and night.

Waze should not let other apps change “Play sounds via Bluetooth phone call”.
This screws up some vehicles interfacing with waze via their oem radios and oem phone controls. I want to use waze thru CarPlay but sounds ar3 lost and you cannot manually change setting back to phone controls.

Voice countdown to speed cameras (like radarbot)
It would be a massive benefit to have a countdown to speed cameras and the associated speed limit to be sounded very 50m or so when approaching any camera on route.
See Radarbot. Very useful but would be great in Waze.

Introduce the possibility of using the same account in different phones
The account management is REALLY disappointing... It is impossible to use an account in the same phone after reinstalling the APP, it is impossible to change the password, it is impossible to use the account in a different phone... The whole account management system is a disaster!

"Share" address to phone being used for navigation
When you are in the car using waze and need to change the address where you want to go, in case there is some one next to you, they could easily open the their waze app, search the address and share it to the phone being used for navigation.
