Alert while not in navigation
It would be great that Waze can alert you even if you are not enter the route so if you just launch the app and start driving.
You won’t enter destination and selecting route if you’re driving to work every day but you still can get the ticket for speeding..3 votes -
דיווח שריפות
הוספת פיצ'ר לדיווח על שריפות (בשמורות טבע למשל, עבור מטיילים) . הפיצ' ר יעביר את הדיווח למכבי האש. רלוונטי לדיווח מהיר על מקרי הצתה, בלוני תבערה וכדומה. צמצום זמן התגובה של מכבי האש הוא בעל ערך עצום לצמצום נזקי השריפה.

Have voice use voice
I tried your product on my phone. I expected a voice telling me when to turn, as real applications do that. Instead, it gave me all sorts of useless noises. Why does that matter? I ride a motorcycle and I can't look at the phone while riding.
I've deleted the product from my phone. It's useless without voice direction.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion!
As you may already know, voice directions are available and functional in Waze.
It sounds like you experienced technical difficulties. We would be happy to assist. Please visit our help center – https://support.google.com/waze/ -
need to have other buttons added
Need a pause button. So if you do a side trip it isn't trying to get you back on the track every 15 seconds.
also would like a repeat last instruction button. Traveling down the road with radio on for 15 minutes. Then suddenly you hear the tail end of an instruction, but have no idea what the opening direction was.
in sum: 1 pause button and 1 repeat last instruction button.

Add options for Siri shortcuts
Apple provides very basic shortcuts for directions, but it would be great to see more Siri Shortcuts from Waze itself, such as add stops
30 votesGreat news! The feature to do shortcuts using Siri is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Commercial Routes WAZE
My husband needs a WAZE that will give him trucking routes that take into account low bridges and narrow roadways and direct him around these obstacles. Please make one soon!!!!!!
40 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

The motorway sign next to the junction information on my 11" car screen is tiny.. The blue box with the mway number is really hard to read
Everything easy to read except the name of the road when displayed on a turn off direction. Eg m25 when you see the turn junction cue... I can send a picture if you tell me where to share it

Tabitha Brown
PLEASE get Tabitha Brown to voice turn by turn directions. Her voice is beyond calming, reassuring, and peaceful. She’s an actress so it wouldn’t be difficult to find her. She’s on IG and TikTok @iamtabithabrown. You can find her on Facebook under her name. THIS WOULD BRING WOULD RESULT IN THOUSANDS, IF NOT, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of downloads.
P.S. if you need help finding things the culture would appreciate and get behind, bring me on board. I gave you Tabitha for free.

Mardi Gras parade routes and navigation
Waze should really start to incorporate New Orleans Mardi Gras parade routes into their suggested routes during Mardi Gras season.

Avoid express lanes
It would be nice to be able to turn off Express Lanes, with the same toggle switch as the "Avoid Toll Roads" option. I almost never have passengers in my car, and therefore cannot ever take the Express Lanes, but the app keeps directing me to them. Express Lanes also occasionally have different exiting options, so it can sometimes change your entire route and make you miss exits you needed to take.
147 votesGreat news! The option to disable HOV lanes is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Android Samsung galaxy note 3 multi window feature.
Would love to use it with other apps. This limits me to only use one app. With Google maps I can listen to YouTube or a music app while I see and hear directions. Thanks.

Directional Steps
Waze, is it possible to have the directional steps available on Android Auto. This is beneficial for future navigation turns on route and mapping.

Alternate Route
Very frustrating when Waze updates the route with a bunch of turns,including a few difficult left turns, and it results in a time savings of a minute or two. Sometimes it doesnt save any time at all. I suggest an option were you can choose a time savings minimum before waze will take you off your current route. For example I would prefer to stay on my current, more direct route, unless a time savings of 5 min is available then please change my route.

Stop routing traffic inappropriately
I am contacting everyone at Waze right now. Waze is causing problems.
Highway 17 from San Jose to Santa Cruz is notorious for its beach traffic. Waze directing traffic thought downtown Los Gatos and on to mountain side roads to avoid this.
STOP DOING THIS!
First of all this is causing horrendous gridlock in downtown Los Gatos. The town has put up signs telling Beach Traffic to stick to Highway 17. Drivers are ignoring this because Waze gives tells them they can cut thru Los Gatos. This is causing MASSIVE problems.
Second, DON'T direct people off Hwy 17 on to…

Location consistency
At one point I was driving and every 10 seconds the app showed me in a different location and going a different direction. (I was still on the same street going the same direction.) I ended up using a different navigation app. I dont know what caused the problem, so i dont have any thoughts on how to fix it.

Waze isn’t the same
Ever since like last year Waze was always amazing but recently after the last few updates the navigation has turned out to be as bad as Google Maps! Takes me down unnecessary roads, slow to tell me the next direction, takes longer to recalculate, has trouble finding my destination before I start driving...it’s just a mess. If Waze didn’t have all the alert features, I’d stop using the app 🙄 I really hope they fix all the issues. I love Waze but these issues are causing stress and wasted gas and time

Expand URL Scheme
I would like to see an expanded URL scheme that would allow the reporting of traffic, accidents, police, etc. from apps like Launch Center Pro.
I frequently forget to start Waze and don't remember until I come upon an event I would like to report to help other users. It is sometimes too late to report the event by the time I can find Waze and hit the appropriate button. A URL action that could be launched from Launch Center Pro would be very helpful to quickly report these events if Waze isn't launched. It would increase my reporting dramatically.
