Thank 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.

Red light & speed camera warnings do not go away.
Recently, red light and speed camera warnings do not go away unless I close and restart the app. These warnings cover destination time and prevent access to other menus.

Display actual GPS speed and not car’s info
When connected to CarPlay the speed on the supposedly gps speed in Waze always shows a 1km/h difference compared to that on the speedometer (at least in my case)
When NOT connected to CarPlay the difference is larger. At 90 km/h on the speedometer the speed in Waze is 85 km/h and at 140 the speed on Waze is 130. (Actual GPS speed)
When connecting to CarPlay a message says that the phone will use selected data from the car and this includes the car’s speed. However, this value is not accurate.

I like to see more options regarding speed cam
I like to see more options reg speed cameras. Such as opt "other side" or "lazer speed cam" etc
1 voteThank you for your suggestion!
This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being. Adding more and more options to reporting, especially for less popular types of reports such as other side which will also require another window/card, is not something we are aiming for at the moment. Please be aware that other side reporting is already available by voice using the Google Assistant! We believe investing in voice can create essentially a better and more scalable experience and we hope to bring it to more languages soon.
Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram. -
Route by average speed
Sometimes the app suggests a route with a shorter total time, but with a much greater distance than the other options. For example: 5 minutes less with 10km more. Therefore, I suggest showing the average speed (Distance/Time) of each option.

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.

I suggest that you add speed reduction warning to your icons for hazards.
On motorways when there is a speed reduction sign it would stop people braking heavily if they’re aware it’s coming up.

Option to turn off alerts for speed cameras on regularly traveled roads
It is helpful to have speed camera alerts on roads you’re new to or rarely travel on.
However it’s disruptive when you get alerts for speed cameras you regularly pass while commuting.
Using basic pattern recognition software on regular routes drivers could be provided the option to turn off camera alerts for the specific route(s).

Allow user to adjust the speed of audio/TTS annoucements (0.5x, 0.8x, 1x, 1.5x, 2x)
Spotify and YouTube allow users to control the speed of audios or videos.
You can play audios or videos at speeds of 0.5x, 0.8x, 1x, 1.5x, 2x and 3x.
I suggest the same should apply to Waze.
Audio or TTS announcements could be faster or slower depending on the user's preferences.

speed camera alert closer to the speed camera
the alert is happening 400m from the camera, sometimes there is an intersection before the camera that you may stop at and by the time you get going again you may of forgotten about the camera. listening to the news or music may distract from the warning, when you finally get that 400m down the road. a second alert 50m from the camera, speeding or not, would be greatly appreciated.

SPLIT: I don’t like that others can see my speed
I don’t like that others can see my speed if I use that part of the app so I can watch my speed. Can authorities access that info ever??? Because I do speed sometimes and I don’t want others seeing or recording my speed...

Please can you make the Red circled speed limit the same size as the Current vehicles speed sign as the red circled one I find too small.

Maximal speed setting for each type of road
My employer wants me to respect the below maximal speed :
- 110 km/h when limited to 130 km/h,
- 100 km/h when limited to 110 km/h,
- 80 km/h on bidirectionnal road limited to 90km/h.
I would like to be able to define these parameters in order to optimize my route.4 votes -

Allow users to suggest speed limit corrections
Currently, speed limits on the map can only be updated by map editors. This process is slow, especially when the main source of information, like Google Street View, is outdated. This leads to inaccurate speed limits or missing data on many road segments.
This suggestion is to add a new reporting option that allows any user to suggest a correction to the speed limit. This would not directly change the speed limit on the map, but it would create a "pending edit" for map editors to review and approve.
How it would work:
A new "Map Issue" report could be…1 vote -
Past Reports of Mobile Speed Cameras Alert
With the recent addition of giving an alert to the user when a certain area has a "History of Accidents". Something similar should be done with mobile speed cameras where an alert comes up stating that the certain area that the user has entered has had previous reports of mobile speed cameras vans. I dont just mean being able to report Mobile Speed Cameras, as that already exists. I'm talking about an alert popping up as there has been numerous reports, can be from the day before to a month before.

During radar warning speed limit is not visible
During radar warning the "current speedlimit" is shifted above and disappears under the "next direction change information". Then you can not see the speed you are actually driving during the speed control, this please needs improvement.

Country-Specific Speed Limit Sign with Symbol for Variable Limits
Country-Specific Speed Limit Sign with Symbol for Variable Limits
Problem
Waze’s static database cannot display real-time variable speed limits (VSLs) on roads like Israel’s Highway 20 (Ayalon), Switzerland’s A1, Germany’s A3, Austria’s A1, the UK’s M25, the USA’s I-95, Canada’s Highway 401, Australia’s M1, and India’s Delhi expressways. Fixed speed limits (e.g., 120 km/h or 60 km/h) can mislead drivers, risking speeding tickets or accidents, especially on long stretches without repeater signs. Showing no limit confuses users and suggests unedited segments. This issue frustrates Waze communities in the UK, USA, India, Canada, and beyond, demanding a smarter solution.Current…
