Info Box and button placement: bottom / top / left / right
Currently, all info and buttons show up at the bottom of the screen.
But I placed the iPhone in the car, where I cannot see this bottom area. It would be nice if there were an option to place this info and the buttons on other parts of the screen where they are more visible (and reachable) for me.

Truck map
Hi Waze. It would be a great idea if you could make maps for Trucks. Bridge height, bridge weight restrictions , length restrictions. Truck stops are not priority but would be nice to have. I use car play in my 40t truck with Waze but I use tom tom too, but I don’t Like TomTom. Sadly I have no choice but to use it 😂

Animal Crossing Hazard
I tend to be on the road often and absolutely love using Waze whenever I need a GPS. As someone on the road often, I tend to notice there are many times that there are sudden animal crossings or a lost pet on the side of the road. This does tend to be on highways where many people are going very fast and are not as careful with their driving.
I recently thought of the idea- I think Waze should include a button, under the hazard category where we could press some form of “careful animal crossing” button to warn other drivers there may be a sudden animal crossing or pet walking the side of road. This would alert other drivers, allowing them to drive with more caution to protect themselves as well as the animal.
I wanted to share this idea and see if it could be implemented in the app. I hope this could work.

Suggestions to Improve Waze User Experience
Dear Waze Team,
My name is Fabio Martinez Coello, and I am a Colombian user who relies on your application on a daily basis. I would like to thank you for the great service you provide, which has become an essential tool for navigation.
Based on my daily experience, I would like to share some suggestions that could help improve the application and make it even more user-friendly:
1. Always display the programmed destination address:
It would be very helpful if the selected destination address remains constantly visible. Sometimes, due to typing errors or accidental input, an incorrect address is entered. Having the address always visible would allow users to quickly verify and correct it before reaching an unintended destination.
2. Avoid mixing languages in the interface:
When the application is set to English, some terms still appear in Spanish (such as “calzada,” “calle,” “sur,” “norte,” “oriente,” “occidente”). For a better user experience, the app should maintain consistency and avoid mixing languages.
3. Allow multiple stops in a route:
Currently, it is not possible to program multiple stops efficiently. It would be very useful to allow users to add several stops (ideally up to 10) within a single route.
4. Different colors for route segments:
When multiple stops are added, it would help to display the first segment in the current blue color and the remaining segments in different colors. This would reduce confusion and improve route visualization.
5. Ability to review each programmed stop:
Users should be able to click on any programmed stop and verify its exact address. This would help ensure that all destinations are correct before and during the trip.
I hope these suggestions are helpful and can be considered in future updates. Thank you for your continuous efforts to improve the application.
Kind regards,

Alternativní trasy/ Display distance difference for alternative routes
Poprosím u alternativních tras kromě času zobrazovat i kilometry:
Prakticky by stačila informace +4 min (barvou červenou) a -12 km (barvou zelenou).
jedná se o jasnou a rychlou informací. Jasná informace - pojedu déle, ale kratší trasou než je ta svájící navolená.
moc by mi to pomohlo. Děkuji LiHPlease display the distance difference alongside the time for alternative routes.
A simple indicator like "+4 min" (red) and "-12 km" (green) would provide instant clarity. It would allow drivers to quickly see if an alternative route is longer in time but shorter in distance compared to the current one. This would be a very helpful feature for better decision-making.
Thank you, LiH

Addition of a "Probationary License
Bonjour
Serait-il possible d'ajouter une option dans les paramètres de navigation permettant de sélectionner un profil 'Jeune Permis / Permis Probatoire' ?
Une fois activée, l'application ajusterait automatiquement l'affichage des limitations de vitesse et les alertes sonores selon la législation en vigueur. Par exemple, en France, les seuils passeraient de 130 à 110 km/h, de 110 à 100 km/h et de 90 à 80 km/h.
L'idéal serait que cette option soit adaptative : les seuils de réduction de vitesse devraient s'ajuster automatiquement en fonction de la réglementation spécifique de chaque pays (par exemple, des limitations différentes en France, en Italie ou en Espagne pour les novices), afin d'offrir une aide personnalisée et légale partout dans le monde. Cela permettrait aux nouveaux conducteurs de respecter la loi sans confusion et d'améliorer la sécurité routière globale.
English
Could you add a toggle in the navigation settings for a 'Probationary / Novice Driver' profile?
When enabled, the app would automatically adjust speed limit displays and alerts based on local regulations for new drivers. For instance, in France, limits would drop from 130 to 110 km/h, 110 to 100 km/h, and 90 to 80 km/h.
The ideal solution would be for this feature to be adaptive: speed reduction thresholds should automatically adjust based on each country's specific regulations for novice drivers (e.g., different limits in France, Italy, or Spain). This would ensure personalized and legally compliant guidance worldwide, helping new drivers stay compliant with the law and avoid accidental speeding tickets during their probationary period.

Sarebbe possibile aggiungere un'opzione nelle impostazioni di navigazione per selezionare il profilo 'Neopatentato'?Una volta attivata, l'app dovrebbe regolare automaticamente la visualizzazione dei limiti di velocità e gli avvisi acustici in base alle normative vigenti. Ad esempio, in Francia, i limiti passerebbero da 130 a 110 km/h, da 110 a 100 km/h e da 90 a 80 km/h.
L'ideale sarebbe che questa funzione fosse adattiva: le soglie di riduzione della velocità dovrebbero regolarsi automaticamente in base alle normative specifiche di ogni paese per i neopatentati (ad esempio, limiti diversi in Francia, Italia o Spagna), garantendo un'assistenza personalizzata e conforme alla legge in tutto il mondo. Questa funzione aiuterebbe i nuovi conducenti a rispettare la legge senza confusione e a migliorare la sicurezza stradale globale.

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

Speed Bump Reporting Feature
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest adding an option for users to report speed bumps within the hazard reporting feature.
In many areas, speed bumps are not clearly marked or are placed unexpectedly, which can lead to sudden braking and potential safety risks, especially for drivers who are unfamiliar with the route.
By allowing users to flag speed bumps, Waze could help improve driver awareness, reduce unexpected slowdowns, and contribute to a safer and more comfortable driving experience.

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.

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.

In dual screen mode show in main screen the whole route, not just mirror current view
In dual screen mode (main screen and small screen above steering wheel) show on main screen the whole journey from current position to the destination (the same as Google Maps do). Right now main screen only mirror small view in a different scale.
I described it here with some photos:
