Add a “RETURN TO START POINT” option that will guide users back to the point in which they started.
Add a “RETURN TO START POINT” option that will guide users back to the point in which they started.
I dropped a friend off at work during my first visit to Detroit, so I could use her car for the day. I used Waze to navigate away from her job, but her phone doesn’t work in
the office and I have no way of contacting her to get the address to her job. It would be great to just go into Waze and select “RETURN TO START POINT” and have Waze navigate me back seamlessly! This would be a Fanta add to the Waze app!Add a “RETURN TO START POINT” option that will guide users back to the point in which they started.

Add ability to choose buttons on map
Please add the option to choose which buttons appear on the map view. If all available buttons are not chosen, there should be 1 button to view a pull down to chose one of the hidden button temporarily.

New UI prevents sleep after starting a drive
Sleep button used to be accessible via the bottom left menu. Now it’s inside the top right new UI which is not on screen (not clickable) when a drive is started…
The UI changes need to be better tested for usability because this is frustrating and not needed…3 votes -
Static Zoom Level
It's very distracting as a driver to have the map constantly zooming in and out every time you change speed, or approach/depart an intersection. When a user change the zoom level, it's because that's where they want it.
There should be a toggle that sets the map to follow your location, but maintain the zoom level to wherever the user manually sets it.
It should also no longer follow your location if the entire route is on screen.

"Favorite" Hazard Button on Main Screen
ADD single-push hazard button on main screen that activates "Vehicle Stopped on Shoulder Ahead," which has to be the NO. 1 hazard all drivers face and encounter.
Pressing 5 buttons to alert others of a "Vehicle Stopped on Shoulder Ahead" is a hazard itself. Now, we click the "Alert" button, then we click the "Hazard" button, then we click the "Shoulder" button, then we click the "Vehicle Stopped" button, then we click the "Send" button.
On my bi-weekly 3-hour trips, I go through that routine 20 times per trip. Clicking 5 buttons for ANYTHING discourages people from using that thing.
Place one button above the "Alert" button that is strictly for "Vehicle Stopped on Shoulder Ahead." Far more people will be engaged.

Camera
In Holland a “traject controle” is a measurement of average speed between two or more cameras. You use it as warning for camera in next few km. That would be a “ controle traject “.

Change “Work” label
You have the option of setting Home & Work locations. However, many of us work from home and could use the Work option for a second significant location (school, partner house, etc). Obviously we can still use this feature, but it’d be nice to be able to adjust the label accordingly so it reflect accurately!

Average speed zone label covers up the speed limit
When you enter an average speed zone, the green bar on the left appears. Also a label appears at the bottom showing what distance the zone covers. Annoyingly this label covers up the current speed limit badge, so you can't see what the limit is until the label disappears or moves up far enough.

Save a route, not just a destination.
Save a route, not just a destination. We have a new driver in our house and we'd like to save specific routes for her to follow. We realize this could impact the time to destination but would be acceptable in certain situations

route optimiser
I know there are websites that already offer this but would like to see on waze where I can add a series of addresses and waze would suggest the best route with the possibility of adding addresses after.
for example if I want to add hotels or additional breaks3 votes -
Visualización de nombres de calles
En navegación "sin destino" no se ven nombres de todas las calles, al menos se debe garantizar, saber por dónde se está circulando y las calles que se van a cruzar... mayormente no se ven. Depende la pantalla del teléfono celular. Así como también alturas de avenidas (numeración)

Knowing the direction of the closure
Hi>
Why isn't the closure displayed in the app the same way it is on the Waze map editor?
We often encounter misleading reports where users believe the entire street is closed.
I believe it would be beneficial to add small arrows to the traffic closure, similar to those in the map editor, to indicate the direction of the closure.thanks!
3 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Planned trips issue
Hello, Since one of the last updates Waze is not saving the planned trips when I close the app. This wasn’t an issue in the past, but it is now. It is really annoying. I miss the opportunity that I could plan and save all my trips for a week ahead. Can you please fix this problem? Thank you!

Drive History to include milage data on each trip
It would be so very useful to have the mileage total featured on each drive within the “Drive History” section.
It would be the perfect solution for someone like me logging miles for work and doing my already boring accounts.
PLEASE 🙏

Police location feature
How about adding a police location feature where travelers may indicate that a police car is traveling on the road with the person that spots them?

"Still There" should have a "Close Window" option
When the "Still There" window pops up in Apple CarPlay, I frequently click the button just to make the window go away which results in sending the message that the hazard is still there even if it's not. It would be helpful if the default was "Close Window".

in app volume control not helpful
We used to be able to adjust the volume with the iphone buttons, but it now seems to force us to go into the app to do this. This is one of the worst changes and has me thinking about leaving the app. When driving I frequently need to adjust the volume (louder car noise on the Hwy, turning radio up, etc), I don’t want to have to navigate in the app to do this while driving.

Welcome to XYZ state!
While traveling on the Interstate welcome me to a new state instead of telling me to continue on interstate you are already on! Usually there are no exit anyway because you are crossing a bridge.
