אירוע חירום - חיפוש מקלט כמסלול חדש
היי
הכנסתם את העדכון לאירוע חירום - פיצ׳ר מבורך וחשוב בתקופה הזוhttps://www.ynet.co.il/digital/technews/article/hyfaoldqbx
אבל צריך לחדד את הצורך - כשאני מחפש מקלט ברגע זה, המסלול שלי כבר לא חשוב
מקלט שנמצא באזור היעד לא מתאים לדרישה שלימה שאני צריך זה לבצע חיפוש למקלטים כאשר הרשימה ממוינת לפי קרבה אליי
כאילו אני מייצר מסלול חדש לגמרי
אח״כ אפשר להפוך את המקלט שבחרתי לעצירת ביניים או לנסיעה חדשה (לפי בחירה)שוב תודה

Proactive Fuel Station Suggestion
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest adding a feature that proactively recommends nearby gas stations after the user has traveled a certain distance, which can be set by the user.
During long trips, drivers may not always keep track of their fuel level or may forget to refuel in time. This can lead to inconvenient or even risky situations, especially when traveling through areas with limited fuel station availability.
By allowing users to define a distance threshold (e.g., after driving X kilometers), Waze could automatically suggest the nearest gas stations along the route. This would give drivers more control over their journey and help them avoid running out of fuel.
Such a feature would enhance trip planning, improve convenience, and contribute to a more reliable driving experience, particularly on long-distance routes.

Make the "Complex Intersection" feature to be set at node
Make the "Complex Intersection" feature to be set at node, not a each segment aproaching the "Complex intersection"
This would make the app less cluttered, as only one alert will be needed instead of several, as of now, one alert for every segment approching the interserction.

Lane-specific pothole alerts (show which lane the pothole is in)
A feature that allows users to report what lane a pothole (or other hazard) is in so that drivers can avoid hazards, vehicle damage, or bottlenecks in traffic that can happen as new vehicles approach the hazard and attempt to minimize impact.

Hola, soy de Perú, soy taxista y toda la comunidad esta insatisfecha porque ahora ya no se puede comentar las alertas, con los comentarios nos ayudabanos mucho a cualquier problema, pero ahora nos afecta su cambio, necesitamos que solucionen pronto eso.

Semi-Permanent Hazards
Allow editors to add semi-permanent hazards such as lane blockages and construction, similarly to how we can add fully-permanent hazards like speed bumps and sharp curves.

Suggestions being commented on
I've been scrolling though the most recent suggestions, and it seems like there's no response from anyone unless it's an admin saying "This is not a suggestion", can we at least get a "seen" mark or something so if our ideas are being ignored we'll at least know?
I'm not asking for a personalized comments telling the sweet mom the intricacy's of IP licensing and why we can't get cookie monster permanently, and I know you can't respond in a way that's going to satisfy every person. But just leaving them in ignorance to something that's never going to happen isn't cool.
Especially since you could easily overlook good ideas that weren't given the time of day as someone dismissed them out of hand.I've been scrolling though the most recent suggestions, and it seems like there's no response from anyone unless it's an admin saying "This is not a suggestion", can we at least get a "seen" mark or something so if our ideas are being ignored we'll at least know?

Option to Delete Waze Chats
Right now with Waze Chats we only have the option to ( clear chat/ Block person or Mute ) so even after clearing the chat only the conversation disappears but the chat window stays always there, right now there is no option to delete Waze Chats from the Chat panel that have no reply or are not relevant anymore, as we mostly use this to reach out to new editors.
it would be great if we had the option to delete the chat completely and removed it from the Chat panel. and this would help editors to keep the relevant and important chats open in the panel. not just every single chat.Thank you

Enable ANY music app to be linked to Waze
Can Waze publish an approve API for music playing app vendors to attach to Waze? I don't use Spotify or the other "approved" apps on your app. Having access to make music selection from your app is a great SAFETY benefit, not just for "branded" vendors!!!

