  2. I have several ideas

    First I have been through 2 permanent speed cameras Waze did not warn me about. Although it might say turn in 300 metres, I have no conception of distance and if a few streets are close I don’t know which one and It needs to tell you to turn here about 2 secs earlier then it does I miss streets and need to be in other lanes to turn esp. in the city where there are lots of one way streets and turn only lanes. I’m on iPhone and I hate that it turns off Siri google DOES NOT work…

  3. Car Play Addition

    Greetings,
    I’ve been using the Waze App on my phone for years. I recently started using Waze through Apple Car Play in my new vehicle.
    While I’m enjoying it, I am missing one feature that is on my phone app.
    That feature is being able to see the “turn by turn” directions.
    All I’m able to see on the Car Play version is the next turn.
    I’ve become used to being able to look ahead and see where Waze is sending me.
    While I can pull out my phone a see the “turn by turn” directions, that defeats the safety…

  4. police car detection

    scenario,
    you are driving to work every day, so you obviously don't need a navigation app open to show you the way, but you also want to be aware of police cars.

    I was going to work one time and as soon as I plugged my phone into my car, google maps gave me a notification something like "work is 15 mins drive" which means it knows roughly when I leave for work and it is sure its work cause its the same time always.

    so idea is, even when the user isn't using the app, Waze or google knows…

  5. Caravan Mode / Follow Me Mode

    I've been thinking in a new mode for Wazers... I've been driving with family along the road in different vehicles, not once we've been able to keep the same speed or pace and we end loosing sight of where the vehicles are. In Mexico safety its a very important matter, and everytime we are not able to see where the other cars that are driving with us we call them or text them to see if everything is fine. I imagine a Caravan Mode in which multiple Waze accounts are linked for a trip and you can watch the vehicles…

  6. Please give back functionality to have Map when connected to Android Auto

    Google who owns Android Auto and Waze should allow the user to decide preference for map or directions when connected to Android Auto. Given many factors one or the other could be a lot safer so the new way of forced directions is Not for safety. Need to place a setting to choice or give back functionality. The workaround of reverting back to previous version and Never updated an app is ridiculous cause could miss out on many good features introduced. Come on Google don't be like Apple and dictate what we can do... That is anti Android.

    Plus it…

  7. Add "Disabled Vehicle" to Windows Phone version

    I have an Android phone at work, and a Windows Phone at home. I use Waze on both as a single user. I was navigating home on Sunday when I watched a vehicle become disabled next to me at a traffic light. Being the good Wazer that I am, I immediately opened my Waze app and pressed on the "REPORT" icon. On my work (Android) phone under "HAZARD", there is an option to identify "Vehicle Stopped". On my Home (Windows) phone version, that option is completing missing. How did this get left off???? Could someone at Waze add it…

  8. Use Heneral Luna's voice for philippine navigation

    Heneral Luna a character played by John Arcilla is one of the most watched films in history with 31M views in youtube. This will be a good grounding for the app and its marketplace should it be launched in the country :)

  11. Connecting collaborating WAZE with Emergency WA App - Perth Western Australia

    Department of Fire and Emergency in Western Australia (Australia) have just launched their Emergency WA app which provides information relating to incidents, hazards or emergencies. This includes alerts ranging from advice through to Emergency Warning for fire, flood, hazards which could require community to take certain steps. Emergency WA places a geo-fence for the affected area. Could WAZE consider connecting/collaborating with EMERGENCY WA App to enable users of WAZE to be informed during their travel, they are about to enter into an area so they could be better informed whether to proceed or take an alternative route or reconsider need…

  12. Need A View Shared Drive Option While Using CarPlay

    The green-ish “View Shared Drive” button that normally appears on the right side of the screen does not appear while connected to Apple CarPlay. Currently, the only way to view a drive that has been shared with you is to disconnect from CarPlay, which is very frustrating. I am on a road trip with family in which we are driving two separate vehicles, and it would be very useful to be able to view a shared drive on my CarPlay screen to see where the rest of the family is and what their ETA is.

    And while we’re at it,…

  13. Fix “add a stop”

    This isn’t a new idea, just a quality of life update that needs to happen. Please fix the add a stop search feature that will not just look for any option fitting the search description but the closest on the route and display or notify how much time is added to the trip. If I am in a new area and I am looking for a particular food stop or something, say srarbucks for this example, every stratbucks in the usa comes up in the search but they aren’t sorted by the closest on the route but rather anything any…

  14. Waze CarPlay glitch

    When navigating in the background on Waze via Apple CarPlay, and trying to change music on Spotify in CarPlay, if I approach a turn, Waze starts popping up prompting me to return to Waze and see the map. However, when it's a simple instruction like "turn right ahead," I will try to minimize the navigation without viewing the map so I can continue selecting music. But the pop up WILL NOT STOP until I click it and go back to Waze to see the map - there is literally no way to ignore the navigational pop ups when trying to…

  16. Let kids download Waze!!

    Why can't my 9 year old daughter download Waze?? She switched to Android and now it says this app is not available for kids to download now. It's for EVERYONE so why can't she download it???

  17. Feedback and Feature Suggestion for Improved Map Interaction

    I wanted to share some observations and a suggestion that could enhance the user experience when searching for locations with multiple branches, like Safeway.

    I noticed that Apple Maps stands out by showing the user’s current location in relation to multiple search results on the map, which helps give a quick visual understanding of where you are and where you’re headed. However, it currently lacks the ability to tap directly on a location pin on the map to begin navigation. Instead, users must choose from the text list, which can be confusing if you’re unsure of the exact address or…

  18. Car Play

    responding to krzycholub on 09.01.2023 01:25 PM:

    Yesterday afternoon was a terrible day for traffic in the NY/NJ area. Waze had routed me to use Challenger Road and local roads to get from the NJTPKE North to 46E toward the GWB. The left turn to 46 E was blocked by multiple police cars. Considering that I had spent 10-15 minutes following directions only to be re-routed again, I wanted to let someone know. I couldn’t locate a quick way on the app (when I am using the Apple Car Play screen) to indicate that routing was no longer allowed. It…

  20. Petrol station prices

    I use this app every day http://itunes.apple.com/it/app/prezzi-benzina/id373044013?mt=8 to find a the best petrol station in terms of price.
    From my point of view, this app should be integrated in Waze.
