First, I want to tell you that I absolutelly love your app, it is my favorite app of all and I am truly a Waze ambassador (I have around 20 friends that are now using Waze due to me and over 10 friends that are using it havilly, due to my advice).
I received your message and I have a couple of questions:

- Why my scoreboard is now 0?
- How can I get back my reporting privs and my…

Hello, please add option 'Emission level' so waze will be able to calculate route due to EU standardat ( example - Euro 4)
Hello,most of countries now began now to restrict cars with high pollution emissions in big cities so i would say its compulsory to make waze able to calculate route compared to user cars emission level ! In this way of ideas everyone who owe old cars ( for example Euro 3) will not enter in cities where car can not meet emissions standars, hope i was clear ! Please add in future option : Car Emission level ! Thanks

Can you add a Dog catcher/off leash warning locator thingy..:)
I live in a "dog friendly" neighborhood where everyone generally has pretty well behaved dogs that run around and play with each other.. even though our neighborhood is fairly isolated we still get the occasional dreaded white city van that likes to give out $125 off leash tickets to people.. can you add a icon different than the police.. (our local officer comes over and plays catch with the dogs occasionally) so we can pass the word to leash up our dogs. thanks

Event report icon should not open a menu when car is moving; menu would open after car stops. This would reduce risk of accidents
When driving, it is hard to make an event report, since we need about 3 clicks and reading information on screen.
I suggest that, when the car is moving, clicking the event report icon doesn't open a menu. Waze memorizes current position for later report details.
When the car stops, voice guidance would ask "do you want to report what happened back there?" - then the report menu would open.
This would help the driver to keep attention on the road.
If driver feels comfortable with filling reports while driving, this could be changed on settings screen. However, I believe…

Spotify
Currently the Spotify panel is occupying almost 1/3 of the whole screen, obscuring the space much needed for map and navigation. I'd like to see simpler/shorter control, perhaos similar to the Spotify 4x1 widget on Android. Thanks
4 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, Waze is now integrated with several audio apps including Spotify, Deezer, TuneIn, iHeart Radio, Pandora and more. Just go to Settings > Audio Player and pick your favorite app.

2 steps ahead, show me what will be next
I wold like to know what kind turn will be after turn, basically it is will be great to know 2 steps ahead: for example "after 1000 feet turn left, than after 1 mile turn right", now it is happens only with the closes turns to each other's, and I every time on the red traffic light for example scrolling map , because I want to know what will be next. Even not by voice, but you can easily show the next step on the top (second turning arrow), best navigation systems show 2 steps ahead - it is very…

Hazard Alert - Animal on Road
Could there please be some sort of function within Waze that could give the user the opportunity to report deceased animals along the road so that the competent entities could come and collect them? Or even for pets that were just run down for a vet to come or something? Could it be connected to automatically give the competent entities the location of the animal? It’s a win-win for everyone and it keeps our road safe. Also, for objects on the road, while I’m not sure what entity would be responsible for removing them, somehow also connect to the responsible…

Please fix the new version of Waze!
The new version is ridciously bad. It is impossible to see the icons while driving. I am young with good vision and it it is unusable. Hopefully, an update is in the works that allows a rollback to the previous version or at least the option to make the icons bigger.
Another problem is that in the new version, when you zoom out all of the icons simply disappear. This does not allow you see what lies ahead on your path.
Please fix the issues with the new vrsion. Why did you fix problems that did not exist?

Implement user-configurable delay (in increments of 0.1 sec) for voice alerts
Some vehicle Bluetooth implementations have lengthy handshaking which prevents the first second or two of Waze voice alerts from actually being heard. My car has a feature that ramps up the volume of a Bluetooth phone incrementally on first connection. However, the impact is that in most driving situations, the first two seconds are simply too quiet to be heard!
For example, instead of "In 500 metres, turn right onto Main Street.", all you hear is ".. to Main Street". Obviously, this information is unclear and confusing, forcing the driver to glance at the map on the phone to verify…

Waze widget
Today for the firsrt time i installed the waze widget. I liked but it seemed very simple. I think that the ETA shown was if I took TOLL roads bit when I touched "Drive" it took me to the non-TOLL road (which was the one I wanted but then the ETA was much longer) So I had one Idea but I need to show it. How can attach a picture to this post? But in other words it would nice to have the ETAs for TOLL roads and non-TOLL roads. Let me know if i can send a picture. I…

show public transportation routes
We're in a climate crisis and everybody should drive less when there are alternatives available.
Waze should help with that by suggesting Public Transportation or bicycle routes when selecting a destination, when those routes are viable alternatives (don't bother showing a 3h bus route for a 10 min drive).
This could be similar to Google Maps and use the same data.
Just by showing that there are alternatives, the user might be tempted to try them.
This might be specially useful when driving in cities that have car restrictions, dedicated bus lanes or good bicycle infrastructure that rivals congestion, where…9 votes -

Schedule - Calendar
a good function is that waze is programmed with the phone's calendar that is synchronized with Gmail account so send alerts according to the state of traffic to achieve compliance with arrival times for example if I have an appointment at 3 : 00 pm that waze alert me 10 minutes apart what time I go to achieve compliance with the time, another example, if income from work at 8:00 am and I have programmed in the list of fixtures the application sends an alert to inform what time I need to leave my house to be on time.

Ads in Complex Intersections
Stop showing ads as I come into an intersection and NEED to see what turn is after the intersection. Same thing with the carpool ad. After I tell you 100 times I can't carpool, stop blocking my turns with useless ads that only annoy.
Thank you.

Accident icon
Accident icon is not easily recognizable in version 3.6 specially while you are driving and only take a glance in the phone's screen. New icon is pretty similar to traffic jam reports. I think it could be redesigned as a overturned car, or adopt the design used in older versions.
