Navigation visual alert
Usually we navigate without voice direction, and it is easy then to miss next exit on highway, for example..
A visual blinking alert about 15 sec before would be great.2 votes -
Allow to add speed cameras directly in the map editor and/or change their type (speed/light)
Currently you cannot add a speed camera without reporting it on the spot with your app and then go approve it in the map editor.. This slows down the process if you are in the editor and see a camera is missing and don't want to drive there to add it.
Changing the type of existing ones could help correct mistakes when people report a wrong type of camera.7 votes -
Add Average Speed Display Next to Remaining Distance in Speed Camera Zones
I have a feature suggestion that could greatly enhance driver awareness and safety:
Please display the current average speed next to the remaining distance when driving in zones monitored by average speed cameras.Why this matters:
It helps drivers maintain the right pace throughout the entire zone. Reduces last-minute braking near the end of the zone. Makes the driving experience less stressful and more controlled.Other navigation apps are beginning to include similar features, and I believe Waze can do it even better.
If you find this helpful, please upvote so we can get this on Waze’s radar! 🙌
Thank…

Police Speed Check instead of Police
80% of my “Police” alerts that pop up are for people that have been pulled over, which is technically “Vehicle on Shoulder”. I end up reporting “not there” and then change it to Vehicle on Shoulder. I suggest changing Police and Police (Hidden) to Police Speed Check. This will eliminate the confusion of a speed check vs a car on the shoulder.

Showing the average speed on the trip
When a driver enters an average speed check zone, Waze could display both the legal speed limit and the driver’s current calculated average speed since entering the zone. Additionally, the app could show what the driver’s remaining average speed needs to be in order to stay compliant by the end of the zone.
Example:
“Average speed check zone — Limit: 90 km/h.
Current average: 95 km/h.
To stay compliant, reduce speed to 85 km/h.”2 votes -
Speed signs on WME
a) I usually place comments (in the form of points) next to the track at the exact spot where there is a maximum speed sign, indicating the content of the sign (example: 80km/h). This helps me remember potential speed change points. It would be useful to have a layer that activates a visible icon on the WME map to display these signs, without needing to open the comment box.

b) It would be wonderful if Waze used A.I. to scan Google Street View and capture all relevant traffic signs, marking them on the map for verification and subsequent handling…

Correct speed error
In case of a wrong speed limit, it used to be possible to correct it directly on Waze.
It is not available anymore. I guess there must be. Good reason I ignore.
Would the be a possibility to make it work again. As there are more and more wrong speed limit shown by waze1 vote -
Prohibited zone alert
It would be handy to add prohibited zone notification, like you are entering a exmilitary zone which is prohibited without permission. Or have this notification alert in the planning overview.
I set my destination in this zone without knowing is prohibited and waze has no problem to lead me there.
Thanks.
Best regards

Speed Limit & Notifications
It would be great if the App could tell you what the current speed limit is.
Also, if there was a way so that you can block out all notifications on your phone so as to not be distracted by texts, alarms, etc. while driving.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

Eliminate police speed check reporting in residential neighborhoods
Allow POAs, HOAs, and other residential communities to provide WAZE with information to create a geofence around the community that can restrict POLICE reporting. All other features could remain in place.
Our community is loaded with children and the money we spend on speed patrols is wasted through the ability to notify other speeders, through Waze, as to the whereabouts of the speed traps within neighborhoods! There is a major difference between speeding in residential neighborhoods vs highways and city streets. Think about how this could save children. Exclude residential neighborhoods.

Timing for Alert
Please kindly bring back timing for alert to auto disappear after the driver have passed the affected area. for the current version affecting most AA user, driver have to manually choose there or not there. having to remove the attention on the road to the screen while driving at 100km/h is extremely dangerous, especially just to choose there or not there option. if driver didn't make the choice, the alert will stuck on the screen for the rest of the drive, and no further alert will be given. using Samsung Galaxy 21 Ultra.

Change position of Alert Banner option
Have the option to move where alerts pop up. As it stands, alerts popping up at the bottom replacing the box where ETA is shown is incredibly annoying, especially when you're trying to either reroute or search something up. Let us pick where the alert pops up.