Winter driving reports
I would love to see more reports that alert drivers of specific winter hazards such as:
"icy roads"
"snow drifts"
"blowing snow"
"low visibility"3 votes -
Please add a “Avoid this road” or “Lock current route” option during navigation.
Please add a persistent “Avoid this road” or “Lock current route” option during navigation.
If a driver repeatedly deviates from the suggested route, Waze should respect that choice instead of continually re-routing them back onto the same road. Drivers often have local or real-time safety knowledge that the algorithm cannot detect.
This would improve safety, especially on narrow roads or blind corners.

Apply search suggestion to search bar
Often when searching for an address, its already suggested in the list. However when a slight modification is needed, such as changing the house number, it is necessary to type in the full adress.
Instead I would like to ask for the functionality of applying the search result to the search bar, for being able to modify the search suggestion on the fly.3 votes -
Take one toll on route but avoid another
If there is more than one toll on a route, I would appreciate if we were able to select that we want to take one toll but avoid another.
Eg. I have two tolls on my way to work, one is $5 and saves me 15 min, the other is $6 and only saves me 5 min, so I want the route to take me through the first toll and avoid the second.
Right now Waze will only let me either take tolls or none at all

Dog Parks
Date: 01/25/2026
I'd like to suggest adding dog parks in the "parks" category. In the past it has been difficult to find dog parks, let alone a fenced in park where I can let my dogs free roam.Adding dog parks as a location would be a fantastic feature for so many travelers!

Request to Create an Official Georgian (Georgia) Waze Community
Hello Waze Team and Community,
I would like to kindly request the creation of an official Georgian (Georgia) Waze community and forum section.
Currently, there is no dedicated Georgian Waze community or local forum. As a result, Georgia does not have active local editors who can regularly review, approve, or manage map edits. This causes many map issues, delayed updates, and incorrect information to remain unresolved for a long time.
There are editors who edit the region partially or irregularly, but there is no active local Georgian editor who can coordinate improvements, support new editors, or maintain map quality consistently.
Creating an official Georgian community would:
• Help organize and support local editors
• Improve communication and coordination
• Speed up map updates and approvals
• Significantly improve map accuracy and navigation quality in GeorgiaSince a Georgian forum does not exist, I am posting this request in the global forum.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I truly believe that an official Georgian Waze community would greatly benefit both users and the platform.
Kind regards,
NiccoloHello Waze Team and Community,

Request to restore Red color for Speed and Red Light Camera pop-up banners.
Subject: Request to restore Red color for Speed and Red Light Camera pop-up banners.
Message:
I am writing to provide feedback regarding the recent change to the pop-up warning banners for speed and red light cameras. These alerts were previously Red but have recently changed to a dark gray/black color in Night/Dark mode.
I strongly urge you to revert these alerts back to Red for the following safety reasons based on driving psychology and neuroscience:
Visual Saliency (The "Pop-Out" Effect): Studies show that the human brain has a "Saliency Map" that scans for high-priority colors. Red triggers stronger gamma-band oscillations in the visual cortex than any other color, making it the most effective color for alerting a driver who is focused on the road.
Exogenous Attentional Capture: While driving, my primary focus (central vision) is on the road. A dark-colored banner blends into the interface. A Red banner, however, utilizes peripheral awareness to "capture" attention automatically. This allows the brain to recognize a hazard or alert without the driver needing to take their eyes off the road to "search" for the information.
Night Vision Safety: In dark mode, low-contrast dark banners are easily missed. Red is universally recognized as a "stop" or "danger" signal and provides the necessary contrast to ensure the driver is alerted instantly.
Restoring the red color will improve response times and overall driver safety. Thank you for considering this research-backed improvement.Subject: Request to restore Red color for Speed and Red Light Camera pop-up banners.

Subject: Restore Red Color for Speed and Red Light Camera Alert Banners
Message:
I am writing to provide feedback on the recent UI change regarding the pop-up alert banners for speed cameras and red light cameras.
In previous versions, these alerts appeared in a bright red banner, which was immediately noticeable. In the current update, the banner has changed to a dark gray/black color. While this might look "modern," it creates a significant visibility issue, especially when driving in Dark Mode or at night.
The dark banner blends into the background of the app, making it difficult to distinguish an important safety warning from other map elements at a glance. For driver safety and awareness, I strongly request that you restore the high-contrast red color for these specific enforcement alerts.Message:
