Disable automatic Update Request route reporting on higher level roads.
Under certain circumstances, Waze seems to automatically submit automatic reports - but there seem to be too many of them (big time cost for editors that process and respond to URs following up for feedback, generally no response from the "reporter" because they didn't report anything themselves).
This specific request is to disable "Incorrect route", "Incorrect turn" or other similar problems on higher-level divided roads (Motorway, Major Highway, Minor Highway). When we have roadworks, the roads authority will often set up contraflow lanes on the opposing direction's roadway. This seems to produce numerous automated reports that have no value…

off-screen RTC reporting in app
i'd like to have the ability to add an RTC from the app when i'm not centered on my current location.
for instance, i can often see a closure on a road that's not part of my route and i'd like to be able to mark it as closed but maybe once i've reached a safe stopping point. For instance if i'm on my way to work and pass a side street with a closure i'd like to mark it once i get there, but as soon as i've passed it the option is gone because the report pin disappears…

Horse Ahead
An option for horse riders to mark themselves as road users for a period of time which alerts cars that there is a ‘horse and rider ahead’. It would prevent so many accidents on country lanes

“Back” button in Reports
I noticed that when you want to report something (hazard, blocked lane, police, etc…) sometimes I may press the wrong category for what I want to report, but there’s no “Back” button, only “Cancel”. But there’s problem with cancelling, that is you lose the exact location you passed and if you report again it may be misaligned.
There should be an option for a back button to search for other categories in case you misclicked in a category that is not the one you wanted to report initially. This way, the system still holds your “original” location when you…

Bell Tower Park Community, Fort Myers, FL, 33912
Please amend the visitors entrance on the GPS from Andrea Lane to US 41. At present drivers are directed to the owner's entrance and cannot gain access. They need to be directed to the US41 entrance where they can talk to Envira Security.

Navigation improvements
I strongly suggest the developers come to Dubai and drive around with this app for a few days. You will understand that giving the driver instructions to get into the far left lane on a 9 lane highway literally 100m before having to change lanes is not only impractical, but actually dangerous. I have checked...this graphical display at the top of the screen should change no less than 1800m before the change should occur. It is a wonderful app, far ahead of Google maps, but for now I will uninstall it as it has caused me quite a few…

Simplify road closed
Marking a road closed can be simplified. Waze knows where it wants me to go, I hit the button saying closure, why am I not asked to confirm that road X is closed? I could do that, probably while trying to figure out where to go and traffic is behind me. There is no way I can figure out why waze is giving me a bunch of arrows pointing everywhere when I just said that road you want me to take is closed. Get me out of here and toward my destination, please..

text reminder to pay toll
It would be nice to have a text sent when I drive on a toll road/toll lane to remind me to pay the toll. I am often not familiar with which highways are toll roads or the ones that have toll lanes. The later is the most unclear.

Lumpkin Campround Rd S is closed at 2451 Lumpkin Campground Rd S.
Waze does not acknowledge that Lumpkin Campground Rd S is closed at 2451 Lumpkin Campground Rd S, Dawsonville GA 30534. It has been closed for two months due to construction. It is not expected to be open soon. Google shows the closure but Waze does not.

Improve route guidance
Please take your time to analize these factors;
Waze, everytime you release a new update, it doesn’t alway fix or updates one of the most important thing, which is the routing itself, another word;
Waze does not always end the route where it needs to be (it ends somewhere close),
When it comes to apartments complexes, it takes you most of the time through the exit gate instead of the main gain (just because it seeing the final address as closer to the exit, I get it but it it’s not correct),
The “fastest route” it’s not alway the safer…1 voteThanks for reaching out.

Ensure that re-routing doesn't add time to trip
I have had multiple times where I have chosen to take an alternate, parallel road rather than the one Waze wants me to go (such as I-295 in NJ versus NJ Turnpike, or I-95 Express Lane vs. I-95 in Maryland). In these instances, rather than direct me to the next interchange to continue on the planned route from an upcoming access point, it wanted me to double back and reverse course to the original access point, which would've added 20 minutes to my trip, when just continuing on the alternate route would have only changed ETA by 0-1 minute.

On Android the "report an issue" isn't available
I tried to report a freeway entrance closure, but the "tapping of arrows" wasn't working.. when i tried to do it.
After finding how to report the issue.. i found that the "report an issue" option wasn't an option in settings as described in the response to the Waze support email i sent.

Popup
Hazards and speed camera pop-ups are blocking/obscuring the lane guidance in Android Auto. Please redesign and make it smaller or move it somewhere else. It's dangerous as drivers have to keep dismissing and closing the dialogue pop-up

Entrance to GWB from Riverside Dr South in NYC, dangerous directions.
This entrance puts you in the left lanes of 6 lanes of ferocious traffic. Waze always recommends the Lower Level, which is the rightmost 2 lanes, and would require crossing several lanes of traffic in a very short distance - very dangerous. Waze should recommend the Upper Level which is directly ahead and requires no lane change. People not familiar with the area may attempt to follow the Lower Level directions which would lead to hazardous driving.

Would be handy to add hazards and notes on an area you've seen that day not current location
For instance driving from A47 to Brundall in Norfolk, along Postwick Lane there is a tree 1ft into the road. I knocked my wingmirror off there and so have others as people have passed oncoming vehicles. I saw many glass wingmirrors.
I've accidentally put this onto Theobald road Norwich.. could this be moved please to opposite Brundall Marina. I'd like to be able to warn others of this without having to be sat there in my car. Can you add hazards to alternative locations please that would be useful.

Street names covering the turn on the road
When the car needs to turn, the street name goes over the turning or corner line. You then can't see which turning you need to take if multiple roads you could turn down or a lane to get into. This is since an update early in 2025
