  1. Ajouter un menu rapide sur les dangers

    Suggestion :
    Ajouter 3 ou 4 accès rapide directement sur écran de navigation dans un angle pour signaler les dangers les plus fréquents :
    Véhicule sur le bas côté
    Circulation dense
    Contrôle
    Danger sur la route

    Car aller dans le navigateur des alertes peut être dangereux en roulant (il y a 3 ou 4 clics à faire) et on privilégie la conduite et du coup ne rien signaler.
    Cela permettrait de signaler les 4 dangers principaux très rapidement sans se mettre en danger vis à vis de la conduite

  2. Eco-drive helper

    For eco-drive enthusiasts, you could create a function that shows upcoming speed limits with an adjustable distance. For example, I would like to be informed about speed limits approximately 400 meters in advance, so I can deactivate the cruise control and let the car coast to the correct speed for the upcoming limit. For EVs, this would simultaneously involve regenerative braking, saving me fuel and brake pads. The environment would be cleaner, etc. Adaptive notification would be an advanced solution. It would use the g-sensor to understand my inertia and the speed difference from upcoming speed limits.

  3. Fix the phone overheating issue

    Let me explain the background on this. I've been happily using Waze with AA in my car for several years. All of a sudden, mid Feb 2024, my phone is overheating, sometimes before I even leave my driveway! I added a utility to my phone to troubleshoot and what I discovered is atrocious. This started right around Feb 19th. Whenever I have Waze running in the car, Google Maps is also running in background. If I use Google Maps to navigate, the phone doesn't overheat and Waze doesn't open either. I am already in the Beta group for Android Auto,…

  4. Improved Automatic Re-Routing for Traffic Congestion in Waze

    We would like to propose an enhancement to Waze's automatic re-routing feature to provide users with greater control and flexibility when navigating around traffic congestion.

    Currently, Waze offers basic re-routing, but it lacks the ability to:

    Prioritize surface streets or alternate highways/freeways: This would be particularly valuable for users who prefer avoiding congested highways altogether, even if it means a slightly longer route.

    Define granular re-routing preferences: A binary on/off toggle is limiting. We propose options similar to existing route preferences (fastest/shortest) that allow users to:

    Set time windows for re-routing: For example, automatically re-route during known rush hour periods.

  5. Contact Sync & Automatic Call Trigger Based on Destination Arrival

    Feature Proposal for Waze
    Contact Sync & Automatic Call Trigger Based on Destination Arrival
    Background & Problem
    Many drivers frequently navigate to destinations that are the home addresses of people they know (friends, family members, clients). Upon arrival, drivers often need to:
    Search for the contact on their phone
    Manually place a call
    Or send a message to notify arrival
    These actions are often performed while driving or during short stops and lead to:
    Dangerous distractions
    Unnecessary time loss
    A fragmented arrival experience within the navigation flow
    Proposed Solution
    A built-in Waze feature that enables smart synchronization between contacts and…

  6. user defined button

    Have a couple of user defined buttons on the main screen, so that the user can define what these are for, for their most used functions - my car uses a steering wheel control to navigate around Waze, so to report a pothole (there are many where I live), I have to go down about 4 levels (I think from memory) to get to the pothole button - on steering wheel navigation, that can take 10 seconds, and at 60mph, I'm already around 900 feet away from the hazard. Having the option to define a button (or ideally 2) so…

  8. Latest version Release 4.94.0.3 Doesn't Work Correctly on Non-Touchscreen Android Auto

    This version requires you to use the central rocker controller to switch to the side menu.
    Once in navigation, the back up button brings up the command to hit it again to stop navigation, rather than backing up to the Android Auto menu.
    You are stuck in Waze unless you move hands from steering wheel.
    You should be able to switch to the side Android Auto menu to bring up another app whilst still in navigation and by using the steering wheel buttons like before - exit navigation should be by selecting the X button.
    Speed limit alert also gone.…

  9. Problem with newest update

    Hello.
    I would like to give some feedback regarding latest Android auto update:
    New ui is worse than old one. First way old speedometer worked was better (it was smaller and it only showed speed limit when going above the limit (and showed points around the circle as you approached speed limit). That was much better than current one.
    Second thing is that new Drive now feature and other text messages on app are too big and take up too much screen from the map.
    Also, forcing dark mode for messages is not a great ux choice since it can…

  10. Fix Road Closure selecting

    I am a traffic controller and I try to accurately report what roads are closed for the safety of the workers and convenience of others. Most the time I can't even report the street that's closed as the app won't let me select them. It will only do main roads or the roads that are next to the road I want to select. You also have to physically be on the road to select them which is another issue as I can't really leave my post to walk to each road to select them. It's very frustrating. If I could…

  11. Pop-up banners hijack CarPlay functionality

    Trying again...

    Navigation pop-up banners hijack the functionality of other CarPlay apps. Whenever a Waze banner pops up, it overrides the ability to select any other function in CarPlay. It complicates the simplicity & minimal distraction for which CarPlay is designed. My car has a joystick knob to scroll through & select a CarPlay function, & there is no way to stop these banners from popping up. Turning the knob a click, or selecting one of the console buttons hides the banner for a fraction of a second, but the banner keeps incessantly popping up. When I move my cursor…

  12. Nuevas opciones

    Hola equipo de Waze,
    Quiero hacerles una sugerencia respecto a las opciones de reporte en carretera. Actualmente, cuando los usuarios queremos señalar la presencia de autoridades, solo aparece la categoría de “policía”, pero en países como Colombia también existen los agentes de tránsito, que cumplen funciones distintas y cuya presencia es igualmente importante para los conductores.

    Considero que sería muy útil para la comunidad de Waze que se incluya una opción específica llamada “agente de tránsito”, de manera que los usuarios podamos diferenciar entre ambas autoridades. Esto no solo aportaría mayor precisión en la información compartida, sino que también fortalecería…

    Dear Waze.. where do you get off? Taking away helicopter take was like taking away freedom from us Americans. How dare you take away that sweet beautiful helicopter tank of mine. Do you know what grinds my gears ways you and your absurd obsession with taking control of my GPS in map needs. Take this as an act of aggression and war will follow. Mess with the bull ha ha you’re about to find out where these horns can go and let me tell your partner I don’t think you’re gonna enjoy it very much. It doesn’t have to be…

  15. Rajouter 20 secondes pour valider ou non la presence des signalements ( controle, objets, véhicule arrêté...) pas le temps de bien regarder.

    Pouvez-vous rajouter du temps pour valider ou non la présence d'un événement. Une bonne vingtaine de secondes serait vraiment bien.

  17. 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…
